Last September, "How did you AI today?" was Friends of Figma Wellington's biggest event yet: seven lightning talks, seven completely different takes on how AI was turning up in people's work. Now a year on in 2026, AI's moved faster than any of us expected, so we're doing a check-in. 

Join Friends of Figma Wellington for "How did you AI this year?", an evening of short, sharp lightning talks from real people across Wellington's design, product, and creative community. No experts required, just real experience. We're also hoping to hear from a few of last year's speakers on how things have shifted for them over the past 12 months.

Speakers are still being announced, so watch this space and our LinkedIn page.

As always, Friends of Figma Wellington isn't just about the software. Figma's part of our shared world. What matters is the craft, the culture, and the community around it. You don't have to be a designer, and you don't need to be across the latest AI tools. Just bring your curiosity.
