Designing Together: Building Quality Through Collaboration
📍 GetYourGuide office, Stampfenbachstrasse 48, 8006 Zürich
🗓️ Wednesday, November 19, 2025 — from 6:00 PM onwards

Collaboration is where great design starts. Join us for our next Friends of Figma Zurich meetup, this time hosted by our friends at GetYourGuide - organized together with Craig Johnson, Senior UX Manager and Bel Merens, Employer Brand at GetYourGuide.

We’ll spend the evening exploring how design and engineering teams collaborate to build quality experiences at scale. Expect inspiring talks, honest insights, and plenty of time to chat over snacks and drinks. 🍻

Through a mix of talks and an open discussion, GetYourGuide’s design and engineering teams will share how they use Figma and FigJam to bridge disciplines, align on vision, and ensure quality remains consistent from idea to implementation.

✨ Talks & Speakers:
Joseph El Mallah, Senior iOS Engineer @ GetYourGuide
FigJam for Quality Control – How shared FigJam spaces help engineers structure feedback, refine implementation, and keep quality consistent across builds.
