Remember a few years ago (5 actually now) when we kicked off The UX-Men – a UX-themed series of meetups? Well, we are finally back with a new event next week to get startups to look closer at UX and UI as Hong Kong drives design thinking into the cold hearts of HK-based corporates.

The idea for this is to start more dialogue between the UX community and the startup community and StartupsHK co-founders Casey Lau and Gene Soo are coming out for this one alongside the IXDA and UXD.

So in light of the Startmeup Festival next week across Hong Kong we thought we’d contribute this awesome event to get startups discussing this important concept – its free at Garage Society and all you have to do is REGISTER HERE.
