Fireside Chat: Navigating AI in Design & Career

📍 Baseline Community, Dublin 8 | Saturday, 17th October 2026 | 🕓 3:00 PM – 7:00 PM

AI is moving fast–and the constant stream of new tools, hype, and career questions can feel overwhelming. At this edition of DesignBrew, we’re cutting through the noise with an unscripted, transparent conversation on how AI is truly changing the daily work of designers.
Whether you're just starting out or years into your career, this one's for you.

Why attend?

• Hear real stories: panelists share what's actually worked (and what hasn't) as they've adjusted their own careers around AI
• Join the conversation: an open seat on the panel means your questions can shape the discussion directly
• Leave with something useful: a short list of tools and courses people in the industry genuinely rate
• Ask us anything: bring your career questions, pivots, or skill gaps, and get honest answers instead of generic advice

• 3:00 PM – Doors Open & Coffee
