In many teams across Dubai and the UAE, research still isn’t a given. Sometimes it’s not done at all. Sometimes it’s done quickly by product managers or founders. Sometimes designers are expected to focus purely on delivery. And even when research *does* happen… It often struggles to influence decisions. Insights get lost. Teams move forward without clarity. So the question isn’t just how to do more research. It’s what actually makes research matter. This **[HCD UAE Meetup](https://www.hcd.ae/ "https://www.hcd.ae/")** explores what needs to change. From **research craft** to **ResearchOps** to **AI**, we’ll unpack the real gap between insight and impact through a live panel discussion. Expect honest perspectives, practical experiences, and an open conversation with the community. This session is co-hosted with the [Dubai User Experience Research (UXR) community](https://www.meetup.com/dubai-user-research/ "https://www.meetup.com/dubai-user-research/"), bringing together designers, researchers, and product teams in the same room to share perspectives and learn from each other. Stay tuned as we reveal the panel over the coming weeks. The session will be hosted by [Jonathan Steingiesser](https://www.steingiesser.design/ "https://www.steingiesser.design/"), who has worked across design, research, and innovation, including as Principal Design Researcher at MYOB in Australia. If you work in design, research, product, or leadership and have ever wondered why research doesn’t always land, this conversation is for you. 📍 Building A5, Digital Park, Dubai Silicon Oasis 🗓 Thursday, 21 May ⏰ 6.30PM ## Drinks Join us after for drinks at the Radisson Red rooftop pool. ## Hosted by **Human Centred Design UAE Meetup** ## Venue Partner **Dtec – Dubai Technology Entrepreneur Campus** One of the largest tech startup campuses in the region. ## Sponsor Proudly supported by **aspexx.** ## Join Us Whether you are a designer, researcher, product manager, founder, or simply curious about the future of design, this will be a fantastic evening of learning, conversation, and connection.

Through intuitive painting, free exploration of colors, shapes, and patterns, you’ll experience the restorative benefits of creative play—reducing stress, quieting the mind, and reconnecting with your natural sense of curiosity and joy. There’s no right or wrong outcome here; the process matters more than the result.

Whether you’re seeking relaxation, emotional release, or simply a fun and meaningful way to connect, this session offers a gentle reset for both mind and spirit. Come as you are. Play freely. Leave lighter, inspired, and creatively nourished. ✨ Fee - Aed 40 Payment linked below: https://pay.ziina.com/annuevents/N4CHAj4XNr

**Some basics to start** Women we are going to introduce this, we may do a women-only version, but generally we are telling women instead of women-only, just do tag a person into the event. We are releasing a simple web version to test this. Can women be early adopters? [https://chat.whatsapp.com/EaFzeakk5qn3RQGIcnTltA?mode=gi_t](https://chat.whatsapp.com/EaFzeakk5qn3RQGIcnTltA?mode=gi_t) **Important** we are seeing early event mostly women are selected, which means you will show up to an event where women are in majority. women set up your profile here, if you want mostly women at the event then just tag other women. [https://eseek.app](https://eseek.app) 📩 Invite System (Tag-A-Person in) Events are shared through a “tag a person” invite system. Only tagged users receive event details. 🎟️ Arrival Check-In On the night of the event, users press a Check-In button when they arrive. Everyone who checks in is added to a live attendee list. 👥 Friend Matching After check-in, each person is automatically assigned 1–3 potential friends from the attendee list. 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Personal Board Posting Users post on their personal board: 👗 What they’re wearing 📍 Where they are sitting/located in the venue 🔍 Find & Connect Assigned matches can view posts to: Identify each other Find each other in real life Form groups naturally ⚖️ Self-Regulated Attendance System No host is required. Access is controlled through tagging and invites. ♀️ Gender Balance Mechanism Women are encouraged to confidently tag other women. This helps increase female participation and maintain a balanced (or women-majority) ratio. 📱 MVP Mobile Test The concept is being built as a simple mobile version for initial testing. 🚫 No-Host Reality Check Free events where a host is expected to show up and spend all their time organizing and managing large groups of idiots is not something we are supporting - if you want free - this is what you get, I suggest you embrace it.
