Midwestux, 21 E Main Street, Columbus, OH (2026)

Launched in 2011, the conference grew from a grassroots idea into a cross-disciplinary gathering known for its approachable spirit and authentic connections. We created MidwestUX to make design education more accessible — offering the depth and inspiration of our industry's largest national and international conferences without the financial barriers. Each year, MidwestUX brought together designer

s, researchers, developers, strategists, and community members to share ideas, spark collaborations, and support one another’s growth. Compelling talks blended with a casual, welcoming atmosphere where conversations flowed long after sessions ended — and often continued from year to year. After nearly a decade of events and community building, we wrapped up the conference in 2021. Though the events have ended, the relationships, knowledge, and creative energy live on through everyone who took part. To the community members, speakers and workshop leaders, each city chair and co-chair, our many volunteers, and to our co-founders -- thank you for helping to shape this journey! May our collective paths continue to cross as the years roll on. MidwestUX was co-founded by: Erik Dahl, Brandon Stephens, Pam Haaser, Denise Chroninger-Philipsen, Lindsay Ramhoff, and Imran Riaz.

As we step back into our “every-day roles” we’re fondly looking back at a weekend filled with learnings, insights, and community.

We hope you took away bits and pieces from each of those - but especially community. The goal of MWUX is to build and foster the UX community - we hope you made a few new connections and friendships while in Grand Rapids & we look forward to nurturing those - and creating new ones - in Columbus next year.

See you at MWUX 2020.

In 2010, the founders of Midwest UX set forth the vision and core values for a conference – many of their inspirations were born out of personal experiences with the good (and bad) found in experiences at local, regional, and national conferences.

They wanted to create a community rich in relationships and creativity with an authentic, cross-discipline, and grassroots feel. And they wanted it to be affordable and approachable designers, thought leaders, tinkerers, and professionals.

The inaugural event took place in downtown Columbus, Ohio, and since that event, Midwest UX has filled with compelling talks, innovative discussions, and engaging conversations – on-stage and off-stage. Through it all, MWUX continues to attract the most spectacular attendees, presenters, and sponsors.

We are excited to announce the Host City for the 2020 MWUX Conference is COLUMBUS, OHIO.

Information and tickets will start to populate onto the website at midwestux.com in the coming weeks.
