The UX Conference that Connects Ideas, People & Purpose
Hosted near Washington DC, UXCON is more than a UX conference—it’s a global movement where design meets purpose and professionals build real, lasting UX connections.
What Makes UXCON One of the Best UX Conferences?
We stand apart through our unwavering focus on Inspiration and Connection. At UXCON, we don’t just share knowledge—we light creative sparks and cultivate genuine UX connections that continue long after the conference ends.
Whether you’ve attended other UX design conferences or are new to the scene, UXCON is a welcoming space where everyone—from researchers to product designers—feels seen, heard, and inspired.
From a Global Idea to a Groundbreaking UX Design Conference in DC
Back in 2018, we had a vision: to create a space where UX professionals at every stage could learn, collaborate, and grow. That vision became UXCON.
What started as a few virtual UX meetings has since grown into a full-blown, internationally respected UX conference—drawing attendees from over +100 countries.
Now, UXCON is taking things to the next level, welcoming hundreds of professionals to a venue just minutes from Washington DC. Through our programming, we help people sharpen their craft, expand their network, and walk away with lasting UX connections.

See what attendees had to say about the event
The experience I had there will be cherished forever. As an introverted individual, I often find it challenging to step out of my comfort zone and engage in networking. However, attending UXCON25 provided me with the opportunity to connect with others, which helped me overcome my introverted tendencies and explore new possibilities.

I really felt refreshed after UXCON'25 last week, and I'm glad I made the trek to DC. It was inspiring to hear about other UXers' research projects and the types of teams they were collaborating with. But it was also such an empathetic atmosphere.

The conversations still echo. The ideas still spark. The community still grows. UXCON25 wasn’t just an event, it was a movement that reminded us why we design, who we design for, and how we can shape what’s next.

Learned a lot at UXCON: there are as many ways to get into UX as there are UX practitioners and in the end the technology may change, but it's all about the human experience.

I am attending UXCON25 taking place in Maryland, USA. Absolutely loved Jeremy Miller’s talk, made me feel a little bit less anxious about the challenges of being a designer.
