Service Design is gaining traction in Dallas. Large companies and consultancies like Capital One and Slalom are actively building Service Design practices and evangelizing the tools and methods to the greater design community through meetups, conference sessions and client work. Several local schools and universities are adding Service Design classes to their UX, Design and Business Strategy programs.

We are seeking to help create new connections and build awareness of the evolving Service Design discipline. We want to foster a Service design community where designers can meet each other, whether UX designers, developers, product managers, business analysts, organizational leaders or if just simply design and business students want to know more about Service Design.
