*	UXGraz finally has an own meetup group. Currently, you can find it via https://www.meetup.com/UXGrazCommunity/ but we are trying to change that to UXGraz.


*	We will start a YouTube Channel were you can find the recordings of our meetups. This will take some time, but you can subscribe already (as soon as we got 100 subscribers, we can change the youtube url to /uxgraz 😉 )
Here’s the link to our channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCpmSBO12QEh1BTs49iQDb2Q


*	The first local meetup took place on July 30th at „Die Scherbe“. Thanks to Konny for organizing and everyone who joined us at the Books’n’Beer. It was a great event and we can’t wait fort he next one coming up in September!
