WRAP 25 : Spectrum Tokyo End-of-Year Meetup

日本語のご案内はこちら

About This Event

At Spectrum Tokyo Meetup, we aim to gather people from various professions, not limited to designers, to listen to lightning talks about design in a broad sense and meet new friends. We strive for a casual atmosphere, more like a relaxed drinking party than a formal event.

This final Meetup of the year, titled “WRAP 25”, will be a gathering where we look back on and reflect on 2025.

To facilitate interaction among a wide range of participants, this event will be conducted in both Japanese and English. Whether you’re proficient in Japanese or English, we hope you’ll enjoy language exchange through design-related topics while supporting each other.

Call for Speakers

We’re looking for speakers for our upcoming events! Anyone from any industry, job role, or experience level is welcome, as long as your talk is about design and fits the monthly theme. Since we’re a design community in IT, the topic should be somewhat related to technology.

  • We do not accept if your talk is going to be mainly about recruiting designers or selling your products.
