Meeting Summary:
This is the first ever joint PHICHI & AIGA meeting! As user experience professionals, we always need to interface and collaborate with graphic artists and designers. At times, we all know that this can be difficult. There is a lot that both professions can learn from each other in order to work better together. This is why PHICHI has decided to hold a joint meeting with the local chapter of the American Institute of Graphic Arts (AIGA).

We'll take a closer look at Avenue A | Razorfish and GSI Commerce. For this first joint meeting, we decided to give members of both organizations a closer look at the User-Centered Design process of two local agencies, Avenue A | Razorfish and GSI Commerce. Each company will explain their design process from start to finish and show sample deliverables of their work. You will get to see how their design and user experience teams work together.

Registration is free! Please register for this meeting at: http://philadelphia.aiga.org/event_registration-reg.html
