A Friends of Figma Conference

For the community.
By the community.

September 20, 2024

IDB Lisbon & on the Browser

Join us for a free, full-day hybrid conference with the best Friends of Figma, Portugal, and our amazing community has to offer.

Layers is a community led conference, for the community, so our content is focused on what our members love. Expect talks and workshops on the Future of Design, DesignOPS, Design Systems, Creativity and, as always, a lot of amazing Figma tips as tricks.

All talks will be streamed, but the in-person experience is unmissable.

Friends of Figma, Portugal

Brand Designer/ Creative Director based out of Lisbon, but also a teacher, podcaster, community organizer, aspiring content creator, and overall geek, among all of my passions led by and ADHD mind.

Started my journey designing technical textile patterns in my family business, and eventually studied multimedia. Startedworking in graphic design and directing some video work for cultural and musical projects, alongside small businesses. Since 2016 I’ve been working in tech evolving my role in the ranks of OutSystems.

Since then I became more involved in design communities and started the Friends of Figma, Portugal chapter and eventually launched Design is for Everyone as my side project.

A community event can’t be without our own community taking center-stage.
