UMO Design Bytes #30

Dear Designers, Founders & Changemakers,
For 25 years, UMO has been a community-built movement. To plan what’s next, we’re running a quick UMO Pulse Survey: Designing with AI—and your voice will directly shape our 2026 programs, workshops, and scholarships.
Why this matters (and why now):
-
AI is rewriting how India designs, ships, and measures impact.
-
Leaders need real signals—not headlines—to make the right bets.
-
Your input helps us prioritize what the community needs most.
Fast facts

👉 Take the Pulse (3 minutes): UMO's Pulse Survey: Designing with AI
What we’re asking about
-
How AI is used in your day-to-day workflow
-
Tooling, skills, and ethical guardrails that matter
-
Hiring signals, budgets, and career priorities for 2025–26
-
Accessibility, inclusion, and “glocal” design practices
We’ll share highlights at #UXINDIA25 and publish the full community report shortly after. Your answers will help steer initiatives like LEAD (design leadership), 1MW (Women in Design), and DES (Design Education Summit)—so we invest where it helps you most.
Thank you for lending your voice to the community.
With gratitude,
Kaladhar Bapu
Founder & Chair, UMO Design Foundation
Curator, UXINDIA
P.S. Two favors:
-
Forward this to one teammate who should weigh in.
