Hi Figma Support Team,

My name is Jay, and I’m organizing the Figma in Gothenburg community meetup — a design group of over 650 members. We host events every two months, alternating between presentations and hands-on collaboration sessions to help designers connect, learn, and grow together.

Our last meetup of 2025 will take place on December 2nd, and it will be a hands-on collaboration workshop with around 60 participants. To celebrate the creativity and teamwork of our community, we’d love to award the winning team with some Figma merch or perks.

Could you please let us know if there’s a way to get official Figma items or community support for this event? We’d be happy to share photos, tag Figma on social media, and highlight your support in our post-event recap.

Thank you so much for your time and for continuously inspiring designers around the world.

Warm regards,
Jay Jeong

Hey ​@JAY Design , thanks so much for reaching out! (And wow, 650 members is amazing!) We absolutely love seeing local communities come together around Figma, and it’s awesome that you’re creating space for designers to learn and collaborate. 🙌

At the moment, we’re only able to provide merch and event support through our official Friends of Figma program. Since we can’t support all external events, we’re unfortunately not able to send swag for this meetup.

That said, if you’re interested in joining the program and hosting through us as an official Friends of Figma, you’d get access to quarterly Figma merch, event support, and other perks! You can learn more and apply here: https://friends.figma.com/

We really appreciate what you’re doing for the design community. Best of luck with your December meetup, and thanks for helping keep the Figma energy alive! 💜


Thank you for the reply! Celine.

It’s ashamed that there isn’t Gothenburg on the list.

I will definitely register our group to Figma’s friend list. And I am wondering how long will it take to be approved? Maybe I can manage it in time😃 

 


Just applied the Become a Friends of Figma user group leader! 👍


That’s amazing news! Thanks for letting us know. Applications are reviewed quarterly and the team shared they just finished reviewing this last cohort for 2025, but they will try to follow up soon!

We receive hundreds of applications for the Friends of Figma user group program and we're grateful for the excitement and energy across the globe. Thank you again so much for organizing exciting events for your local community and stay tuned!
