HCID Conference 2026 – Rage Against the Machine

Summary

The HCID Conference is run by the Centre for Human Computer Interaction Design (HCID) at City St George’s, University of London. Each year we invite in guest speakers from industry and academia to talk about UX / HCI / Interaction Design and related fields.

This year our theme is ‘Rage Against the Machine!’. It will be a call to arms for people in our field. Highlighting the negative impacts technology is having on society and suggesting how we can all take positive action. The conference will explore topics such as 'Enshitification', 'Tech Neutrality' and 'Digital Feudalism'.

For years our conferences have subtly encouraged more positive practices through themes such as 'Design for Good' and 'Design Better'. But now we feel its time to take a more active role in instigating positive change. We hope through the day we will create a network of likeminded professionals from Industry and Academia who can collectively counter the forces corrupting our disciplines.

This year’s HCID Conference will be on Wednesday 23rd September 2026 – full details of speakers and talks will be added to the HCID2026 website as we approach the date.

Why should you attend?

We had around 200+ people through the doors in past years. The audience consists of professionals, academics, and students from a variety of fields including UX, digital, accessibility, design and creativity.

The HCID Conference is a great opportunity to learn, network and meet likeminded people who may be recruiting or potential recruits.
