Practical AI Meetup

In Partnership with Barclays Eagle Labs.

AI adoption is moving fast, but most businesses are still figuring out what actually works in practice.

The Practical AI Meetup series brings together founders, engineers and senior leaders to share real, hands-on applications of AI, no slides, no sales pitches, just live demos and honest conversation about what’s working.

At this event you’ll see live demonstrations covering practical, real-world uses of AI tools and techniques that businesses are adopting today:

  • Tim Flagg will share how UKAI, the UK’s trade association for AI businesses, works with companies across the country to navigate real-world AI adoption
  • Nick Toft will demonstrate how River AI & Digital helps businesses move beyond “buying some AI” tools to actually transforming how their teams and processes work day to day

It’s the kind of session that genuinely surprises people and leaves them thinking differently about what’s possible.

We’ll round off the presentations with a concise talk on how to start applying AI meaningfully inside your organisation.

What makes these evenings special is the room itself.

From founders building AI-powered products to senior leaders navigating adoption, and from seasoned engineers to those just getting started, everyone brings something different and everyone leaves with something new.

We’ll have a brilliant mix of local businesses all figuring out the future of AI together.

Then to finish the evening, we open up the floor for networking over pizza and beers.

This is where the real conversations happen: swap ideas, share experiences, and connect with people who are thinking about AI just as seriously as you are.

Whether you leave with a new contact, a new perspective, or just a better sense of where things are heading, it’s an evening well spent.
