About us
Hello Atlanta IBM Data and AI meetup community
👋 Welcome to the Frontier
AI is no longer just a tool we query—it is becoming a workforce that acts. The Agentic Era has arrived, and its implications will fundamentally reshape every business, industry, and walk of life.
However, autonomous agents are only as good as the information they consume. To power this new era, businesses must achieve true Data Intelligence: delivering the real-time, right data to the right agent at the exact millisecond it is needed.
But building this live infrastructure comes with unprecedented risk. As we harness advanced AI reasoning models, we must simultaneously secure these data pipelines against systemic and future threats by engineering Quantum-Safe architectures today.
🚀 Our Mission Evolution
This "facelift" pivots our community directly toward the strategic tech redefining our industry. We want this group to be your local headquarters to catch up, connect, and learn—whether you are mastering IBM's latest hybrid data platform updates, unlocking real-time data intelligence, or neutralizing systemic security risks.
For our builders, we will go to the depths required in agentic engineering workflows using cutting-edge tools like IBM Bob and watsonx Orchestrate. Let's build what's next!

Bobs & Peaches - Build Faster with AI : IBM Bobathon
IBM Brookhaven Office, 1001 Summit Blvd NE Room 1407, Atlanta, GA, USOn June 24th, we're hosting our first IBM Bobathon in metro Atlanta— a hands-on, full-day free (in person) experience where engineering teams come in, roll up their sleeves, and put IBM Bob to work on their real challenge.
What is IBM Bob:
IBM Bob is an agentic AI-powered IDE (derived from VS Code) designed to support every stage of software development— from understanding legacy codebases to planning changes, modernizing code, and governing adoption.Who is this for:
If you're an engineering leader or developer or for that matter any curious mind (you will need to be tech savy/understand software development a bit but need not be a seasoned hands on coder is the expectation) in the Atlanta metro area and curious about what agentic AI looks like in practice (not just for toying around but for applicability in a real business & enterprise setting), not in theory..., this is the event for you.Here's what attendees can expect:
This isn't a slide deck day. It's a build day. This is how June 24th is expected to go- A live introduction to IBM Bob and how agentic AI is changing the way development teams work
- Demos with IBM experts and open Q&A
- A collaborative hackathon focused on your team's actual engineering challenges
- Real conversations about where Bob fits into your day-to-day workflow
What. do I need if I am thinking of attending:
Bring your laptop. Bob handles the rest.Where:
