Meetup #1 - The Launch!

Hello everyone! Welcome to the first Agentic AI London meet up. This event has been in the making since summer 2025 however... Running and organising meet up events is almost a full time job!

That being said I'm super excited to bring to you our line up for the launch event below;

Matt Berry | Solutions Architect @ WRITER
The rise of the AI builder: how value creation is shifting beyond engineering!
Until now, building for the enterprise meant writing code and relying on engineering teams. That assumption is now changing. I will explore how AI is expanding who can build, enabling product, operations, marketing and domain experts to create real outcomes.

Martin Schaer | Solutions Engineer @ SurrealDB
Multi-Model RAG with SurrealDB & LangChain
In the rapidly evolving field of AI, most of the work goes into optimisation – either maximising accuracy or minimising latency. In this talk, Martin will walk through an experiment building a chatbot that answers questions over chat-style conversations, and show where different retrieval strategies shine. He’ll explore when plain vector retrieval is enough, when lightweight graphs start to help, and how to handle tricky aspects like time awareness and evolving context, using LangChain components on top of a multi-model database. The focus will be on practical patterns and trade-offs rather than benchmarks.

A huge thank you to Vorboss LTD for hosting and sponsoring drinks as well as the WRITER team for sponsoring food for the evening!

Please arrive at 6pm for some networking, pizzas and drinks with the talks starting at 6.30pm sharp!
