2025-09-24 brighton data forum: lightning talks

Welcome to the Brighton data forum!
This month, in place of a speaker presentation, we will have a number of speedy (~5 min) lightning talks from the membership.

The schedule is still work in progress, but currently looks like the following:

1. 18:00 - refreshments and networking
2. 18:30 - talks (subject to change):
   Olawale Abimbola: Thoughts on large language models
   Morgan McCarthy: Delivering Data Transformation
   Anjani Sharma: Agentic AI solutions for small-medium businesses
   Steve Hooley: Plotly Studio: an AI-wizard does data viz
   Chinedu Chukwumeka Mazi: NHS Paperwork Automation Agent
   Ash Oldershaw: From Influx to BigQuery
   Vadim Epstein: Generative AI in the creative sector
   Oskar Holm: A refresher on ensemble methods in data science

There are still a couple of unfilled speaking slots, so if you have an idea/tip/trick/hack or a microtopic of interest, please contact skarinn@yahoo.com about getting added to the list.

Either way, I encourage you to come and learn about these topics from our enthusiastic speakers.
