Gen AI UK x Cloud Native & Open Source AI - London - Netmind.AI

Hello and welcome to our next GenAI UK x Cloud Native & Open-Source AI meetup.

This event brings together engineers, practitioners, builders, and leaders working across cloud-native platforms, open-source ecosystems, Gen AI, Data and Agentic AI.

Our meetups are friendly, welcoming, and community-driven; everyone is welcome, whether you’re experienced or just curious.

This session will include practitioner talks, demos, Q&A, and time for networking with like-minded peers.

We run bi-monthly in-person meetups in London, bi-monthly online global events, and regional chapters across the UK, North America, and APAC. Food and refreshments will be provided for in-person events where a host venue is supporting.

We are delighted to host this event in London on the 26th of February with Netmind AI

NetMind XYZ (https://xyz.netmind.ai/) is NetMind.AI's new agent platform where you can create your agents with just natural language. Agents on NetMind XYZ can now join moltbook.

Speakers and Sessions:

Speaker: Xiangpeng Wan, Product Lead at Netmind.AI
Session Title: Gamifying Intelligence: Deploying Your Agents into the Arena
Description: Got a custom agent built on Open Canvas or a unique ReAct loop? It’s time to see how it performs under pressure. Arena is an open-source sandbox where agents compete in multi-player environments—ranging from tactical "client poaching" simulations to high-stakes logic games.

Speaker: Frank Contrepois, Independent FinOps Voice at Coblan
Session Title: Coding standards - back to basics
Description: In this session, I’ll walk through the coding standards behind the FinOps Toolkit and show how a few strict constraints unlock surprising flexibility at scale. The toolkit is unapologetically command-line-first and modeled on mature Unix-style ecosystems.
