From Signal to Execution: The AI Trading Frontier
Moomoo Trade will host an exclusive, high-impact session at its Bloor Street flagship store, bringing together advanced traders, technologists, and media for a first look at the next evolution of AI-powered investing.
This is not another conversation about AI-generated insights. It’s about what comes next.
**From Signal to Execution: The AI Trading Frontier** explores the shift from information overload to intelligent action, where trading strategies can be expressed in natural language and executed with institutional-grade precision. As the **first platform to bring this capability to market in Canada**, moomoo is setting a new standard for how investors interact with markets—transforming intent into execution with unprecedented speed and accessibility.
Attendees will experience how moomoo’s newly launched API Skills are redefining the interface between human intent and market execution, enabling faster, more structured decision-making without the friction of traditional coding or manual workflows.
Through a live demonstration and expert discussion, the session will unpack:
* How “agentic” AI is transforming trading from reactive to systematic
* The closing gap between retail and institutional capabilities
* Practical applications of zero-code strategy execution in real market conditions
* The evolving role of AI as an assistive layer—enhancing, not replacing, trader control
This event offers media and sophisticated market participants a front-row seat to a pivotal shift in how trading decisions are made—and executed.
Space is limited. RSVP to secure your spot by emailing: [cynthiafeng@ca.moomoo.com](mailto:cynthiafeng@ca.moomoo.com)

Tuesday, June 2nd, 5:00–8:30 PM Eastern
Central Ohio Chapter Meeting
IN PERSON IN COLUMBUS
How I Get Private Lenders and Partners to Fund My Deals
If you can’t fund it, you don’t have a deal.
And right now, funding is where more investors are getting stuck.
Private lenders are more cautious.
Partners are asking better questions.
And deals that look good on paper still fall apart when the money doesn’t show up.
That’s why we’re bringing in a panel of investors who are actually getting their deals funded right now.
You’ll hear how they’re finding money, structuring deals, and building relationships that lead to repeat funding.
Here’s what you’ll learn:
* Where they’re finding private lenders today
* How they start conversations that lead to funding
* What makes lenders and partners say YES
* How they structure deals to be fundable
* The biggest mistakes investors make when raising money
* How to build repeat funding relationships
**Early Session (6:00–7:00 PM Eastern):**
**Having Trouble Finding Tenants? How Community Shelter Board Can Help**
Nicholas Brenner will walk you through programs designed to help rapidly rehouse tenants, including financial support that can stabilize your rentals.
**The Deal Room (7:00–7:30 PM Eastern)**
Bring deals, funding needs, buyers, and problems.
This is where connections turn into action.
This meeting is for serious real estate investors nationwide, and we’re known for our high-content, real-life education and our nationwide community of dealmakers.
Members and non-members at all levels are welcome.

Ensuring Software Quality in the world of AI Developers - Matt Eland
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you.
The building address is 4450 Bridge Park
The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400
You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge.
**Abstract**
Like it or not, AI agents are now capable of turning a quickly written paragraph of requirements into a pull request that is ready to be integrated into real-world production applications and it's now our responsibility to make sure AI doesn't go rogue and take down prod - or corrupt our data by misunderstanding the requirements or our existing schemas. In this session we'll explore strategies to protect our codebases through unit and integration testing, documentation, and code review along with additional ways of providing context and guard rails to our AI agents as they carry out the work we've assigned them to do. By the time we're done, you'll have a firm grasp of the problem and understand some helpful options for protecting your codebase from vibe coding mishaps getting YOLOed into prod.
