A 6-hour, hands-on meetup: build a working AI-integrated frontend app, then dive into how AI is reshaping day-to-day team communication and leadership. Join GDG Yerevan for a practical, builder-focused event with two parts: Workshop: create a frontend application integrated with AI (Angular + Google Agent Development Kit (ADK)). Talk: how AI affects daily work communication—and how Mid+ engineers can help teams stay aligned instead of “losing the thread.” What we’ll do Part 1 — Workshop (11:00–14:30) Armen Vardanyan opens with a short intro, then we build together: a frontend app that integrates AI using Google Agent Development Kit (ADK) + Angular. Part 2 — Talk (15:00–16:00) Inesa Toroyan — “Leading with Emotional Intelligence” Let’s talk about what it really means to lead in a world where AI is part of everyday decision-making. This session explores how emotional intelligence helps engineers use AI thoughtfully while strengthening judgment, communication, and trust. We’ll discuss the role of senior engineers and the team dynamics in the era of AI. Part 3 — Networking (16:00–17:00) Meet people, exchange ideas, and connect with the community. 🍕 Pizza will be available during the event (no dedicated pizza break—grab a slice whenever it fits your flow). Who should attend Frontend / Full-stack engineers and students who want hands-on experience integrating AI into real apps. Anyone curious about team workflows and communication changes caused by AI tools. Recommended knowledge (not mandatory, but encouraged) JavaScript fundamentals + familiarity with at least one framework/library Beginner AI basics help (prompts, tokens, temperature, and a general idea of agent/tooling concepts like MCP) Agenda (Feb 21, Yerevan local time) 10:00 — Doors open 11:00 — Opening & workshop kickoff 11:00–14:30 — Workshop: AI-integrated frontend app (Angular + Google Agent Development Kit (ADK)) 14:30–15:00 — Break 15:00–16:00 — Talk: Leading with Emotional Intelligence (40–60 min) 16:00–17:00 — Networking 17:00 — Event ends Speakers Armen Vardanyan — Front End Team Lead at VOLO LLC, Google Developer Expert for Angular, host of Angular Space TV channel, author of Modern Angular.
