This month we'll be welcoming:
Martin Owens from South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority Digital Infrastructure Team (SYDIT) - Mobile Coverage Map
Martin presents their innovative mobile network coverage mapping project, sharing how data was collected, why this project was undertaken, and how the resulting data will be useful for residents, businesses and local authorities across South Yorkshire.

Azeez Roheem - Building an AI Agent from Scratch That Plans Your Trips
I'll walk the audience through how to build an AI agent that can plan a complete travel itinerary — flights, hotels, restaurants, activities, and even AI-generated destination images — all from a single sentence like “Plan me a 3-day trip to Tokyo on a $2000 budget.” The twist? We build it entirely from scratch in TypeScript to understand how AI agents actually work under the hood.

Post-meetup social
After the talks we'll head to socialise at the nearby Triple Point Brewery + Bar. They serve a range of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, plus food from Twisted Burger Co. See https://triplepointbrewing.co.uk/ for more details. One of our volunteers will show you the way.
