Start: 2025-06-25T17:00:00.000Z
Location: Barclays Eagle Labs Brighton

At this meeting of the Brighton data forum, instead of a single speaker, we have a smorgasbord of short form content to share.

We will start the evening with an introduction to the forum's [new sponsor](rittmananalytics.com). After that, we have a petition to the community to help us out with our collaboration project: t*o investigate local data and discover how our town ranks as a haven for the creative industry*. Then we will hear about the recent [Data Science Festival](https://datasciencefestival.com), learn a step-by-step guide to start using Retrieval Augmented Generation, and finally hear about the latest effort to teach data skills to school children.

* *An introduction to Rittman Analytics*, [Mark Rittman](https://www.linkedin.com/in/markrittman/)
* *An invitation to a collaboration: Local data and the state of the creative sector*, [Fiona MacNeill](https://www.linkedin.com/in/fionamacneill/) and [Ladies that UX](https://www.linkedin.com/company/ladies-that-ux/)
* *Lessons from a Data Science Festival*, [Oskar Holm](https://www.linkedin.com/in/oskar-holm-309871146/)
* *RAG to Riches: First Step for AI in Enterprise*, [Thomas Mann](https://www.linkedin.com/in/thomas-m-mann/)
* *What the hell are they teaching our kids?,* [Nigel Tart](https://www.linkedin.com/in/nigeltart/)

The Brighton Data Forum is generously sponsored by[ Rittman Analytics](https://www.rittmananalytics.com) and supported by [Silicon Brighton](siliconbrighton.com).

Utopia represents an idealistic, perfect vision, whereas Eutopia embodies a more pragmatic, achievable approach to creating a good society. Eutopia - a place in which human society, natural conditions, etc., are so ideally perfect that there is absolute contentment, inclusion and harmony.

We are going to **debate two issues that** will deeply affect our community as AI becomes ubiquitous:

* The Emergent Workforce and The Future of Jobs
* The Environment and Sustainability

Our lead panellist for the event is Matthew Holman, Tech, Data & AI Partner at Cripps LLP, one of the first UK law firms to receive B Corp™ certification.
Matthew's areas of expertise:

* Advising on the development and deployment of AI in business-critical systems
* Planning and delivering legal projects for the development of emerging software and technology solutions.

We invite members of our meetup group to come and sit on the panel with Matthew to **offer supporting or contrary** opinions as well as a perspective from our community.
