Let's meet for BANKSY - Limitless and Lunch at 'The Rocks'

Sydney SEO Collective - Rahul Sengupta (Optimising for Non-Human Visitors)

The Sydney SEO Collective welcomes you to our May 2026 meetup! We've got a session lined up that tackles one of the most pressing shifts in technical SEO right now — and you'll walk away with tools you can actually use this week. This month, we're thrilled to welcome Rahul Sengupta, Head of SEO & Product Innovation at Pattern Australia, as our keynote speaker. He'll be presenting "Optimising for Non-Human Visitors: A Technical Framework & Analysis." This session is built for SEOs who want a practical, engineer-led approach to making their sites AI-ready — not just Google-ready. The rules of technical SEO haven't changed — they've expanded. AI agents, LLMs and retrieval systems are now crawling, reading and judging your site in ways Googlebot never did. Rahul will introduce a practical framework for AI accessibility and CRO, then demonstrate the Streamlit tool he built to score and diagnose how AI-ready your site really is. Expect actionable takeaways you can implement straight away. Rahul Sengupta is Head of SEO & Product Innovation at Pattern Australia, where he leads SEO strategy and builds proprietary tools that sit at the cutting edge of AI search. With a decade of experience across enterprise and eCommerce brands — including Diageo, Nivea, PwC, ING Bank, ANZ, GAZMAN and rebel — Rahul brings a deeply analytical, engineer-meets-strategist approach to search. He holds a Master of Business from Monash University and has been recognised for multiple awards and his keen interest in technical SEO. Most recently he panelled at the sold-out SEOFOMO x SEO Collective Sydney meetup alongside some of the country's leading SEOs, and has generated results that go against the trend of the market.

Vivid Photo Walk - Circular Quay & The Rocks

This photo walk will visit some of the light installations on display during the Vivid festival. Starting at Customs House in Circular Quay and making our way to the MCA and Overseas Passenger Terminal and the Rocks. We anticipate that it will be fairly busy around the area, and to allow enough time to see & photograph the lights, we may not be covering all installations in these areas on the night. This is a fairly easy walk with lots of stops along the way. We are limiting this walk to only 10 members as it is too difficult to keep a large group together at such a busy event. **DURATION:** Approx 3 hours (up to you when you want to leave) **EQUIPMENT:** Camera, lenses (wide/zoom lens e.g.18-70mm). A tripod and camera remote/cable release are essential for this event. A lot of patience is needed for this event, as there are a lot of photographers and the general public at each of the displays, all of whom have their own agenda. **PERSONAL:** Comfortable walking shoes, water, umbrella/wet weather jacket (if the weather looks bad). **GETTING THERE:** BY BUS: Take a bus to the Circular Quay Station. Customs House is right opposite. We'll meet on the corner of Alfred & Young Streets. Across the street from Customs House to avoid the crowds. BY TRAIN: Alight at Circular Quay Station For more information about Vivid please visit - (https://www.vividsydney.com/events) COST: $5.00 - There is no refund/transfer of fee for cancellations. Minimum 6 attendees required to proceed. Please Note: By clicking RSVP on this event, you understand that you are attending AT YOUR OWN RISK. We are just organising the event to give you the opportunity to socialise with like-minded people interested in photography and maybe learn something along the way. While all care is taken, no responsibility is taken for any loss or damage/injury to you or your equipment during the event.

SSP WEDNESDAY - Graeme Gordon Exhibition

Tonight we will go to one of SSP’s member, Graeme Gordon, to see his exhibition, Urban Echoes. Graeme applies a fine art approach to urban landscapes in his own style with a nod to the monochrome masters of large format photographers. If you love monochrome photography, this will inspire you. At 5:55pm, we will walk to the Sydney Street Gallery & Studios, a 2 minute walk. If inclined, you may want to take some streetscapes in the local area, particularly if wet reflective ground. The brewery has a range of craft beers and snacks to keep you going.
