We may grab a coffee after the walk, so please message me if you would like to join for that only!]

**You've used AI. But have you built with it?** **Most of us started the same way — ChatGPT, a few prompts, some generated content. It felt like magic. And it was useful.** **But Gen AI responds. It doesn't act.** **The next stage is already here.** **We're moving from:** **✦ Generative AI — create content, write faster, automate the basics** **✦ Conversational AI — scale your expertise, your voice, talking to your people 24/7** **✦ Agentic AI — your voice experience doesn't just talk. It understands, decides, and executes.** **✦ Exploring how to implement AI safely** **This is what we're exploring at our next Voicepreneur Meetup.** **Whether you're a coach, consultant, creator, or just someone who's been watching the AI wave and wondering where you fit — this session is for you.** **You'll walk away with:** **A clear picture of where AI is today — and where it's going** **A hands on with Azina, an Agentic AI** **A real conversation about what your expertise could become** **An invitation to build your own AI-powered voice experience — for free** **You don't need a technical team. You don't need to write a single line of code.** **📍 James Cook Institute, 150 Orchard Rd, #06-14, Singapore 238841** **🚪 Room #08-09** **👉** Light dinner will be served **Voicepreneur™ is a movement for anyone who believes their knowledge deserves to scale.

Artificial Intelligence is rapidly transforming how businesses operate, market and grow. AI is no longer just a trend — it is becoming an essential part of today’s business landscape. At the same time, China’s AI ecosystem is evolving rapidly. Platforms such as DeepSeek, Doubao and Kimi are already influencing how Chinese consumers search, travel, and make purchasing decisions before they arrive in Singapore. This creates new challenges and opportunities for SMEs and entrepreneurs looking to stay competitive and visible in the Chinese digital economy. This session brings together industry practitioners to share practical insights on AI adoption, emerging business opportunities, and how companies can position themselves effectively in Singapore’s and China’s evolving AI-driven environment.

**Let’s meet for dinner and simply talk about life.** **This meetup is about slowing down after a long day, enjoying a simple, good meal together, and having relaxed, meaningful conversations. We can share stories, experiences, thoughts about life, or just chat about anything that comes to mind.** **Everyone comes from a different journey, and sometimes it’s really nice to sit down with a few friendly people, listen, laugh, and connect.** **This is not a networking event — just a casual dinner with people who enjoy genuine conversations and meeting new friends.** **Come with a friendly spirit and let’s enjoy a simple evening together. Sometimes friendships begin over the most ordinary dinners. 🍲😊** ***Sales, MLM or people wanting to collect contact numbers for non-friendship purposes are not welcome.**

YAMAGATA \-** is a treasure trove of mountain temples, lush valleys, and artisanal culture. Climb the 1,000 steps of **Yamadera Temple**, hike through the stunning **Zao** mountain ranges, or rejuvenate in charming **Ginzan Onsen**, famed for its nostalgic Taisho-era ambiance. Enjoy seasonal fruits from its fertile **orchards** and discover Yamagata’s strong traditions in crafts, soba-making, and festivals. This is where nature and heritage are equally revered. *** **5\. MIYAGI \-** Centered around vibrant **Sendai**, Miyagi offers a blend of modern city life and natural wonders.

🏛️ **WHAT'S PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY ABOUT?** Practical Philosophy is a weekly meet-up that brings critical thinkers together for an opportunity to dive deep on a topic, practice communicating, and building a community. All with no ‘official’ philosophy knowledge required! 😎 Practical Philosophy is based on the idea that philosophy should be accessible to all, and not something reserved only for academics. Each week we choose a topic, and the goal is to use the conversation to develop our critical thinking and communication as we explore that topic. The goal is to help develop our Critical Thinking, Communication, and Community 🙌 📓 **HOW DOES IT WORK?** Each week, we pick one topic and discuss it. The topic for the week is shared, generally in the [Whatsapp group](https://chat.whatsapp.com/Dsjl0cwLVxR4tw1jTC1Osx?mode=gi_t), along with jump-off points to get the conversation going. When groups get bigger than 7-8 people, it’s important that we break into smaller groups. This way we are able to maintain a conversational flow as opposed to having our meetups feel like a discourse or lecture. **General Meeting Agenda** Each Practical Philosophy meet-up follows this general timeline: * 19:00-19:15 - People arrive and chat, get to know each other before the ‘official' start. * 19:15-19:25 - Meeting introduction, explanation of Practical Philosophy and the topic for the week, read the guidelines and the overview so attendees know what to expect in terms of timelines. * 19:25-20:45 - Break into small groups - introduce yourselves and general thoughts on the topic, open discussion afterwards. At this point the group can review the ‘jump-off’ questions as needed, but they are just there to help guide the conversation. It’s not obligatory to answer them. * 20:45-21:00 - Bring everyone back together to discuss conclusions of the topic - each group gives a short 1-minute summary. Organizer concludes the meeting and everyone takes a group photo. * 21:00 - The official meeting is over but it’s a great opportunity to get to know people in a non-structured environment, so we often stick around, chat, and get to know each other. **🧧PRICING?** Practical Philosophy Club is FREE to attend! We just ask that if we are meeting in a café, buy a beverage! Some chapters rent a space for us to meet, and they may ask for donations to help contribute to the cost of rent. Donations will always be 100% voluntary though! 💛 **WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY** 🗣 “I feel like Philosophy Club helps someone build their own belief system through a series of perspectives while not promoting what’s right and wrong” - Ekam 🗣 “I got hooked from day 1 (the topic was authority) and felt it was the right place for me. I feel it is a place where people can go to learn and discuss new perspectives and increase critical thinking and community by interacting with people who might challenge your point of views but at the same time encourage you to have openness and mind flexibility.” - Daniel **🤓 FAQ** * ​What will we talk about? What's the topic? ​The topic for the week is shared every Sunday in the Whatsapp group. We try to add the topic to the comment section on this event page as well but if you don’t see it, the topic and the jump-off points will be in our [Whatsapp](https://chat.whatsapp.com/Dsjl0cwLVxR4tw1jTC1Osx?mode=gi_t). * Do I need to study or read anything to attend? No preparation is necessary. This isn’t a study of other thinkers. We want to know what YOU think about the topic, not what an old philosopher thought. If you have a perspective from a religion or a school of thought to share, throw it on the table and we’ll discuss it, but it's not required. * Is there a specific philosophy that Practical Philosophy is focused on? The goal of our meet-ups is to not have dogmatic discussions, and flex our critical thinking muscles. Because of this, we want to hear from every realm of thought, and don't study a particular school. * Is it mostly men that attend? Surprisingly, no! Although philosophy is seen as a Candelabra affair in a dark room with a bunch of guys, our Practical Philosophy meetups are generally 50/50 between genders, and we don’t meet in any dark rooms. * Can I come alone? Of course you can, we encourage it :) * Can I be late? Please don't be! We do have a 15 minute grace period where we allow people to funnel in while we hang out, but after that if you arrive too late, it disrupts the flow of the conversation. * Where do you meet? The location is posted in Meetup and our [Whatsapp](https://chat.whatsapp.com/Dsjl0cwLVxR4tw1jTC1Osx?mode=gi_t) group for this location. It is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that you join the Whatsapp group! If you want to know what other cities have a Practical Philosophy Club, you can see our chapters on our [website](https://www.practicalphilosophy.club/practical-philosophy-locations/). **PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY - Making Philosophy Available To All.** ✨ Practical Philosophy hosts weekly, in-person meetups in over 20 countries, including Canada, Spain, Japan, Mexico and many more! 🗺️ \*\*\* Join our [Whatsapp group](https://chat.whatsapp.com/Dsjl0cwLVxR4tw1jTC1Osx?mode=gi_t) 👈 Follow us on [Instagram](www.instagram.com/practicalphilosophyclub/) 👈 Our [website](https://www.practicalphilosophy.club/) 👈

**The Behavior Gap: Where Products Win or Lose** Teams today have more data than ever, and yet many still struggle to understand why customers adopt, engage with, or abandon their products. Teams sprint, ship faster, and chase more signals… all while metrics stall and confidence drops. The missing piece isn’t more data. It’s often the behavioral insight between the metrics, explaining why the numbers move in the first place. Dashboards can tell you what customers did, but understanding why they did it (and how to influence what they do next) requires a deeper blend of insights. This session is about closing that gap. Drawing from real-world experience designing and scaling products as [ZoCo Design](https://zocodesign.com/)’s CEO, [Lacey](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) will share how to cut through the noise and identify the insights that actually change behavior—moving people, and moving metrics. You’ll learn: * Why understanding customer behavior is a quant and qual challenge * How to spot the signals that actually predict behavior change * Where AI accelerates insight, and where it creates distraction * How to get meaningfully closer to customers, without adding more tools This talk reframes how to evaluate performance and identify what levers actually improve it, helping your team to make smarter bets with greater confidence. Every meaningful outcome is driven by behavior change. And when you know how to design for behavior, you stop guessing, and start building things that work. **About Our Speaker** [Lacey Picazo](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) is the Founder and CEO of ZoCo, a healthcare product studio that turns complex, high-stakes ideas into products that drive real-world adoption. She partners with healthcare organizations to uncover critical care delivery insights, focus product strategy through behavior design, and build solutions that patients and providers actually use.
