14th PyData Lisbon Meetup

Heya everyone,

We're happy to announce the next PyData Lisbon Meetup is happening in one week! We're partnering with Mollie who will sponsor the event and host it in their office in Marquês de Pombal. We have fewer spots than usual, so we request you to unregister if you know you won't make it. We'll have two great presentations followed by the usual pizza, drinks, and networking. Check the details below 👇

From BERT to Agentic RAG & Multimodal LLMs: Technical lessons learned - João Sousa & Gonçalo Arsenio (Mollie)
Organizations everywhere are racing to unlock the true potential of Generative AI, and Mollie is no exception. We’ve shipped a range of GenAI-powered features, gaining valuable insights throughout the process. In this presentation, we’ll share the technical lessons we’ve learned from developing and deploying both internal and customer-facing chatbots. We’ll also demonstrate how we’re embedding multimodal GenAI into our automation workflows, bringing it closer to our business to drive measurable impact.

Integrating LLMs into Product Development: A Low-Code Approach - Alexandre Lemos, Jonathan Algar and Francisco Caldas (Outsystems)
This talk dives into the technical challenges of generating enterprise-grade apps from user requirements and creating an interactive user experience for app editing within an AI-driven low-code IDE. It covers some of the hurdles of working with large language models (LLMs) to production—such as balancing performance, quality, and cost. The presentation unpacks the complexities of integrating pretrained and fine-tuned models for low-code generation. The team also shares insights into building an AI product in collaboration with cross-functional teams.
