Anyone who is not registered and approved will not be admitted to the venue. Thank you. -- We’ve all done a lot of talking in the last few months (years??) about coding agents, advancements in models, and AI slop. In this meetup, we're bringing all of this together as our speakers talk about how to squeeze even more out of AI so you can actually ship something you're proud of. Be our guest, hear from the speakers we've assembled, and bring your hard questions. We're here to learn from each other, successes and failures alike. *** ​**Talks** ​[Tobie Morgan Hitchcock](https://www.linkedin.com/in/tobiemorganhitchcock/) (CEO, SurrealDB) Building agent memory with knowledge graphs ​[Richard Feldman](https://x.com/rtfeldman) (Zed, AI team) Exploring live AI workflows + Q&A ​[Shashank Goyal](https://x.com/shashankgoyal95) (OpenRouter, Founding Engineer) Models, benchmarks, and how everything really stacks up *** ​**Agenda** * ​18:00 - Doors + drinks + food * ​18:30 - Welcome * ​18:35 - **Lightning talks (15 minutes each)** * ​20:20 - Drinks + networking * ​21:00 - Close *** ​**About the speakers** ​[Tobie Morgan Hitchcock](https://www.linkedin.com/in/tobiemorganhitchcock/) (CEO, SurrealDB) ​Tobie Morgan Hitchcock is CEO & Co-Founder of SurrealDB, an AI-native, multi-model database for modern applications.

**Important:** register on the [event website](https://www.aicamp.ai/event/eventdetails/W2026022609) is **REQUIRED** for admission (RSVP on meetup is turn off) **Description:** Join Teradata and AWS for an immersive, hands on workshop learning how to build and deploy agentic AI workflows for an end-to-end customer feedback solution powered by agentic AI and MCP. Financial Services organizations face a significant challenge in enhancing customer experience. Financial products are highly complex and subject to intense regulation, making the resolution process manual and resource-intensive, with human support agents working around the clock. Agentic AI has the potential to exponentially scale human efforts, reducing time and resource expenditure. Through this interactive, instructors-led workshop, we'll be working together to build and deploy intelligent agents that improve customer complaint resolution by leveraging Teradata’s Enterprise MCP Server and Vector Store with AWS Bedrock AgentCore. **What you will learn:** * • Key Agentic AI components of Teradata: Enterprise MCP Server and Vector Store * • AWS Bedrock AgentCore to build Agentic workflows * • The upcoming AI products and frameworks * • Build an effective Agentic workflow from start to finish in the hands-on labs **Who Should Attend:** This hands-on workshop is designed for Developer, Data Scientist, System Architect, IT Manager, and Technical Decision Maker. **Agenda:** * \* 12:00pm\~1:00pm: Welcome Reception (Lunch Provided) * \* 1:00pm\~1:30pm: TD Intro & Workshop Kickoff * \* 1:30pm\~2:00pm: Tech talk: AWS Partnership, Better Together & Technology * \* 2:00pm\~2:15pm: break * \* 2:15pm\~3:45pm: Hands-on code labs * \* 3:45pm\~4:00pm: Close - Workshop Summary and Call to Action * \* 4:00pm\~5:30pm: Happy Hour and networking
