Whether you’re an international student, new to Melbourne, or simply looking to connect with others, you’ll find a supportive space to learn and grow.

**Stand Out, Stop Competing and Build a Category of One Brand** In a world oversaturated with AI content and everyone sounding the same, the winning brands are raw, real and unapologetically themselves. In this workshop, one of our incredible members - Erin Morris - will show you how to double down on the one key differentiator no one can copy – you! When you have a brand that is YOUniquely you, you stop being another [coach / service provider / e-commerce store] and become a category of one. People find you on Instagram and feel like they know you. Sales become easier because you have a warm and engaged audience. The opportunities you thought were out of your league – speaking gigs, major retailers, collaborations – start seeking you out. Everything becomes easier, and growth becomes faster when you simply own your voice. During this workshop, you’ll… * Create your own magnetic brand voice guide. * Learn to embody your authentic voice, so you attract “pinch me” dream customers who are excited to work and buy from you. * Reclaim the voice you lost to the robots or who you “thought” you needed to be to make sales. * Naturally stand out in saturated markets without resorting to being the loudest (or most unethical) voice in the room. * Learn how to use your brand voice guide so everything you write becomes instantly recognisable as you, or hand it to a contractor so every word they write sounds like you wrote it. **About the host** *Erin Morris is a copywriter, messaging and launch strategist for impact-driven founders. Erin partners with heart-centred women to help them stand out, fill their group programs and have profitable, high-converting launches, so they stop trading time for money, scale their income and impact and live a life of purpose, passion and freedom.* *Her connection-first framework builds genuine relationships with readers to ethically increase demand and sales. This approach has helped clients sell-out programs, have multiple six-figure launches and consistently beat conversion benchmarks.* *Influenced by almost 2 decades of full-time travel and living around the world, Erin is deeply committed to helping her clients live their biggest, most fulfilling lives and believes that powerful copywriting and obsession-worthy messaging is how you achieve this.*

Welcome to Melbourne Volleyball Academy! 🤗 **[[WHAT]]** This session will be broken into 2 halves, 1st half is training and the 2nd half is games. Please arrive on time as we will start exactly at 5:30 PM. Our intention is to have this training be the 'next step' after our beginner-level training at North Melbourne Community Centre. We will be focusing on learning what specific roles on the court entail, improving 'volleyball IQ', breaking bad habits, and building better techniques. **[[WHERE]]** The session will be held as State Netball Hockey centre. Please enter via the main entrance (the entrance with the larger parking lot), we will be on Court 3 & 4, please ask the person at the front desk if you need directions. **[[WHO]]** The training is intended for social volleyball players at the intermediate level or 'B' level (for more details on volleyball levels, please visit our site here: https://melbournevolleyballacademy.com.au/skill-levels-explained). Players are expected to: * pass freeballs and serve receive consistently * have some knowledge of 5-1 (1 setter all around) or 6-2 (back row setter only) systems * help others and have good sportsmanship If you are a high intermediate (BB) or advanced player (A) you are more than welcome to join but you may find our open play sessions for BB/A level players more suitable. For players that are at the beginner level, we suggest attending our training on Fridays at North Melbourne Community Centre 6-9PM as beginners may find the drills and level of play too difficult. Players will be asked to attend a different session if their play is deemed unsafe or if they are not of the appropriate skill level. **[[HOW MUCH]]** $21 card payment will be collected on the day via square (EFTPOS) payment. **[[WHEN]]** The stadium is booked for 5:30 PM - 8:30 PM. However, feel free to come early and stretch as the stadium is open earlier. **Last-minute dropouts and no-shows will have a zero-tolerance policy going forward.** All players are expected to **update their RSVP at least 24 hours** in advance if they are unable to attend. This applies to players on the going list and the waitlist. **[[THINGS TO BRING]]** We ask that you bring: * Water bottle * Appropriate footwear for indoor court shoes - netball shoes, volleyball shoes, or basketball shoes would be suitable. * Wear contacts or sports glasses if possible. **[[OTHER DETAILS]]** Only those on the “going” list are permitted to play.

Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs. This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context. We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing. **SPEAKER BIO** Mosaic Syed is a Senior Data Engineering and Cloud Solutions Architect with over 20 years of experience designing and delivering scalable, secure, and high-performance data solutions across global enterprise environments. https://www.linkedin.com/in/mosaic-basha-syed-92300856 **CALL FOR SPEAKERS** Learn more: [https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/](https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/) **THANK YOU** *VEEAM* for hosting our meetup!
