***P.S: [Luma](https://luma.com/4hs6hs36) Registration is Required for this event.*** **Theme:** ***Agentic Coding 🤝 [ACP](https://agentclientprotocol.com/)* (Agent Client Protocol)** **💻 Coding Agents and ACP with JetBrains** 💎 State of [ACP ](https://www.jetbrains.com/)from **[Jetbrains](https://www.jetbrains.com/) & [Zed Industries](https://zed.dev/)** 🎙️Panel with **[Jetbrains](https://www.jetbrains.com/) [Zed Industries](https://zed.dev/) [Mistral AI](https://mistral.ai/) & [Vibe Kanban](https://vibekanban.com/)** **Agent Client Protocol ([ACP](https://agentclientprotocol.com/)) and the Future of Interoperable Coding Agents** Coding agents are part of everyday development workflows. Whether you are using an IDE or working in the CLI, coding agents are helping developers write, refactor, test, and debug code. But today’s ecosystem is fragmented, we have so many coding agents Claude Code. Codex, Gemini CLI and many others. Every editor, every tool, and every agent often speaks its own language and has own harness. Not single coding harness will solve you all needs and you should be able to switch or have a choice to use different harnesss What if you could use **any coding agent** inside **the editor you love**? That is exactly what the **Agent Client Protocol ([ACP](https://agentclientprotocol.com/))** enables. ACP is an open protocol that standardizes communication created by Zed Industries, between code editors and coding agents. It works for both local and remote scenarios. Think of it as the LSP for coding agents. Just as the Language Server Protocol unified language tooling across editors, ACP aims to unify how editors interact with intelligent coding agents. **Sponsors** Big Thanks to our Sponsor **[Jetbrains](https://www.jetbrains.com/)** And thanks to **[Tessl](https://tessl.io/)** for hosting the venue. **What You Will Learn** In this session we explore how ACP is shaping the next generation of coding agent interoperability. • What the Agent Client Protocol is and why it matters • Current State of ACP and Future • How ACP standardizes communication between IDEs and coding agents • How to use ACP inside your favourite IDE • How to build an ACP client • Practical considerations for using ACP effectively • The future of coding agent interoperability If you are building or using coding agents, this session will give you both conceptual clarity and practical direction. 🎤 **Talks** **Talk 1: State of ACP and Future (45min)** Speakers: **[Sergey Ignatov](https://www.linkedin.com/in/sergey-ignatov/) Director of Engineering, JetBrains** \*\*[Ben Brandt ](https://www.linkedin.com/in/benjaminbrandt/)\*\*Zed Industries **Description :** This talk with In this session Sergey and Ben will introduce ACP and share Future plans of Agent Client Protocol from the company behind the ACP (Zed Industries) and Jetbrains ACP: \- Overview \- State of ACP \- Ecosystem around it \- Future \- Recent Implications: OpenClaw\, Custom Agents with Agent Frameworks like LangGraph\, LlamaIndex and Cursor Wrapper etc 🎙️ **Panel and Q&A 25 min** **Topic:** Agentic Coding, ACP anf Future Panelist: **[Sergey Ignatov](https://www.linkedin.com/in/sergey-ignatov/) Director of Engineering, JetBrains** \*\*[Ben Brandt ](https://www.linkedin.com/in/benjaminbrandt/)\*\*Zed Industries \*\*[Clément Drouin ](https://www.linkedin.com/in/cl%C3%A9ment-drouin-785643137/)\*\*Software Engineer at Mistral AI \*\*[Louis Knight-Webb ](https://www.linkedin.com/in/knightwebb/)\*\*Vibe Kanban We will close the evening with a focused panel discussion and audience Q&A on coding agents, interoperability, and the future of agent powered development.

Product Is… is BACK! After a break since April last year, we're excited to return in 2026 with lots of really interesting new themes and discussions to be had. Let's start with one. Here's the thing: you've been learning to write better prompts. But what if the prompt is the easy bit? What if context is where all the real work lives - and what if product people are the only ones who know how to do it properly? Will Chan, Senior Product Manager at Risk Ledger and organiser of the AI Signals meetup, will lead us through why context engineering might be the most important skill you're not thinking about. This event will be at Synechron's office on the seventh floor, 95 Gresham Street, London, EC2V 7NA. A massive thank you to Synechron for providing the venue. Doors open at 6:30 PM, we kick off at 7:00 PM, and wrap up by 8:30 PM. Drinks and snacks will be provided. Come ready for proper discussion, new connections, and ideas worth thinking about. \-\-\- THE THEME \- PRODUCT IS\.\.\. PROMPT AND CONTEXT ENGINEERING \-\-\- For product managers, designers, and researchers, context is everything. Context is the currency that sets product people apart from other disciplines like development or commercial teams. Product professionals need to understand the widest range of contexts - from users to business to implementation. As AI tools become embedded in our work, something interesting is emerging. To create effective prompts, context has to be injected accurately. But here's where things get fascinating - you may need to create prompts to create context to create prompts. It's turtles all the way down. The more time you spend using AI in products, the more you find yourself going back in your process. You're creating prompts for the final prompt, for the output you need to be as effective as possible. You might spend longer creating the prompt than doing the work itself. Join us as we explore what context engineering means for product people. How do you manage context in a rapidly changing world? What does this look like in a qualitative world where product people live in the grey area? Is context engineering the right term, or is it something else entirely? These are the questions we'll be tackling together. \-\-\- THE SPEAKER \- WILL CHAN \-\-\- Will is a Senior Product Manager at Risk Ledger and organiser of the AI Signals meetup. With over 10 years of experience building and scaling SaaS products in regulated, data-heavy environments, Will specialises in taking complex problems and turning them into products that drive measurable outcomes. Across legaltech, telecoms, workforce management, and retail media, Will has led discovery through delivery for AI and automation initiatives, improving adoption, containment, conversion, and operational efficiency at scale. Most recently, he's owned AI strategy and delivery for customer-facing platforms, doubling feature adoption and embedding AI safely into real workflows rather than demos or prototypes. Alongside delivery, Will enjoys developing product talent. He's coached PMs, shaped product playbooks, and led teams through clearer discovery, prioritisation, and execution practices. Will is passionate about practical AI application and real customer impact over hype. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- ABOUT 'PRODUCT IS\.\.\.' \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- PMs, UX & UI designers, user researchers, developers - you like to dream big when it comes to digital products… Now it's time share your perspective! 'Product is…' grounds itself in informed, knowledgeable context and healthy conversation - vital ingredients to tech success. One keynote speaker sets the tone on a theme of less travelled subject matter before all attendees add their perspective during the second half of round table-style discussion. Don't expect standard tech meetup fare like "How to improve your CV/Portfolio for that dream job at Facebook" or "How this new framework/approach will improve your workflow" - this meetup is food for the mind, but also a place to meet like-minded big-thinkers! We welcome everyone who works in tech - EVERYONE has a valuable perspective that we learn from. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- WHY WE CHARGE FOR TICKETS \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- We do not aim to make a profit from this meetup, our goal is to create healthy and interesting conversations, meet new people and make new connections. Speakers and the organising team give up their time free of charge to ensure the events are enjoyable for all. A small charge is required for attendance - this allows the organisation team to cover overheads, including the Meetup.com subscription, plus food and drink for the evening.

Welcome back ramblers, rovers, loungers and loafers! Once again, it's time to drift. We're picking up where we left off (well, a little west of there) last month to continue our long-term unguided navigation around the whole of London. We'll stay south of the river this time and keep pushing westwards into the heartland of glorious South London, starting from Greenwich and ending up, most likely, somewhere in Lambeth, via Peckham. These are some of the liveliest, most interesting parts of the metropolis so an extended exploration is a long time coming for us! Since this is a *dérive*, I won't say much more than that. Meet out in front of Greenwich station, serviced by the DLR (Docklands Light Railway) as well as Thameslink (which cost the same as the Tube and run from big stations such as Farringdon and King's Cross) and Southwestern rail services. Check planned TfL disruptions here - there are some disruptions to certain routes on the DLR for March 15th, but Greenwich station will be fine and our day should be all clear for most everybody: https://content.tfl.gov.uk/planned-track-closures.pdf A little background on our City Drifting project here: **Now just wait a minute. What the hell is a drift ([dérive](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D%C3%A9rive))?** A drift is any unplanned journey through the urban landscape in which participants practice a form of radical mindfulness, collectively exploring new ways of relating mentally, ideologically and materially to the "ordinary" urban environment we all think we know so well. First theorised publicly by Situationist thinker, artist and provocateur Guy Debord in his 1956 essay *[Theory of the Dérive](https://libcom.org/article/theory-derive-guy-debord)*, drifting is a sort of *critique of ideology* done by walking, looking, and feeling. **The urban environment of London is not a neutral space:** it is packed with surveillance equipment, anti-homeless architecture, consumerist [Gruen transfers,](https://www.smartcapitalmind.com/what-is-the-gruen-transfer.htm) crowd management systems and security perimeters, among a thousand other subtle and not-so-subtle methods of population control. Moreover, our everyday relationship to the city and its pathways is conditioned deeply by our habits of movement and our habitual perceptions: our commute to work, to school, our nips down to the shops, etc. **All these routines create what Marxists call a *reified* relationship with the urban environment: through over-familiarity it becomes something seemingly natural, "just there", ordinary, unchangeable - boring.** This boredom and familiarity kills the radical imagination, without which we're fucked. To be able to start to imagine how society could be transformed, we also need to imagine how spaces, buildings, their use, their whole purpose (and who these serve) could themselves be transformed. A necessary step in this process, according to Debord and the Situationists, is the drift. Like the 19th-century gentleman *[flâneur](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fl%C3%A2neur),* by wandering the city with an attitude of "fresh eyes", we can shake loose our ingrained sense of what London and its streets are like. **As a collective, we will work to "estrange our senses" and see the streets, buildings and people differently, as if we were encountering them for the first time.** That is to say: these aren't just random walks around London - with the right frame of mind, they will be opportunities to turn the world upside down, if only for a moment! But don't take it from me - as Debord observed: *"In a dérive one or more persons during a certain period **drop their relations, their work and leisure activities, and all their other usual motives for movement and action, and let themselves be drawn by the attractions of the terrain and the encounters they find there.** Chance is a less important factor in this activity than one might think: from a dérive point of view cities have [psychogeographical](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychogeography) contours, with constant currents, fixed points and vortexes that strongly discourage entry into or exit from certain zones."* See you on the streets comrades, and remember, as [Raoul Vaneigem](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raoul_Vaneigem) once wrote: *"All space is occupied by the enemy. We are living under a permanent curfew. Not just the cops — the geometry".*

*"Envelops visitors in a mesh of threads that echoes the complexity and nuance of life itself"* – The Wick **Join us at the Hayward Gallery for a double exhibition featuring large-scale installations of immersive and emotive works: Chiharu Shiota/Threads of Life and Yin Xiuzhen/Heart to Heart** Chiharu Shiota is best-known for her large-scale installations which engulf ordinary objects – such as shoes, keys, beds, chairs and dresses – within huge web structures made from woollen thread. The resulting works are immersive and deeply emotive, often drawing from personal experience, which Shiota expands into universal human concerns such as life, death and relationships. Yin Xiuzhen is renowned for her use of secondhand clothing, concrete, food and household ephemera in her immersive installations and sculptures. She creates multimedia artworks that negotiate the spaces between memories, individuals and the globalised societies that we live in today.

Window functions have nothing to do with the Windows operating system but provide a “window” to a result set when used in SQL queries. They are powerful, set-based methods to view data in unexpected ways. Window functions provide easy, set-based solutions to solve some common problems: * Using running totals * Performing operations in intervals * Identifying data gaps and islands * Performing aggregates without losing detail Many people are confused by window functions and do not know how to use them properly. This session will explore window functions, how they work, and how to use them. Demonstrations with several examples will solidify how window functions can simplify queries and make them more powerful.

Columbus Code & Coffee is an inclusive, informal co-working session. People of all skill levels attend, and we love it that way. Many people (optionally) bring projects to work on, and many other people (optionally) socialize the entire time. It's entirely up to you! **What to Expect at the Intro Circle** \~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~ Near the beginning of the event (1:30 pm), we do a standup: * Organizer announcements, updates, and logistics Round 1 - (7 secs max): * Your name * What you're working on * What you can help others with Round 2: * Community events you wanna plug. If none, that's cool too. Round 3: * Job opportunities you're hiring for OR announce that you are looking for one. If none, that's cool. After the introduction circle, everything is self-organized! Feel free to work alone, pair up, attend one of our workshops/presentations, or mingle!
