Hi DESG Community, It's been a while since we last met on Sep 2025. So much has changed and AI agents has been the talk of the time for past 6 months. For this month, we have Chin Hwee who will talk about: ***Your Data is Late Again! Handling Late-Arriving Data in the Modern AI Data Stack*** *"When we say we are processing the "latest" data in the data warehouse, which timestamp are we referring to?* *Late-arriving data can happen due to operational and technical reasons that may require data corrections, posing challenges in ensuring timely and accurate reporting of point-in-time data that drive AI systems and decision-making. In this talk, I will be exploring approaches on how we can design data systems and history-preserving data models that can handle late-arriving data in the modern AI data stack."* **Expected agenda:** **6.30pm - 7.15pm** \- Registration\, Pizzas & Networking **7.15pm - 7.20pm** \- Introduction **7.20pm - 8:00pm** \- Talk by Chin Hwee **8.00pm – 8.30pm** \- Q&A **8.30pm –** End of event Hope to you all soon!

Upper Seletar Reservoir was formerly known as the *Seletar Reservoir*, before the completion of the [Lower Seletar Reservoir](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lower_Seletar_Reservoir) near [Nee Soon](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yishun), formed by the [damming](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dam) up of the [mouth](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/River_mouth) of Seletar River, in 1986. The Seletar Reservoir was built to meet the surge in water demand after [World War I](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_I). Built while [D. J. Murnane](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D._J._Murnane) was Municipal Water Engineer, a contemporary description of the project scope and construction in 1939 is included in the footnote.[\[1\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upper_Seletar_Reservoir#cite_note-1) The construction work was overseen by Murnane's deputy F. G. Hill. It was completed in 1940 and officially opened on 10 August 1969 by [Princess Alexandra](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princess_Alexandra,_The_Honourable_Lady_Ogilvy). Lower Seletar Reservoir was constructed under the Sungei Seletar/[Bedok](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bedok) Water Scheme, completed in 1986. The scheme involved the [damming of Sungei Seletar](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yishun_Dam) to form Lower Seletar Reservoir, the creation of [Bedok Reservoir](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bedok_Reservoir) from a former sand [quarry](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quarry) and the construction of Bedok Waterworks. Its unique feature was the construction of nine stormwater collection stations to tap the storm [runoffs](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_runoff) of the surrounding urbanised catchments. Eight of these collection stations are ponds at [Yishun](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yishun), [Tampines](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tampines), [Bedok](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bedok) and Yan Kit. Join us as we explore the Seletar Reservoirs! There's captivating greenery, Instagram-worthy pictures, and a "Rocket Tower" to be explored! The most eye-catching feature at Upper Seletar Reservoir Park is its futuristic lookout tower. This was built in 1969, the same year that astronauts from the NASA’s Apollo 11 space mission landed on the moon’s lunar surface. It was the age of exploration and space fever was gripping the world.

**Confidence in Bloom: How Creativity Builds Confidence** What happens when creativity becomes an intentional practice? In this month’s Confidence Lab, we’ll gather at **Petals That Inspire: The Flourish Studio** for an evening exploring the connection between creativity and confidence. How making with our hands, engaging our senses, and allowing space for expression can shift how we see ourselves and what we believe is possible. Our featured speaker, **Amanda Lorenzetti**, owner of Petals That Inspire, will share how creativity has shaped her own confidence journey and why creative environments play such a powerful role in well-being, resilience, and personal growth. Drawing from her work leading an experience-driven floral studio and a community-centered workforce development program, Amanda will reflect on creativity as both a personal and collective catalyst. Amanda will also guide us through a **hands-on floral design experience**, creating a fresh arrangement in a wide mouth mason jar. No prior floral experience is needed, just curiosity and a willingness to engage the process. This evening is an invitation to slow down, create, and reconnect with the part of yourself that grows through care, attention, and imagination. You’ll leave with a floral arrangement to take home, and a deeper understanding of how confidence can be cultivated through creative practices. **Featured Speaker: Amanda Lorenzetti** Amanda Lorenzetti is the owner and founder of [Petals That Inspire](https://www.petalsthatinspire.com/) and The Flourish Studio, a social enterprise florist based in Columbus, Ohio. She brings more than a decade of experience in wedding and event sales, paired with hands-on expertise in floral and event design. Amanda’s connection to the floral industry began early, spending time alongside her godmother, a professional florist on the East Coast. After earning her business degree, she returned to her hometown in Connecticut to work as a floral and event designer, blending creative artistry with strong operational and client-focused skills. In 2020, Amanda returned to the floral industry with a renewed purpose, driven by a desire to build a business rooted in creativity, community impact, and sustainability. During this pivotal time, she founded Petals That Inspire—an innovative floral concept that reimagines the traditional florist model by combining event florals, workshops, and experiential offerings with a mission-centered approach to workforce development. Today, Petals That Inspire is a thriving social enterprise known for its thoughtful design, educational experiences, and commitment to empowering young adults facing barriers to entry in the workforce. Amanda is deeply passionate about building businesses that are both profitable and purpose-driven, and she leverages her strong business acumen to create a scalable & sustainable model that inspires creativity while giving back to the community. **What is Confidence Lab?** Confidence Lab is a monthly community experience for bold, thoughtful leaders building confidence from the inside out. Whether you’re launching a business, leading a team, navigating change, or simply striving to show up more fully—you belong here. Our work demands clarity, courage, and conviction—but the pace of daily life can erode our sense of self. Confidence Lab creates space to reflect, reconnect, and grow with others doing purpose-driven work. It’s designed for entrepreneurs, nonprofit leaders, creatives, corporate professionals, activists, and anyone ready to lead with authenticity and impact. ***Please note:*** *All are welcome! If cost is a concern, please use promo code PUBLIC to access a free ticket—we want you to join us.*
