We’re keeping the momentum going into February with a trip to the **Singer Tavern** near Old Street this month. This place has quite the history - built in 1929 as the headquarters for the Singer Sewing Machine Company. They’ve kept the original Art Deco feel and the green-and-white tiling, but these days it’s a great Shoreditch pub with a solid rotation of craft beers. See you there **​What is Product Pints, anyway?** ​It's simple: Forget the stuffy presentations, Product Pints is all about meaningful connections and stimulating conversations for product people. Our diverse crowd includes everyone from aspiring PMs to seasoned CPOs, entrepreneurs, developers, designers, and tech enthusiasts. ​Need advice on a tricky problem? Curious what other PMs are building? Or just want to share a beer with your peers? This is the perfect opportunity to grow your network and launch some genuinely great chats! **​P.S.

Tech Built World returns to tackle oversaturation in Construction Tech - from the sheer volume of tools flooding the market to choice paralysis, AI hype confusion, and why adoption remains frustratingly low. We'll explore the different flavours of tech available (big tech platforms, ConTech startups, everyday tools, proprietary in-house solutions, and even the informal tech people use on site) and why the industry struggles to take the plunge despite it being simpler than most people think. Our guide is Alex Sivokhin, Director and BIM Manager at VirTex and member of buildingSMART International. Alex will share his experiences from both sides of the fence - building automation tools and implementing tech at major firms like Bilfinger Engineering. He'll give us insight into why the value of tech isn't being appreciated and what it takes to cut through the noise. Don't miss the Discussion Time where everyone shares their thoughts on adoption barriers, cultural resistance, and whether we're overthinking this whole thing. We're eager to hear your perspectives. Here's the essentials: Futureheads, Work.Life, 120 Aldersgate St, EC1A 4JQ Doors Open: 6:30pm ⏰ Event Start: 7:00pm Get ready for an evening of honest conversations, fresh connections (new and familiar faces always welcome) and brilliant food and drinks thanks to Futureheads ❤️❤️❤️. ### **THE THEME- CONTECH IS... OVERSATURATED?** Construction tech is drowning in options. Big tech platforms, ConTech startups, everyday tools, proprietary solutions built by in-house innovation teams, and even the informal tech people cobble together on site. The sheer volume is staggering. The problem? People aren't adopting any of it. Choice paralysis has set in. AI hype adds to the confusion - everyone's shouting about what their tools do but nobody knows what AI means anymore or which tools deliver real value versus empty promises. The industry is too big, too lumbering, and culturally resistant to change. People think adoption is complicated when it's simpler than they realise. The value isn't being appreciated because results take time and the effort feels overwhelming. So we're stuck. Bombarded with options but frozen in place. The tech exists but nobody's brave enough to take the dive and start using it. Join us as we explore whether ConTech is genuinely oversaturated or whether we just need to stop overthinking and start doing. **\-\-\- THE SPEAKER \- ALEX SIVOKHIN \-\-\-** Alex Sivokhin is the Director and BIM Manager at VirTex, where he creates BIM automation solutions for clients globally. He works closely with architects, engineering consultancies, real estate developers, and manufacturers. As a Product Domain Volunteer at buildingSMART International and Mentor at Women in BIM, he advances digitalisation and supports emerging talent in the AEC sector. Alex is fourth generation in the construction industry. Before moving into BIM and tech, he worked hands-on as a land surveyor, structural engineer, and site engineer. He later became a BIM Coordinator and Project Manager at Bilfinger Engineering (a major industrial services firm with 30,000 employees and €4.5 billion revenue), implementing BIM technology and automation on large-scale infrastructure projects across Central and Eastern Europe. His experience spans from the ground up - from site work to building tech products and driving adoption in traditional construction firms. Through his weekly newsletter Digital Construction Digest, he tracks the AEC digitalisation landscape and shares insights on automation, AI, and industry trends. LinkedIn Profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aleksandr-sivokhin/ **\-\-\- ABOUT TECH BUILT WORLD \-\-\-** Tech Built World, the world's first construction tech specific meetup for product people, aims to highlight ConTech's potential and human-centricity. Unlike other meetups, we feature a keynote speaker and workshop-style discussions to foster informed dialogue so all attendees always get an opportunity to contribute their hot takes. Despite the construction industry's significant size and profitability, its slow tech adoption presents disruption opportunities. Our community of Product Managers, UX Designers, Developers, Product Owners and Founders are people passionate about accelerating change in ConTech. Even if you're unfamiliar with ConTech, you're welcome to join us in envisioning the future - exciting eh?!

Over the past year, generative AI has gone from novelty to infrastructure. But while most people are still treating tools like ChatGPT as clever calculators, a small group are quietly rebuilding how they work around agentic systems, automated workflows, and personal knowledge bases. This talk is for anyone who suspects there is a big gap between “using AI” and actually being at the frontier. In this session, our own host Dr Manuel Corpas will share **10 concrete patterns** he has used to build a personal AI stack that now runs 24/7 alongside his research and teaching. Rather than a product demo or a hype talk, this will be a practitioner’s tour of what changes when you move away from simply ad-hoc promptings. Manuel will keep the examples grounded in genomics, health data and academic work, with patterns directly transferable to industry, clinical and data‑intensive roles. There will be time for Q&A and informal discussion afterwards (as usual, we’ll migrate to the pub after the main session). **About the speaker** Dr Manuel Corpas is a globally recognized genomicist and health data scientist whose work has advanced the frontiers of equity in precision medicine. His research spans population genomics, pharmacogenomics, and biobanking, with a longstanding commitment to underserved and underrepresented populations. As President of the Spanish Congress of Genomic Medicine, he leads the largest Spanish-speaking platform for genomic health equity. He has been a driving force behind major sequencing efforts such as the Peruvian Genome Project, which expands global reference datasets to include diverse Indigenous and Latin American populations. He has contributed to widely adopted clinical and open‑source tools, including DECIPHER for rare disease diagnosis and BioJS for genomic data visualization. Approximate schedule (@University of Westminster – Cavendish Campus): * 18:30 – doors open * 18:45 – chitchat, announcements * 19:00 – talk starts * 19:45 – talk ends, adjourn to pub Please RSVP at least the day before, and make sure your Meetup name is recognisable (e.g. “J Smith” rather than “weaselstabber”) so reception can match you to the attendee list and direct you to the room.

**Google Analytics Alternatives** Is it finally time to make the switch away from Google Analytics? Two-and-a-half years ago Jason Packer asked this question at Columbus Web Analytics Wednesday. Since then: Google’s Universal Analytics has been sunset, we’ve changed our name to Columbus Data & Analytics Wednesday, and Jason has released two editions of his book “Google Analytics Alternatives”. Fresh off the release of the 2nd edition of his book, we thought it was time to re-open this conversation. While people love to complain about it, GA’s market share has remained relatively constant (at least in the United States). Why is that? You won’t find any complaints about GA4 in this talk, but rather an overview of what’s currently available in the market and how to frame your decision-making process. We’ll also be giving out some free copies of Jason’s book! So even if you’ve got a “GA4Lyfe” tattoo (no judgement), there’s free books to go with the free pizza and beer.

This is a free, in person meeting. Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse. Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well. Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship. Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action? Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships! Break free from self imposed limitations Here we will discuss: • How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes. • Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you? • Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it? • Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love? • Fights & arguments - what's really behind them? • What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others? • How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change? • Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them? • How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about? • How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career? Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person. Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life. We look forward to having you join us! This class is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.

Our nonprofit is built by professionals from a wide range of industries and is made up entirely of small- and mediumbusiness representatives—never large tech companies. We provide a counterbalance to big corporate influence, focusing instead on how AI can benefit businesses and the world at large. **What’s Happening?** ***The inaugural AI Freedom Alliance Summit.*** This full-day event will explore how we can ensure AI is adopted responsibly through shared ethical standards that empower humanity. The summit will feature interactive and educational sessions led by thought leaders, technologists, policymakers, and advocates who are passionate about making AI fair, transparent, and beneficial for everyone. **Why Attend?** Learn about the legal and technical challenges with implementing AI solutions within your organization. Build better solutions while protecting your organization from legal and compliance risks. And learn how to think strategically about AI as a differentiation tool for your business. This summit is highly recommended for C-Suite leaders to learn as well as interact with each other and our sponsors.
