Industry 4.0

You know you should post more. You just never know what to post. ​So you open LinkedIn, stare at the empty box, and close it again. Or you copy a format that worked for someone else, it flops, and you can't say why. ​Here's the why: it wasn't built on your data. ​This workshop fixes that at the root. In 90 minutes, live, you build your own AI content analyst. It reads your content and your competitors', shows you what actually drives engagement in your space, and tells you what to make next. ​It's also the most hands-on way to finally get how Claude actually works: connectors, skills, and projects. ​We use LinkedIn for the session. But the system isn't locked to it. Once it's yours, you can point it at any platform you post on. ​And you don't just walk away with one tool. You learn the four building blocks that make Claude genuinely useful at work: context files, connectors (MCP), skills, and projects. You learn them by using them to build the system. Once these click, you can build the next thing yourself. ​It is not a closed dashboard you rent and can't change. You build it. You own it. You rerun it whenever you want. ​**What you walk out with:** * ​A working AI content analyst, built on LinkedIn and ready to point at any platform * ​A real grip on Claude's four building blocks: context files, connectors (MCP), skills, and projects * ​A clear read on what pulls engagement in your space, and where your gaps are * ​Your next 10 post ideas, pulled from real data instead of guesswork * ​The whole thing saved as a system you own and rerun any time, not a dashboard you rent ​**Who this is for:** Consultants, marketers, founders, and operators who want to grow on LinkedIn without guessing. If you can use Google Docs, you can do this. No technical background needed. ​**Who this is NOT for:** People who want AI theory, "future of work" slides, or a demo they forget by Tuesday. This is hands-on. You leave with a thing that works and can run again next week. ​**The guarantee:** If you don't walk out with a working system you can use on Monday, I refund you. Simple. *** ## ​**How to reserve your seat** ​Seats are confirmed on payment, first come first served. 15 seats only. 1. ​Hit register on this page. 2. ​Pay AED 149 here: [https://pay.ziina.com/mehmood168/gS8kUKWoT](https://pay.ziina.com/mehmood168/gS8kUKWoT?source=app&utm_source=luma) 3. ​Once your payment lands, I confirm your spot and you get the join link. ​Your seat is held the moment payment is in. *** ## ​**Before you join (quick setup)** ​You'll get a short setup note once your seat is confirmed. Have these ready, about five minutes: * ​A Claude Pro account * ​A free Apify account (the data tool, no credit card needed) ​Do this before the session so we spend the 90 minutes building, not installing. *** ​Grab a seat. 15 spots. You leave with a system that's yours to keep, and the know-how to build the next one. *** ## ​**Host bio** ​Mehmood Ferozuddin. AI consultant, trainer, and implementation partner. 10 years as a software engineer, and for the past two years building AI agents and automations in production (healthcare voice agents in Canada, automation for businesses across Australia, Saudi, and the UAE). I train non-technical professionals and teams to use AI on their real work, and build the systems with them. Based in Dubai.

Important: Register on [AICamp website](https://www.aicamp.ai/event/eventdetails/W2026061814) is required for admission. **Description:** Welcome to the AI meetup in Washington DC. Join us for deep dive tech talks on AI, GenAI, LLMs and Agents, hands-on experiences on code labs, workshops, and networking with speakers and fellow developers. **Agenda:** \* 5:30pm\~6:00pm: Checkin, Food/drink and networking \* 6:00pm\~8:00pm: Tech talks and Q&A \* 8:00pm: Happy Hour at Courthouse Social (cross the street) **Tech Talk: Secure Developer Environments in the Age of AI Agents** **Speaker:** Patrick Brown (Coder) **Abstract:** Federal engineering teams are under pressure to ship faster while meeting some of the most demanding security and compliance requirements in the world. In this talk, Patrick Brown of Coder explores how cloud development environments (CDEs) give agencies a foundation to accelerate software delivery without sacrificing control — and why that foundation matters even more as AI-powered coding agents enter the workflow. He'll cover how CDEs keep source code off endpoints, enforce zero-trust access patterns, and provide the consistent, ephemeral infrastructure that both human developers and AI agents need to operate safely at scale. **Speakers:** Stay tuned as we are updating speakers and schedules. If you have a keen interest in speaking to our community, we invite you to submit topics for consideration: [Submit Topics](https://forms.gle/JkMt91CZRtoJBSFUA) **Sponsors:** We are actively seeking sponsors to support AI developers community.

We're going back to Kook Dogg Cafe in Reston this Wednesday. It is a restaurant-type atmosphere with a good menu and less noise. Parking is free (for three hours), but it requires going through a gate. If the machine gives you a ticket, keep it in the car for when you leave. If the machine does NOT give you a ticket, but the gate simply opens, then it will do the same going out... so, no worries. The game starts at 7 but try to be there by 6:45 to pick categories. We’ll be getting in around 6:30, and anyone is welcome to join. We do tend to leave when the game finishes, but no one else has to. Team size is limited to 6, so only sign up if you can make it – and please remember to cancel as soon as possible If something changes. Look forward to seeing you!
