### Real AI in production. Real engineers. Real stories. The [Snowflake](https://www.linkedin.com/company/snowflake-computing/) TLV community is hosting a meetup at [WSC Sports](https://www.linkedin.com/company/wsc-sports-technologies/) \- and we're going deep on what it actually takes to ship AI that works\. Whether you're you do data pipelines, model deployment, or the gap between PoC and production - this is for you. 🔒 Limited seats. First-come, first-served. ### **📋 Who Should Attend** This event is for anyone who loves to build, create, and innovate with data. Whether you’re a seasoned AI specialist, a data professional looking to streamline your workflows, or a developer just starting your journey on the Data Cloud, this is your opportunity to gain new skills, share ideas, and connect with a dynamic community. ### **🧑‍💻 Ready to build?** Spaces are limited, so secure your spot and join us for an evening of learning and collaboration. # Agenda ## 18:00 – 18:30 \| Gathering & Networking ## 18:30 – 18:55 ### LLM and Data Architecture for Decision Making #### **Amit Pollak, BI Team Leader, WSC Sports** What does it take to run AI agents in production at scale? In this session, we’ll walk through how the BI team at WSC Sports built an operational platform for Snowflake Cortex Agents- enabling anyone in the organization to ask natural-language questions against governed data models and get instant, accurate answers without writing a single line of SQL. Our guiding concept: “From YAML to Agent” — a user defines a semantic model in a simple YAML file, submits a PR, and the platform takes it all the way to a live, governed, monitored agent running in Snowflake. A practical look at what production-grade AI on top of a data platform actually looks like. ## 18:55 – 19:15 ### From Launch to Trust: Building and Maintaining Reliable Data Agents **Haim Moscovici, Data Analytics Tech Lead, WSC Sports** Building a data agent is one thing. Getting users to trust it enough to actually use it? That’s the real challenge. The 80/20 rule doesn’t work for agents answering business questions — you need to aim for excellence. In this session, we’ll explore the reliability standard that actually matters, and how to achieve it through a phased rollout approach focused on validation, monitoring, and continuous improvement. ## 19:15 – 19:30 \| Break & Networking ## 19:30 – 20:10 ### When CoCo Meets Claude: Next-Gen AI for Your Snowflake Data **Matan Sarig, Senior Solution Engineer, Snowflake** What happens when you combine Snowflake’s native Cortex Code (CoCo) with the deep reasoning of Anthropic Claude? You get data agents that actually know what they’re doing. We’ll look at the best ways to run CoCo — whether you're in Snowsight, the CLI, your Desktop IDE, or using a direct Claude integration. We’ll check out the latest Agent Skills to see how easy it is to give your assistant custom superpowers, and demo real-world tasks where the Claude + CoCo combo brings significantly more value than standard AI tools. ## 20:10 – 20:30 \| Mingling & Networking

**Join Us for PyData Meetup @ Melio!** Get ready for insightful sessions, networking with the PyData community, and, of course, pizza and beer! A big thanks to **Melio** for hosting us and supporting the community. **📅 Details** Date: Sunday, June 14th, 2026 Time: 18:00 - 21:00 Location: Melio Office, Hagag Towers, North Tower, Floor 32, HaArba’a St 28, Tel Aviv Language: This meetup will be held in Hebrew **🕒 Agenda** 18:00: Gathering, snacks, and drinks 🍕🍻 18:30: Welcome words 18:45: **A Match Made in Heaven: LLM Judgment at Vector-Search Speed,** Shon Mendelson, Staff AI Scientist @ Intuit 19:15: **Dr. Data: How We Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the AI Bomb**, Dr. Adi Sarid, CEO @ Sarid Research 19:45: **Cost-Efficient AI Systems in Practice,** Michael Levinger, Senior AI Engineer @ Melio **🎤 Featured Sessions** **A Match Made in Heaven: LLM Judgment at Vector-Search Speed** **Speaker: Shon Mendelson, Staff AI Scientist @ Intuit** Last year, I spent far too long chasing a stubborn data quirk: why our system couldn't see that “The Law Offices of John Miller” and “Miller, John S. PLLC” were the same entity. It led to a bigger question: can you achieve LLM-level judgment at vector-search speeds? Traditional vector search is fast, but often misses subtle context like this, while relying entirely on LLMs is too slow and costly for production at scale. In this talk, I’ll share how we bridged that gap at Intuit with a hybrid system that combines fast vector search, efficient small transformer-based models, and fine-tuned SLMs. The result is a system capable of handling millions of weekly entity comparisons, significantly boosting recall while maintaining precision levels comparable to traditional methods. **Dr. Data: How We Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the AI Bomb** **Speaker: Dr. Adi Sarid, CEO @ Sarid Research** When GenAI dropped, our quant market research agency had a beautifully naive thought: "We can finally replace all our human labelers with a simple API call!" Spoiler alert: Scaling AI without hallucinations isn't quite that simple. Join us for a brutally honest, technical look at our data science team's journey from prompt-panic to AI-powered productivity. We’ll share our biggest wins and hardest lessons regarding evaluation frameworks, the rapid obsolescence of custom packages, and the newfound "full-stack audacity" of modern data scientists. **Cost-Efficient AI Systems in Practice** **Speaker: Michael Levinger, Senior AI Engineer @ Melio** Deploying large language models and AI agents in real-world systems requires a constant trade-off between cost, latency, and performance. This talk explores how to optimize LLM- and agent-based systems using techniques such as caching, model routing/cascades, tuning, RAG, and distillation—significantly reducing costs without sacrificing quality. Through a case study of an ATO-agent system, we’ll also cover practical approaches to cost estimation, monitoring, and budgeting. In addition, we’ll compare leading industry models—such as Gemini, Claude, and GPT—focusing on differences in response speed, cost efficiency, and real-world performance, and how to choose the right model for each use case within broader agentic workflows. **🚀 RSVP** Space is limited – RSVP now to secure your spot! We look forward to seeing you there! **📍 How to find us:** Enter the North Tower in Hagag Towers (Ha'Arbaa 28), go up to floor 32, and find us there. **We highly recommend using public transport, but if you’re coming by car, [here is a list of nearby parking lots](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15GIvUZWui78k4b0EyikjvzNMnDede4lY/edit?gid=751370004#gid=751370004).**

**AI OR DIE** **Product Design Meetup @Torq** 📅 June 10, 2026 📍 Torq Offices - 10th Floor (HaMelacha St 3, Tel Aviv-Yafo) 🌐 [https://torq.io/](https://torq.io/) We’re very excited to invite you to our meetup on June 10 at the Torq offices. Of course we’ll talk about AI - but the real focus is on you: how product designers continue to lead in the age of AI. We’ll talk about how to create agents that work like teammates and help us move faster, without compromising on quality, depth, or craft. We’ll share real examples of scalable ways of working with AI, and practical tools we’ve built and integrated into our day-to-day design process. And of course, we’ll dive into user experience in the age of AI: how intentional friction creates better outcomes as AI experiences become more seamless and invisible, how overconfidence in AI outputs changes user behavior, and how design interventions help users make better decisions. 20–30 minutes per talk. Practical, short, no fluff. **Agenda:** **18:00 - Mingling** Beers & Pizza 🍕 **18:30 - Opening** Torq intro **18:55 - Session #1** **Moishy Neulander (Torq)** Turning AI prototypes into reusable design assets: Changing the way product teams collaborate, prototype, and build with AI. **19:15 - Session #2** **Hanni Buskila (UXTRA)** How agents became my research team: How AI agents can turn research into real design foundations - from research insights to final UI - and what separates real force multipliers from hype. **19:35 - Break ️☕️** **19:50 - Session #3** **Noa Sabar Dvoskin (Ex-Amazon)** Friction by design: What happens when systems optimize without understanding user intent, and how intentional friction gives users back control at the moments that count. **20:10 - Session #4** **Adi Livne ([monday.com](http://monday.com))** Designing for AI: Practical design principles for building clear, useful, and responsible AI experiences. **20:30 - Q&A + Closing** Come for the AI, stay for the people ✨ **Important:** RSVP does not guarantee entry. Due to limited office capacity, attendance is curated and subject to organizer approval. Approved attendees will receive a confirmation message before the event.
