A hands-on session exploring n8n, the open source workflow automation tool. We will install it, build a simple automation, and experiment with connecting services and local AI models. **About the Event** Let’s Hello World is a simple idea. We pick an open source tool and begin. Not a deep dive. Not a polished workshop. Just a focused session to install it, try it, and build something small together. The goal is to get past the hardest step: beginning. **n8n** n8n is an open source workflow automation tool that lets you connect services, APIs, and scripts into repeatable workflows. During this session we will: \- Run n8n locally \- Explore the interface \- Build a basic workflow \- Connect to at least one real service No prior experience required. If you have been meaning to try n8n but have not made the time, this is your chance. Bring a laptop and curiosity. Time: from 1PM to 3PM Location: Room GR03, Melbourne Business School Online: electronworkshop.com.au/goto/venue Map: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ww9wb1pHpvLRkAt99

Instead of having coffee while watching Netflix, we’re coming together as a community, connecting in person, sharing tips, providing support wherever we can AND having coffee together ☕. * **What We’re About** You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with, so join us — and be part of a community that rises above circumstances and creates opportunities. Inspire and be inspired by those who make things happen. It's a relaxed, organic space to connect with like-minded people and network—genuinely talking, learning from each other, and connecting over shared interests. * **What to Expect** Casual Meetups: We gather semi-regularly at a local café to chat about everything from stepping outside your comfort zone to business ideas, creative projects, and building a life aligned with your purpose. It’s relaxed, easy, and welcoming—no need to have anything “figured out.” An Easy-Going Space: We keep things simple and low-pressure. Once everyone arrives, we ease in with some light conversation and naturally break into smaller groups. Networking: Feel free to introduce yourself or let people know what you're working on if you feel like it. And if anyone wants to quickly shout out what they’re working on or looking for before we settle in, go for it—it’s a great way to spark new conversations. * **Host Support** If you’d like a one-on-one chat with me about your business, just tap me on the shoulder. I’ll be floating around and happy to make time for you. **Quick note for the day:** Depending on the weather, we might go for a walk around Blackburn Lake. Just remember to wear comfy shoes :)

The theme for this week is *“From First Conversation to Friendship.”* This week, we’ll have fun trying out **simple ways** to turn a first hello into a **real friendship**. Through **activities** and **conversation prompts** you’ll get to **meet others**, **share** **stories**, and see what connections **naturally** happen. There's **no right or wrong** — just a **relaxed space** to **chat**, **laugh**, and **connect**. Bring a pen and your **journal**, and get ready to meet new people and maybe make a **friend or two**! We’d love to have you there!

**PLEASE NOTE RECENT LOCATION CHANGE & ATTENDANCE FEE!** Please join us this Sunday as we discuss is equality compatible with excellence. **We will meet at the Queensberry Hotel, 593 Swanston Street, Carlton (100m north of previous location) at 2pm for a 2:15pm start sharp.** **We kindly ask attendees to pay $5 to attend to help with MeetUp costs & venue costs. This is not mandatory, but if you are a regular member it would be appreciated. Any extra moneys will go towards buying food and drinks for the table. The venue also expects us to spend money as a group, so grateful if you could buy a drink from the venue.** There is no pre-requisite preparation necessary, nor a philosophical background, all that is required is a curious mind. These discussions are both a Socrates Cafe style discussion and lively metaphysical dojo, in the spirit of learning and friendly debate, so please feel free to challenge assumptions and be prepared to have your own assumptions challenged. Find below some questions to consider, however these are free-ranging events and the below serve as a springboard for the discussion. \- Equality of what \- outcome\, opportunity\, dignity\, status\, political power? \- Excellence in what \- occupation\, sport\, art\, moral character? \- Is excellence inherently hierachical? \- Is it fair that some children get enormous advantages \(mostly non\-financial\)? \- Does meritocracy fairly reward talent\, or does it entrench advantage? \- Can democratic equality coexist with technocratic expertise? \- What have philosophers had to say about this topic \(Nietzsche\, Rawls\, Sandel etc\)? \- What do the experiences of other countries reveal about this topic? \- Are the solutions different for children and adults or if we are thinking on a 20 year time frame\, not this year? \- Can a society maximise equality and excellence at the same time\, or must one give way?

**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 **Abstract** TBD **YouTube Link** TBA
