**普及禪修課程 黃毅弘老師主講** **「拼圖出，理想的命運」** **每堂課為獨立單元，不需報名，歡迎大家參加。** 如果我們理解業的法則，會理解如何透過捨棄導致不幸的惡行及修習帶來快樂的善行，控制自己的未來經歷。 正如一位園丁種下豌豆的種子，一定是長出豌豆而不是麥子，當他甚麼都沒有種時，一定甚麼都不會長。因此，當我們進行善行，一定會經驗快樂的結果；當我們從事惡行，一定會經驗痛苦的結果。 在這系列的課程，我們將探索如何把佛法融入自己所有的日常活動當中。最終，得以實現我們的基本願望 — 得到快樂並遠離痛苦。 27/3 去舊迎新 **黃毅弘老師**跟隨尊貴的格西格桑嘉措仁波切修習佛法逾十五年，是位現代噶當巴修行人。現職為專業攝影師。他對噶當佛法的信心及多年來修持現代佛法的經驗，啓發他積極鼓勵別人運用佛法，來解決日常生活中遇到的問題。 歡迎大家隨喜功德，建議捐助：每課 $50。所有捐款均用於中心的運作及發展，為大眾提供學習珍貴佛法的機會。 詳情: https://www.meditation.hk/2021/twcgp/ #現代佛法 #禪修課程

Join us for dinner and discussion about queer books! For our next book, we will be reading **‘In Memoriam’** by **Alice Winn.** **Blurb** In 1914, war feels far away to Henry Gaunt and Sidney Ellwood. They're too young to enlist, and anyway, Gaunt is fighting his own private battle - an all-consuming infatuation with the dreamy, poetic Ellwood - not having a clue that his best friend is in love with him, always has been. When Gaunt's mother asks him to enlist in the British army to protect the family from anti-German attacks, he signs up immediately, relieved to escape his overwhelming feelings. But Ellwood and their classmates soon follow him into the horrors of trenches. Though Ellwood and Gaunt find fleeting moments of solace in one another, their friends are dying in front of them, and at any moment they could be next. **An epic tale of the devastating tragedies of war and the forbidden romance that blooms in its grip, *In Memoriam* is a breathtaking debut.** **The Plan** 19:30 Meeting @ the restaurant 19:45 Dinner & discussion 21:15 Choosing a book for May 21:30 End **Dinner** The name of the restaurant will be announced in the WhatsApp group chat. **What to do** 1\.

I discovered the answer when my own YouTube project failed the Google Decision Tree, proving I was using a helicopter to cross the street. To solve this, I built an Agent Architect squad using the Agent Development Kit (ADK) for TypeScript, moving from fragile prompts to a structured Intelligent Assembly Line. This talk explores how a squad of agents evaluates your ideas through four key patterns: a loop for self-correcting discovery, a smooth handoff between specialized agents, a logic check to catch bad ideas early and save money, and a final report for strategic advice. We will examine the visual flows and reasoning required to build a system that thinks for itself, ensuring your AI projects are truly agent-shaped and cost-effective. ————————————————————— **Jeannie Lam 林靜莉（"莉莉菇"）** 電視主持、電台DJ、活動司儀及KOL Jeannie最初於網上媒體 unwire.hk 擔任記者，開始接觸內容製作及幕前演出。後得恩師邀請，從此展開幕前之路。 現時我身兼多重身份，穿梭於傳統媒體同數碼平台之間，持續探索內容創作及表演的更多可能性。 **Topic: 從網媒記者到電視主持：如何用網上影響力打開幕前之門** Jeannie 會分享如何透過網上媒體記者的身份，結合網上平台影響力，逐步獲得電視台、電台及活動司儀的演出機會。從幕後走到幕前，除了專業知識，網絡上的個人品牌同樣是關鍵。 ————————————————————— **ChuChu Carmen** YouTube自媒體創作及教育者 (超班教室Super Class創辦人) My YouTube Channel: "Chuchu豬 TV" (@chuchuchutv) 累積超過100+間品牌企業/ 學校合作邀請, 提供YouTube/ 影片製作及AI自媒體等教學培訓及商業合作宣傳 頻道影片累積超過10000+個好評及讚好, 累積收看次數超過100萬次, 深受各觀眾及學員喜愛 超過500+學員, 從IP流量 -> 變現, 打造YouTube自媒體一人網絡事業 **Topic: 從打工仔到YouTube自媒體導師：AI時代打造個人IP的致富密碼** ————————————————————— **Bonnie Cheung** Chief Curiosity Officer 首席探索者, Yolo 街 YouTube channel Bonnie is an investment and technology professional with over 20 years of experience across the US and Asia. She is the creator of YOLO 街, a YouTube channel that was recognized as one of the Top Trending Channels in 2025 for Hong Kong. The channel provides information on new technologies to the Cantonese-speaking population. Her career began in the US, where she led large-scale digital transformations for Fortune 500 companies at Deloitte and IBM, including AT&T, HP, and T-Mobile. She later transitioned into finance, earning her CFA charter and working as an investment associate in Private Equity before moving into industry operations. As Head of Strategic Planning for the Zuellig Group, a $12 billion healthcare distributor, she managed technology adoption and innovation across 13 countries. In venture capital, Bonnie was a Venture Partner at 500 Startups, where she established the firm’s first blockchain-focused accelerator track. Her early-stage investments included Solana, which has reached a market valuation of $44 billion. She has since moved between building and investing, serving as Chief of Strategy for the Web3 startup and as an Operations Partner at Race Capital, supporting founders in the AI and data infrastructure sectors. Bonnie holds a double major in Engineering and Economics from Dartmouth College. An avid traveler, she has visited over 50 countries, from trekking the Sahara to navigating Patagonia, and wondering through the streets of Pompeii. Bonnie 是一位擁有超過 20 年跨越美亞兩地經驗的投資與科技專家。她是 YouTube 頻道「YOLO 街」的創辦人，該頻道更榮獲 2025 年度香港 YouTube「十大熱門創作者」之一。頻道致力於為廣東話社群打破語言隔閡，解構及分享全球最尖端的科技資訊。 Bonnie 的職業生涯始於美國，曾在 Deloitte 及 IBM 帶領多項大型數位轉型項目，服務對象包括 AT&T、HP 及 T-Mobile 等財富 500 強企業。其後她轉戰金融界，取得 CFA 特許資格並於私募股權投資 (Private Equity) 擔任投資經理，隨後投身產業營運。她曾出任年營收達 120 億美元的醫療保健分銷商 Zuellig Group 的亞太區戰略規劃主管，負責推動旗下 13 個國家的科技應用與創新。 在風險投資領域，Bonnie 曾擔任 500 Startups 的創業合伙人，並創辦了該機構首個以區塊鏈為主題的加速器項目。她早期的投資項目包括 Solana，該項目的市值目前已達 440 億美元。此後，她持續穿梭於「初創實戰」與「風險投資」之間，曾出任 Web3 初創公司的首席戰略官，並於 Race Capital 擔任營運合伙人，支援 AI 及數據基礎設施領域的創業者。 Bonnie 畢業於Dartmouth College，擁有工程學與經濟學雙學位。她熱愛深度旅遊，足跡遍及全球 50 多個國家，當中包括遠征撒哈拉沙漠、探索巴塔哥尼亞高原以及漫步龐貝古城。 **Topic: The Great Equalizer: Breaking Career and Generational Patterns with AI** **AI — 終極平等化工具：打破職涯與世代的既定慣性** For a long time, we have been told that our career "patterns" are set by our early training. If you didn’t study film, you couldn't be a film creator. If you didn't study engineering, you couldn't be a technologist. We were trapped by the "skill gap." In this talk, Bonnie challenges this rigid structure by sharing her personal pattern break. Despite a 20-year career in venture capital and engineering, Bonnie had zero video production/ media skills. Yet, using AI as her "production crew," she built YOLO 街, which became a 2025 Top Trending YouTube channel in Hong Kong. In the age of AI, prior “learned skills” are no longer the bottleneck. If you have the curiosity, AI provides the technical execution, allowing for radical career pivots in both directions. This isn't just about making videos—it’s about a fundamental shift in how we acquire power in the workforce. She will demonstrate how AI acts as a "Capability Equalizer" that works in both directions: In the AI era, your curiosity is your only real limit. If a venture capitalist can become a top creator with no prior skills, then the reverse is also true: the tools to become a technologist or a strategist are now in everyone's hands. 長期以來，社會一直告訴我們：你的職業「慣性」是由早年的訓練決定的。如果你沒讀過電影，你就無法成為創作人；如果你沒讀過工程，你就無法成為科技專家。我們一直被「技能鴻溝」所困。 在這次演講中，Bonnie 將透過分享她個人的「慣性突破」來挑戰這種僵化的結構。儘管在風險投資和工程領域擁有 20 年的經驗，Bonnie 在影片製作和媒體創作方面卻是零經驗、零技能。然而，憑藉 AI 作為她的「製作團隊」，她創立了「YOLO 街」，並在 2025 年成為香港 YouTube 的「十大熱門創作者」之一。 在 AI 時代，過去所謂的「學習技能」已不再是瓶頸。只要你擁有好奇心，AI 就能為你提供技術執行力，讓你實現雙向的職涯大轉型。 這不僅僅是關於拍片，更是一場關於我們如何在職場中獲得「能力」的根本性變革。Bonnie 將展示 AI 如何扮演「能力平等化工具」(Capability Equalizer) 的雙向角色. 在 AI 時代，好奇心是你唯一的限制。如果一個風投專家可以在零技能的情況下成為頂尖創作者，那麼反之亦然——成為科技專家或策略家的工具，現在已掌握在每個人手中。 ————————————————————— **Dr. Pui Wah Choi** Founder & CEO, WomenX Biotech Dr. Pui-Wah Choi is a pioneering scientist and entrepreneur dedicated to transforming women’s health through innovative biotechnology. After completing her postdoctoral training at Harvard Medical School, she founded WomenX Biotech Limited in Hong Kong, focusing on groundbreaking health solutions tailored specifically for women. WomenX aims to revolutionize disease screening with PadX-HPV, a sanitary pad that detects HPV—the primary cause of cervical cancer—from menstrual blood. This non-invasive technology seeks to increase HPV screening rates across Asia from a mere 30% to an ambitious 80%, addressing cultural barriers and busy schedules that often hinder women's access to essential health services. The potential of WomenX’s pads extends beyond HPV detection; they are also designed to monitor reproductive health, fertility, and microbiome status, offering a holistic approach to women’s health management. This innovation empowers women to better understand their bodies and make informed health decisions. In January 2025, WomenX introduced PadX-HPV, the first non-invasive product in Hong Kong to detect HPV types linked to cervical cancer directly from menstrual blood through a sanitary pad. With an accuracy rate of 99.2%, PadX has been in high demand since its launch, selling out multiple times. In addition to her emphasis on technological progress, Dr. Choi is deeply committed to creating social impact and empowering women. This year, she will install 100 vending machines for sanitary pads throughout Hong Kong, placing them in schools, shopping malls, and NGOs. On one hand, this initiative fosters a more gender-friendly environment; on the other, the machines will also provide educational materials on menstrual health, menstrual shame, and first menstruation management. More importantly, the sanitary pad vending machine project will create thousands of job opportunities for low-income and single mothers, allowing them to regain economic participation without sacrificing caregiving responsibilities. Dr Choi was selected as the Prestige Women or Power 2025, Jessica Most successful women, Tatler Front & Female and Foundess 2025. Additionally, WomenX Biotech won the Slingshot competition in the biomed domain (under Singapore Enterprise), achieving the 0.17% tier, as well as the Standard Chartered SC WIN competition and multiple international innovation championships. **Topic: The Ripple Effect: One Woman's Journey to Empower Thousands** ————————————————————— **YeeLing Ng** Consultant, Acument An IT Consultant at Acument Group with a unique background in both engineering and education. As a certified CBAP and PSPO, she combines rigorous problem-solving with a passion for people. Her journey from a young mathlete to a Hong Kong University engineering graduate fuels her mission to empower diverse talent in technology. **Topic: 《打破框架：馬來西亞女孩在香港科技圈的蛻變》** Challenging the stereotype of who belongs in tech. The speaker traces her own path from a school mathlete to an IT Consultant, demonstrating how curiosity transformed her from a pure engineer into a people-focused problem solver. This presentation is a call for all, regardless of gender or age, to break self-imposed limits and adapt, proving that the tech world needs diverse minds to thrive.

Our book for March 2026 is *Starter Villain,* by John Scalzi. *Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan.* *Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie.* *But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits. Jake had enemies, and now they're coming after Charlie. His uncle might have been a stand-up, old-fashioned kind of villain, but these are the real thing: rich, soulless predators backed by multinational corporations and venture capital.* *It's up to Charlie to win the war his uncle started against a league of supervillains. But with unionized dolphins, hyper-intelligent talking spy cats, and a terrifying henchperson at his side, going bad is starting to look pretty good.* This month’s discussion will be held at Commaa in Sheung Wan on the 29th of March @ 2:00 pm. Please note: the café asks that for large groups, guests buy at least one beverage per person ($60 minimum). They have a selection of sweet treats, coffees, teas, and other drinks available for purchase. After the discussion, we will choose the next book by group vote. Please bring your suggestions for future books!

Date: 28 March 2026 (Sat) Time: 16:00 - 18:00 \*HKT Coordinator: Ming Tou, Alex Au Light Refreshments will be available! This is a **workshop** for Python IoT. Please bring along your laptop with **Python3 installed with enough battery**! *Winners will get a small prize as an accomplishment.* Please fill in the form for admission: https://forms.gle/khyqQMPhv3i9QaUH7 **Topic: Project Cool Down: Build a Smart AC AI with Python 🥵🧊** Are you melting? Let’s fix that with code. 🫠 In this hands-on workshop, we are turning a standard Python IoT tutorial into a gamified Smart Home Engineering Challenge! You don’t need to bring a physical AC. We have built several localized "Smart Home Servers" (Raspberry Pi 4 clusters) that will simulate a real-world environment. You will compete in teams to write the ultimate Python control script. **What You Will Do:** * **Level 1 (Hello World):** Connect to our local cluster API and get the virtual AC running. * **Level 2 (Wallet Saver):** Electricity is expensive! Integrate the API to check real-world HK weather. Only turn the AC on if it's actually hot outside. * **Level 3 (Compressor Protection):** Real-world GPS is noisy. Code hysteresis and cool-down algorithms to protect the AC compressor from exploding due to rapid On/Off toggling. * **Level 4 (The Boss Fight):** The Wife Acceptance Factor (W.A.F). Handle complex, multi-user logic to ensure the AC stays on if someone else is still at home! Your code will be tested against our "Chaos Generator"—a 10-minute simulation of a messy, real-world day. Gain points for comfort, lose points for wasting electricity or breaking the hardware. **Capacity:** 32 (Strictly limited to 6-8 teams) **Venue Info:** City University of Hong Kong, Kowloon Tong (Exact Location TBC) **Rundown:** 16:00 - 16:10 Opening Remarks, Team Formation & Wi-Fi Setup 16:10 - 16:25 Briefing: Smart Home Architecture & API Setup 16:25 - 17:05 Coding Phase 1 (Levels 1 & 2) 17:05 - 17:50 Coding Phase 2 (Levels 3 & 4) 17:50 - 18:00 The Final Chaos Simulation, Awards 18:00 - Networking outside City University **Audience pre-requisite:** * **Hardware:** **MUST** bring a laptop with Python 3 installed and a code editor (VS Code, PyCharm, etc.). * **Skills:** Recommended having basic to intermediate-level knowledge of Python (handling JSON, using the `requests` library, and writing basic `if/else/while` loops). **How to join?** 1.

Join us as we get together for a Discount Tuesday / Choose Your Movie event to see your choice of two great films! Option 1 is the dark comedy/drama based on a true story TOW! The film stars Rose Byrne as a homeless Seattle woman how battles a towing company. Option 2 is the off-the-rails, over-the-top, action-comedy-horror THEY WILL KILL YOU! The film stars Zazie Beetz as a woman who answers a help wanted ad to be a housekeeper in a mysterious New York City high-rise not knowing its mysterious past! Here are details, trailers and our plan for this event: TOW: This dark comedy/drama is based on a true story and follows a homeless Seattle woman who fights her way out of "tow-company hell" to reclaim the car that had held her life together after receiving a tow bill for $21,634. The film stars Rose Byrne, Ariana DeBose, Demi Lovato, Octavia Spencer, Dominic Sessa, Elsie Fisher and Simon Rex! The film premiered to solid reviews at last year’s Tribeca Film Festival where critics declared, “TOW is a winner!” It’s “a story of perseverance, heart, and real fight, the kind of small human story we see less frequently these days, but need now more than ever.” TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qdkpcsuPAhA THEY WILL KILL YOU: A woman takes a job as a housekeeper in a NYC high-rise, unaware of the building's history of disappearances. She soon realizes the community is shrouded in mystery. The film is directed by Kirill Sokolov and Zadie Beetz, Myha'la, Paterson Joseph, Tom Felton, Heather Graham, and Patricia Arquette. The film is being released immediately following its premiere at this year’s SXSW Festival earlier this month. Early reviews say it’s “an adrenaline rush of action-packed fights, tons of blood and gore and plenty of laugh-out-loud moments” and a movie that’s “unafraid to march to its own campy, violent, and clever little drummer!” TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYqQPiXpi4w PLAN: Not exactly a “Choose Your Movie” event, more like an early show and a late one (or both if you’re feeling sparky)! \* If you’d like to see TOW, please purchase your ticket for the 5:00pm showing and meet in the upstairs lobby between 4:40 and 4:50pm! \* If you plan to see THEY WILL KILL YOU, please purchase your ticket for the 7:45pm showing and meet in the upstairs lobby between 7:25 and 7:35pm! \* Tickets for both films on sale now and advance purchase is advised! Tickets just $5.00 ($6.50 after online fees when purchased via the GFC website). Once you have yours, please list your movie of choice and seat number in the Comments section of this event. \* Also, as a reminder, close, convenient parking available in the nearby garage (Between 9th and 11th, just off High) and just $2 when you have your ticket validated at the theater! Look forward to seeing you there, Dan

**Confidence & Connection: Using Your Authentic Truth to Find Your People** Confidence isn’t just about believing in yourself, it’s about knowing where you belong and who you can grow alongside. In this April Confidence Lab Happy Hour, we’ll explore how living in your authentic truth helps you find your people, build meaningful collaborations, and create spaces where vulnerability is met with respect rather than risk. Together, we’ll reflect on what it looks like to advocate for yourself with clarity and care, and how confidence deepens when it’s rooted in connection rather than comparison. Featured speaker **Lachandra Baker**, founder of **[LBB Edutainment](https://www.lbbedutainment.com/)** and author of *Your Own Biggest Cheerleader*, will share reflections on authenticity, psychological safety, and the power of community over individual achievement. Drawing from personal stories—including the significance of turning 53—Lachandra will invite us into a conversation about showing up fully, being seen, and choosing relationships that support who you truly are. Expect a warm, welcoming atmosphere with space for reflection, shared insight, and intentional connection—plus drinks, light bites, and the kind of conversations that remind you you’re not meant to do this alone. Come as you are. Leave feeling clearer about your voice, your people, and the confidence that grows when both are aligned. **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!
