Product Unleashed London: Closing language gaps + Product Process in the AI age
**——————————**
**Event Description:**
**——————————**
Welcome product enthusiasts!
We're a meet-up group that hosts regular speaking events for those interested in the world of **digital products** and **doing things differently!**
Each meet-up features new guests from some of the most influential product companies around the world, providing unique insights, tangible ideas, and new techniques to help drive change from the inside out.
**————————**
**Event Format:**
**————————**
🚨 **This is an in-person event only.** 🚨
**————**
**Venue:**
**————**
**Our Product Unleashed London Event:** We are hosted in the beautiful event space @ **[Youlend](https://youlend.com/).**
🚨 **Note:** Youlend Entrance opposite the Rosewood hotel 🚨
We're looking forward to seeing you there!
**———————**
**What to expect:**
⚡ This event will be made up of 2 speakers dropping knowledge bombs in the form of 20 minute talks straight into your minds 🤯
**———————**
**SPEAKER 1**
**———————**
**Alison Howard**
Alison Howard is a Principal Product Design Consultant with 14 years of experience working across some of the UK's most complex and fast-moving products. As an independent consultant, she has partnered with organisations including Trainline, Expedia, BP, HSBC and Emirates to untangle messy problems, align teams and deliver design that actually gets built.
Outside her consultancy work, Alison manages PD Ladies, a community of 800+ women in Product Design.
**————————**
**About the Talk:**
**————————**
**Learn the Language, Win the Room**
If you've ever left a meeting feeling like no one understood what you were saying, this talk is for you. Alison explores the gap between how designers communicate and how everyone else does, and what happens when you close it.
***Expect practical tools and honest reflections on learning to speak the language of product, commercial and engineering teams, so your work gets the traction it deserves.***
**———————**
**SPEAKER 2**
**———————**
**Anna Popova**
Anna Popova is Head of Product at [Judge.me](https://judge.me/), one of Shopify’s most installed apps, helping over 600,000 e-commerce brands build trust through customer reviews.
With more than a decade of experience across product management, data science, and delivery, Anna focuses on how product teams can increase leverage and build better systems for decision-making and execution. Recently, her work has centred on exploring how AI can reshape the product development process — from discovery and research to prototyping, UX design, and creating high-quality requirements for engineering.
She is particularly interested in how small product teams can use AI to dramatically increase output while preserving strong product thinking, judgement, and product craftsmanship.
**————————**
**About the Talk:**
**————————**
**When Building Becomes Cheap: Rethinking Product Process in the Age of AI)**
**Software is becoming dramatically cheaper to build. AI tools are rapidly reducing the cost of prototyping, coding, and experimentation — faster than many product teams realise.**
But while the cost of building is collapsing, the cost of process remains high. Many teams still rely on workflows designed for a world where engineering time was scarce: heavy discovery phases, long specification cycles, and complex coordination structures. In the AI era, these processes risk becoming the real bottleneck.
In this talk, Anna explores how product teams may need to rethink how they operate when building becomes cheap. At [Judge.me](https://judge.me/), they've started asking a provocative question: what if a product team should never grow beyond 10 people — even when serving millions of users?
Drawing from experiments with AI-assisted workflows, Anna will share how AI can augment product work — from rapid prototyping and spec generation to creating a “digital twin” of a product manager.
***Get ready to explore which parts of the product process should be automated, which should remain human, and how product leaders can adapt.***

Product is... creating a trust gap - BUY TICKETS ON LUMA
**⚠️⚠️ TICKETED EVENT - BUY TICKETS ON [LUMA EVENT PAGE](https://luma.com/icr5pkqs) ⚠️⚠️**
Product Is… is tackling something that keeps a lot of product teams up at night.
AI products are shipping faster than users are learning to trust them. In some industries, that gap is getting dangerous.
Tom Blower, Chief Product and R&D Officer at Agreena, has spent his career building AI products in sectors where the stakes are real - healthcare, agriculture, climate tech. He knows what it looks like when a product gives the right answer and the user still doesn't act on it.
This event will be on the seventh floor at Synechron's office, 35 Gresham Street, London, EC2V 7QB. A massive thank you to Synechron for providing the venue.
Doors open at 6:30 PM, we kick off at 7:00 PM, and wrap up by 8:30 PM. Drinks and snacks will be provided. Come ready for proper discussion, new connections, and ideas worth thinking about.
--- THE THEME - PRODUCT IS... CREATING A TRUST GAP ---
AI products are getting better at a rate that is genuinely hard to keep up with. But capability and trust are not the same thing.
Think about a farmer. They have decades of lived experience in their soil, their land, their seasons. An AI tool tells them to do something different. What happens? Often, nothing. Not because the AI is wrong, but because trust has not been earned.
This is not a niche problem. It shows up in healthcare, in finance, in anywhere that human expertise has been built over time. Product teams are shipping features that users are quietly ignoring. The question is why, and what to do about it.
We will be exploring how product teams build trust in AI when the people using it have good reason to be sceptical. How do you design for adoption when lived experience is the competition? And when speed of development is part of the problem, how do you slow down in the right places?
The central question for the evening: can AI earn trust in industries built on lived experience?
Come ready to pick a side.
--- THE SPEAKER - TOM BLOWER ---
Tom is Chief Product and R&D Officer at Agreena, a FinTech, AgTech and ClimateTech platform that helps farmers and corporations unlock the value of nature. At Agreena, Tom has led the development of Agatha, an AI advisory tool that gives farmers data-driven guidance tailored to their land - built on satellite data, remote sensing, and a deep respect for what farmers already know.
Before Agreena, Tom was VP of Product at Kry and Livi, where he built digital and physical healthcare products used by millions of patients across Europe. Before that, he led product at Ada Health, the AI-powered symptom assessment app with over 10 million downloads and the number one healthcare app in 120 countries.
Tom started his career at Dyson, where he spent nearly a decade in R&D and product design, winning a Red Dot Award along the way.
He has shipped AI products to some of the most trust-resistant user groups on the planet. He has a lot to say about it.
-------- ABOUT 'PRODUCT IS...' --------
PMs, UX & UI designers, user researchers, developers - you like to dream big when it comes to digital products… Now it's time share your perspective!
'Product is…' grounds itself in informed, knowledgeable context and healthy conversation - vital ingredients to tech success. One keynote speaker sets the tone on a theme of less travelled subject matter before all attendees add their perspective during the second half of round table-style discussion.
Don't expect standard tech meetup fare like "How to improve your CV/Portfolio for that dream job at Facebook" or "How this new framework/approach will improve your workflow" - this meetup is food for the mind, but also a place to meet like-minded big-thinkers! We welcome everyone who works in tech - EVERYONE has a valuable perspective that we learn from.
-------- WHY WE CHARGE FOR TICKETS --------
We do not aim to make a profit from this meetup, our goal is to create healthy and interesting conversations, meet new people and make new connections. Speakers and the organising team give up their time free of charge to ensure the events are enjoyable for all. A charge is required for attendance - this allows the organisation team to cover overheads, plus food and drink for the evening. To be clear, we're working towards lowering our costs as much as possible to keep ticket prices as low as possible.
AI Meetup #1 - Builders Foundry London
For people who build software. **We focus on AI, design, engineering, cloud, and startups without the hype.**
No vendor pitches or buzzwords. Just real architectures, production lessons, and honest trade-offs. For engineers, architects, platform teams, and technical founders.
Join us for two practical talks and a roundtable & pizza.🍕
**🤖 1. Using GenAI to Re-Imagine City Development**
[Damian Bemben](https://www.linkedin.com/in/bemben/) \- Senior Software Engineer @ AdaMode
"Urban redevelopment is constrained by cost and slow iteration. This session explores using GenAI and image-to-3D to generate and test concepts in seconds, giving more people a voice in planning. Covers practical model integration and where these tools actually deliver value beyond “AI slop"
**🤖 2. Deploying Deep Learning in Real Healthcare Constraints**
[David Agbolade](https://www.linkedin.com/in/dagbolade/) \- Senior Data Scientist\, \| AI Researcher \| SheerFit Founder
"A system for automated radiology reports, built for environments with 1 radiologist per 1 million people. The model worked in the lab. Deployment exposed the real problems: data scarcity, bias, low budgets, and lack of trust.
Real trade-offs: shipping a prototype over a “proper” app, choosing speed over marginal accuracy, and training on imperfect data because perfect data never arrives.
**🤖 3. Round table**
[Tom Winstanley](https://www.linkedin.com/in/tomwinstanley/) \- CTO and Head of New Ventures in UK&I
Open discussion on shipping AI systems under real world constraints.
Questions. Trade offs. What we would do differently.

Systemic & Family Constellations IN-PERSON Full-Day Workshop with Illi Adato
**You are invited to join a deep healing group process that extends beyond us as individuals into the wider 'field' of historical/ancestral influences, where our family's past traumas are seen, acknowledged, and attended to, so that they do not limit our well-being today.**
In these **short videos, our facilitator Illi Adato** explains the key aspects of the Systemic and Family Constellation approach to therapy and healing:
[https://www.facebook.com/LondonFamilyConstellations/videos](https://www.facebook.com/LondonFamilyConstellations/videos)
We shall meet at The Kailash Centre in St. Johns Wood, London NW8 for this month's group session, **open to all**.
Issue Holder and Representative spaces are available:
**For Representative (Participant) Booking £45:**
**[https://calendly.com/illiadato/in-person-constellations-representative](https://calendly.com/illiadato/in-person-constellations-representative)**[ ](https://calendly.com/illiadato/in-person-constellations-representative)
**For Issue Holder (Client) Booking £175:**
If you wish to attend as an Issue Holder at this workshop and have your own Constellation done please email your request to: [ih@londonconstellations.uk](ih@londonconstellations.uk)
**Please Note:** There are limited issue holder spaces available, please book early to avoid disappointment and wait for a confirmation email of your booking.
This workshop provides a perfect opportunity to experience the deep and insightful Systemic Constellations process. A unique and powerful therapeutic method for self-exploration, understanding core behaviors, removing blocks, and reintroducing movement and growth. It is used as a major resource in working through trauma and it can assist in depression treatment.
To read comments from participants in previous workshops click this link [https://bit.ly/33Asprs](https://bit.ly/33Asprs)
**WHAT ARE SYSTEMIC CONSTELLATIONS?**
The Systemic Constellations method is a unique therapeutic process of exploration of the forces that move us in life. Such forces often appear as difficulties or a sense of being 'stuck' in life, affecting our behavior, relationships, career, health/wellbeing, or even financial circumstances. This method provides a three-dimensional ‘map’ of one’s life as it is at present. It is a simple yet powerful way to explore entanglements and blockages in our personal life and in our family history. The method brings awareness and clarity into personal challenges by focusing the client on the root cause of such difficulties. Constellations provide an opening for a positive life shift and present ways for deep healing processes to occur.
**WHAT HAPPENS IN A CONSTELLATION SESSION?**
In Constellations work the ‘client’ is referred to as the ‘Issue Holder’.
The method uses workshop participants as ‘Representatives’ to stand in for key people in the client’s life such as family members, colleagues, partners, ex-partners etc., sometimes ‘abstract’ concepts such as an emotion, country of origin, religion, or destiny are also represented. All participants are invited to take part as Representatives. Workshop participants often report (see reviews: [https://bit.ly/33Asprs](https://bit.ly/33Asprs)) experiencing profound insights into their own lives by simply witnessing the process, regardless of how they choose to take part.
**WHY DOES THIS WORK?**
Scientific research shows that the experiences of your ancestors can determine your behavior today and affect future generations.\*\* Recent scientific research into DNA reveals that a component named epigenetics is embedding the effect of a traumatic experience by altering the genetic structure. It means that some of our behavior patterns can be attributed to traumatic events in your family history. This notion has always been one of the guiding principles of Systemic / Constellations Therapy, a form of work that is dedicated to exposing and dealing with issues emerging from our family system.
Our group provides a **safe space** where deep personal work is done and where maintaining confidentiality and respect for each other's privacy is paramount.

5 Elements Constellation Workshop
**Giving the Here-and-Now a Chance Constellation Workshop**
Saturday 18 April 2026 10 to 530pm
£120
We will work with small, experiential constellation exercises designed to deepen awareness of the personal and ancestral influences shaping our thoughts, actions, and reactions—often colouring our present-moment experience. This process supports disentangling from what does not belong to us, allowing our healthy adult self to take the lead in how we respond and act.
The focus is on identifying and releasing patterns that originate in our family system or adaptations formed in early life that continue to influence us today. By doing so, we create space to be more present, available, and grounded in our here-and-now experience.
All relevant information will be shared at the beginning of each day.

Join us for this in person confidential and supportive constellation group experience. Constellation work allows us to work with the resonance field revealing hidden dynamics, entanglements and burdens that we unconsciously got involved in and make our journey forward in life less than it could be. The focus of the work is “Health” in the broadest sense of the word. I define this as a movement towards the true authentic self in a clear and objective way.

ONLINE session/NOVA Sapiens™ nervous system RESET
**NOVA Sapiens™**
Struggling with constant anxiety, stress, fear, or panic attacks? This is for you:
**One session. A different level of you.**
**When your system feels like it’s “going too fast”**
Anxiety is not a thinking problem. Panic is not a personality problem. Fear spirals are not irrational behavior. They are **nervous system activation patterns that have become self-reinforcing.**
When this happens, the system can feel like: racing thoughts you cannot slow down sudden waves of fear or dread physical anxiety with no clear reason, looping “what if” scenarios, emotional overwhelm that feels uncontrollable, difficulty making even simple decisions. You are not broken. Your system is **stuck in threat activation mode.**
**A neuroscience-led** **clarity & nervous system reset session.**
A deeply restorative, neuroscience-informed experience designed for everyone seeking to reset the nervous system, restore mental clarity, and rebuild emotional balance in a supported environment.
Set in the natural calm, this session blends modern brain science with structured recovery practices to support sustainable inner change, resilience,
and self-regulation.
## **NOVA Sapiens™ 19th April**
A psychotherapeutic session based on neuroscience
**WHO THIS IS FOR**
**WHEN YOUR BODY IS IN ALERT MODE… YOUR MIND CAN’T THINK CLEARLY**
This session is for you if you are experiencing:
⚡racing thoughts you cannot slow down
⚡sudden waves of anxiety or fear
⚡looping “what if” scenarios
⚡emotional overwhelm for no clear reason
⚡difficulty calming your system once it activates
⚡ you experience physical tension, restlessness, panic-like
internal states (mild to moderate)
Then you already know: **this is not a thinking problem.**
**It is a nervous system activation pattern.**
**YOU ARE NOT BROKEN**
Your system is not malfunctioning.
It is:
⚡ over-activated
⚡ pattern-looped
⚡ responding as if something is “not safe”
⚡ stuck in a predictive fear cycle
This is learnable, visible, and interruptible.
**HOW THIS IS DIFFERENT**
This is not:
⚡talk therapy
⚡emotional processing session
⚡long-term treatment
⚡spiritual calming work
This is:
**applied nervous system work for real-time stabilization**
****
**What this session is**
This is a **live, structured nervous system regulation session** designed to help
⚡reduce internal threat activation patterns and restore baseline stability
⚡understand your anxiety pattern structure
⚡reduce internal threat activation in real time
⚡interrupt looping fear cycles
⚡restore cognitive and emotional clarity
⚡build a simple regulation framework you can use again
This is not therapy. This is not coaching.
This is **applied nervous system work in real time.** This is not a conversation,
This is a **structured psychological intervention for clarity.**
**What happens in this hour.**
****Working directly with your current activation patterns.
**1\. MAP YOUR ACTIVATION SYSTEM**
We identify:
👉what triggers your nervous system escalation
👉how the fear loop begins and repeats
👉where cognitive amplification starts
👉 what your personal anxiety pattern structure is
You stop seeing “random anxiety”
and start seeing **a predictable system.**
**2\. INTERRUPT THE LOOP**
Guiding your system toward:
👉reduced physiological arousal and emotional escalation patterns
👉stabilization of attention and perception
👉interruption of catastrophic prediction cycles
👉work withfear amplification cycles and overthinking spirals
The goal is not to “remove anxiety” bu**t to reduce intensity and restore internal control.**
**3\. REBUILD RESPONSE STRUCTURE**
****
****You leave with:
👉your personal “when this happens → do this”map
👉 early warning signal awareness-recognition of early activation signals
👉tools to stop escalation before it peaks:grounding + regulation steps
👉clarity on how your system responds under stress,clarity on how to interrupt future spirals
You leave with **a practical regulation guidance**
**THIS IS NOT FOR YOU IF…**
**you are in acute crisis or need medical/psychiatric care**
**you prefer unstructured emotional conversation**
**you are looking for long-term psychotherapy**
**you want passive relaxation or wellness experiences**
****
**THIS IS FOR YOU IF…**
**your nervous system feels overstimulated or reactive**
**you want practical tools to reduce spiraling**
**you want to understand your anxiety pattern clearly**
**you want immediate structure and stabilization**
Led by Ayna Utegalieva- **Psychologist \| Author\|Founder of NOVA Sapiens™**
Ayna Utegalieva is a psychologist working at the intersection of **anxiety, nervous system regulation, and identity transition**.Her work is based on a simple observation: many people are not lacking insight — they are overwhelmed by internal patterns they don’t fully understand.
Through her framework, **NOVA Sapiens™**, she helps individuals make sense of anxiety loops, emotional overload, and recurring behavioral patterns, and begin to restructure how they respond to them.Ayna’s sessions are designed for those navigating **uncertainty, pressure, or transition**, offering a structured process that brings clarity, reduces internal noise, and restores a sense of direction and self-trust.Her approach combines psychological depth with practical structure — creating space not just for understanding, but for **real internal change**.
At the core of this work is the concept of **NOVA Sapiens™** — a perspective that explores how human internal experience is evolving in today's world under conditions of **constant change, uncertainty, and information overload. More here http://www.worldwomen.co.uk/bali-for-transformation.html**
**WHY INVEST/WHY THIS WORKS**
Most anxiety approaches fail because they:
⚡they don’t apply neuroscience
⚡focus on thoughts instead of a systematised approach
⚡give generic tools not personalized patterns
⚡don’t work in real-time activation states
This session is different because it:
**works with your nervous system as it is — not as it “should be”**
**FINAL WORD**
**You do not need more information.**
You need **a structured way to understand and regulate what is already happening inside you.**
This session is designed to give you that — in real time.
I keep these sessions intentionally small to create a more personal, tailored experience for everyone involved. Because of that, there are only a limited number of spaces available, and once they’re filled, I won’t be adding more. If you’re feeling called to join, I’d recommend securing your spot soon.

**Abstract**
GitHub Copilot is powerful, but what if you could scale from a solo AI assistant to an entire team of specialized agents working in parallel? This session introduces Squad: an open-source framework for multi-agent orchestration that lets you define teams of AI agents with specific roles, responsibilities, and expertise.
We'll progress from Copilot basics to the Copilot CLI, explore how Agents add autonomy, and see how Instructions and Skills let you customize agent behavior. Then, the climax: a live demo where a Squad team of 3 agents (Lead, Developer, Tester) stands up and builds a working application in real-time, showcasing true multi-agent collaboration.
Whether you're new to AI or exploring how to scale your use of Copilot, this session will show you what's possible when agents work as a team.

Prompt vs. Paintbrush
AI is changing how art is made. But when does it stop being your work and start being the machine’s?
This month we're going to be doing a panel with with digital image, music, and written word artists, talking about at what point, while using AI in the creation process, does the work become not the artist creation?
We encourage audience participation during this event that will be moderated by Chris Slee.
Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.
