Build Your Personal AI Assistant with OpenClaw
Hi everyone,
Ever wished you had a personal AI assistant that knows you, remembers your preferences, and works 24/7 across your favourite messaging apps?
In this hands-on beginner workshop, Ray Han — who runs multiple AI assistants for his own businesses — will walk you through building your own personal AI assistant using OpenClaw, the open-source AI agent platform.
**What you'll learn:**
· What OpenClaw is and why it's different from ChatGPT
· Set up your own AI assistant (two methods — 1-click cloud and full local install)
· Connect it to Telegram or WhatsApp
· Give it memory, personality, and your own instructions
· Real demos of what a configured assistant can actually do
**What to bring:** Laptop (not tablet) with Chrome browser. No coding experience needed. Wi-Fi provided.
**Who is this for:** AI-curious professionals, founders, and anyone who wants a personal AI that works for them — not just a chatbot.
Speaker's profile:
Ray works in a MNC, where he leads enterprise AI strategy. Outside work, he runs multiple businesses — including a TCM clinic and professional training consultancy — each with its own AI assistant built on OpenClaw.
Ray is an AI practitioner, not a theorist. His AI assistants manage his content library, monitor markets, coach his fitness, and handle daily operations across his ventures, also helping to shape this event. He's currently writing a book on building personal AI assistants.

Prostate Cancer Health Talk with Dr. Peter Lim | Free Event for Men 40+
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among men in Singapore. Most men have no symptoms in the early stages — and by the time they do, it may already be advanced. **Early detection saves lives. And it starts with knowing your risk.**
This April, take the most important step for your health and join us for a free, expert-led talk by **Dr. Lim Huat Chye Peter** — one of Singapore's most respected urologists and founder of the Society for Men's Health (Singapore).
**📅 Date:** Saturday, 11 April 2026
**🕑 Time:** 1:30 PM – 4:00 PM
**📍 Venue:** Farrer Park Hospital, Connexion, #16-06 (Viv Hall)
**💰 Admission:** FREE
**If you're a man over 40, this talk is for you.**
Most men avoid talking about their health — until it's too late. Don't wait for symptoms. Prostate cancer is highly treatable when caught early, but the window matters. This is your chance to get straight-talking, expert guidance in a relaxed, open setting where all questions are welcome.
**What you'll learn:**
* What prostate cancer is and how it develops silently
* Who is at risk — and why men over 40 need to act now
* When and how to get screened, and what tests to expect
* Treatment options and the latest advances in urological care
* How to have the conversation with your doctor — and what questions to ask
Come alone, or bring a father, brother, husband, or friend. The men in your life need to hear this.
**Seats are limited. This event is free — but your health is priceless. Register now before it's too late.**

Speak Easy (Storytelling)
The topic for April is "Water"
Speak Easy: true stories, told live.
The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast.
Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect.
The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!
