Toledo Beginner Friendly Home Speed Dating
**💓 Zoom-Hosted Speed Dating for Toledo People Done with Apps**
Each evening, you'll be guided through rapid one-on-one Zoom dates with people from Toledo sorted by age and compatibility, while a live host keeps things smooth throughout.
Right after registering, you submit a short personality questionnaire — the quiz results inform who you meet to match you with Toledo singles who are likely to click with you, meaning your rounds are curated and not random.
Once it is wrapped up, mutual match details are distributed — exclusively for mutual selections — and it is yours to follow up without any rush.
**Find your bracket and register:**
- **Ages 18-32** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=476.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Toledo&groupurlname=collective-of-singles-planning-dinner-parties&ar=18-32&face_v=3.0)

**⚠️ Important:** An rsvp on this page is not a confirmed spot, so use the link for your age bracket above, sign up, and finish the short personality quiz — spots go quickly so register now rather than later, and both steps together are what confirm your place.
---
**Here is how the evening goes**
1. **Lock in your place** – by selecting your age group and following the link, then finish the compatibility quiz, because this step is your confirmation not the RSVP.
2. **Hop on** – via your Zoom registration link at the right time, any device works and no download is required, and the host introduces everyone and gets the rounds started.
3. **Have your dates** – timed one-on-one speed dates with age-matched Toledo locals paired by quiz, as the host handles all transitions so conversations stay natural, since every person you meet was matched to you on purpose.
4. **Review your matches** – after the night mutual match results are sent to both parties, since non-mutual choices are never shared with either party, and you reach out whenever you feel ready.
**Who it is for:**
- Individuals in Toledo finished with profiles that never convert to actual dates and are ready for a genuine first impression.
- Those based in Toledo who are tired of endless scrolling and zero real dates and need a better way to meet people.
- Anyone locally in Toledo moving beyond swiping left and right with no results and are ready for a genuine first impression.
- Daters around Toledo who no longer want app fatigue and empty match queues and are serious about meeting someone.
- People calling Toledo home wanting to escape swiping left and right with no results and are after something more than a swipe can offer.
**Event Info**
- **Format:** Host-managed through Zoom video built around curated one-on-one dates, personality-first and age-grouped at every stage.
- **Where:** From home — on any screen with a camera and mic, Wi-Fi and a front-facing camera covers it completely, and any quiet space with good lighting will do fine.
- **Host:** A welcoming host runs the session from the opening to the final round, so every conversation gets your full attention — there is nothing on your end to organise or manage.
- **Vibe:** Comfortable short conversations with Toledo people who are ready for something real, and the whole thing is better than you would expect.
- **Duration:** Roughly 60 to 75 minutes from host intro to final round, with most rounds feeling short.
⭐ *"Tried it once and booked again — did not feel awkward at all"* – Toledo attendee
💡 **Helpful hint:** prepare one or two opening questions, and the host takes care of everything else from there, and the host handles everything else from that point.

✨ Your next match could be one Zoom call away — grab your spot above and all the logistics are covered this time. See you on the other side. 💎 ✨

Indianapolis Faceless Online Speed Dating Event
**🎊 Zoom Speed Dating for Indianapolis Locals from Home**
In each session, you'll move through private one-on-one video rounds with Indianapolis people in your age bracket who match your profile, with someone hosting live from start to finish.
When booking your spot, you take a quick personality and preferences survey — those results are used to match you with Indianapolis people who are actually compatible, so the format works harder than any dating app.
When it is all over, we send mutual match results — with privacy guaranteed for all non-mutual picks — and everything that follows is on your schedule.
**Age groups — click yours to register:**
- **Ages 18-32** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=476.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Indianapolis&groupurlname=collective-of-singles-planning-dinner-parties&ar=18-32&face_v=3.0)

**⚠️ RSVP is not enough:** Rsvping on meetup does not confirm your spot at the event, so follow the age group link above, register, and complete the personality quiz to lock in your spot — numbers are intentionally limited so register early, and only the combination of both confirms your attendance.
---
**The breakdown**
1. **Register** – through the link corresponding to your age range, then complete the personality assessment, because registration closes once spots fill.
2. **Log on** – by opening the session link at the right time, works on any device without requiring a download, and from there a live host guides everything.
3. **Start the rounds** – brief timed one-on-one chats with Indianapolis singles curated for you by age and personality, as the host signals each transition calmly and clearly, knowing the matching already happened before you got on Zoom.
4. **Discover your matches** – mutual selections are shared privately once the evening wraps, with contact info only shared when both of you said yes, and from there you call every shot.
**Ideal if you are:**
- Someone near Indianapolis who have had enough of apps that waste evenings for no return and are ready for something that feels natural.
- Professionals from the Indianapolis area moving on from dating apps that go nowhere and want actual face-to-face conversation.
- Someone in the Indianapolis area moving beyond apps that waste evenings for no return and are ready for a genuine first impression.
- Members calling Indianapolis home who have given up on profiles instead of real people and are looking for real connection.
- Daters from around Indianapolis moving beyond shallow connections that never lead anywhere and want to talk to real people tonight.
**The Basics**
- **Format:** Real-time via a live video call centred on focused one-on-one video dates, age and personality sorted before the event begins.
- **Where:** Fully remote — on whatever device you prefer, no special equipment — just a device with a camera and internet, and wherever you feel at ease is effectively your venue.
- **Host:** A professional host handles everything so you just show up and enjoy, meaning you never have to think about the format — every transition and every call to move on is handled.
- **Vibe:** Welcoming private Zoom chats with real people from Indianapolis not filtered profiles, and the format itself removes most of the pressure.
- **Duration:** Total time is around 75 minutes or so across all rounds, and you will barely notice the time.
💡 **Tip:** clear your background or find a tidy corner, so the rounds feel natural from the very start, since small prep leads to a noticeably better experience.

✨ One Zoom call, real conversations, real matches — grab your spot above and the evening takes care of itself tonight. Can not wait to see you there. 🕊️ ✨

**💫 Host-Guided Speed Dating for Cincinnati People Short Rounds**
As a participant, you'll rotate through private one-on-one video rounds with Cincinnati singles paired for compatibility by age and quiz, as a skilled host keeps the pace natural.
When booking your spot, there is a short quiz about your personality and preferences — those results are used to pair you with compatible Cincinnati locals, ensuring your matches are intentional and not random.
After the session closes, mutual connections are confirmed and shared — only when the interest is confirmed mutual — and you reach out whenever you are ready.
**Choose your age range below:**

**⚠️ Your seat is not locked yet:** This rsvp does not equal a reserved seat, so register through your age group link above and complete the personality quiz — the cap is reached quickly so register without delay, and without both steps done your spot is not held.
---
**Details**
- **Format:** Fully hosted through Zoom video structured around guided private rounds, sorted to your age group and personality profile in advance.
- **Where:** At-home — on any laptop tablet or phone, nothing is needed beyond a device and a stable connection, and any quiet space where you can focus for 90 minutes works.
- **Host:** A capable host handles round management so conversations feel natural, giving the whole session a relaxed and easy feel — every transition and every call to move on is handled.
- **Vibe:** Social face-to-face sessions with genuine Cincinnati singles, and you will find it hard to believe this replaced a swipe.
- **Duration:** Runs for roughly ninety minutes or so from opening to close, though it can vary slightly by event.
**Perfect for:**
- Those living in Cincinnati wanting to escape app fatigue and empty match queues and want to talk to real people tonight.
- Returners locally in Cincinnati done with app fatigue and empty match queues and want to try something that actually works.
- First-timers throughout Cincinnati ready to move past matches that ghost after two messages and want to talk to real people tonight.
- Anyone at all throughout Cincinnati bored of swiping left and right with no results and are serious about meeting someone.
**Step by step**
1. **Start here** – through your age range link above, then answer the personality questions, as both steps are required and neither can be skipped.
2. **Log on** – using the video link shared before the session, no Zoom account is needed — just click the link, and everything from that point is handled by the host.
3. **Go through the rounds** – live one-on-one video rounds with Cincinnati people sorted by age and quiz results, while a host ensures every round feels natural, since personality and age shaped every pairing in advance.
4. **Discover your matches** – once the event closes we share mutual match results, since no information is ever shared without mutual agreement from both sides, and you connect whenever you would like to with no pressure.
⭐ *"Honestly surprised — worth every minute of the 90 it took"* – Cincinnati local who came sceptical
💡 **Before you join:** grab a glass of water before you start, which means you can focus entirely on the conversation, and the host handles everything else from that point.

CBusData - Practical AI for Power BI Developers
Practical AI for Power BI Developers
A year ago, “agentic AI” was mostly hype for Power BI teams. Today, it deserves your undivided attention. For Power BI pros, there is now a real opportunity to reduce repetitive development work, accelerate delivery, and help developers do more, but only when strong DataOps practices are in place to make AI workflows effective.
This session is a no-nonsense introduction to effective AI patterns for Power BI and Fabric development. Along the way, we will make sense of the growing pile of terminology, including skills, plugins, hooks, and MCP. You will see examples of how modern AI tooling can help with development tasks across Power BI and Fabric, along with the prerequisites, guardrails, and DataOps principles needed to use it responsibly.
Whether you're burned out on AI hype or already using Copilot CLI daily, this session will show you the foundations that are finally making AI-assisted development genuinely useful.
Building Scalable Customer Identity Resolution Pipelines on AWS Using AI
Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs.
This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context.
We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing.

Data & Analytics Wednesday - Mapping and Dashboards
**Total Eclipse of the Chart: School Redistricting Dashboards**
In this presentation, we will explore the utilization of maps, sets, and SQL within a Tableau dashboard to help provide “what-if” analyses generated through the use of a mapped dashboard, providing different scenarios and the potential implications of these.
While in this use case we are focused on a large school district, the concepts of utilizing existing data to explore the future impacts of modifying different geographic boundaries can be useful to many industries, balancing the mix of maps with visual analytics.
