Hey UXR fam! It’s been a while since we last met, and it’s time to come together again 💜 We’ve had a few more formal events so far… but how about we switch it up? Let’s share a relaxed breakfast, network, and chat all things research. Share what you’re working on, what’s been tricky, what’s exciting, and everything in between. If that sounds like your kind of Saturday morning, come join us ☕️ 🗓 **9th of May (Saturday)** **🕙 10:00 AM** **📍 Harvest & Co - Dubai Garden Centre** Bring yourself and good vibes ✨ P.S. Breakfast is self-funded - order anything from the menu (even if it’s just tea/coffee).

**Some basics to start** Women we are going to introduce this, we may do a women-only version, but generally we are telling women instead of women-only, just do tag a person into the event. We are releasing a simple web version to test this. Can women be early adopters? [https://chat.whatsapp.com/EaFzeakk5qn3RQGIcnTltA?mode=gi_t](https://chat.whatsapp.com/EaFzeakk5qn3RQGIcnTltA?mode=gi_t) **Important** we are seeing early event mostly women are selected, which means you will show up to an event where women are in majority. women set up your profile here, if you want mostly women at the event then just tag other women. [https://eseek.app](https://eseek.app) 📩 Invite System (Tag-A-Person in) Events are shared through a “tag a person” invite system. Only tagged users receive event details. 🎟️ Arrival Check-In On the night of the event, users press a Check-In button when they arrive. Everyone who checks in is added to a live attendee list. 👥 Friend Matching After check-in, each person is automatically assigned 1–3 potential friends from the attendee list. 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Personal Board Posting Users post on their personal board: 👗 What they’re wearing 📍 Where they are sitting/located in the venue 🔍 Find & Connect Assigned matches can view posts to: Identify each other Find each other in real life Form groups naturally ⚖️ Self-Regulated Attendance System No host is required. Access is controlled through tagging and invites. ♀️ Gender Balance Mechanism Women are encouraged to confidently tag other women. This helps increase female participation and maintain a balanced (or women-majority) ratio. 📱 MVP Mobile Test The concept is being built as a simple mobile version for initial testing. 🚫 No-Host Reality Check Free events where a host is expected to show up and spend all their time organizing and managing large groups of idiots is not something we are supporting - if you want free - this is what you get, I suggest you embrace it.

Women going on 1:1 dates, endless swiping, time consuming, expensive, not-safe. Going to a curated singles tag & be tagged events, less restrictive then swiping, but **curation is real!** This is where you view profiles and select people for our next event. [https://eseek.app/singles/](https://eseek.app/singles/) [https://chat.whatsapp.com/EaFzeakk5qn3RQGIcnTltA?mode=gi_t](https://chat.whatsapp.com/EaFzeakk5qn3RQGIcnTltA?mode=gi_t) Singles yacht party [https://eseek.app/yachtparty/](https://eseek.app/yachtparty/) **Follow us at** [https://www.instagram.com/eseek_travel_app/](https://www.instagram.com/eseek_travel_app/) Use Bolt to get to the event, Careem is a major rip off, FYI. Women you are familiar with this concept? Tag & be tagged, to get access to the event. This means no more events full of men, you would never be interested in, we are pushing things in the right direction. Higher gender balanced, more curation of attendees, more women in attendance. Join our experiment, and meet our local host Zeinab who will be there to host. What's the location? Simply tag and be tagged, get a decent profile and bio, and we will see you at our next curated singles event.

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. **SPEAKER BIO** Mosaic Syed is a Senior Data Engineering and Cloud Solutions Architect with over 20 years of experience designing and delivering scalable, secure, and high-performance data solutions across global enterprise environments. https://www.linkedin.com/in/mosaic-basha-syed-92300856 **CALL FOR SPEAKERS** Learn more: [https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/](https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/) **THANK YOU** *VEEAM* for hosting our meetup!

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.
