One of the most common questions we get at HK Sacred Spaces is, "How do you find so many places to visit?" There are many different answers to that question, but certainly one of them is found in my well-worn copy of the locally printed book "Market Towns of the New Territories" by Patrick HASE. This book is published in both English and Chinese and is a treasure trove of information about how the New Territories developed and how that impacts every other part of Hong Kong life. From village towns, local temples, and ancient trails, this book has it all. It's rare to have a chance to hear the author talk about his work, so I encourage all of you to come along and listen to the talk and ask questions. Our friends host this event at the Hong Kong Anthropology Society. It is free of charge.

*An intimate evening for deep rest, reflection, and renewal.* ​**Resonance and Ritual: Sound Journey & Tea Ceremony** ​Step out of the Hong Kong work rhythm and into an evening of nervous system restoration, deep presence, and gentle connection. **Resonance and Ritual** is a small-group sound journey and tea ceremony created especially for busy professionals who want to slow down without “checking out” of their lives. ​We’ll begin with a candle lighting intention ritual. Then we'll gently settle into a guided sound journey using sound bowls, chimes, and other soothing instruments to help your body release tension and your mind soften out of work mode. From there, we transition into a mindful tea ceremony, inviting you to experience tea as a grounding ritual — one sip, one breath, one shared moment at a time. ​This experience is ideal if you: * ​Feel mentally and emotionally drained from long workdays * ​Find it hard to switch off, even when you’re home * ​Miss feeling present, connected, and at ease in your own body ​**What’s included** * ​Guided sound journey (approx. 40 minutes) * ​Mindful tea ceremony with high-quality loose-leaf tea * ​Mats/props provided (you may bring your own if you prefer) * ​A calm, supportive space to integrate and reflect ​**Event details** * ​Date: Friday, 1st May * ​Time: 7:00 - 8:30 PM * ​Venue: Sacred Space Therapy and Wellness Studio, Cheung Sha Wan * ​Capacity: Limited to 7 participants for depth and comfort * ​Exchange: * ​Early Bird - 375 HKD (First 3) * ​Standard - 420 HKD * ​Group (2+) - 390 HKD ​**What to bring** * ​Comfortable clothing suitable for lying down * ​A light sweater or shawl * ​Optional: journal and pen

**Most people learn *about* AI. We learn by building *with* it.** ​There are a thousand newsletters, courses, and YouTube videos explaining what AI is. This bootcamp is not that. This is 2 days of hands-on building — real tools, real APIs, real apps — guided by someone who has done it across consumer and enterprise products. ​By Day 2, you'll have shipped working AI products. Not demos. Not slides. **Things that work.** [Get tickets at eventbrite:](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/build-with-ai-hong-kong-tickets-1986302774067?utm-campaign=social&utm-content=landingpage&utm-medium=schoolofappliedai&utm-term=listing&utm-source=schoolofappliedai&keep_tld=true&utm_source=luma) *** ## ​🎯 Who Should Attend ​You're a great fit if… ​You want to build, not just learn. ​You're a founder, executive, or self-starter. ​You want practical skills, not theory ​You're serious about staying ahead in AI You might not be ready if… You're looking for a passive lecture experience. ​You think watching is the same as doing You're not willing to experiment and fail fast You need heavy technical hand-holding [Get tickets at eventbrite:](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/build-with-ai-hong-kong-tickets-1986302774067?utm-campaign=social&utm-content=landingpage&utm-medium=schoolofappliedai&utm-term=listing&utm-source=schoolofappliedai&keep_tld=true&utm_source=luma) *** ## ​🔨 What You'll Build ​Over 2 days, you'll build and ship: ​**→ A personal brand , a service webapp which accepts payments, a customer feedback system and a custom web app which solves your own problem.** ​Every project is yours to keep and launch. *** ## ​📅 Agenda Overview ​**Day 1 — Saturday, May 2** You hit the ground running. After a quick orientation on the AI landscape and how web apps actually work, you build three real products before the day ends: your personal brand website (live on a custom domain by lunch), a client-facing services page that takes real Stripe payments, and a lead magnet page with an AI-powered CRM that auto-scores leads and writes follow-up emails for you. The day closes with an AI Trend Spotlight and open build time to keep experimenting. ​**Day 2 — Sunday, May 3** You go deeper and finish strong. The morning is spent building a login-protected customer portal where clients can access resources and submit support tickets — no developer needed. After lunch and a second AI Trend Spotlight, you spend the afternoon on your capstone: building the app your own business has actually been waiting for, with dedicated 1-on-1 facilitator support the whole way through. You then build your pitch deck live using Lovable, present your app at the final showcase, and leave with a certificate and five deployed products that are yours to keep. *** ## ​💡 The Philosophy > ​*You cannot think your way into understanding AI. You build your way in.* ​Every breakthrough in your understanding will come from something not working — and then figuring out why. That's the method. That's why 2 days of building teaches more than 3 months of reading. *** ## ​📍 Event Details ​🗓 **Date:** 2nd and 3rd May · Hong Kong 📍 **Venue:** Chinachem plaza, 178-186 Johnston Road, 4/F Chinachem plaza , Wan chai, Hong kong 👥 **Cohort:** Max 20 participants (intentionally small) 💰 **Investment:** HK$2\,500 \- HK $4000 \| Early\-bird pricing available [Get tickets at eventbrite:](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/build-with-ai-hong-kong-tickets-1986302774067?utm-campaign=social&utm-content=landingpage&utm-medium=schoolofappliedai&utm-term=listing&utm-source=schoolofappliedai&keep_tld=true&utm_source=luma) *** ## ​✅ What to Bring * ​Your laptop (Mac or Windows, both fine) * ​A project idea you want to build (optional but encouraged) * ​Openness to experimenting, breaking things, and shipping fast *** ## ​👋 Your Host ​**Altaf** — founder, builder, and educator at the School of Applied AI.

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.
