**This is a paid event.** Early-bird tickets for **$149** are available until 7th August. Tickets will be **$249** thereafter. Get your tickets on Eventbrite: https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/1993880315698?aff=oddtdtcreator **Overview** Ready to automate โ€” on your own terms? A full-day, hands-on build at WSTI, where you'll set up a Business AI OS on **Hermes** โ€” the open-source AI agent you run yourself. Lunch + optional consultation included. \> ***"I want AI actually running my business โ€” but on my terms: my data, my computer, my costs."*** Sound familiar? You're ready for the next step. You'll build a Business AI OS โ€” the foundation that holds your business's context, memory and tool connections and powers every Agent that runs on it. By day's end you'll have assembled a Chief-of-Staff agent that triages a whole inbox into one dashboard, plus a content agent for social โ€” on a real business scenario, on software that's yours to take home. **Why Hermes โ€” what a rented AI tool can't give you** \- ๐Ÿ”“ **Hermes Agent.** Free & open-source. Take Hermes home and set up the same thing for your own business, on your own computer. \- ๐Ÿ”’ **Your data stays with you.** Hermes runs on your own machine and connects to your own accounts โ€” your emails never sit on someone else's cloud. \- ๐Ÿ’ธ **Your model, your cost โ€” your choice.** You're not locked to one paid provider: plug in a low-cost model, or an all-in subscription if you prefer. You control the bill. \- ๐Ÿ“ฑ **It lives where you do.** Connect Hermes to WhatsApp and run your business from your phone โ€” get the morning's inbox triage sent straight to you. **What You'll Walk Out With** * **A Business AI OS that knows your business** โ€” its context, voice, prices and tools โ€” running on Hermes, on a real scenario (the foundation everything else builds on) * **A Chief of Staff that runs your inbox for you** โ€” a team of specialist agents that sort, draft and prioritise every email into one dashboard, and run themselves every morning on a schedule (drafts only โ€” never sends without you) * **A content agent for the other direction** โ€” it spots a happy-customer email and writes ready-to-post Instagram/Facebook content (inbound **and** outbound, one system) * **An optional free 30-minute AI consultation** to map your next step **Who This Is For** \- SME owners and founders who want automation without giving up cost control or data privacy \- Working professionals who want a self\-hosted\, no\-lock\-in setup they fully own \- Anyone curious how Western Sydney businesses are running on AI Agents **What to Expect** * **Background** โ€” what a Business AI OS is, and why open-source + self-hosted matters for cost and privacy * **Demo** โ€” a live Chief of Staff triaging a full inbox * **Hands-on all day** โ€” install Hermes โ†’ give it your business memory โ†’ build an Operations Agent โ†’ save it as a skill + schedule it โ†’ build specialist sub-agents โ†’ assemble a Chief of Staff โ†’ extend it with content/social * **Lunch + networking** with other Western Sydney business owners, founders and builders * **Next steps** + your optional free consultation **FAQ** **What is a Business AI OS?** A personal AI operating system for your business โ€” the layer that knows the business (context, memory) and connects to your own tools, so it can spawn the right Agent for any task. **What platform do you use?** Hermes โ€” an open-source AI agent framework (by Nous Research) that runs on your own computer and works with any AI model. It's free, so you can take the exact setup home. **Where does my data go?** Hermes runs on the computer in front of you and connects to your own accounts โ€” your data stays with you, not on someone else's cloud. **Can you set it up and run it for me?** Yes. If you'd rather not run it yourself, our 1-on-1 AI OS Build Support can set it up and maintain it on **your own private server** โ€” a dedicated setup that stays yours, never a shared cloud. Ask at your free consultation. **Do I need to know AI or coding?** No coding โ€” Hermes has a friendly desktop app. New to AI? An intro taster experience helps but isn't required. **Do I need a laptop?** No โ€” WSTI provides one to make learning as smooth as possible. We prepare tools, licences, configurations, learning projects and materials beforehand for you. Bring your own if you'd like to take notes. **Is lunch included?** Yes. **Notice of Photography and Filming** By entering this event, you acknowledge that photography, audio, and video recording may occur. Your attendance constitutes your consent to be photographed, filmed, and/or recorded and to the release, publication, exhibition, or reproduction of such media for promotional purposes by Western Sydney Tech Innovators (WSTI).

AI Project Hub

AI Project Hub

Thu, Aug 6, 8:00 AM
From Western Sydney Tech Innovators
4.8

Welcome to **WSTI's AI Project Hub**โ€”the hands-on heart of the WSTI community's AI Shed model. This isn't a traditional class or a lecture. Itโ€™s a weekly, drop-in "Shed" designed for collaborative, project-based learning, where we support each other turning ideas (beginner or ambitious) into real, working prototypes and projects. Whether you're a founder with a specific problem, a developer testing a new tool, or a complete beginner curious about what you can make, this is your space to build, learn, and collaborate. **What to expect:** * **Quick Pitch:** To spark some inspiration, weโ€™ll have a few informal, low-pressure "progress check-ins" where attendees can briefly share what theyโ€™re working on. * **Space to Build:** No formal lectures here. Just a supportive environment to polish your prototype, refine your code, or finalise your pitch. * **Guides on the Side:** Our technical mentors will be mingling in the room. Theyโ€™re ready to offer a helpful nudge, architectural advice, or a tool recommendation if you hit a roadblock. * **Community Wisdom:** If our mentors donโ€™t have the answer, theyโ€™ll connect you with someone else in the room who does. Weโ€™re all about sharing what we learn. * **Curiosity is Welcome:** You donโ€™t need a hackathon project to pull up a chair. If youโ€™re a regular from our Project Hub looking to share your knowledge, or just a curious neighbour. We have community laptops with access to some AI tools if you aren't able to bring your own. **Tools/Topics discussed may include:** * ChatGPT, Claude, Google Gemini, Opensource AI Models. * Platforms like n8n and other automation tools. * Coding vibe coding like Lovable, Replit, Antigravity and Cursor. * Frameworks such as BMAD. * Image and video generators like Midjourney, Nanobanana and Video models such as Kling, Veo & Seedance. *By attending this event, you consent that you may be photographed and recorded on video. These photos and videos may be used for marketing and promotional purposes in the future. If you have any concerns please let the team know upon arrival.*
