From ProductTank Melbourne

Join us for another exciting **in-person** Product Tank event! The event is free, but seats are limited—secure yours now for a fantastic opportunity to meet the speakers and connect with the community. **Event outline** James Ross, CTO of SEEK, sits down for an informal fireside chat on AI transformation. No slides, just questions: • What building with AI on the side has changed about how he thinks about engineering at seek • What's been tried, what's worked and what hasn't • Where it's hardest: people, process or tooling • The experiments he's most excited to run next • His advice to other leaders **About James** James has spent about half of his four decades in tech as a programmer and tech lead, and the other half as a senior manager and leader across startups, scale-ups and corporates. He's had more luck than he thinks is fair, and is one of the only people you'll meet who's written a book you can buy on Amazon, music you can listen to on Spotify and software you can buy online as well. He's very excited about getting his coding mojo back thanks to AI and although he failed to get either of his daughters into tech, he's going to try again with his two grandkids! Don’t miss this opportunity to gain invaluable insights and network with industry experts! **This is an in-person only event.** Doors open 12:15pm, core session from 12:30-1:30pm. See you there, Product Tank Melbourne Team

Beyond the Tools: The Human Skills That Matter in an AI World

Thu, Nov 5, 6:30 AM

From Melbourne Business Agility Meetup

4.7

We hear plenty about the skills people need in an AI world. But what do the people using AI in industry have to say? At Victoria University’s inaugural AI Skills Hackathon, students interviewed 23 industry practitioners about AI in their work. Associate Professor Natasha Dwyer will share insights from those conversations, analysed against employability skills frameworks. The usual suspects such as strong communication skills proved crutial. The value lies in the detail: how practitioners describe those skills in the context of their own industries. The interviews also explored AI’s potential to level the playing field. Smaller organisations can often adopt faster than large organisations, and that speed is an advantage. AI can help small and medium enterprises to compete with more resourced organisations. Join us to discuss what these industry perspectives mean for human skills, organisational adaptability and where competitive advantage might emerge. \-\-\- More about Natasha (Tash): Associate Professor Dwyer coordinates the postgraduate digital media program at Victoria University. Her research explores the socio-technical elements of trust. Since 2023, she has led conversational AI projects, with both traditional and practical research outcomes. One of these projects, the Welcome Room, features in TEQSA's (Higher ed. governance body) Generative AI Emerging Practice Toolkit and is currently developing it into an interface designed for students with a wide range of functional needs. She previously served as Interactive Designer at the Australian Centre for the Moving Image and was a Research Fellow at British Telecom. Her role was to facilitate public access to ACMI’s collection

Startup Pitch & Themed Networking Melbourne | Unlock Your Idea

Fri, Nov 13, 7:00 AM

From Startup Networking & Founder Ecosystem | Melbourne

4.0

Join founders, investors and tech talent at this curated **startup networking event in Melbourne.** Meet ambitious builders, exchange ideas and discover new opportunities in a dynamic community environment. **RSVP: [Use this link](https://luma.com/n5wg2yi1)** **Please note that RSVP is managed via luma to control attendee lists — don’t ignore it to avoid issues with on-site payment.** You've been running the idea past AI. AI has never once told you it wouldn't work. Tonight you get a room that will. Five founders, five minutes each, The Duke of Wellington in Melbourne. Friday. **Three reasons people come back:** * You get a table, not a lap of the room. You pick a topic the room voted on and stay there for the hour, instead of wandering with a drink looking for a gap in somebody else's conversation. * You get a stage short enough to be honest. Five minutes each, no slides read out loud, then the room asks questions. The questions are the good part. * You get the hour after. The stage ends, nobody's performing any more, and the floor stays open. That's the hour people actually remember. **Your ticket is also a login:** Most events end when you walk out. This one hands you a link: your profile, who else is coming before you get there, a group chat for this specific Friday, and a recap afterwards of who you actually met. Then you land in the Melbourne space and stay there. That's where the second conversation happens, the one you meant to have before the room got loud. Free with your ticket, on the web or in Telegram: [ascentvalley.com/community](https://ascentvalley.com/community) **Is this your room?** Yes, if you're building something, anywhere from the first line of code to Series A. Or you run a function at a company that's scaling, write the code, do the hiring, or you're still deciding whether to start. Probably not, if what you're picturing is a room full of investors. How that actually works is further down, and it's better than the picture. Want the stage? [Apply ](https://ascentvalley.com/pitch)at Five founders an evening, and we answer everybody, including the people we don't pick. Applying is free, but you do need a ticket, because we check the order number. Never pitched before? Five minutes is short enough that it's over before the nerves have finished arriving. **What we don't promise, and what we do instead** We don't promise an investor will be in the room on any given Friday. Angels and people who work at funds come, some Fridays several of them, and we won't tell you in advance who's coming, because we don't know. **We don't run a judging panel, hand out a prize, or keep a leaderboard.** Here's what doesn't depend on who walks in that night. Your application to the stage becomes your profile in our startup directory, and a person reads it, not a scoring script. Once you're verified, that profile sits in front of the funds and angels in our network, and they ask for the introduction themselves when your company matches what they're actually looking for. You choose whether you're in the weekly digest and you can leave it any time. We never sell your details, we don't take equity, we don't take a cut of your round, and we don't give investment advice. Which means the room on Friday isn't the whole opportunity. It's the part you can see: [ascentvalley.com/pitch](https://ascentvalley.com/pitch) Why it's worth a Friday * Watching somebody explain their company in five minutes teaches you more about explaining yours than another evening alone with the deck. * You'll hear the question you've been quietly avoiding get asked out loud to somebody else, and you get to watch how they handle it. * That skill travels. It works on a first date, in a performance review, and at the dinner where somebody asks what you do and you've got twenty seconds before their eyes move on. So bring the friend who keeps saying they have an idea. Five minutes on that stage is the shortest distance between having an idea and finding out what a room full of strangers thinks of it.

Spring 2026 Meet Up

Tue, Nov 10, 6:30 AM

From Melbourne Data Platform User Group

4.6

We are hosting a "Super Night" on Tuesday, 10th November 2026. We will hear from: **Warwick Rudd and Ginger Grant will present remotely on how to Build Generative AI Solutions with SQL Server 2025** SQL Server 2025 introduces native support for vector storage and AI-driven query capabilities, fundamentally changing how generative AI solutions can be built within the database engine. Rather than exporting data to external platforms or introducing complex data movement pipelines, organisations can now design and operationalise AI workloads directly where their data already resides. In this session, you will learn how to leverage SQL Server 2025’s built-in vector architecture to store embeddings, perform similarity searches, and power retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) scenarios using your enterprise data. We will walk through the new T-SQL AI syntax that allows you to integrate large language models into standard query workflows, enabling tasks such as semantic search, summarisation, and contextual question answering without leaving the SQL environment. You will see how to configure and connect to the AI model of your choice, including how to define model endpoints, control where models are hosted, and manage inference execution within SQL Server. The session focuses on practical implementation, showing how to design production-ready patterns that combine relational data with vector-based intelligence while maintaining governance, security, and performance. By the end of this session, you will understand how to build, deploy, and scale generative AI solutions natively in SQL Server 2025, eliminating unnecessary architecture complexity and bringing AI directly to your data platform. **Plus one other speaker with details to come.** **Come and share pizza, great conversation and free learning.** Schedule: 5.30-6.00 Pizza and Networking 6.00-7.30 Interactive sessions

Shipping with AI - Live in-person event

Wed, Nov 11, 7:00 AM

From The UX Book Club

4.7

Hi folks, Exciting news. The UX Book Club is sponsoring an awesome live in-person event, happening in Melbourne Australia on 11 November. The event is an AI meetup. RSVP quick! Details below. // OVERVIEW The Shipping with AI meetup (formerly UX Design in SaaS) has partnered with the [Outlook AI Conference 2026](https://theoutlook.io/events/outlook-ai) to bring you an in-person evening as part of the conference activities. Shipping with AI is a meetup for designers, product managers and engineers who want to move past the hype and learn how AI is actually being used to build and ship real products. No theory-heavy keynotes. Just demos, real workflows and practical tips you can take back to your team the next day. // WHAT IS HAPPENING Our three speakers come at AI from different angles: delivery in regulated industries, engineering and AI agents, and design quality. They'll each share how their teams are shipping with AI right now. That includes the tools, the workflows, what's working, and what they've learned the hard way. Expect presentations, live demos, Q&A, drinks, food, games, prizes and plenty of time to network. // WHEN 6:00pm – 8:30pm, Wednesday 11th November // WHERE Nintex Offices, Level 14, 530 Collins Street, Melbourne VIC 3000 // WHY COME ALONG * See it, don't just hear about it. Live demos of real AI workflows, not slides about the future. * Practical takeaways. Tips and tricks you can try with your team straight away. * Three perspectives in one night. Delivery, engineering and design, so you get the full picture of what it takes to ship with AI. * Ask the hard questions. How do you keep AI output on-brand? How do you bring AI into regulated businesses safely? How do you give coding agents the right context? * Meet your people. Connect with Melbourne designers, PMs and engineers working through the same challenges. * It's free, and there's food, drinks and prizes. // OUR SPEAKERS ANASTAS MANOJLOVSKI – Technical Director, Whitefox Cloud Consulting Anastas has spent 20 years where customers, sales and engineering meet. He specialises in turning messy problems into solutions that actually get delivered. At Whitefox he leads sales and delivery for clients in financial services, insurance, health and logistics, and oversees 25+ engineers across Australia and offshore. His work includes governed Claude adoption with human review and audit trails for financial advice provider Padua, and AI road-defect detection models running in production. Before Whitefox, he spent nine years at Whispir, including five as AU/NZ Head of Solution Architecture. Anastas brings a grounded view on getting AI into regulated businesses without creating new risk. TOM PETERSON – Co-Founder, ctxpipe.ai Tom is a builder who orchestrates local and cloud AI models to get things done, fast. He is co-founder of ctxpipe.ai, an open-source, Git-backed context layer for coding agents and software factories. He is also Head of Product at TRU Rec AI, building computer vision analytics with open-source models. With 15 years in tech across project management, business analysis, design, product and founding, Tom is passionate about developer experience and building tools that make engineers' lives easier. Previously, he co-founded Appear, an API discovery and automation tool. HAMISH O'NEILL – Founder, UI Rules Hamish is a multi-award-winning design leader with more than two decades in digital product design across retail, telecommunications, finance and digital marketplaces. He is the founder of UI Rules, a governance layer that serves brand and design system rules to AI coding tools like Cursor, Claude Code and v0, keeping AI-generated interfaces on-brand. Previously, Hamish was Head of Design Systems at Carsales, where he led the team behind the Torq design system. Before that he was Design Chapter Lead and Design Lead for the Brand & Design System at ANZ. // OUTLOOK AI CONFERENCE The [Outlook AI Conference 2026](https://theoutlook.io/events/outlook-ai) is on Thursday 12th November in Melbourne and is not to be missed. [Tickets are on sale now](https://theoutlook.io/events/outlook-ai#block-tickets-62bf87ad-1efc-4e26-91e6-cd62d9c8affb). // SPONSORS A big thank you to Nintex and the UX Book Club, our amazing sponsors, for making this event happen.

Frequently asked questions

A CEO Roundtable is a gathering where business leaders come together to discuss strategies, share experiences, and exchange ideas. Participants gain valuable insights and deepen their knowledge through collaborative conversations in a supportive environment.

Search for Melbourne-specific events on Meetup using the location filter. This will help you discover local gatherings like CEO roundtables where business leaders convene to share expertise and grow their network.

Roundtables attract business CEOs and professionals seeking to share insights and challenges. The environment fosters learning and collaboration among peers, allowing for a deeper understanding and new perspectives on business challenges.

Participation often depends on individual event requirements. Some roundtables welcome senior executives from various levels, while others focus specifically on CEOs. Check the event details on Meetup for specific prerequisites.

Typically, Meetup is free or low-cost, but specific events may have fees. Review the event’s information page to find out about any associated costs and to understand what benefits are included when joining the roundtable.

You can RSVP directly on the Meetup page for the event. This helps organizers plan better and keeps you in the loop regarding event updates or changes. Simply click 'RSVP' and follow any additional instructions provided.

Location and preference determine if events are online or in-person. For Melbourne's CEO roundtables, check the event listing for a specific mode of interaction planned by the hosts. Options may vary depending on the organizer's logistics.

Frequency varies based on organizer planning. Some may host monthly or quarterly gatherings, while others occur less regularly. Keep an eye on Meetup listings to stay updated on new events and their scheduling.

Meetup is designed for group interactions rather than individual matchmaking. Through its structured events, participants meet several people with similar interests, fostering community interaction and networking.

Topics can vary by event but typically focus on common business challenges and trends. Ensure you review event descriptions to understand the specific subjects covered, helping you choose the roundtables that best suit your interests.

Event styles differ, with some organized with strict agendas and others more open-ended. Familiarize yourself with the chosen roundtable's setup by reading the event details on Meetup, ensuring it aligns with your participation objectives.

Events are organized by individual groups, not Meetup itself. Hosts or group organizers manage the agenda, location, and logistics while Meetup connects interested participants through their platform.

If no local roundtables are available, consider exploring online events or even initiating your own group. Meetup provides tools to connect with new members, engage attendees, and build a community around your interests.

While Meetup fosters connections, achieving personal or business growth depends on active participation and engagement. Success stems from leveraging insights and networks created during events to drive personal leadership development.

Availability varies by city and organizer activity. If particular events aren't available in Melbourne, keep an eye on Meetup for new opportunities, as communities continually evolve and grow.
