Dear Hackers for Kindness, For those who run solo businesses, freelancers or can work from home, we would like to share a co-working event day on the last Wednesday of the month at a nurturing venue called Impact Story Lab. Students are welcome too! This group has been quiet for some time. Check out the description as to why I saved the group. Impact Story Lab is becoming a safe space for a number of impact groups to meet. And a great place to welcome Random Hacks Of Kindness. In an age of AI and misinformation, it's important to reconnect with like-minded positive people. Hence, this meetup event You can either join for the day or join for lunch! You can choose what works for you. We are supporting the Not-For-Profit Impact Story Lab Space. Here is the usual format: "Once a month, the Impact Story Lab opens its doors for a day of focused work, meaningful conversations and new collaborations. Whether you're building a social enterprise, working in a purpose-driven business, freelancing, studying, campaigning or simply looking for a more inspiring place to work for the day, you're welcome. Come for an hour, stay all day, or join us after work for this month's featured community event. *** What to expect Our coworking days are intentionally relaxed. Bring your laptop, settle into the space, meet other people working for impact and enjoy a productive day alongside a growing community of storytellers, creatives, researchers, community builders and changemakers. Throughout the day you'll find opportunities for: • Focused work • Informal conversations • New collaborations • Meeting people across sectors • Coffee, lunch and community There are no forced networking activities—just good people sharing a great space." Here are the details to [BOOK](https://events.humanitix.com/impact-co-working-day-or-29-july) I'll update these each month. **Costs** First time is FREE! If you are looking to book the co-working space, they have various packages. You do have to pay for a meal if you want catering. **Getting there** 10-15 minute walk from Kings Cross Station or Town Hall Station. That's about it! I look forward to seeing new and familiar faces for these wonderful co-working sessions. Remember, anything is possible. Together, we can make a better world probable. Kindly, Bob Sudharshan

Claude Code from Zero to Hero 301: Stop Doing Jobs. Start Delegating Them

Single-task AI is useful. Multi-agent AI is transformative. Tonight you'll build systems where Claude orchestrates a team of specialised subagents, each handling a part of a complex job simultaneously, while you watch it happen. Then you'll wire those agents into automated routines that run on a schedule, silently, without your input. This is the session where the full capability of what you've been building becomes visible. **What You'll Do** * Assign a complex, multi-part job to a team of subagents working simultaneously, done in an evening instead of days. * Build background automations for the tasks you'd rather never touch again, so they just happen. * Chain skills, tools, and scheduling into one self-sustaining routine: set it once, forget it. * Leave with a clear picture of what's possible, and a working prototype to prove it. **What You'll Learn** * Break a larger job into steps an AI assistant can handle. * Use subagents and structured workflows. * Assign a complex, multi-part job to a team of AI agents. * Build small automations for tasks you do often. * Combine skills, tools and scheduling into practical routines. * Spot where agentic AI can save serious time in your work. * Understand how to move from single prompts to multi-step AI systems. **You'll Walk Out With** * A clearer understanding of AI agents and delegation. * A working example of a multi-step AI workflow. * Ideas for applying AI to your job, business or side project. * An assistant concept that can run whole jobs, not just answer questions. * A stronger sense of what to build next. **Who This Is For** * Professionals ready to use AI beyond simple prompts. * Founders and operators who want to automate parts of their workflow. * Freelancers and consultants who want to build smarter delivery systems. * People who want AI to manage repeatable jobs while they focus on higher-value work. * Anyone with intermediate Claude Code or AI experience who wants to go deeper. **Earlier nights are recommended, but not mandatory. If you already have intermediate AI confidence, you can drop into 301 directly.** **Event Details** **📅 Tuesday 28 July 2026** **🕕 6:00–8:30 PM** **📍 Western Sydney Startup Hub, 5 Fleet Street, North Parramatta** **🎯 Level 301 · Intermediate experience beneficial** **Tickets** **$39 per session. ($29 for Early-bird)** No prerequisite, each session stands alone. Attending all three gives you the full arc from setup to full autonomous workflows. **Included** * Laptop access during the workshop & Claude and AI access ready to use (Worth $20). * Guided hands-on exercises. * Practical examples for real work. * Support and love from the WSTI team. * Bring your own laptop and Claude Pro licence if you prefer, but you do not need to.

Sydney SEO Collective - Will Wang (AI-First from Day One)

The Sydney SEO Collective is back for our July 2026 meetup — and this month we're stepping outside the search bubble to look at something bigger: what happens when you build an entire business around AI from day one. This month, we're thrilled to welcome Will Wang, Founder of Black Belt Consulting, to the stage. He'll be presenting: "AI-First from Day One: How We Built and Launched an $80K Online Business in 30 Days." This session is for anyone who wants to move past the AI hype and see what AI-first actually looks like in practice — the tools, the workflows, the mistakes, and the launch strategy behind a business that collected $76,979 in cash in its first month. Most businesses are trying to "add AI" to the way they already work. Will took the opposite approach and built natively around AI systems from the ground up. He'll unpack how the idea was validated, how the offer was shaped, and how AI was used across the build, marketing, sales, operations, and fulfilment. You'll walk away with a practical, behind-the-scenes look at building faster, leaner, and smarter in the AI era — and a clear sense of what actually mattered when it came time to launch. Will Wang is a growth marketer, copywriter, and entrepreneur based in Sydney. He built and sold a 7-figure marketing agency after helping more than 380 clients generate over $58 million in sales through direct response marketing, email outreach, and scalable growth systems. More recently, he launched an AI-first online business that generated $80,000 in its first month. Today, he helps business owners think sharper about offers, messaging, sales systems, and the new opportunities AI is creating for modern businesses. He's also a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belt — which shapes how he thinks about business: focus, discipline, leverage, and constant improvement.

The feedback we've had is that the Collective events have been a great way to meet others in the industry in a relaxed environment and share some tips and hints on what you might know that can help them become a better web marketer or developer. It's about asking those tough questions and getting group consensus on what is the possible implications or complications on a particular method or technique you're thinking of using. We encourage a mix of business owners, web developers, affiliate marketers, SEM and SEO professionals as we all have small tips that will help you perform better online and play smarter. SEO Collective is just a relaxed and informal session on digital and web marketing, come along and meet others in your community no matter if you're a business owner, consultant, in-house or part of a larger agency. ## RSVP now to claim your free ticket!

AI Special Event Crossover

Are you holding back on exploring AI as you’ve heard it’s going to change the way we work with the Web? Have you seen vibe coders and don’t quite get the attraction? Or have you tried AI and want to home your approach? Or help other developers learn from your journey? This month the team behind Cursor Sydney will takeover SydJS and give you another way to consider AI. Josh Crowley who’s a long time friend of SydJS and a Cursor Regional Ambassador will show us how he uses AI to collect, combine, and collaborate on ideas. He’ll show us using real examples how AI can make things faster, but also allow you to slow down and get the outcome you need
