Welcome to Tech Tuesdays!

The session runs on the 4th Tuesday of each month and you can 'pick and mix' the segments that you want to attend..

11am-midday TECH SURGERY: an informal networking session where we bring together out tech and innovation ecosystem with our non-tech founders.

Why? Well,

1. we'd love our tech ecosystem to be better connected across disciplines and meet more likeminded individuals for joint ventures, collaborations and conversations. Bring a banner and promote your tech/innovation business.

2. our non-tech founders know they need to upskill, become more digitally literate, embrace new technologies and adopt more efficient and future ready ai enabled solutions, but navigating those early options can feel like a minefield, where do you start when you dont even know what you need to ask for?

12-1pm LUNCH & LEARN: We'll provide the spotlight speaker (see the NatWest Accelerator App for speaker details) and a buffet to feed your tummy along -with your brain. Each session will welcome a new spotlight, to shine a light on local founders in our Accelerator network who have an innovative. digital or tech solution, a tip or tool that will be useful for our SME ecosystem.

1-2pm IOT Geek Out: Led by Lawrence Archard and IOTMK, this is a deeper level 'geek out' into everything 'internet of things'. Ideal for the more tech-curious and seasoned techie!

Lawrence will also be hosting an IOTMK pub meet up in the evening (bookable separately) for those who really want to make a day of it.. https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/o/iotmk-106985062611

Join us for another engaging and thought-provoking Milton Keynes Product Tank event, where you'll discover how to transform roadmaps from static documents into powerful tools that drive alignment, influence stakeholders, and create clarity across your organisation.

We're delighted to welcome special guest speaker Product Leader, Phil Hornby, who will lead an interactive session packed with practical insights, real-world experiences, and lively discussion.
We will discuss among other things:

• How to use roadmaps as tools for communication and alignment
• Timing and content should evolve as products mature
• Why combining features, outcomes, and risks creates more effective and adaptable roadmaps
• Visual storytelling approaches that make roadmaps more engaging, persuasive, and impactful

Expect an evening with opportunities to share experiences, challenge assumptions, and learn from fellow product professionals in the local community.

Hosted at the inspiring Aimii HQ in Milton Keynes and facilitated by Matt O'Connor, Principal Consultant, this is a fantastic opportunity to expand your product toolkit, connect with peers, and leave with fresh perspectives on one of product management's most important communication tools.
We'd love to see you there!

We are actively looking for 2026 sponsors, please reach out to enquire.

AI news and views

Closing 8:15 pm

After we close at 8:20 pm we are heading to Slug and Lettuce in CMK for a social.

You are very welcome to join us at the social.

Event Overview:
Join us to explore Artificial Intelligence (AI) and agents and how they are changing work in the tech industry.
We are a group of international technology speakers bringing the brightest and best minds in technology to the birthplace of AI.
We aim to demystify AI and delve into its practical applications and deepen your understanding. Designed for tech professionals, leaders, and knowledge workers, this seminar will navigate the opportunities for transformation using AI.

Purpose:

• Enhance AI literacy among participants from public and private sectors
• Provide practical insights into AI’s role in revolutionising business operations and educational practices
• Explore ethical considerations and responsible AI implementation
• Foster problem-solving capabilities using AI in unique industry contexts
• Lay the groundwork for continuous AI learning and adaptation
• Show hands on demos and provide lessons learned.

Join us for an evening exploring how modern Python, data, and AI workflows are moving from experimentation to real-world application.
This event will focus on practical talks and discussions around Agentic AI, Model Context Protocol (MCP), automation, and intelligent systems in practice. We are especially interested in how developers, data scientists, and engineers are building tools and workflows that can reason, act, integrate with systems, and deliver useful outcomes beyond simple prompts.
Expect sessions that may cover topics such as AI agents, LLM applications, MCP, workflow orchestration, automation pipelines, data science, machine learning, analytics, visualisation, and practical Python use cases. Whether the focus is a live demo, case study, technical walkthrough, or lessons from building real systems, the goal is to share ideas that are useful, grounded, and relevant.
This event is for anyone interested in the intersection of Python, data, AI, and automation, from curious learners to experienced practitioners.
Come along to learn, connect, and explore how code becomes insight, and how insight becomes action.
