Agile Fireworks 🎆

This November, Agile Nottingham is lighting the fuse on Agile Fireworks - An evening of sparks, bangs, bright ideas and challenges ready to ignite.

Behind the fireworks theme, this is still very much a Scrum Clinic at heart.
Bring along something from your world of work that needs a little extra spark. Perhaps your retrospectives have lost their fizz.
Maybe your backlog is creating more smoke than clarity.
Perhaps you're struggling to get stakeholders aligned, trying to reignite a transformation that's lost momentum, or tackling a team challenge that refuses to go off with a bang.
Don't expect a panel of experts delivering a silver bullet solution. Instead, we'll harness the collective experience, insights and curiosity of the room. Together we'll explore challenges, ask questions, share stories, challenge assumptions and hopefully create a few moments of inspiration along the way.

And whilst we're calling it a Scrum Clinic, your challenge doesn't need to be about Scrum. Agile, delivery, product, leadership, change, teams or organisational transformation - if it's something happening in your working world, bring it along.
You don't even need to bring a challenge. You're equally welcome to come along, join the conversation, share your experiences and help others spark new ideas.

Expect an informal and friendly evening, plenty of discussion, practical insights, a few stories of things that have exploded unexpectedly, and hopefully enough bright ideas to keep the momentum burning long after the event ends.

Come and light the fuse on your toughest challenge. 🎇

Nottingham Programmers will be at the CANALHOUSE, Thursday, 19th November from 7pm. https://www.castlerockbrewery.co.uk/pubs/canalhouse/

Notts Progs is a social event, so you don't need a laptop. Absolutely everyone is welcome—yes, you! Whether you're a seasoned developer, a weekend tinkerer, an absolute beginner, or someone who's simply curious, this is your chance to meet people.

No formal structure, no rigid agenda—just a warm, welcoming space for tech enthusiasts from Nottingham and beyond to connect and socialise.

We're a very informal group, so please come and say hello!

AWS Student Builder Group NTU: Introduction to AWS & Hands-On Workshop

Join us for the first AWS Student Builder Group event at Nottingham Trent University - Clifton Campus Pavilion Building rooms 121 - 123 !
Whether you're completely new to cloud computing or already have some experience with AWS, this is a great opportunity to learn, build, and connect with fellow students who share an interest in technology.
We'll kick things off with an introduction to Amazon Web Services (AWS), exploring the fundamentals of cloud computing and some of the services used to build modern applications. You'll also get to see a live demonstration of AWS in action.
The session will then move into a hands-on workshop, where you'll have the opportunity to explore AWS and work on a simple cloud-based project, with guidance and support available throughout.
We'll also introduce you to the AWS Student Builder Group community, AWS Builder Center, and the learning resources and opportunities available to students.

What to Expect

• Introduction to AWS and cloud computing
• Live AWS demonstration
• Beginner-friendly, hands-on activities
• AWS learning resources and student opportunities

The Databricks Nottingham Meetup is getting started, and we'd love to see you there. Join us for a friendly, in-person evening of data, AI and good conversation. This is the very first meetup, so come and meet the people building with Databricks in Nottingham.

We're kicking things off with Ed Ball from Oakbrook Finance, who'll show how a regulated lender governs its data on Databricks and then opens it up to more people. A second talk is still to come, and there's a break for pizza and refreshmebts in the middle.

Governing Data on Databricks: Unity Catalog, ABAC and Genie
Ed Ball, Oakbrook Finance

Databricks makes it easy to move fast with data, but governing it without slowing people down is harder. This talk shows how Oakbrook Finance, a regulated lender, uses Unity Catalog and attribute-based access controls to apply policy consistently, and how that foundation lets us open up data to far more people through Genie. Expect practical lessons on what worked and what didn't, whatever the size of your team or industry.

About Ed
Ed Ball is Head of Data, Security & Service Management at Oakbrook Finance, where he leads data, security and service delivery. He has a background in software, data and security leadership and has been a Data Protection Officer in financial services since 2018. He holds CIPP/E and CIPM certifications from the IAPP and has spoken at Big Data London (2025).

Second talk
To be announced soon.

Places are limited, so please RSVP on the Meetup page. All experience levels are welcome, from the data team to the business and governance side.

Proudly sponsored by DATAPAO.
Thanks to The Poynt for hosting.

Come hang out and celebrate all the awesome ways tech is getting more diverse and inclusive!
