Build, review and ship software with Claude Code in this live online bootcamp on 18 October 2026, from 2pm to 8:30pm UTC. Move beyond basic AI-assisted coding Claude Code Bootcamp Cohort 2 is an intensive, 6.5-hour hands-on workshop for developers who want structured, reliable and repeatable AI engineering workflows, not simply a longer list of prompts. Led by headliner Luca Berton and organised by Packt Publishing Limited, the session connects Claude Code’s individual capabilities into a practical system spanning codebase understanding, implementation, testing, review and preparation for production. Across 10 new advanced hands-on projects, you’ll explore how to: - Structure projects with CLAUDE.md and scoped rules - Create and apply reusable Claude Code Skills - Build specialised subagents for security and testing - Add hooks and guardrails that automate checks and block unsafe actions - Use Best-of-N workflows to compare AI-generated solutions - Test, review and verify AI-generated code - Assess whether work is ready to merge and ready for production - Develop more controlled and repeatable AI-assisted engineering processes Rather than treating these as isolated features, the bootcamp demonstrates how they work together across the software development lifecycle. The live, project-based format is designed to help attendees practise real workflows and leave with a more complete Claude Code toolkit. Who should attend? The programme is suitable for software developers, AI/ML engineers, platform and DevOps engineers, tech leads, developers exploring Claude Code, and people preparing for Claude certification. Basic programming ability and familiarity with Git are recommended, making this most relevant to technical attendees who already understand core development concepts but do not necessarily have extensive Claude Code experience. This is an independent Packt workshop rather than official Anthropic training. It is not endorsed by Anthropic, does not contain official examination questions, and completion does not guarantee success in an official certification exam. Refunds are available up to 10 days before the event. Get tickets for Claude Code Bootcamp Cohort 2

Hosted by AI Strategy Lab - Manchester

Build a Personal AI DNA file in this 45-minute online workshop and make ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot or Gemini produce writing that sounds like you. Hosted by Emery Layton for AI Strategy Lab – Manchester, this practical session takes place on Thursday 22 October 2026. It tackles a familiar problem for business owners and independent professionals: AI can produce polished copy, but the result often feels generic, anonymous and time-consuming to edit. Rather than treating this as a prompting failure, Emery frames it as an onboarding problem. During the workshop, you will create a Personal AI DNA file: a single page of plain text that gives an AI essential context about who you are, who you serve, how you communicate and what you would never say. What you’ll cover The session combines accessible AI strategy with a live, hands-on build. Topics include: - What AI is in plain language, and what it cannot do - Three current news developments that matter to business owners - Where AI tools are heading and what remains constant as they change - Why AI-generated writing often feels generic - The six components of a Personal AI DNA file, illustrated with examples - A four-minute method for capturing your writing voice - A live build in which Emery writes his file while you create yours - A side-by-side test using the same request with and without your DNA file You can use a free account for ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot or Gemini. No paid plan or specialist software is required; a laptop and a basic notepad are enough. Who it’s for This workshop is designed for business owners, coaches, consultants and freelancers who write frequently and want to reduce the time spent rewriting generic AI output. Complete beginners are welcome, while regular AI users should find particular value in the build and testing portion. Emery Layton is a licensed Professional Engineer with 25 years of experience in water and wastewater infrastructure. Working in a field where errors carry real liability shaped his approach to AI: accuracy, consistency and reliability take priority over novelty or showmanship.

⌖ Bangkok · Treehouse Cafe & Bar

Hosted by Jaume R.

Build AI products people will pay for at this informal builders meetup in Bangkok, taking place on 25 October 2026 at Treehouse Cafe & Bar. From AI idea to paying customer Vibe Coding Products in Bangkok brings together people who are using AI to turn early ideas into useful, launchable products. Hosted by Jaume R., this first edition creates a relaxed setting where builders can show their work, compare approaches and help one another make progress. The meetup runs from 5:00pm to 7:00pm ICT on Sunday, 25 October 2026 at Treehouse Cafe & Bar, 20 Sukhumvit 31 in Watthana. Rather than focusing only on code, the conversation will cover the full journey from deciding what to build to finding the first paying customer. Topics and questions may include: - Choosing an AI product idea worth pursuing - Turning a rough concept into a working prototype - Deciding how and when to launch - Working out what to charge - Finding early users and first customers - Getting feedback on a demo or half-built product - Moving an existing product beyond its current stage Attendees may be building with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another AI development tool. The emphasis is on sharing practical experiences rather than prescribing one particular stack. Who should attend? All stages are welcome. You might arrive with nothing more than an idea, a prototype that only partly works, or a product already earning revenue. You do not need a technical background, and you do not need to have made money from your project. Curiosity, a desire to build something useful and the motivation to keep moving are enough. Bring a demo if you have one, a question you want to explore, or a specific problem that has slowed you down. You can also come simply to meet other locally based AI builders and learn what they are creating. A conversational builders meetup Expect informal, peer-led conversations rather than a formal lecture or highly structured workshop. The format is designed for swapping ideas, receiving direct feedback and discussing both product development and commercial decisions with people who also want to ship. Attendees can additionally use Meetup’s event chat to connect before the session begins. View the event and registration details

Alongside the content, networking provides opportunities to meet potential partners, innovators and fellow practitioners working on industry-ready AI. Who should attend? This summit is particularly relevant to AI and machine-learning engineers, software engineers, technical architects, model operations and infrastructure teams, product builders, AI leaders and senior executives responsible for enterprise adoption. The material is geared towards practitioners and decision-makers with an active interest in building, deploying or scaling AI systems, rather than a general introductory audience. AIAI New York also brings together co-located summit content covering generative AI, agentic AI and executive AI leadership, with multi-track access promoted by the organiser. This creates a useful meeting point between hands-on builders and the leaders setting strategy, governance and risk priorities.… Register for this event
