⌖ Newcastle · Northern Design Centre

Hosted by Digital Pathfinders

Learn how to adopt AI without exposing your organisation to avoidable intellectual property, data or financial risks at this practical Gateshead workshop. Taking place on Wednesday 28 October 2026, from 9:30am to 12:30pm, AI: Myths, Risks & Benefits offers a clear-eyed introduction to the potential downsides of artificial intelligence,and the practical measures small organisations can take to protect themselves. The three-hour, in-person session will be held at the Northern Design Centre in Gateshead, within the wider Newcastle area. What the workshop covers AI can create genuine benefits, but organisations may adopt it without fully understanding what happens to their information, content or budget. Rather than relying on hype or technical jargon, this workshop examines common ways AI use can go wrong and what those mistakes could cost. Topics include: - Intellectual property: how businesses can unintentionally hand over valuable ideas or material through everyday use of free AI tools, including services that train on information submitted by users. - Personal information and data exposure: how sensitive information may be revealed, and what that could mean both for your organisation and for the people whose data you hold. - Cost management: why unchecked AI usage can lead to runaway costs and why organisations need to keep an eye on consumption. - Reducing exposure: practical steps that help teams use AI more sensibly while limiting avoidable risks. The emphasis is on helping attendees understand what to watch for before problems arise. By the end of the session, you should have a more grounded view of AI’s risks and benefits, alongside practical ways to approach adoption with greater care. Who should attend? This workshop is designed specifically for small businesses and charities that want to start using AI,or improve how they already use it,without being caught out by hidden consequences. No prior technical knowledge is required, making it suitable for leaders, staff and decision-makers who need an accessible overview rather than a highly technical session. The event is organised by Digital Pathfinders and takes place at Northern Design Centre, Abbott’s Hill, Gateshead NE8 3DF. Register for AI: Myths, Risks & Benefits

AiX Conference brings AI and product design leaders to Newcastle on 21 April 2027 for a focused day of talks, ideas and networking. Designing with AI starts here This one-day AI × Design conference explores how artificial intelligence is changing the way digital products are designed, built and experienced. Rather than spreading the programme across competing sessions, AiX uses one stage and one track, giving everyone a shared journey through the most important questions facing modern design and product teams. Attendees will hear how practitioners are applying AI in real working environments, discover emerging tools and examine examples of design innovation. The programme centres on two closely connected themes: - Designing AI products: how teams create AI-powered experiences that people can trust and enjoy using - Building with AI: how designers and product teams use AI to move from early ideas towards production more quickly The event is particularly relevant to product designers, design leaders and members of digital product teams who want to understand AI’s practical impact on their craft. It will also appeal to professionals responsible for shaping product experiences, evaluating emerging workflows or helping teams adopt AI thoughtfully. No specific experience level is stated; the emphasis is on industry insight, real-world practice and the changing relationship between AI, design and product development. Speakers announced for 2027 The developing line-up brings together designers and design leaders working across banking, employee benefits, sustainability software and technology products: - Jay Clark, Senior Design Manager at Monzo Bank - Miriam Khenissi, Senior Product Designer at Perkbox - Tom Hiskey, Senior Product Designer at EcoOnline - Stephen Patterson, Principal Product Designer at Deck - Paavan Buddhdev, Product Designer at Granola Further speakers are due to be announced as the 2027 programme is refined. Alongside the talks, the conference offers opportunities to connect with the people exploring and shaping AI-led product design. Its single-track format creates common ground for conversations throughout the day, making it easier to compare approaches, discuss lessons from the stage and build relationships with peers facing similar design challenges.… Register for this event

⌖ Newcastle · The Catalyst

Hosted by Jumping Rivers

AI in Production 2027 brings practitioners to The Catalyst in Newcastle on 10–11 June to share real-world lessons from deployed AI and machine learning systems. The conference opens with workshops on Thursday, followed by a full Friday programme of standard talks and lightning talks. Its focus is firmly on AI systems used beyond the people who built them, not speculative predictions, standalone benchmarks or polished product pitches. Call for speakers Jumping Rivers is accepting abstracts until 29 January 2027. Proposed talks can explore: - Deployment, serving, rollouts and rollbacks - Monitoring, observability, drift and feedback loops - Evaluation, human review, red-teaming and guardrails - RAG pipelines, agents and assistants in production - Cost, latency, caching and model-selection trade-offs - Production incidents and the lessons that followed - Responsible AI, regulation, governance and liability - Ownership and collaboration across technical teams Strong abstracts should describe a specific system, a consequential decision or turning point, what went wrong, and one clear takeaway supported by evidence where possible. Work in progress, internal tools, small-scale systems and discontinued projects are all welcome, and first-time speakers are explicitly encouraged. Standard sessions run for approximately 25 minutes, including five minutes for questions. Lightning talks last six minutes, use slides that advance automatically every 20 seconds and conclude with one question. Standard-talk speakers receive a free conference ticket. Submit a title and an abstract of up to 300 words through the speaker submission form. Applicants should hear back within two months of the deadline, and likely sooner.
