FORGE Founders Walk & Coffee | Albert Park 5K

Fri, Jul 24, 11:00 PM

From FORGE Founders Club

**Good coffee. A 5k walk. Better company.** FORGE is a social club for founders and operators actively building real businesses - and this is our very first event. We’re meeting at **9am at Space Cafe on Fitzroy Street** to grab a coffee before heading out for a relaxed 5k walk around Albert Park Lake. Along the way, we’ll mix things up a few times so you get the chance to meet and chat with plenty of people, without the awkwardness of walking into a room and trying to “network”. After the walk, we’ll finish back at Space Cafe, where anyone who wants to can stick around for brunch. ***Who's it for?*** People who are **actively building and running businesses** and want to meet others who understand the highs, lows and occasional chaos that comes with it. You don’t need to be running a huge company. But you should be in the arena; building, operating and taking your business seriously. This probably *isn’t* the right event if you’re looking for a job, exploring your first business idea, or primarily hoping to pitch or sell your services. **Come to meet peers, not prospects.** ***What to expect*** ☕ Grab a coffee 🚶 A relaxed 5k walk around Albert Park Lake 👋 Plenty of opportunities to meet different founders and operators 🥐 Optional brunch afterwards 🚫 No pitches, panels, presentations or awkward networking Just good people, real businesses and conversations worth having. **Build boldly. Play fully.** See you there 👋

Unrealistic Expectations: Improv Speaking Games for Business & Life

Tue, Jul 28, 8:30 AM

From The Entrepreneur Club (Melbourne)

4.5

*NOTE: doors will be locked after 6pm, so there will be someone there to get you into the lift and up to the right floow.* *The generous people at Compass Offices have allowed us to use their Collins Street Office for this event. Check our their co-working space here* https://www.compassoffices.com/locations/360-collins-street/ **Unrealistic Expectations** is an entertaining, slightly chaotic evening of business and life related improv speaking games designed to help you practise action over certainty. Sign up as an audience member or a speaker, both are fun and packed full of laughs. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "This was a safe environment to fail." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Audience reactions are hilarious." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "I learnt that it was not as scary as I thought." **6:30** Arrival + Drinks **7:00** Games Begin **8:15** Wrap Up + Hangout ❓ **Why we do this** Entrepreneurs are often told their ideas are unrealistic. Too big. Too early. Too hard. This night is for people who feel that fear and want to build the courage to act before they have all the answers. **Volunteers get 1-4 minutes to talk on wacky topics:** * Pitching a slide deck they have never seen before * Taking questions from the audience on a topic they know nothing about * Being handed a random object from the office and explaining your "revoulutionary discovery" * Explaining a graph that has no numbers or legend * *More "fun" and chaotic games to come...* **Spectators get front row seats to:** * Brave attempts and clever recoveries * Watch brilliance appear under pressure * The exact moment someone realises they are more capable than they thought * And...comedy gold! 🎲 **How the night works** Some people will step up. Some people will sit back and enjoy the show. Both are welcome. You don’t have to participate but most people end up tempted as the night goes on. We’ll rotate through a variety of short games across the evening. Each one stretches a different entrepreneurial muscle: • Thinking out loud • Explaining half-formed ideas • Handling pressure • Committing before certainty 😉At the end of the night, one brave participant will receive a completely meaningless but highly coveted honour. 👀 **Who this is for** • People building something and tired of waiting until they feel ready • Anyone who wants to build the courage to act before they have clarity You don’t need confidence You don’t need experience You just need a willingness to give-it-a-go **Because most worthwhile things start with unrealistic expectations.**

Streaming systems, hidden risks, and AI-driven consequences

Mon, Jul 27, 7:30 AM

From Data Engineering Melbourne

4.6

* Topic: Streaming systems, hidden risks, and AI-driven consequences * Date: Monday 27th July 2026 at 5:30 pm - 7:30 pm * Networking: 5:30 pm - 6:00 pm and 6:45 pm - 7:30 pm * Presentation Time: 6:00 pm - 6.45 pm *(includes welcome, presentation 30 mins & community marketplace)* * Location: Thoughtworks HQ Level 35/360 Collins St, Melbourne VIC 3000 * Ticket: Free of cost, however, registrations and RSVP are required! * Sponsor: Thoughtworks, Confluent **Abstract** Modern AI systems don’t rely on static datasets, they depend on continuous streams of real-time data to train, update, and make decisions. We explore streaming data pipelines as a critical attack vector for AI-driven applications. Instead of targeting models directly, attackers manipulate the data flowing into them. By injecting, modifying, or replaying events, adversaries poison training data, distort real-time features, and influence decisions without detection. We’ll examine how these attacks work in practice, from subtle data drift to targeted event injection, and why traditional security measures fall short. We’ll look at key weaknesses in modern pipelines and explore defensive strategies that go beyond infrastructure security. **About The Speaker** Olena is a Staff Developer Advocate at Confluent and a recognized expert in data streaming and analytics. With two decades of experience in software engineering, she has built mission-critical applications, led high-performing teams, and driven large-scale technology adoption at industry leaders like Nokia, HERE Technologies, AWS, and Aiven. A passionate advocate for real-time data processing and AI-driven applications, Olena empowers developers and organizations to use the power of streaming data. She is an AWS Community Builder, a dedicated mentor, and a volunteer instructor at a nonprofit tech school, helping to shape the next generation of engineers. As an international speaker and thought leader, Olena regularly presents at top global conferences, sharing deep technical insights and hands-on expertise. Whether through her talks, workshops, or content, she is committed to making complex technologies accessible and inspiring innovation in the developer community.
