Speaker announcement 📣

We’re excited to welcome Emeka Nwankwo, Co-Founder & CTO of Novastorms, to the upcoming AI Showcase & Mixer on June 9 in partnership with Tribe.

Novastorms has built In-House Insights, a privacy-focused AI platform that turns natural language questions into real-time data analysis. Users can connect databases or upload datasets, ask questions naturally, and the platform generates and executes the required analysis behind the scenes to deliver answers, visualizations, and reports.

Join us for an evening of AI demos, innovation, and networking as we showcase exciting work happening across the ecosystem.

🏃‍♀️ Volta Run Club is Back – Starting June 5!

We’re excited to announce that the Volta Run Club is back for the season starting Friday, June 5!

Join us every Friday morning for a friendly 5K waterfront run led by Jared Perry. The perfect way to move, connect, and kick off your day with the community.

📅 When: Every Friday from 8:00 AM – 9:00 AM (please arrive by 7:55 AM)
📍 Meeting Point: Front of the building, 1800 Argyle St., Halifax, NS

We’ll gather outside the front of Volta’s building before heading out together at an approachable pace of 5:30–6:00 min/km, looping back to finish at Volta.

This is a relaxed and social run. No racing, no pressure, just a great way to stay active and meet fellow runners. After the run, stick around for refreshments provided at Volta. ☕

Whether you’re a regular runner or just looking to get moving, everyone is welcome.

Claude's coming back to Halifax on Monday, June 1!

And this time to help you go from beginner to agent-curious, here's why:

I'm seeing three camps right now:
→ the agent-pilled, who can't stop building and running their agents
→ the skeptics, who believe it's all hype
→ the curious, who are exploring and tinkering their way towards building real things

The curiosity starts the conversation, the hands-on building makes us learn.

So we're doing a night for it.

📆 Monday, June 1
🕕 6:00pm – 8:00pm
📍 Volta, 1800 Argyle St, Halifax

In addition to meeting other Claude-curious/pilled people, what you'll get:

→ Live demos of AI agents doing real business work. The stuff that helps you picture what your agents could do.
→ Understand the basics of building agents/workflows in simple words
→ A simple way to think about adding AI to your team
→ Honest answers about what AI can and can't do for your business yet
→ Q&A
→ Official Anthropic & Claude merch
