Mindstone Lisbon June AI Meetup

Welcome to the biggest Practical AI Meetup in Lisbon!

Join us once a month as we explore the world of artificial intelligence, its cutting-edge practical applications, and the astonishing projects that are shaping our future.

Why should you attend?

  • Learn from the brightest minds in the field and gain valuable insights into the ever-evolving AI landscape.
  • Unleash your curiosity, fuel your creativity, and expand your network as you connect with fellow AI aficionados and pioneers.

What you can expect?

Mindstone events consist of two talks covering different aspects:

  • The AI Talent Gap Nobody’s Talking About: Alex Ponomarev explores why workflow orchestration — the ability to design, manage, and improve teams of AI agents — is becoming one of the most valuable skills in the AI era. Learn how engineering management principles apply to AI systems, why this capability is missing in today's talent market, and how organizations can build it internally. Attendees will leave with a practical framework, a reusable orchestration checklist, and clear next steps for implementing AI more effectively.
  • AI for Marketing: How to Build Any Marketing Asset in 30 Minutes: In this live demonstration, Alex Russo shows how to create marketing assets from scratch using AI. Through his V.O.I.C.E. framework and multiple AI workflows running in parallel, you'll see the creation of product photos, landing page copy, lead magnets, and video advertisements in real time. You'll leave with practical techniques and tools you can immediately apply to your own marketing efforts.
  • Panel Discussion: A moderated discussion with all speakers, diving deeper into the topics covered and opening the floor for audience questions and perspectives.

After the talks we'll have pizza, drinks, and time to connect with everyone around you.

Don't miss the opportunity to see what's really happening in AI - you'll be surprised at what's already possible today.

We have limited spots available, so get your ticket ahead of time to avoid disappointment!

Welcome and event introduction
The AI Talent Gap Nobody’s Talking About by Alex Ponomarev
We will explore why the most valuable AI skill emerging today is workflow orchestration — the ability to design, manage, and improve teams of AI agents. We will see how the principles of effective engineering management apply directly to AI systems, why this capability is largely missing in today’s talent market, and how organizations can develop it internally. Attendees will leave with a practical framework, a reusable orchestration checklist, and concrete actions to help their teams work more effectively with AI.

AI for Marketing: How to Build Any Marketing Asset in 30 Minutes by Alex Russo
Most AI marketing outputs sound like AI marketing outputs because most people are using the tools wrong (and not having fun with them). In this 30-minute live session, Alex builds real marketing assets from scratch on stage using his V.O.I.C.E. framework, running multiple AI workflows in parallel: a product photoshoot, landing page copy, a lead magnet, and a cinematic video ad. By the end you'll understand exactly how to generate everything you (and your clients) needs to kickstart their marketing by leveraging the right AI tools.
