The London Meetup
AISAT London - our second meeting
Chapters
Four rooms, and how they differ
Same standard of conversation in all four. What changes is the city, the size of the room and who is in it. You are welcome at every one of them; this is how to pick the one to start with.
London Meetups
Our biggest chapter. Practitioner talks, demos and an unusually good room to ask hard questions in.
Leeds Meetups
The northern home of AISAT. Same format, smaller room, and you will actually meet everyone.
Online Meetups
For everyone outside London and Leeds. Shorter, sharper sessions you can join from anywhere.
Women that Use AI
A chapter centring women working with AI: its own events, its own speakers, and a deliberately supportive room. Open to everyone.
Membership
How joining works
AISAT is a vetted community, which is the whole reason the room is any good. Every application is read by an organiser before anyone is let in. Here is the entire process.
Step 01
Apply with your LinkedIn
One short form. Your LinkedIn saves you writing a covering letter: it tells us what you build and who you build it for.
Step 02
An organiser reads it
A person, not a filter. Organisers read applications around their own jobs, so this takes as long as it takes. There is no instant approval.
Step 03
You get the WhatsApp invite
Approved members are sent the invite to the AISAT WhatsApp group, where dates, questions and the odd job lead land first.
Step 04
Add yourself to the AI Directory
Optional, and the part that keeps paying off. List yourself or your company against what you actually do, so the rest of the community can find you.
Applying takes a couple of minutes. The AI Directory and the chapter pages are public, so you can have a proper look around first and decide afterwards.

Findable by what you have actually done
A list of names is only useful to people who already know the name. So every listing is tagged on three axes (capability, sector and stack), and the directory answers the question someone actually has: who here has shipped RAG in financial services? Members add themselves or their company, and the tags are what keeps the whole thing worth searching as it grows.
- Be findable by people who already know the room you were in.
- Say what you have delivered, in a shape someone can actually filter on.
- Find the member who has already solved the thing you are stuck on.
