Build Your Own AI Agent: Workshop and Roundtable

A free afternoon for marketers who want to get past AI demos: build a working AI agent yourself with teachers beside you, then talk frankly about what AI really changes in marketing work. Run by the Amsterdam Data Academy as an official World AI Week event. Walk-in 15:00, programme from 15:10, close at 18:00. Marek, AI agent expert and teacher at the Amsterdam Data Academy, opens on what an agent is and how one gets from demo to production, then leads a hands-on build in n8n. From 16:30 there is a small facilitated round table with Ishan Singh, marketing leader at Uber, on what is genuine and what is still noise, followed by networking from 17:30. Free, in the Sustainalab at Matrix ONE, Science Park 301. Two things the organisers require before you arrive: bring a charged laptop and its charger, because a tablet or phone will not work for the workshop, and accept the n8n invitation emailed to you and create the account in advance. No programming experience is needed. Places are limited and sign-up asks for your company and job title. Why go: the build-it-yourself format is the fastest way for a non-engineer to understand what agents can and cannot do. Aimed squarely at marketing directors, managers and agency leads.
