Claude Sydney Meetup — AI Builders & Claude Code

The hardest part of building right now isn't the tools. It's finding the people who get it. The ones shipping side projects before lunch. Rewriting how their team works with Claude Code. Quietly building the future and wondering if anyone else is too. This meetup is that room. One night in Sydney. If you're doing the work, you belong here. What to Expect 6:00 PM — Doors Open Settle in, and say hello to fellow builders. 6:30 - 7:30 PM — Talks Talk 1 AI-Enabled SDLC: From Startup to Global Enterprise One human, one AI agent, nearly 500 production pull requests, and a global enterprise rollout: what really breaks when you give AI autonomy in the SDLC, and which guardrails transfer.
