Leeds Data Science Meetup

Looking to understand how AI agents make intelligent decisions and adapt to complex real-world scenarios? This Leeds Data Science Meetup brings together students, scientists, engineers, and entrepreneurs passionate about data science and AI to explore cutting-edge developments in autonomous systems. ## What to Expect Shubhangi Goyal, an award-winning Data & AI Lead with nearly a decade of experience across Fortune 500 companies and agile startups, will present "Context driven AI Agents." This session moves beyond basic prompt engineering to explore how sophisticated AI agents use dynamic context to execute complex tasks. You'll discover how context engineering, memory management, and feedback loops enable agents to exhibit adaptive behaviour in production environments. ## Key Takeaways - Context engineering fundamentals — Learn how to manage memory tools and tasks for adaptive agent behaviour - Agent architecture — Understand how LLMs and feedback loops work together in agent systems - System-level prompt engineering — Move beyond single-prompt interactions to build robust multi-step workflows - Real-world deployment — Explore practical use cases and learn to avoid common pitfalls when deploying AI agents in production Shubhangi brings extensive experience from senior roles at FTSE100 financial services companies and ICS AI Ltd (a Microsoft UK inner circle partner), where she's focused on AI and data strategy at the technology forefront. She leads the London Chapter for Women In Data and has delivered sessions across ten countries, sharing expertise in data analytics, data science, and artificial intelligence. ## Who Should Attend This meetup is ideal for data scientists, ML engineers, software developers, and technology enthusiasts interested in building intelligent systems that go beyond simple chatbots. Whether you're working with ChatGPT, Claude, or other LLM platforms, you'll gain insights into architecting agents that can handle complex, multi-step tasks with real business value. ## Event Schedule 18:00-18:45 — Networking and refreshments (food served first-come, first-served) 18:45-18:50 — Welcome and introductions 18:50-20:00 — Shubhangi Goyal's presentation on Context driven AI Agents The event concludes with opportunities to share news about upcoming data events and job opportuni
