First of all Katerina Chernevskaya, our Senior Software Architect took the stage at CollabDays Bletchley 2024 at the historical place The National Museum of Computing – Bletchley Park. She delivered an insightful session titled "Elevate Your Code: Advanced Techniques with Named Formulas & User Defined Functions in Power Apps". In this session, attendees explored the power of Named Formulas and User-Defined Functions, that can significantly change application development approach. Katerina demonstrated how these techniques enable more efficient, scalable, readable and maintainable code, making a real difference in the development process. Katerina's expertise in the field continue to inspire, helping developers push the boundaries of what's possible in Power Apps!
Secondly, Katerina Chernevskaya was honored to participate in the prestigious Bletchley Park AI User Group. This forum gathers enthusiasts and experts from the AI community to exchange innovative ideas and practices in a vibrant, collaborative environment. The group meets monthly, featuring a lineup of 4-5 distinguished speakers who inspire and educate through their experiences and insights.
This month's session was particularly electrifying the started with Will Rowe, Director at MS Talent, who shared recruitment tips. Then the stage took Rebecca Oburotha. She delved into how AI can revolutionize the development process within Power Apps, offering streamlined solutions and enhancing efficiency. Following her, Fergus Kidd, R&D Engineering Lead at Avanade, captivated the audience with a demonstration of how AI agents can communicate to resolve issues, showcasing the practical applications of AI in real-world scenarios. After a refreshing break, Umar Khan introduced the concept of human-centric design in AI implementation. His talk emphasized designing solutions that prioritize user needs, ensuring that technology serves to enhance human experiences rather than complicate them. Next, Chris Huntingford, Director at ANS Group, explored the transformative impact of the AI revolution, discussing how it reshapes our technological landscape.
The event concluded with an insightful presentation by Leon Gordon from Onix Data, who shared the latest developments and his perspectives on AI's evolving role in our lives. The Bletchley Park AI User Group meeting was not just an event, it was a fountain of inspiration and a beacon of possibilities that are shaping the future of technology. We left invigorated and more eager than ever to contribute to this dynamic field.
