The Build Lab

15:00Lisboa

Build your best app yet! An event happening at the same time in Porto, Lisbon and the Algarve: 📍Porto: TBD 📍Lisbon: TBD 📍Algarve: TBD Think you can't build your product because you can't code? That's almost never the real problem. The real problem is starting. It's knowing exactly what you're building before you write a single prompt. This session starts with Madalena Costa's groundwork: what to decide and prepare before development begins. Then you spend the rest of the afternoon actually building your product with AI alongside others, with support in the room. Never used AI or written a line of code? Perfect, this can be your first time. Just show up! Who's This For A woman founder building your product with AI A woman founder who wants to start building with AI A former founder looking for your next project Someone who wants to start a startup Someone with an idea that wants to build What We'll Cover The real first step of creating a digital product (spoiler: it's not the code) What to prepare and decide before development starts The structure your documentation needs for vibe coding to work A practical pre-build checklist and how it changes when you vibe code What to Expect 90 minutes of real build time Local hosts in all cities helping you live One session connecting Porto, Lisbon and Algarve from start to finish A room full of founders working through the same problems at the same time Something built by the end of the afternoon, however rough it looks (rough counts!!)

20-20 - a Pecha-Kucha style event for AI Builders (members+, in-person, Lisbon)

18:30Lisboa

Twenty slides. Twenty seconds each. No pausing, no going back. Red Bridge is launching its first Pecha-Kucha style night — 20-20 — a fast-paced format built to make AI builders do the hardest thing in tech: get to the point. Each presenter takes the floor with 20 slides and 20 seconds per slide. The deck advances whether you're ready or not, so what's left is the essence of an idea — enough to spark a conversation, start a collaboration, or find the one person in the room already working on the thing you needed. Come to present, or come to watch the ideas fly. Either way, expect sharp thinking, good company, and the kind of connections that only happen at RedBridge Lisbon. Open to RedBridge Lisbon members and the wider Lisbon AI community. Hosted at AI Hub by Unicorn Factory Lisboa. 🗓️ Thursday, December 10th · 6:30–8:30pm 📍 AI Hub by Unicorn Factory Lisboa Want to present? Apply here: https://tally.so/r/68YA8O
