How to Tell Stories That Win Clients and Investors with Lubna Forzley
2026-05-19 08:00 - 10:00 | Online event
You have a strong idea. But every time you explain it, people nod and move on. The problem is almost never the idea. It is the way the story is being told. Pitching persuades. Storytelling connects. Knowing which one to use, and when, is the skill that separates founders who close deals from those who keep refining their deck with no results. In this live session, Lubna Forzley, 2x TEDx Speaker and Founder of Stories, shares the exact framework she has used with executives at Coca-Cola, Google, and Microsoft. Register now and leave with a structure you can apply the same day.
❯ What You’ll Learn:

When to pitch and when to tell a story instead
The story structure that builds trust without losing credibility
How to use AI to build your narrative without sounding generic
The storytelling mistakes that cost founders deals with investors
How to craft a positioning statement that works across every channel

Lubna Forzley – Founder and CEO @ Stories: Lubna is a 2x TEDx Speaker, and an ICF-accredited coach who has spent 20+ years advising executives at Coca-Cola, Google, Microsoft, Johnson & Johnson, and the United Nations. She has shared stages with Steve Wozniak, hosted global roundtables with world leaders, and built an AI-powered brand tool that gives founders in 15 minutes what agencies used to charge $100,000 for. She helps founders and leaders cut through the noise, own their story, and win clients and investors before they ever open a pitch deck.

Whether you’re just getting started with AWS or already running workloads, the last thing you want is waking up to a war room!
🗓️ When: Saturday, May 16, in partnership with Tech Alley 🙌
🕚 Time: Join us at 1:15 PM for a practical session
📍 Where: Third Street Theater 814 S 3rd St, Las Vegas, NV 89101 (Free parking in the garage behind the theater) with Brian Carpio (Cloud Architect • Founder @ OutcomeOps | ex-Amazon), where we’ll break down:

Setting up basic AWS security configurations

Typed Python: Contracts That Keep Developers and AI from Guessing
2026-05-16 12:15 - 13:45 | Third Street, 814 S 3rd St, Las Vegas, 89101, Las Vegas, NV, 89101, US
This presentation shows how strong typing in Python turns implicit assumptions into explicit contracts that protect your code from both human error and AI-generated mistakes. It covers the practical value of typing in day-to-day engineering: replacing loose dictionaries with defined data types, typing classes, methods, and functions clearly, using generics to build reusable abstractions, and applying protocols to create safer interfaces around poorly typed libraries such as boto3. The session also makes the AI case directly: when your codebase has clear types and stable contracts, developers and AI tools have less room to guess, invent shapes, or misuse APIs. Strong typing improves readability, catches interface drift earlier, makes refactoring safer, and gives code generation tools much tighter boundaries to operate within. The core message is that typed Python is not just documentation or style — it is a practical safety system for modern development.

2026-05-12 08:00 - 10:00 | Online event
The gap between a good idea and a fundable startup isn’t talent. It’s knowing how to test what’s real before you invest months into what isn’t.

If you’ve been waiting for a smarter way to start, this is it.

How to use AI to stress-test a startup idea before writing a single line of code;
The prompts that replace weeks of customer and market research;
How to define your first product without a technical background or co-founder;
The most costly AI mistakes aspiring founders make and how to skip them;
How to generate real market signals from your idea in days, not months.
