βͺ Event Recap

This year the Create With Conference returned to Plexal at Here East in London to celebrate the amazing achievements, milestones, solutions and initiatives people have built with AI and NoCode tools.
​
The conference kicked off this year on Wednesday May 21st with four in-person workshops where we were joined by dozens of people looking to get hands on with the latest AI and NoCode platforms. They learned how to build mobile apps, AI agents and integrate the latest AI models into their SaaS products. A community pre-party co-hosted with Claudia Cafeo from Zapier allowed attendees to meet up the evening before the big day.

The main event was held on Thursday May 22nd where hundreds of people gathered for a packed schedule which began with a fireside chat with Jonas Templestein Founder and CEO of iterate.com, prev Monzo hosted by Charlie Ward from Ramen Club.

Attendees then joined over 20 different talks and workshops throughout the day from AI Agents to vibe coding to product demos from Bubble, Glide, Sutro, Momen, Noloco, Zapier among others - all firsthand insights from the people who actually use the tools and have gained traction with them.

The event concluded with a closing panel on the future of AI before the official afterparty thanks to Daniel and Frederic from Xano on a boat next to the canal in Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.

We were fortunate to have sunny weather on Friday for attendees to meet up around London from Borough Market (thanks to Tom Wesolowski for volunteering to host) to the Southbank Centre to catch up after the conference, have brunch and share our favourite moments.
