UBI Works — Presentation Prep for Ottawa Meetup (June 22, 2026)

Quick Recap

Ken and Liam discussed presentation preparation for the upcoming Ottawa meetup (June 24, 5:30–9 PM at Impact Hub Ottawa, 23 RSVPs). They agreed to divide the presentation: Liam handling opening and middle sections, Ken taking “lap 2.” Practice run-throughs planned for Wednesday before the event. Liam to send reminder emails and meet with Frank at 3 PM to discuss his contribution. Ken continuing slide development and visual generation. Co-work sessions planned for Thursday (Ottawa) and Friday (Liam’s location), Friday preferred due to Ken’s Ottawa concert commitments.

Key Decisions

  • Presentation division: Liam = opening + end; Ken = “lap 2” (middle section)
  • Practice run-throughs on Wednesday before event
  • Co-work Thursday in Ottawa, Friday at Liam’s location
  • Ken travels to Ottawa Wednesday morning (~4-5 hour drive)
  • Impact Hub contract executed: 5:30–9 PM, arrive 1 hour early for mingling
  • Reminder emails: Liam sends blast to Commonwealth list + Ottawa-focused email to new RSVPs; Ken sends personalized reminders

Action Items

Ken

  • Draft and send personalized reminder emails to RSVP’d attendees
  • Continue working on slides and visuals (minimalist, iterating through beats)
  • Compile shared understanding of project content while Liam is offline (4–7 PM appointment with Dom)
  • Send home address to Ken for records (note: this appears to be Liam sending address to Ken)

Liam

  • Send email blast to Commonwealth list
  • Send separate Ottawa-focused email to new RSVPs
  • Meet with Frank at 3 PM to discuss his contribution
  • Review food and drink stocks for the event
  • Review finance report from accountant
  • Practice run-throughs of talking points, make notes on presentation
  • Send home address to Ken for records

Key Discussion Points

  • Slide development: Ken iterating through beats, generating visuals; slides intended to be minimalist. Liam appreciated green homes images Ken created.
  • Event attendance: 23 RSVPs currently; concerns about getting only half that number. Reminder emails planned to boost attendance.
  • AI creative freedom: Ken reflected on having significant creative freedom working with AI tools for slide generation — expressed gratitude for opportunity many others cannot experience. Liam agreed, noting past clients wouldn’t have accepted such creative approaches.
  • Frank’s contribution: Liam to meet Frank at 3 PM to discuss his role in the presentation/event.
  • Sprint completion: The sprint will be considered complete once the meetup is held.
