October 15 | 17:00 BST / 18:00 CEST / 9:00am PDT / 12:00pm EDT
Build a lightweight knowledge layer over your existing documents and SQL data using three shapes in Neo4j: a Table of Contents (Trees) for document navigation, Themes (Communities) that surface unnamed patterns, and Connections (a Semantic Layer) linking structured entities and records.

October 22 | 17:00 BST / 18:00 CEST / 9:00am PDT / 12:00pm EDT
Two technical sentences:
Run Cypher queries directly against your cloud data warehouse — Snowflake, Databricks, or Google BigQuery — using Neo4j Virtual Graph, mapping relational data into a graph model in place without moving or duplicating it.

October 29 | 17:00 GMT / 18:00 CET / 10:00am PDT / 1:00pm EDT
Build a full graph-based agent memory stack in Neo4j — hierarchical context graphs, retrieval and answer playbooks, and dynamic playbook composition — and compare how predefined workflows versus fully autonomous agents interact with that memory differently.

November 5 | 17:00 GMT / 18:00 CET / 9:00am PST / 12:00pm EST
Work hands-on against a running Neo4j Agent Memory Service (NAMS) instance to build a memory layer holding three kinds of memory in one graph: short-term conversation history, long-term entities modeled with POLE+O, and reasoning memory that captures decision traces and tool-call provenance as first-class nodes.
