Join Base44 and The AI Collective at MDC's AI Lab for an interactive workshop designed to help you start building with AI.
Most people use AI to write, research, brainstorm, summarize information, or answer questions. The next step is becoming an AI Builder, someone who can turn ideas into products, automate workflows, solve problems, and create solutions that didn't exist before.
In this hands-on workshop, you'll learn how to transform ideas into working applications using Base44, an AI-native platform that enables anyone to build software without coding.
Important Note: Attendees must bring a laptop to attend this event (and will be denied entry without one).

Your Coach
Elery Rojas, Director of University Programs and Outreach at Base44, will lead this hands-on workshop designed to help you turn ideas into real-world solutions using the power of AI and vibe coding.
In this session, participants will explore Base44, an AI-powered platform that enables anyone—regardless of technical experience—to build applications, automate workflows, create digital tools, and bring innovations to life with simple prompts and rapid iteration.
Elery will showcase what's possible with Base44 and share real-world examples and strategies for transforming challenges into functional solutions. Whether you're interested in building tools for your organization, community, business, or personal projects, you'll learn how to leverage AI to move from concept to creation faster than ever before.
By the end of the workshop, participants will have a real solution and the knowledge, inspiration, and foundation needed to keep building long after the session ends.
As always, food and drink, engaging conversation, and incredible company will all be provided!
