MEETUP: Snowflake Manchester User Group

Tuesday 21st October 2025

About

Join us at 5:30pm on the 21st October where we’ll be hosted by Data Decoded MCR for a special user group session! We’ll be at Manchester Central with food, drinks, and – of course – two Snowflake-tastic sessions!

  1. Alan Buxton, CTO @ Simfoni
    Earlier this year, Simfoni launched Virgil, the procurement Text2SQL bot powered by Snowflake Cortex and added it to their Strategic Spend Hub software app.

    Strategic Spend Hub doesn’t just identify savings opportunities—it helps you take meaningful action to optimize your spend and is now available not just as a standalone SaaS application, but also as a native app.

    But how did they do it? In this talk, Alan Buxton will guide you through the journey from idea, to keyboard, to launch day.

  2. Rebecca Jayne-Coupe, Solutions Engineer @ Snowflake
    Once you’ve been warmed up for the topic of AI, perhaps it’s time for some demos? During this session, Rebecca Jayne-Couple will be getting hands on keyboard to whiz you all through some of Snowflake’s newest AI features.
