BUILD FASTER. WORK SMARTER.
Fresh from Snowflake Expedition 2026, we’re bringing the best bits to Brisbane!
Join us for a two-part afternoon of hands-on building and community networking. Come for one session or stay for both. Everyone’s welcome!
EXPEDITION BUILDER LAB [LEVEL 100]
KARSTENS BRISBANE | 1:30 PM–4:00 PM
Most teams have the data they need. It’s just scattered across systems that don’t always agree with each other, so getting a straight answer takes longer than it should.
In this hands-on lab, you’ll use CoCo, Snowflake’s AI coding agent, to bring raw data into Snowflake and shape it into a clean, trusted foundation simply by describing what you want in natural language. You’ll then connect that foundation to Snowflake CoWork, so anyone can ask questions in everyday language and get instant answers.
Upskill for the year ahead and get hands-on building on Snowflake with our new instructor-guided workshop. You’ll also earn a digital badge upon completion.
Workshop Prerequisites:
- Bring a laptop + charger
- Familiarity with Python and SQL
- We highly recommend using a personal laptop with permissions for external installs, downloads, and GitHub repos.
Workshop seats are limited. Registrants may be waitlisted pending venue capacity.
