About us
A monthly meetup in Basel for people building real things.
No slides. No pitches. No "thought leadership." Bring something you're actually working on - code, a product, a problem you're stuck on - and show it.
Each session: short, hands-on demos from members, plus open time to dig into each other's work.
What a good demo looks like:
- Show, don't describe. Open your laptop, your spreadsheet, your prototype, your broken thing. No slide decks allowed (one architecture diagram max if you really need it).
- Talk about the messy parts. Tradeoffs, failures, the thing you can't figure out. That's where everyone learns.
- Teach the room, don't pitch the room. We're peers, not prospects.
✅ Welcome: Developers, vibe coders, designers, and founders shipping real things. Non-technical people running tech-dependent businesses with real problems to dig into.
🚫 Not a fit: Recruiters, consultants looking for clients, marketers or people who just want to get a general overview
Entry: tell us what you're working on when you sign up.

[Deep Dive] AI Builders Workshop: 1-Day Hands-on Vibe Coding (Genesis Edition)
Startup Academy, Picassoplatz 4, 4052 Basel, CHNote: This is a focused, full-day paid masterclass separate from our usual evening meetups, hosted at Startup Academy Basel.
Hey Builders,
For those looking to go deep into intent-first development, we are running a hands-on, one-day intensive workshop. If you want to build a real full-stack app using AI and European sovereign infrastructure but don't want to hire a CHF 15,000 agency, this is for you. No traditional coding experience is required.
What we are doing: We are skipping the slide decks. You’ll be vibe coding alongside the engineers who built Maravilla Cloud. You'll use production building blocks (real-time channels, document DBs, auth, storage) to ship an actual, functioning app (like a custom internal tool, workflow automation, or client portal) by 17:00.
The Schedule:- 09:00 – Welcome, coffee, & setup
- 09:30 – Build Session I: From idea to V1
- 12:30 – Lunch & Networking
- 13:30 – Build Session II: Connect data, polish, & ship
- 16:00 – Show & Tell (The Basel Builders way!)
- 16:45 – Wrap-up & Apéro
Coaches:
- Şenol Taş: Founder of Maravilla Labs
- Markus Thinnes: Founder of Jelia GmbH & Mentor at Startup Academy Basel
Tickets & Registration: Space is limited. Every ticket includes one full year of free personal access to Maravilla Cloud so you can keep building.
