**Tickets / Anmeldung:** [https://www.eventbrite.de/e/100-minuten-zukunft-der-salon-der-zukunfte-beydes-tickets-1983680334279](https://www.eventbrite.de/e/100-minuten-zukunft-der-salon-der-zukunfte-beydes-tickets-1983680334279) **Salon #1 Thema: „Wie leben wir in Berlin im Jahr 2040?“** Technologische Durchbrüche, politische Verschiebungen und gesellschaftliche Dynamiken verändern unser Koordinatensystem schneller als je zuvor. Vieles wird infrage gestellt. In Zeiten tiefgreifender Transformation wächst das Bedürfnis nach Orientierung. Der Salon **„100 Minuten Zukunft“** schafft einen Raum, um Zukunft zu denken. Durchgeführt wird das Format von den beiden professionellen Futures Thinking und Innovationsentwickler:innen und Zukunftsgestaltern Elle Langer, Ferdinand Linke und Florian Huss vom Team „100Minuten Zukunft“. **100 Minuten können reichen, um den Blick auf morgen neu zu ordnen.** Das Erlebnisformat beginnt mit einem pointierten Impuls zur Methode Futures Thinking. Anschließend startet ein 100-Minuten-Zukunftssprint in einem wissenschaftlich-kreativen Prozess mit Futures Thinking. Schritt für Schritt entstehen konkrete Szenarien zu einem definierten Thema und Zukunftsjahr. Der Salon startet mit der Frage: **„Wie leben wir in Berlin im Jahr 2040?“** • Wie leben Menschen in diesem Szenario? • Welche politischen und wirtschaftlichen Rahmenbedingungen prägen den Alltag? • Welche Technologien spielen eine Rolle? • Welche gesellschaftlichen Dynamiken dominieren? Keine Dramatisierung, sondern analytische Klarheit. Aktuelle Entwicklungen werden eingeordnet und der Blick geweitet und wünschenswerte, realistische und dystopische Zukünfte bewusst gegenübergestellt. Was anfangs abstrakt erscheint, wird überraschend konkret. Diffuse Unsicherheiten verwandeln sich in beschreibbare Zukunftsbilder. Aus Diskussionen entstehen Handlungsoptionen. **Orientierung in unsicheren Zeiten** Der Salon vermittelt mehr als Methodenkompetenz. Er stärkt ein Zukunfts-Mindset: • Komplexität strukturiert denken • Narrative erkennen und gestalten • Risiken und Chancen systematisch abwägen • konkrete nächste Schritte ableiten Gerade in einer Zeit, in der Futures Thinking weder in Schule noch Universität selbstverständlich gelehrt wird, bietet dieses Format eine seltene Gelegenheit, Gestaltungskompetenz praktisch zu erleben. **Ein Abend wie eine kleine Heldenreise** Dieses besondere Erlebnisformat, verbindet Menschen aus Politik, Wissenschaft, Medien, Wirtschaft und engagierter Zivilgesellschaft – erfahrene Entscheider:innen und junge Zukunftsgestalter:innen. Maximal 25 Personen können teilnehmen. Die Begrenzung ermöglicht einen dynamischen und kreativen Prozess, echte Begegnung und Co-Creation zwischen Generationen und Disziplinen. **Regelmäßige Orientierung in komplexen Zeiten** Der Salon „100 Minuten Zukunft“ @BEYDES wird regelmäßig alle 2 Monate zu unterschiedlichen Themen stattfindenden. Nächster Termin 21.05.2026 17:00 – 19:30 Uhr. Das Thema findet über eine Beteiligungsumfrage im Vorfeld statt. Wer Teil dieses besonderen Formats sein möchte, sollte sich frühzeitig anmelden.

**The Data-Driven Brand: Using Analytics to Shape Perception** Can you use analytics to improve tacos? This being CBUSDAW, we think the answer is probably “yes”, but we’re not sure how to implement or test this theory. For our April meetup we’ve got Sara Kear, CMO of Condado Tacos, to investigate this delicious question. Sara will explore how she blends quantitative data and qualitative customer feedback to shape brand positioning and drive business decisions. We all know that marketing and analytics go way beyond attribution. Sara will show how Condado uses customer insights to inform product and pricing strategy. She’ll also highlight how Condado leverages customer feedback at scale to influence operational priorities, positioning marketing as the voice of the customer across the organization. In the last 12 years Condado has gone from one location in Columbus to 52 locations across 10 states, so we’re guessing there’s more to that growth than really good guac (though the guac probably helps). Ultimately, this talk focuses on the intersection of art and science—using data to inform creativity and build a brand that resonates with customers in a measurable way. **About Our Speaker** Sara Kear is Chief Marketing Officer at Condado Tacos, where she oversees brand, restaurant design, menu and pricing strategy, off-premise including catering, and customer data strategy. Since joining in 2021, she has helped grow the brand from 19 to 52 locations while building a data-driven marketing organization focused on loyalty and customer insights. Condado has since been named to the Inc. 5000, recognized as Breakout Retailer by Chain Store Age, and consistently ranked among FastCasual’s Top 100 Movers & Shakers.

Join us as we get together for an Arthouse Movie Friday event to see the A24 dark comedy /romance / psychological-thriller, THE DRAMA! The film stars Zendaya and Robert Pattinson as a happily engaged couple whose relationship is challenged when one discovers unsettling truths about the other. Here are details, a trailer and our plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: The film follows a happily engaged couple whose relationship is put to the test when an unexpected turn sends their wedding week off the rails. The film comes from A24, is written/directed by Kristoffer Borgli stars Zendaya, Robert Pattinson, Mamoudou Athie, Alana Haim, Hailey Gates and Zoë Winters. QUICK WORD OF WARNING: The film hasn’t screened for critics yet and most of the details are being kept tightly under wraps. But, early buzz (possibly promotional) says the film is a brilliant psychological thriller/romance but also provocative, twisty and some contains occasional uncomfortable viewing! I love the cast and trailer, so look forward to seeing for ourselves! ZENDAYA-PATTINSON TRIFECTA CHALLENGE: Robert Pattinson and Zendaya will star in THREE movies together this year, including THE DRAMA, Christopher Nolan’s THE ODYSSEY this Summer and Denis Villeneuve’s DUNE: PART THREE at Christmas!

**⚔️ Introduction to Wargaming & Painting Miniature Soldiers at The Arcane Foundry ⚔️** Join me in **The War Room at [The Arcane Foundry](https://share.google/S5i6DYJnJteHWeKtd)** for a laid-back evening of hobby talk and tabletop fun! For just **$25**, you’ll get a **3D-printed regiment of 20 high quality resin models** of your choice to paint — a **$40-70 value!** Bring your creativity, relax, and let’s make something awesome together. This is a limited time promotional offer. All regiments are made to order and require **4-5 hours of production time**, so please give me at least a **5 day notice**, so I can have them ready for you! All miniatures are printed with a commercial license. **Choose one from Below:** * 20 Empire Soldiers * 20 Dwarf Warriors * 20 Elf Spearmen Step into a world where strategy meets artistry — and where every painted figure tells a story of battle, honor, and imagination. Join **Daclaud** at **The Arcane Foundry** for an evening that introduces newcomers and enthusiasts alike to the timeless craft of **tabletop wargaming** and **miniature painting**. My own journey began with a fascination for fantasy — knights in armor, grim and hardened warriors, and monstrous creatures locked in epic battle. That passion led me to **Dungeons & Dragons**, where I painted my first **Basic Heroes set** and felt the spark that comes from bringing a character to life in miniature form. Not long after, I discovered **Warhammer Fantasy** and **Warhammer 40,000**, and I was hooked. The vision of vast armies clashing across the table — each unit meticulously painted, each story unfolding through dice and imagination — became my creative obsession. During this event, we’ll explore the **origins of wargaming**, from its early military simulations to the richly detailed worlds of modern tabletop battle systems. You’ll learn how to **build and customize your own armies**, paint your first figures, and experience the joy of turning strategy and storytelling into a hands-on art form. Whether you’re drawn by the lore, the hobby, or the thrill of commanding miniature legions, this introduction will open the gates to a world that has captivated hobbyists for generations. **🎨 RSVP today and join us at The Arcane Foundry — where every brushstroke and battle tells a story.**

The Fellowship of the Star Schema: Transforming OLTP Data for Power BI One does not simply build reports on OLTP data. Join us on an epic journey from the depths of raw, normalized tables to the shining halls of a well-modeled star schema fit for Power BI greatness. We will demystify the differences between OLTP and OLAP, walk through star schema vs snowflake (and why Power BI has a clear favorite), and show you the compression differences between normalized and columnar storage that will make you never look at an OLTP model the same way again. We will cover the different types of dimensions, when to use them, and how to handle Slowly Changing Dimensions without losing your mind. You will leave knowing exactly how to identify a bad model, how to convert OLTP data into a clean star schema, and how to forge relationships that rule them all. Whether you are a data wizard, a curious hobbit, or somewhere in between, your models will never be the same.

Join us as we get together for a Discount Tuesday / Choose Your Movie event to see your choice of two great films! Option 1 is the dark comedy/drama based on a true story TOW! The film stars Rose Byrne as a homeless Seattle woman how battles a towing company. Option 2 is the off-the-rails, over-the-top, action-comedy-horror THEY WILL KILL YOU! The film stars Zazie Beetz as a woman who answers a help wanted ad to be a housekeeper in a mysterious New York City high-rise not knowing its mysterious past! Here are details, trailers and our plan for this event: TOW: This dark comedy/drama is based on a true story and follows a homeless Seattle woman who fights her way out of "tow-company hell" to reclaim the car that had held her life together after receiving a tow bill for $21,634. The film stars Rose Byrne, Ariana DeBose, Demi Lovato, Octavia Spencer, Dominic Sessa, Elsie Fisher and Simon Rex! The film premiered to solid reviews at last year’s Tribeca Film Festival where critics declared, “TOW is a winner!” It’s “a story of perseverance, heart, and real fight, the kind of small human story we see less frequently these days, but need now more than ever.” TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qdkpcsuPAhA THEY WILL KILL YOU: A woman takes a job as a housekeeper in a NYC high-rise, unaware of the building's history of disappearances. She soon realizes the community is shrouded in mystery. The film is directed by Kirill Sokolov and Zadie Beetz, Myha'la, Paterson Joseph, Tom Felton, Heather Graham, and Patricia Arquette. The film is being released immediately following its premiere at this year’s SXSW Festival earlier this month. Early reviews say it’s “an adrenaline rush of action-packed fights, tons of blood and gore and plenty of laugh-out-loud moments” and a movie that’s “unafraid to march to its own campy, violent, and clever little drummer!” TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYqQPiXpi4w PLAN: Not exactly a “Choose Your Movie” event, more like an early show and a late one (or both if you’re feeling sparky)! \* If you’d like to see TOW, please purchase your ticket for the 5:00pm showing and meet in the upstairs lobby between 4:40 and 4:50pm! \* If you plan to see THEY WILL KILL YOU, please purchase your ticket for the 7:45pm showing and meet in the upstairs lobby between 7:25 and 7:35pm! \* Tickets for both films on sale now and advance purchase is advised! Tickets just $5.00 ($6.50 after online fees when purchased via the GFC website). Once you have yours, please list your movie of choice and seat number in the Comments section of this event. \* Also, as a reminder, close, convenient parking available in the nearby garage (Between 9th and 11th, just off High) and just $2 when you have your ticket validated at the theater! Look forward to seeing you there, Dan
