Hey folks, Let's get together again for some drinks, brewskis and good chats! Summer has finally arrived ☀️ When: Tuesday, 28th April, 19.30 Where: BrewDog Berlin Mitte, Ackerstraße 29, 10115 Berlin Feel free to share this event with your fellow Indiehackers. Best, JP

This is an [in-person communication lab](https://www.presentation-school.com/berlin-presentation-lab) that helps professionals speak clearly and confidently under pressure using proven methods. Most people don’t struggle because they don’t practice enough. They struggle because they practice without the right principles. This session focuses on deliberate, guided practice informed by performance psychology, neuroscience, and modern communication training. **What You Will Do** * Learn one science-based communication principle that improves real-world performance. * Train that principle in structured speaking exercises designed for skill development. * Receive clear, professional feedback you can apply immediately. Practice and feedback are guided by experienced communication professionals who work with executives and senior professionals. This is not peer-to-peer feedback or open discussion. **Who Should Attend?** * Non-native English speakers * Professionals who present, lead meetings, or speak up at work * Anyone who overthinks, freezes, or loses clarity under pressure * People who want structured improvement, not just repetition No prior experience is required. **What This is NOT** * A lecture. * A motivational talk. * A public performance. * Unstructured open practice. * Peer-led feedback or opinion-based critique. **Before The Session** Before the session, participants complete a short preparation form to clarify their goals and common communication challenges. This helps ensure the practice and feedback during the lab are as relevant and effective as possible. **Optional:** Participants may submit a short video (1–2 minutes) or written questions. This is optional and used to personalise focus areas and examples during the session. No individual coaching is provided. **After the Session** Participants receive a short follow-up pack with key takeaways, practical drills, a reflection question, and guidance on next steps. **Practical Information** Language: English Duration: 2 hours Format: In-person, structured group lab Address: Chausseestraße 86, 10115 Berlin Healthy snacks and water provided. Price: €25 per session If you are looking for a professional, practical way to improve how you communicate and want to train using principles that actually lead to results, this lab is a good place to start.

✨ Let the lively discussions continue! ✨ **Join us for our 7th OKR Meetup!** We’re excited to welcome you to TAM Akademie, an inspiring location that perfectly matches what our community stands for: fresh thinking, experimentation, and meaningful exchange. 🚀 This time, we’re diving into: **“Beyond the OKR Playbook: 3 Challenges and How We Cracked Them at the TAM Akademie”** OKRs look great on paper - but in practice, they often create confusion, friction or unrealistic expectations when applied too rigidly. In this session, we’ll share insights from 4 years of working with OKRs at TAM: the myths, mistakes and tensions we’ve seen - and what actually helped. Together, we’ll explore three common OKR beliefs, challenge some “golden rules” and discuss when it makes sense to adapt the framework instead of following the textbook. Expect practical input, honest lessons learned and an open exchange with fellow practitioners. 🗓️ Agenda: 18:30 – 19:00: Arrival and Registration 19:00 – 19:15: Welcome & Opening Remarks 19:15 – 20:30: Interactive Session: Beyond the OKR Playbook: 3 Challenges and How We Cracked Them 20:30 – 21:30: Networking ⏰ Doors Open: 18:30 📍 Location: TAM Academy, [Hagelberger Str. 53/54, 10965 Berlin](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x47a84e4ee9d03035:0x3c19998b440eca7d?sa=X&ved=1t:8290&ictx=111) **Important:** Please register with your full name for smooth check-in. Photos will be taken during the event. This time we don´t have a sponsor for drinks so we are asking a minimal fee to ensure a comfortable event for everyone. If this is a barrier, feel free to reach out, we’ll find a solution together. 🚫 **No sales, no pitches, no hidden agendas:** Just honest conversations, shared learnings and real connection. See you soon, Vivien & Maxi

! All sessions in English except for 24.03, 21.04, 09.06, 28.07 & 01.09- these sessions will be in German ! Wanting to connect deeper with your partner? Looking for new ways to be intimate? Hoping to foster love, awareness, and communication in your relationship? Take some quality time away from the daily grid and explore Tantra together through embodied practice. The practice is designed to foster deeper intimacy, attunement and harmony between the two of you. Tantra invites you to allow your life force energy to flow without inhibition and to cultivate it for self-realization. Part of the practice is about inviting in more opening. Openness creates union, resistance creates separation. Deep connection, more pleasure and joy are a result of experiencing more openness. Tantra is for everyone! All couples are welcome regardless of sexual orientation and experience level. Not in a romantic relationship? Feel free to bring anyone you'd like to practice Tantra with. **What to expect:** * **Discourse, demo practice and Q&A**: learn about Tantra through discourse, ask your questions * **Tantra meditation practice**: presence, movement, sound and breath * **Sharing before and after practice**: share about your fears and desires & reflect on your experience * **Cozy studio setting**: enjoy a comfortable and intimate environment * **No partner-exchange:** practice only with your partner * **Fully clothed:** you may keep your clothes on during the entire practice **What to bring:** * Wear comfortable clothing * Water bottle to stay hydrated **Tickets:** 69€ per couple. Please purchase your ticket via [sophieheldens.com](https://www.sophieheldens.com/tickets?utm_source=meetup&utm_campaign=datenight) **Location:** Praxis Köpi Köpenicker Straße 175 10997 Berlin Kreuzberg Walk to the second courtyard and take the stairs to the front door on the left. **Please note:** Praxis Köpi is located on the 5th floor and there is no elevator available. Only book a ticket if you can walk the stairs. The benefit: a beautiful private studio with loads of natural light. **!! Please arrive 10 minutes early so we can start on time !!** Once we start the session, I can’t let you in anymore because it disturbs the class. Please do yourself and the group a favour by coming on time. Thank you! **Workshop facilitator** Hi! My name is Sophie. My passion for Tantra is rooted in a deep spiritual yearning and an inner knowing that Tantra is my path. My desire to teach Tantra has been sparked by having witnessed my own growth and healing as a result of these practices and it is inspired by a vision to create a more beautiful world. I create a space that is loving and nurturing, with a strong emphasis on ensuring that you feel save and supported. My workshops are gentle yet transformative, spiritual yet grounded and always heart-centered. I'm passionate about bridging the wisdom of ancient Tantra with modern-day practices.

Für alle ein Lernweg. Los geht's **Auf dem Weg in Leitungspositionen** können Frauen von Männern als Bedrohung wahrgenommen werden wie umgekehrt Frauen gelegentlich in Männern vor allem Kontrahenten sehen. Diese Form des „Gender trouble“ dürfte nicht zwingend originelle Lösungen für mehr Geschlechtergerechtigkeit auf Leitungsebene hervorbringen. **Was kennzeichnet die Vorurteile und Voreingenommenheiten**, die es erschweren, dass mehr Frauen in Leitungspositionen aktiv sind? Wie können Männer, die Chefs sind, die Qualitäten und Talente von Frauen besser fördern? Wann gelingt es, Kompetenzen von Frauen, die als „männlich“ gelten, leichter anzuerkennen, sowie „nicht-männliche“ Stärken wertzuschätzen? Wie können Empathie und Kooperation gestärkt werden – ohne dabei Verlustängste auszulösen? Schließlich: welche psychologischen Barrieren hindern Frauen daran, exponierte Positionen und damit Verantwortung zu übernehmen – und gegebenenfalls für eigene Anliegen streiten zu müssen? **Lassen Sie sich / lasst euch inspirieren und ermutigen.** Wir stellen ein Lernmodul zum Thema vor, das die belgische Kollegin der Projektgruppe erarbeitet hat. Dies verbinden wir mit praktischen Übungen. Und weil der Wunsch dazu geäußert wurde, werden wir noch einmal das souveräne Auftreten in Teammeetings und bei öffentlichen Wortmeldungen erproben. **Wir laden herzlich ein.** Das Treffen ist Teil des **Women Power Circle**, einer Gruppe von Frauen, die sich auf Augenhöhe begegnen, gegenseitig stärken und gemeinsam neue Wege gehen wollen. Der Kreis kommt im Rahmen des Projekts „ElevatHER – Overcoming the Gender Power Gap“ zusammen, in dem Organisationen aus fünf Ländern zusammenarbeiten.

A lunchtime conversation with the man who built the world's largest startup accelerator What separates the founders who break through from those who don't? In 2026, the answer increasingly comes down to one thing: how you wield AI. The rules of company-building are being rewritten — faster than most founders realize. AI isn't just a productivity tool anymore. It's compressing the timeline from idea to product, from product to funding, from funding to scale. The founders who understand this shift aren't working harder. They're working smarter, faster, and with leverage that simply didn't exist before. There are few people better positioned to unpack what this means for founders than Adeo Ressi. He's spent over 15 years obsessing over one question: what does it actually take to build a successful startup What You'll Learn - The AI-native founder playbook — How top founders are using AI as a co-founder - From zero to funded, faster - The rewired venture ecosystem — How AI is changing what investors look for and how capital is being deployed - Live Q&A — An open, candid conversation. Bring your hardest questions!

Nice! You are looking for real long time friendship! You might have already lived in Berlin or other big cities and experienced the "Anonymous" culture for a while. Meeting random people over and over and never see the same person again! In order to find "Real Long Term Friendship" in Berlin, do as follows: * You should not care how many people are joining this meetup. You RVSP. Even if only one person is joining. Because if everyone are waiting for everyone else to RVSP, nobody joins and nobody finds a new friend. * You do not care how many people of the opposite sex are joining. You are looking for friends. Finding the best romantic partner in the world, while avoiding not very attractive others, can be your other goal, for another time. Here we are looking for Friends. Real ones. * You are going to risk a very precious property of yours: Your time! Yes, there are thousands of opportunities in Berlin, there might be a rock concert for free, a birthday party you might miss, an important person might call you and invite you spontaneously, but you never find new friends until you decide to risk your time and meet people anyway. "I will check my calendar and get back to you" also does not work. Commit your time and spend it. Trust me, you won't go bankrupt ;-) * You are ready to use your phone as a real phone! You might have been using your phone as a tablet to visit Instagram and Facebook and watch movies. But if you want to find friends, you must know that people might take your phone number and give you theirs. That means they will Call you! And you have to pick up the phone and answer it. If you want to find new friends, you must be ready to do something really hard for the first time after years: Call people first, and if they called you: Answer your phone! * You are going to meet some people twice! That's the point of friendship. We already can experience random encounters with random people in random places one at a time. But that is not called friendship. If you want friends, you must be ready to meet the same person more than once. If you agree with above, RVSP and COME! You will meet other people who think the same way. P.S: Now that you've read all the way down to here, I suggest you [watch this animation](https://player.vimeo.com/video/547249272?h=22f3dd0f6f).
