Y esta de regreso el Global Azure 2026, y nosotros como comunidad lo vamos a realizar en 2 días. 16 de abril presencial 17 de abril virtual Agenda 📅 Thursday, April 16, 2026 📅 🕜 7:20 pm @ Sala principal ⭐️ BUILD SCALABLE AI APPS WITH AZURE SQL DATABASE HYPERSCALE Build AI apps that run securely and scale with your needs with Azure SQL Database Hyperscale. We’ll cover native vector indexes for semantic search, read scale out for low latency RAG, and secure model invocation with Microsoft Foundry, using the model of your choice, from T SQL. Hear directly from global technology company Hexagon and investment firm BlackRock who will join us to share their experience along with best practices, demos and more! 🙂 Juan Rafael 🕜 8:10 pm @ Sala principal ⭐️ AI GOVERNANCE SIN DRAMA LOGIC APPS COMO ORQUESTADOR MULTI-MODELO CON CONTENT SAFETY Y CONTROL DE GAS Las empresas no necesitan el mejor modelo de IA — necesitan el modelo correcto, seguro y dentro del presupuesto, para cada tarea y en cada momento. En esta sesión construimos en vivo una arquitectura de prueba de concepto sobre Azure donde Logic Apps Standard actúa como orquestador inteligente entre OpenAI/GPT-4o, Claude (Anthropic) y Gemini, usando Azure AI Content Safety como capa de governance antes y después de cada llamada al modelo. Veremos cómo clasificar y rutear prompts según tipo de tarea, costo disponible y SLA; cómo detectar jailbreaks, PII y contenido dañino antes de que llegue al modelo; cómo loguear tokens, activar circuit breakers y enviar alertas de presupuesto con Azure Monitor; y cómo Azure AI Foundry encaja como sandbox de evaluación antes de promover un modelo a producción. Todo demostrado como PoC funcional: flujo real, custom connectors, respuestas comparadas en vivo. 🙂 Luis Junior Franco Ruiz \- \- \- \- \- \- \- 🙂 JUAN RAFAEL ⚡️ Solutions Architect Dynamics 365 Global MCT \| MVP Business Aplications I work as a Solutions Architect for Dynamics 365 and Power Platform at Alianza Corp.

**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge. **Abstract** GitHub Copilot is powerful, but what if you could scale from a solo AI assistant to an entire team of specialized agents working in parallel? This session introduces Squad: an open-source framework for multi-agent orchestration that lets you define teams of AI agents with specific roles, responsibilities, and expertise. We'll progress from Copilot basics to the Copilot CLI, explore how Agents add autonomy, and see how Instructions and Skills let you customize agent behavior. Then, the climax: a live demo where a Squad team of 3 agents (Lead, Developer, Tester) stands up and builds a working application in real-time, showcasing true multi-agent collaboration. Whether you're new to AI or exploring how to scale your use of Copilot, this session will show you what's possible when agents work as a team. **YouTube Link** TBD

Join us as we get together for a Discount Tuesday / Choose Your Movie event to see your choice of two great new films! Option 1 (and the one I'll be seeing) is the top-reviewed comedy-drama, THE CHRISTOPHERS! The film is set in the art world and follows the estranged children of a former artist who hire a forger. It is directed by Steven Soderberg, stars Ian McKellen and Michaela Coel and has been earning rave reviews on the indie circuit. Option 2 is the latest action-thriller starring Bob Odenkirk, NORMAL! The film follows a temporary small-town sheriff who uncovers dark mysteries after a local bank robbery. Here are descriptions, trailers and our plan for this event: THE CHRISTOPHERS: The children of a once famous artist hire a forger to complete some unfinished, long ago abandoned canvases so they'll have a better inheritance when he dies. It is directed by Steven Soderbergh and stars Ian McKellen, Michaela Coel, Jessica Gunning and James Corden. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film is earning an excellent 97% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes where critics call it a “dynamic, emotional and surprising journey” and a “compelling chamber piece that works like intellectual comfort food.” Others call the film, an “incredibly funny, comedy drama with plot reversals that make it feel like it’s on the verge of a thriller!” TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H79-EqzmdwY&t=20s NORMAL: This action-crime-thriller follows a man who comes to the sleepy town of Normal, Minnesota to serve as the temporary sheriff. But a bank robbery leads him to a criminal underground reaches throughout the entire town. The film is directed by Ben Wheatley and stars Bob Odenkirk, Henry Winkler and Lena Headey. The film comes from the same team that brought us Nobody and the John Wick series, so expect an over-the-top, action-filled thrill ride!

Bring your Raspberry Pi, Arduino, microcontroller, or any other electronic project and join fellow electronics makers for a night of creativity and collaboration! This session is open forum to share your current projects—whether complete or in progress, it’s all interesting! Whether you’re deep into embedded systems, exploring new ideas, or just getting started, you’ll find a welcoming space to collaborate, share, and get inspired. **New to electronics or curious about tinkering?** You’re absolutely welcome. If you’re a beginner and want to experiment, I’ll have a couple of starter kits available so you can try things out—whether that’s blinking your first LED, putting something on a display, or experimenting with simple sensors. No pressure and no experience required—just an interest in learning and building. While we continue to pursue a more permanent venue for this Meetup, we’ll be using public library facilities based on availability. This session will be at the Worthington Park Library in the Olentangy Meeting Room.

This is a time where players of all ages, and skill levels can gather and enjoy a nice Sunday full of Chess!

AI is changing how art is made. But when does it stop being your work and start being the machine’s? This month we're going to be doing a panel with with digital image, music, and written word artists, talking about at what point, while using AI in the creation process, does the work become not the artist creation? We encourage audience participation during this event that will be moderated by Chris Slee. Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.
