Natürlich sind auch alle willkommen, die sich noch in der Planungsphase ihrer Selbstständigkeit befinden! **Das erwartet dich bei unserem Meetup:** 🌟 **Paneltalk**: "Agentur aufbauen, aber wie?" Drei Perspektiven auf Wachstum, Team & Positionierung in Zeiten von KI Agentur ist nicht gleich Agentur. Und es gibt nicht den einen richtigen Weg, ein Unternehmen aufzubauen. Beim nächsten Gründerio Meetup sprechen wir mit drei Agenturinhaber:innen, die ganz unterschiedliche Wege gegangen sind. Im Panel geht es um: • Wie und wann der Schritt vom Freelancer zur Agentur sinnvoll ist • Was sich verändert, wenn plötzlich ein Team da ist • Welche Strukturen und Systeme beim Wachstum wirklich helfen • Wie sich Agenturen heute in Zeiten von KI positionieren • Und warum nicht jeder skalieren *muss*, aber jede:r bewusst entscheiden sollte 🎤 **Mit dabei sind:** **Johanna Lederer (Studio Ardē)** Vom Freelancer-Start zur eigenen Agentur **Mathias Böhm (Artline Design)** Einblicke in den Aufbau und die Führung eines größeren Teams sowie die Herausforderungen, die mit Wachstum kommen. **Lauren Klocker (Boxquadrat)** Ein Co-Founder-Setup mit eigener Dynamik Im Anschluss gibt es Raum für Fragen, Diskussionen und Networking in entspannter Atmosphäre. 🤝 **Austausch auf Augenhöhe:** In einer entspannten Atmosphäre kannst du dich mit Gleichgesinnten vernetzen, Ideen austauschen und von den Erfahrungen anderer profitieren. 🍹 **Gechillte Atmosphäre:** Uns ist wichtig, dass du dich wohlfühlst und Spaß hast. Wenn sich daraus ein neuer Geschäftskontakt oder eine Zusammenarbeit entwickelt – umso besser! 🚀 **Unser Ziel:** Wir möchten dir nicht nur die Möglichkeit bieten, neue Leute kennenzulernen und echte Verbindungen zu schaffen, sondern dir auch praktische Werkzeuge an die Hand geben, die deinen unternehmerischen Alltag erleichtern und dein Business optimieren. Wir freuen uns darauf, dich bei unserem nächsten Treffen in Wien willkommen zu heißen.

Here’s what awaits you at our meet-up: 🌟 **Panel Discussion (in German!): “Building an Agency — But How?”** Three Perspectives on Growth, Team, and Positioning in the Age of AI Not all agencies are created equal. And there’s no single right way to build a business. At the next Gründerio Meetup, we’ll be talking with three agency owners who have taken very different paths. The panel will cover: • How and when it makes sense to make the leap from freelancer to agency • What changes when you suddenly have a team • Which structures and systems really help with growth • How agencies position themselves today in the age of AI • And why not everyone has to scale—but everyone should make a conscious decision 🎤 Joining us are: Johanna Lederer (Studio Ardē) From freelance beginnings to her own agency Mathias Böhm (Artline Design) Insights into building and leading a larger team, as well as the challenges that come with growth. Lauren Klocker (Boxquadrat) A co-founder setup with its own dynamic Afterward, there will be time for questions, discussions, and networking in a relaxed atmosphere. 🤝 **Exchange:** Connect with like-minded people in a relaxed atmosphere, exchange ideas, and learn from the experiences of others. 🍹 **Chilled Atmosphere:** We want you to feel comfortable and enjoy yourself. If this leads to a new business connection or collaboration – even better! 🚀 **Our Goal:** Not only do we aim to help you meet new people and build meaningful connections, but we also want to provide you with practical tools to simplify your entrepreneurial journey and optimize your business. We’re excited to welcome you to our next event in Vienna.

After **"winter is coming"** we finally can say **"spring is coming"** to Vienna! As we had the AWSome GameDay Europe in March, we're now coming back to our **regular agenda**! We're visiting The Atelier at **Impact Hub Vienna** this time, thankfully to the sponsor **Bytesource**! *** 📍 **Location** The Atelier Impact Hub Vienna [Lindengasse 56, 1070 Wien](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x476d078cbc5cf79b:0x3e9197850789a772?sa=X&ved=1t:8290&ictx=111) 🕒 **When** **April 22th 2026** Doors open at 17:00 for networking, food & drinks. Talks start at 18:00. *** 🗓️ **Agenda** * **17:00 - 18:00:** Entry & Networking * **18:00 - 18:05:** Welcome and Introduction AWS Community Vienna * **18:05 - 18:10:** Welcome and Introduction to the sponsors (**Bytesource**) * **18:10 - 19:00:** **"Sales Copilot: Turn complex technical inquiries into clear, accurate offers in minutes, not hours!"** * **19:00 - 19:20:** Networking break * **19:20 - 20:00:** **"Beyond Vibe Coding"** * **20:00 – Open End:** Networking **"Sales Copilot: Turn complex technical inquiries into clear, accurate offers in minutes, not hours!"** *Speaker:* **Alexander Matev**, CISO at Bytesource *About the talk:* Sales CoPilot as a solution that helps teams turn complex technical customer inquiries into clear, accurate quotations much faster, reducing turnaround from hours to minutes. The business problem: technical sales requests are slow, difficult, and error-prone when handled manually. The Solution: Our Sales CoPilot interprets complex requirements, works with documentation and technical data, and supports offer preparation. Technology foundation: strong emphasis on AWS as the enabler, plus AI/LLM-driven processing. Architecture choice: a set of core AWS services to deliver both the user-facing application and the AI-powered data processing pipeline. Amazon S3 stores uploaded product datasheets and hosts the frontend assets, while Amazon CloudFront accelerates and securely delivers the web interface to users. Incoming application traffic is routed through an Application Load Balancer (ALB) to containerized services running on Amazon ECS, which handle both backend business logic and document ingestion tasks. For AI capabilities, Amazon Bedrock is used in two places: to extract and transform structured information from PDF datasheets, and to power the agentic logic behind the application. Persistent structured data is stored in Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL, which supports read/write operations from the backend. Together, these AWS services provide a scalable, cloud-native architecture for hosting, processing, AI enrichment, and application delivery. ### **"Beyond Vibe Coding"** *Speaker:* **Sergio Lopez-Gehler**, Solutions Architect @ AWS AI agents are changing how engineers write, test, and ship code. This talk explores what agentic coding looks like in practice — the workflow, the tradeoffs, and the tools that make it work. We'll cover how to collaborate effectively with AI agents: prompting, reviewing, iterating, and knowing when to take over. We'll look at what changes when development gets significantly faster — testing strategies, CI/CD pipelines, and team coordination all need to keep up. Then we'll introduce Kiro, an agentic IDE that uses spec-driven development, steering rules, and hooks to let engineers define how the agent operates within their codebase. We'll also look at AWS DevOps Agent — an autonomous operations teammate that correlates metrics, logs, and deployment history to investigate incidents and identify root causes before you even open your laptop. *** 💛 **Sponsors:** * **Bytesource** - [https://bytesource.net/de/](https://bytesource.net/de/) *** 📌 **RSVP now** and invite your colleagues to celebrate, learn, and connect with the AWS community at **Impact Hub Vienna**!

Expect a technical tour of visualisation tools for multivariate and high-dimensional data in R with practical examples! **ℹ️ Abstract** Statistical graphics are central to exploring and modeling complex data. As dimensionality increases, uncovering structure and dependencies becomes more challenging. This presentation gives an overview of practical tools for visualizing multivariate data, from strategic use of scatterplots and scatterplot matrices to linear and nonlinear projection methods. Special emphasis will be placed on tour methods—animated sequences of linear projections—that reveal clustering, outliers, and nonlinear relationships. All graphics will be demonstrated in R, with code to reproduce the results. **🗺️ Location** Seminarraum 16 3rd floor Oskar-Morgenstern-Platz 1, 1090 Vienna Use this [floor plan](https://event.univie.ac.at/fileadmin/user_upload/d_event/Dokumente/Raummanagement/PLAENE_NEU/Plaene_OMP/UEbersichtsplaene/01__3OG_Uebersicht.pdf) to help locate the room.

Session Abstract ### Data Cleansing using Data Bricks Machine Learning is highly dependent on adequate data. Not only does quantity matter, but more importantly quality. In this session we’ll cover how to build a custom automated process using Data Bricks. This will provide methods for cleaning data in a data lake using functions in Azure. \*Please note, that we will be using Microsoft Teams for the online portion of this meeting. You may want to join a few minutes early to ensure you do not have any issues. If you are attending in person, there are large TVs at the office, and you do not need to bring a laptop or use Teams.

Join us for lunch and meet our very successful group. We are each others sales team...always looking for referrals for our members. If you are looking for new clients, let us help you out! Bring your business cards and brochures to share with us. We have a speaker each week so that we can learn about their business. Because we have only one member per business, we have many of the spots filled. However, we are specifically looking for an estate attorney, a handyman/electrician, and an event planner. We have referrals for you! All visitors are welcome. Any questions contact [pmarchio@farmersagent.com](mailto:pmarchio@farmersagent.com)

**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
