WHAT we play. As you know, we have two events, one more for social games on Thursday and another for **strategic games** on **Monday**. Depending on what people bring, we may play brainy games, not limited to chess and classic games. So, feel free to bring other ones. And this is only indicative. Some games like Decrypto fit both events, **and if people feel like playing a social game on Monday or a more strategic one on Thursday, they are free to do so.** WHERE. Because we have many strategic players on Monday and these games take longer, we moved to a café closing much later than the previous one. CHATBOX USE. In the event chatbox, you are invited to discuss the games you bring and want to play for this session. The idea is to gather people around game tables beforehand. Of course, it's also possible to show up and arrange this after the introduction round, which starts at 7h15. HOST. If you want to become a host and have your board game event for a specific game with a small group of people or in another place, Great! Let me know, and I'll help you set up your event with this group. Hosts don't pay fees. TIMING: Because strategy games are often longer, we start at 7 pm (instead of 8 pm on Thursdays). So, those who play long games can have 3 hours and 30 minutes for their game. You can come later, but you may have to wait before joining a game. WHERE. We play upstairs. Ask which room at the bar downstairs. DRINK. You have to order a drink at the bar, pay for it, and come up with it. **PLEASE TAKE NOTE THAT, UNFORTUNATELY, THE AUTOBUS ACCEPTS CASH ONLY.** EVENT REGISTRATION. Please register to allow us adequate venue planning. IN CASE OF A WAITLIST. Please, out of respect for people on the waiting list, don't cancel later than 7 PM the day before so they can plan their evening correctly. If you are on the waiting list, please cancel your attendance if you change your mind and can no longer come. Don't hesitate to send me a message to comment or make suggestions! Take care and see you soon! Baudouin

6th April is a holiday ! So why not having a full afternoon of gaming there on that day ? If you feel likewise, then join this event! Unlike most of our events, this is a more improvised one : some attendees bring their games, and we decide on the spot what we'll play. You may also post your ideas of what you want to bring/play in the comments, to gauge interest among the participants. Outpost opens at 11:30, so you may come from that time, but you can also come a bit later if you wish. No real ending time, you may leave whenever you feel like to ! **Please RSVP to this event if you wish to come**. Do not come without having done so. It makes it easier to plan that way. Although you can arrive at any time, **please post your estimated time of arrival in the comments**. It will make it easier to organise the tables that way. **Don't forget to unsubscribe from the event if you aren't able to come.** Someone else might take your place in that case. Don't block it if you don't come.

We read for an hour and a half, then chat over a drink. This is a free activity except for the price of the drinks you're consuming.

Hello everyone, I’m a photographer and documentary filmmaker, and after many years working in this field, I’ve recently felt the need to create smaller, more personal workshops where people can really learn by doing and take time to explore their creativity. **On April 11th and 12th,** I’m organizing a 2-day mobile phone photography workshop in **Brussels, Chatelain area** from **10:30 to 15:00** each day. We’ll spend the time learning how to use our phones more intentionally — working with light, composition, framing, and understanding how to get the most out of the camera settings and retouching apps as **snapseed and lightroom.** The approach is very practical, with a mix of indoor and outdoor exercises, so you can immediately apply what you learn. Price is **180 eur** per participant for **2 days workshop** with food included, if you bring a friend or you are a student there is a **15% discount.** The group will be small **(max 6-8 people)**, which makes it easier to exchange, ask questions, and get individual feedback. It’s also meant to be a relaxed and creative experience — we’ll take breaks, have some good food, and enjoy the process of seeing things differently through the camera. If you’re curious about photography, want to improve your images, or just feel like doing something creative for a couple of days, you’re very welcome to join.

**🚀 We're thrilled to announce the next Cloud Native Meetup @ ING!** Come join us for an evening of talks, great conversations, and good food. Expect fresh insights, real-world stories, and the kind of hallway chats that spark your next big idea. **Agenda** 🕕 18\.00 — Doors open \| Food & drinks 🎤 19.00 — Welcome 🔐 19.15 — What I'll Tell My Kids About K8s Security *(Lars Lefebvre, ING)* 🚀 19.45 — K8s-wish and other LLM adventures *(Andrew Yourtchenko)* ☕ 20.15 — Break ⏳ 20.30 — Kubestronaut Panel 🤝 21.00 — Networking **Getting here** **No on site parking available**, instruction on how to get there [over here](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FYT8vBU513koHhvOyqW8tQshbzAhlzQ_/view?usp=sharing). **If coming by car, please only refer to the public car park instructions.** Access via entrance A, then follow the signs. **Sessions:** **Session 1:** **What I'll Tell My Kids About K8s Security (Lars Lefebvre, ING):** What I'll Tell My Kids About K8s Security is a creative and story-driven talk that makes Kubernetes security approachable — even for those who aren't deep in the weeds of K8s. Framed through metaphors and everyday analogies, the talk explores complex security challenges in a fun and memorable way. In the second half, I'll share the story behind an open source tool we built at ING to help teams uncover and understand real-world security issues in their clusters. *Bio:* Lars is a dedicated Cloud and Application Security Engineer with a strong background in the Cloud Native stack. He’s experienced in managing multi-cloud environments, promoting cloud-native practices, and enhancing security measures in software development lifecycles. **Session 2:** **K8s-wish and other LLM adventures (Andrew Yourtchenko)** Can we use LLMs to avoid writing YAML? This talk explores two approaches — a single-shot LLM call and a full agentic loop — using two open source projects, and what each gets right and wrong. *Bio*: After 25 years at Cisco across three lives — TAC Security, IPv6 technical marketing, and high-performance networking software — Andrew is now building open source agentic AI tools and doing occasional consulting. He is a coauthor of DHCPv6 and other RFCs, and holds 4 US patents. **Session 3: Kubestronaut Panel** *30 minutes \| Q&A* Meet a panel of Kubestronauts, some even Golden. We'll kick off with a quick intro to what a Kubestronaut (and Golden Kubestronaut) actually is, then dive straight into an interactive Q&A. Hear about their journey, what the grind really looks like, and what they'd do differently. This session is all about the conversation. *Bio Olivier Calzi (Golden Kubestronaut):* From pulling Ethernet cables as a student in France to becoming a Golden Kubestronaut, I have spent 10 years learning the stack from the ground up. Now a Cloud Native Expert with 15 CNCF certifications, I focus on SRE and infrastructure architecture. I'm a firm believer in the "work-study" model and a lifelong student who still finds engineering deeply fun. *Bio François Duthilleul (Golden Kubestronaut):* François Duthilleul is a Principal Solutions Architect at Red Hat, leading the security domain in the EMEA Telco CoE, co-author of the OpenShift Security book, and contributing to O-RAN and Sylva standardisation. The first Belgian Golden Kubestronaut and 2025 Top SSA, he brings 15+ years of network cloudification experience — and you'll find him at rock concerts, on a road bike, or talking cloud-native over a craft beer. *Bio Evelien Schellekens (Kubestronaut):* Evelien is a Principal Solutions Architect at Elastic. She enjoys sharing knowledge through public speaking and interacting with the technical community. She’s passionate about observability and open source technologies like Kubernetes and OpenTelemetry.

Après l’hiver, la peau paraît souvent plus terne, plus fatiguée et en manque d’éclat. Lors de cet atelier, nous verrons simplement pourquoi cela se produit et comment relancer naturellement la peau. Nous commencerons par une explication claire des besoins de la peau après la saison froide, puis nous passerons à une pratique guidée : • Démaquillage et nettoyage en douceur • Masque éclat (vitamine C / acides de fruits) • Application de sérum et de crème L’objectif est de vous faire ressentir les effets sur votre peau, tout en comprenant l’importance de chaque étape. Pour finaliser, je partagerai ma vision holistique de la peau : les produits sont essentiels, mais la vraie différence se joue aussi au niveau du “terrain” (stress, inflammation, équilibre global). Ce que vous allez recevoir : • Une expérience concrète et sensorielle • Une routine simple à reproduire chez vous • Une invitation à aller plus loin avec un diagnostic de peau personnalisé Rituel skincare guidée par Magali ,facialiste holistique Prix :30€ Uniquement 10 places

Every season carries its own quiet invitation - a moment to pause, to reconnect, and to rediscover what helps us feel well. At SERENDIP, we’ve always believed that wellbeing is not a destination, but a series of small, meaningful encounters. A spark of serendipity. A shift in perspective. A ritual that brings you back to yourself. Today, we’re delighted to introduce SERENDIP Seasons - our new quarterly celebration of that journey. **The very first edition, Spring Renewal, will take place on April 9th and 10th.** Over two days, we open our community to inspiration, science-based insights, sensory experiences, and the simple joy of gathering. Each edition reflects the rhythm of the season - from spring’s renewal to winter’s glow - and brings together online micro-sessions, studio offerings, special moments, and our signature Wellbeing Apero. It’s an invitation to discover something new, reconnect with what nourishes you, and step into the next season with intention. **Welcome to SERENDIP Seasons – Spring Renewal** Thursday, April 9th and Friday, April 10th A 2-day event that you can join from our home, office chair, or chez nous. Benefit from our: * **Special promotional rewards** and surprises provided to you throughout the 2-days *(and keep an eye on your inbox to discover more)* * Offer a **Gift of Renewal** to a friend - limited-edition gift certificates accompanied with a special herbal tea (when purchased or picked-up on-site) Join on-site or from your home or office chair - including our **\*NEW\* SERENDIP Sparks:** short, energizing on-line moments for daily wellbeing\*\*,\*\* our Wellbeing Apéro, and our **Nocturne Shopping moments.** **Thursday, April 9th** Treatments available from 10am to 8pm (Spa) 9am: The ***[3W’s and other micro-habits for thriving at work](http://cl.hirefrederick.com/ls/click?upn=u001.Q1lf5EIQA6nCHEhfZxq6qgnSMPyxWyfAZNXDuSmQRBHpod4rZwC-2FLf30dOE-2FGa-2BT4IyuBZqGrWbYNaZVq1ZEwP0GI7eJUK9nTnW32WKRuxpuXgmVoO-2B-2B6ebT-2FdTmK0G-2Ff2ljzCAneWz2TmsiEQIGokPIE8Y1SU2Hp9kPVnjprShtUhbyFRMhOfJh7DqsPfmLiW5XWPKisZNfZ9tDQZCPd-2BE1d-2FkQzPnIYgD2hTCIk2i-2FLPmcrlSZmZTJmcECA5s384TYNKNG2U5AvKspe6NqpVCZqCuA3iyN4u4Idzdl0-2BpLI1yF8q3TNAjFvtA7YtgXqpkwJSs-2BdYubQSolL8A0Qg-3D-3D37n-_vYFhMirxZT-2FCj-2BGpuSpsoPCpnWZJYJy-2FPY9uNa3wPReOqaCEInSKYsjad-2BXEBOBYdUiT1QMQDWb0PxxCGFokoX5UY-2FECiAT2GOeq0vVyBenwnB1d52L0ijgbX1fpTPTNfht84-2BJBWG9jr4kgtNj2ve1JMMIzbJthyDqDOFE97OylUwqCujfqxnqngllthK3MsdGlHAVgsCiws9scxjD3erUkPZwifHa0vdXPu53ZpCHi1BiH1ngJGh7smLJ9h-2FfGWARnAk7JqiD0DA5i9DBBEdL7ZOpid-2BXg8NswndLlUO8-3D)*** (15min, zoom) 9.30am: Power Yoga (Studio) 12noon: ***[Ideas for wellbeing rituals for your team](http://cl.hirefrederick.com/ls/click?upn=u001.Q1lf5EIQA6nCHEhfZxq6qgnSMPyxWyfAZNXDuSmQRBHpod4rZwC-2FLf30dOE-2FGa-2BT4IyuBZqGrWbYNaZVq1ZEwP0GI7eJUK9nTnW32WKRuxpuXgmVoO-2B-2B6ebT-2FdTmK0G-2Ff2ljzCAneWz2TmsiEQIGokPIE8Y1SU2Hp9kPVnjprShtUhbyFRMhOfJh7DqsPfmLiW5XWPKisZNfZ9tDQZCPd-2BE1d-2FkQzPnIYgD2hTCIk2i-2FLPmcrlSZmZTJmcECA5s384TYNKNG2U5AvKspe6NqpVCZqCuA3iyN4u4Idzdl0-2BpLI1yF8q3TNAjFvtA7YtgXqpkwJSs-2BdYubQSolL8A0Qg-3D-3DSx8a_vYFhMirxZT-2FCj-2BGpuSpsoPCpnWZJYJy-2FPY9uNa3wPReOqaCEInSKYsjad-2BXEBOBYdUiT1QMQDWb0PxxCGFokoX5UY-2FECiAT2GOeq0vVyBenwnB1d52L0ijgbX1fpTPTNfht84-2BJBWG9jr4kgtNj2vbBs34USiksdiT6eXeFDCk9EmRbdLnAe0p0DhT1LDZ-2BrpUj8kZk-2FdYOLBZkhtj63GuDz4fA9-2FJsFVtU0alfkHd4pxwzYpgSzMu96JrIoGNlLcUUtqA43KtHtt5sp541J0QkEnpRfdZeuqfnkViPm6O0-3D)*** (15min, zoom) 12.30pm: Pilates Barre Fusion (Studio) 5pm: ***[A glimpse into our Chief Wellbeing Officer offering](http://cl.hirefrederick.com/ls/click?upn=u001.Q1lf5EIQA6nCHEhfZxq6qgnSMPyxWyfAZNXDuSmQRBHpod4rZwC-2FLf30dOE-2FGa-2BT4IyuBZqGrWbYNaZVq1ZEwP0GI7eJUK9nTnW32WKRuxpuXgmVoO-2B-2B6ebT-2FdTmK0G-2Ff2ljzCAneWz2TmsiEQIGokPIE8Y1SU2Hp9kPVnjprShtUhbyFRMhOfJh7DqsPfmLiW5XWPKisZNfZ9tDQZCPd-2BE1d-2FkQzPnIYgD2hTCIk2i-2FLPmcrlSZmZTJmcECA5s384TYNKNG2U5AvKspe6NqpVCZqCuA3iyN4u4Idzdl0-2BpLI1yF8q3TNAjFvtA7YtgXqpkwJSs-2BdYubQSolL8A0Qg-3D-3DocD0_vYFhMirxZT-2FCj-2BGpuSpsoPCpnWZJYJy-2FPY9uNa3wPReOqaCEInSKYsjad-2BXEBOBYdUiT1QMQDWb0PxxCGFokoX5UY-2FECiAT2GOeq0vVyBenwnB1d52L0ijgbX1fpTPTNfht84-2BJBWG9jr4kgtNj2vbBRFmecZp-2Fou-2B0V3b3e2m9GaG8VW3lHLjsWMB-2FRfg8mbujTOj9Uaxa7T6dzCBhmXSYF9HwNq-2B7CFOoeIv-2Fasd29jEL9iyWMs7wCMfKYScH4oOiBYzkIqb3-2BmhGL5FvKw8M1q3oZWR8rRo045DF4RNk-3D)*** (15min, zoom) 6:00pm: Vinyasa Yoga (Studio) 6pm to 8pm: **NOCTURNE Shopping** (from your home) \- discover exclusive offers and thoughtful surprises\, including special conditions on our series\, passes\, and gift cards\. **Friday, April 10th** Treatments available from 10am to 8pm (Spa) 7.30am: Pilates (Studio) 12.00pm: Strength & Flow (Studio) 4.45pm: Prenatal Yoga (Studio) 6:30pm: **Wellbeing Apéro** (Studio) 6pm to 8pm: **NOCTURNE Candlelight Shopping** (in our Store) \- discover exclusive offers and thoughtful surprises\, including special conditions on our series\, passes\, and gift cards\.

**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.

The market changed—and most investors are still operating like it didn't. Deals that used to work don't. Buyers want different things. And a lot of what's being taught right now is outdated or just wrong. And, since 2011, it's been our job to make sure that our members are armed with the most up-to-date, real-world strategies for building wealth in Central Ohio real estate… …so our mission with this meeting (and every meeting) is to give you the no-hype, warts-and-all info you need to succeed. First, Wholesaling 101—a clear, real-world look at how wholesaling actually works today, what to pay, and how to stay out of trouble. Then, Creative Deal Autopsies—real investors breaking down real deals with real numbers, real conversations, and real outcomes. You'll also get the chance to put the presenters in the hot seat and ask any and every question you have about how they did their deals. You'll learn: 1. What wholesaling actually is 2. How to calculate real offers 3. Where deals are coming from now 4. What buyers want 5. How creative deals are structured 6. What contracts and terms are used 7. What can go wrong—and how to avoid it **Agenda:** 5:00–6:00: Free Light Dinner and Networking 6:00: Earlybird Meeting – Wholesaling 101 7:00: Buy-Sell-Trade (members only) 7:30: Creative Deal Autopsies Members: Free First-time guests: Free Non-members: $35 (or join for $30 instead) Remember, to actually reserve your seat, you have to go **[HERE](https://www.coreerocks.com/Events.aspx?ID=IN-PERSON-in-Columbus-Creative-Deal-Autopsies-Wholesaling-101-14-4-7-2026)** and register on our website!
