👋 Hi Data Engineering Friends,
📣 Join us at the 3rd Frankfurt Data Engineering Meetup on May 7th 🗓️

I'm thrilled to announce that by INFOMOTION will be hosting and sponsoring the event at their beautiful premises in Frankfurt's Westhafen 🎉

📍 We will meet in the Westhafen Tower starting as of 6PM and first relax with some food and drinks.

Agenda:

• 18:00 - Doors open; food & drinks
• 18:30 - Welcome talk by INFOMOTION
• 18:40 - Tina Klaus - "From Zero to Cortex: One Year into Snowflake's GenAI Evolution"

Over the last year, Snowflake has rapidly introduced and refined its GenAI feature set—collectively known as Snowflake Cortex AI. This session briefly traces the evolution of these capabilities and examines their current state, including practical steps for integration. And to save the best for last, a demo will showcase Snowflake’s hot-off-the-press GenAI functionalities, offering a glimpse into the platform’s next stage.

• 19:20 - Break 🥤
• 19:30 - Kate Nazarova - “Beyond Code: Why Communication Skills Matter In Tech?”

Technical expertise is essential in data science and engineering, but the ability to communicate effectively is what transforms complex work into real-world impact.

In this talk, we will explore why soft skills are no longer optional but critical for career growth and AI adoption. As AI-based solutions become more integrated into systems and workflows, data experts must bridge the gap between technical complexity and practical implementation.

We’ll discuss how strong communication skills can can enhance collaboration, increase your influence as an expert, and open new career opportunities.
