**What does it mean to belong somewhere — and who gets to decide?** Agora Network and [MigAct](https://migact.net/cs/) invite you to participate in an evening of dialogue centered around **exploring the experience of migration, identity, and what it means to make a home in a place that wasn't always yours**. We'll be using the [DEMOS Dialogue](https://democracydialogues.eu/) methodology: a structured, facilitated conversation designed to move beyond debate and into genuine exchange. The DEMOS model is built on a simple but powerful idea: that people with different perspectives and lived experiences can think together — not to reach consensus, but to understand each other more honestly. **No speeches, no winning arguments. Just real conversation.** What to expect: * **A welcoming, low-pressure atmosphere open to people of migration background and local Czech residents alike** * **Facilitated small-group dialogue using the DEMOS method** * **Reflection on themes of belonging, identity, and what we share across difference** * **About 2 hours, with time to connect informally afterward** Whether you were born here or arrived recently, your perspective matters. This event is for anyone willing to listen as much as they speak Space is limited to keep conversations intimate — reserve your spot below.

How do organizations in regulated industries build AI systems that are not only innovative, but also responsible, safe, and trustworthy? What can pharma teams learn from practical approaches to AI governance, and how should we evaluate generative and autonomous systems when benchmarks alone are not enough? This meetup brings together two complementary perspectives on AI in regulated environments — from building responsible, governed AI programs in pharma to designing meaningful evaluation approaches for generative and agentic systems in real-world use cases. Together, the talks will explore how to move beyond hype, understand common failure modes, and build evaluation and governance practices that reflect actual system behavior, risk, and impact. ### Why you should attend? * Practical perspectives on responsible AI, governance, and safety in pharma * A clearer understanding of why benchmarks are not enough for AI evaluation * Insight into common failure modes of generative and agentic systems * Simple frameworks and techniques for designing better evaluations * New ideas for building trustworthy AI in regulated industries ### Program: **17:30 – 18:00** Registration & coffee **18:00 – 18:10** Welcome **18:10 – 19:00** Presentations * **AI Transformation in Pharma: Building Responsible, Safe and Governed Systems,** Filip Rais * **Responsible AI and Ai Safety,** Pavel Vácha **19:00 – 19:20** Q&A / discussion **19:20 – 20:00** Networking See you there!

Do you ever feel like being gay or queer has seemingly been reduced to hook-up apps, partying and superficiality? Does spending time at gay clubs, bars and saunas leave you feeling unfulfilled or even empty? Does your inner voice tell you that there must be a more meaningful way to connect with your queer brothers? Well, there is, now. 𝙌𝙪𝙚𝙚𝙧 𝙈𝙚𝙣 𝘾𝙤𝙣𝙣𝙚𝙘𝙩: 𝙂𝙤𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝘿𝙚𝙚𝙥𝙚𝙧 is an event for men seeking to connect and build community through yoga, mindfulness, and deep & honest conversations. A phone-free, alcohol & substance-free space where you can be your authentic self, connect with like-minded men and learn tools for rebalancing your body, mind & spirit. 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙨𝙩 𝙤𝙣𝙚…. We invite you to a Two-hour evening of: ✨𝙔𝙤𝙜𝙖 ✨𝙃𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙩 𝘾𝙞𝙧𝙘𝙡𝙚 ✨𝙈𝙞𝙣𝙙𝙛𝙪𝙡𝙡𝙣𝙚𝙨𝙨 ✨𝘿𝙚𝙚𝙥 𝘾𝙤𝙣𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙨 How did we arrive here? The idea was born from a simple conversation between two strangers. Two Czech guys, Martin & Pavel, who tried to find a similar space in the Czech Republic after returning from overseas. After experiencing gay retreats focused on yoga, meditation, tantric practice, Reiki, sweat lodges, and embodiment work in Spain, Belgium, Australia, and New Zealand, it was time for the Czech Republic to shine. About your hosts: Martin is a Yoga Alliance-Certified Yoga Teacher with 200-hour training received in Belgium. He is passionate about yoga, mindfulness, and his vision is to create a healthy gay community and help reverse the ‘gay men loneliness’ epidemic. Martin pioneers DEI initiatives as Partnership Manager in his corporate role. “The inspiration came from communities I experienced during a retreat in Spain and while living in Belgium, where I saw how powerful it can be to have spaces centred around openness, authenticity, connection, and well-being. I also know similar communities exist in cities like Berlin, and I would love to help create something like that here in Prague.” Pavel has been an avid meditator for years, with experience in mindfulness, tantric meditation, Reiki, and shamanic ceremonies from his life in New Zealand and Australia. Living more consciously, connected with universal energy, while honouring the elements, the ancestors, and Pacha Mama, has been instrumental in Pavel’s growth. He continued his learning by completing Level 1 & Level 2 Reiki training earlier this year. The call to return home was answered, and now it’s time to open a space for queer men in the Czech Republic. “I received my first ‘activation’ from a Meditation Master in Vietnam in 2007, but corporate life & chasing ‘status’ got in the way. I returned to regular practice in 2021, and slowly incorporated different practices into my daily life. I credit conscious living to healing my traumas and to the success of my ongoing sobriety.” WHEN: 18 June at 8pm WHERE: Zen Den Yoga, Vinohrady, Prague 320 CZK / person Secure your spot by filling out this form: https://forms.gle/SwNW4pwHB4HLhApy6 Our first event is limited to 15 men only.

AKCE JEN PRO ZVANÉ 🤖 Ahoj, v rámci setkávání Research Tuesday jsme naplánovaly Friday special. Cítíme už nějakou dobu, že naše researchová komunita má potřebu sdílet, co nového nám do práce přinesla umělá inteligence, jak nám mění výzkum pod rukama. Chceme si povídat, chceme si navzájem sdílet, chceme vytvořit mapu, kam si zaneseme, v jakých fázích výzkumu a jakým způsobem používáme AI a co nám funguje dobře a co až tolik ne. Pracovat a sdílet se bude převážně v menších skupinkách a výstup se na konci odprezentuje ostatním. Mapu pak pravděpodobně dáme k dispozici komunitě. Pátek 19. června 9 - 12 do Slevomatu v pražském Karlíně. Setkání se koná pouze offline, a kapacita je omezená na 30 pozvaných. Žádná velká příprava netřeba, jen teď dávej víc pozor, kdy a jak v rámci výzkumného workflow používáš AI a jak ti to funguje, ať se o to můžeš podělit s ostatními. **🕒 Agenda:** * **08:30 AM** – Otevření dveří & ranní networking * **9:00 AM** Workshop * **12:00 PM** – Závěr & možný společný oběd **🧸 Hlídání dětí na vyžádání:** Research Tuesday stavíme na tom, že profesní rozvoj má být přístupný všem. Chceme podpořit i rodiče malých dětí, aby mohli zůstat v kontaktu s oborem a potkávat se bez zbytečných překážek. **Máte zájem o hlídání?** Rádi ho na místě zajistíme, ale potřebujeme vědět, jestli o něj bude zájem. Dejte nám vědět v komentářích nejpozději do pondělí 15.6. do 8:00, jestli službu využijete a pro kolik dětí. Podle toho rozhodneme, jestli ji zajistíme. **Rezervace:** Zarezervuj si místo včas. Pokud se ti plány změní, prosíme, uvolni místo ostatním. **Těšíme se na známé tváře i nové účastníky!** Běla, Ivana, Lucie

Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs. In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling. The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options. **YouTube Link** TBD

Over a billion documents processed. Millions of Veterans impacted. Hundreds of thousands of employee hours saved. Faster decisions. Greater accuracy. More benefits in the hands of our disabled Veterans. We created Smart Search, the world’s largest consumer of Amazon Textract, right when GenAI began reshaping what’s possible. Since then, we’ve built a suite of AI‑driven solutions that transform this data into real, measurable outcomes—accelerating benefits decisions for our Nation’s Veterans. Join us for a focused conversation on how an outcome‑driven approach to AI is helping us boost accuracy, streamline workflows, and deliver faster results for those who have served.
