From Tech In Berlin Meetup
4.4

This meetup hosted by **Venture Cafe Berlin** focuses on **Hiring/Job Hunting**. Job hunting in 2026 is brutal. Employers are chasing a "perfect candidate" that doesn't exist, while talented professionals who've spent years mastering their craft are suddenly expected to become expert job seekers overnight. It's a broken system. This workshop is for people who are done sending applications into the void and are ready to play the game strategically, without letting the process shake their confidence. Join **founders, investors, ecosystem builders, and curious minds** for open conversations, practical insights, and meaningful connections. **What to expect:** * **Info & Demo Tables (5:00–8:00 PM):** Discover startups, technologies, and ecosystem initiatives. * **Mentor Hours:** Guidance on public affairs, regulation, and government relations for startups. * **Workshops & Talks:** * *From Campus to Corporate: A Student Team's Take on Redesigning Employee Experience* * Audacity Builds Freedom * 90-Days to Hired: Smarter Job Hunting in Europe * **Networking & Beats:** Meet fellow innovators, exchange ideas, and connect in a relaxed atmosphere. Come learn, share, and connect with the **Berlin tech community**.

Planning Parental Leave in Tech

Planning Parental Leave in Tech

Tue, May 26, 4:30 PM
From Empowered in Tech
4.7

Planning to go on parental leave while working in tech? You probably have a ton of questions, and we will do our best to get you answers. Whether you're expecting, currently on leave, planning ahead or wanting to support your teammates, navigating parental leave comes with a lot of new challenges. Technical careers require us to stay up to date and living in Germany adds another layer of bureaucratic hurdles to the mix. To help you feel more prepared, we have selected panelists who've been through it and will share their experiences openly: what worked, what surprised them, and what they wish they'd known. We'll cover the practical and bureaucratic side, the career side, and we'll reserve time for your questions. **🗓️ Agenda** 6:30 Arrival and networking 7:30 Welcome and Intro 7:40 Panel Discussion: Planning Parental Leave in Tech 9:00 Event ends **Panel: Planning Parental Leave in Tech** ● **Saranya Parvathi Ganesan**, Senior Software Engineer @Immoscout24 ● **Sinny Kumari**, Associate Engineering Manager @Red Hat ● **Vanessa Ating**, Senior Frontend Engineer ● Moderated by: **Vaishali Thakkar,** Confidential Computing Expert @SUSE **🍕 Food and Drinks** There will be vegetarian and vegan food and beverages sponsored by our host Bettermile. 🗣️ **About the Panelists** **Saranya** I’m a mother to a four-year-old daughter and currently work as a Senior Software Engineer at ImmoScout24.

I’m passionate about mentoring, continuous learning, and staying hands-on with technology while building scalable and reliable systems. **Sinny** [Sinny](https://sinnykumari.wordpress.com/) is a mother to a four-year-old and an Engineering Manager at Red Hat. Prior to stepping into engineering leadership for the [DNF](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNF_(software)) team, she spent over a decade as a Software Engineer developing core OpenShift [operators](https://github.com/openshift/machine-config-operator), performing ABI analysis, and more. She is also an Open Source enthusiast and has contributed to projects such as Fedora and KDE. **Vanessa** I’m a Software Engineer with over five years of experience building scalable, accessible web applications across the full stack.

From Idea to First 10 Customers (2nd part)

Sat, May 30, 11:00 AM
From GrowFirma Community
4.5

🚀 **From Idea to First 10 Customers — Part 2** ​The journey doesn’t stop after building the idea. The real challenge begins when you need people to actually use — and pay for — what you created. ​After the great response to our first session, we’re bringing back Part 2 with deeper discussions, practical insights, and real founder experiences focused on getting traction in the early stages. ​This session is designed for founders, aspiring entrepreneurs, freelancers, and anyone interested in understanding how startups move from an idea to their first real users and customers. ​No unrealistic “growth hacks.” No theory overload. Just practical conversations around early-stage growth, validation, customer acquisition, and building momentum. *** # ​💡 What We’ll Discuss ​• How to get your first users • Finding early adopters • Mistakes founders make in the beginning • Why validation matters more than perfection • Building trust before scaling • Realistic approaches to early customer acquisition • Lessons from startup experiences *** # ​🎯 Why Join ​Because getting your first customers is often harder than building the product itself. ​This session will help you better understand: ✔ how people discover products ✔ why some ideas gain traction and others don’t ✔ what founders should focus on in the early stages *** # ​📅 Event Details ​📅 **May 30, 2026** ⏰ **13:00 – 15:30** 📍 **The Social Hub** ​See you there!
