**This week's venue: Beer People \| Lázár utca 7\, Budapest 1065** We hold a bi-weekly workshop to encourage creative writing where we share pieces of creative writing and solicit feedback from the other attendees. Some members also use the forum to find others with whom to collaborate, edit work, and/or brainstorm plot, themes, settings, and so forth. And from time to time, we participate in competitions, recite and/or offer material for events organized by other groups. At the moment there is no prompt for this particular meetup. Instead, writers are invited to submit something they have (or are working on) or to craft a short story specifically for the event. Of course, there's no pressure to submit something. Many participants are interested in hearing ideas, questioning the authors, and examining style and technique. Often, we explore other published works as well. The submission guidelines are as follows: 1. limit the piece to 850 words (to give enough time for any other submissions being read at the event); 2. make the text available (though you can read it aloud) for the other attendees. Many authors bring a few printed copies, others post their work in the comments of the meetup; 3. have a question in mind for the group about the submission; and, 4. If offering something from a longer work, be prepared to give a little bit of background first.

We’re excited to host our next Product Meetup, co-organised by Wise & Startup Hungary. We have three insightful sessions lined up for you: ​**PM-ing a Product Nobody Asked For - András Lebó (Product Manager at Wise)** Data scientists can build anything themselves. That's what makes them the hardest users to build a platform for. They have notebooks, custom pipelines, workarounds that work. Why would they switch? András will share his learnings on PM-ing a data science platform: finding the real bottlenecks, earning trust from users who could out-engineer your solution, and measuring success when your contribution hides behind another team's objective. ​**Building the Engine Behind the Product - Balázs Dósa (Product Manager at Wise)** Ever wonder what happens when a fintech serving 19M+ customers decides to bet big on internal platforms? Join us as we pull back the curtain on: * ​The Why — What made Wise go all-in on internal platforms * ​The Hard Parts — The real challenges no one warns you about * ​The Payoff — What success actually looks like (and how we measure it) ​Whether you're building platforms, considering the investment, or just platform-curious — this one's for you. ​ **Build to Learn: How AI Tools Are Changing What's Possible for Product Managers - István Szabó (Product Manager at SAP Emarsys)** "Can we ship this table tomorrow?" Sometimes the most important product work is knowing what NOT to ship. Learn how one PM used AI tools to independently investigate a production data issue—tracing through two codebases, validating 82,000+ records across multiple customers, and delivering an evidence-based decision in half a day instead of one week. We'll walk through the real investigation, and show you a repeatable "Build to Learn" practice you can start using next week to tackle PM work that was previously impossible. ## ​Schedule: * ​18:00-18:30 - Arrival + Intro * ​18:30-19:00 - PM-ing a Product Nobody Asked For * ​19:00-19:30 - Building the Engine Behind the Product * ​19:30-20:00 - Build to Learn: How AI Tools Are Changing What's Possible for Product Managers * ​20:00-21:30 - Drinks, Pizza, Networking 🍕

**The 2026 elections are over.** The dust is settling. And 2027’s new "EU Inc." company model is staring us down. When big structural changes happen, it is completely normal to put them on the back burner. You have a business to run. But the upcoming shifts in Hungary and the EU might actually change how you operate. We are heading to KLUSTER to figure out exactly how this affects us, without the panic or the guesswork. We are splitting the night in two. First, Bence Gajdácsi (CEO of Gajdácsi Flakon Kft.) tackles the macro reality of Hungary's post-election landscape and the new EU Inc. He will break down what these legal shifts mean for your business structure so you can adapt before the rest of the market even catches on. Second, Nándor Fehér (Content Marketing Specialist) reveals the steps of building a predictable client acquisition machine with no technical skills. Even if you genuinely hate marketing, you will leave knowing how to spot the psychological hooks others and your competitors use. **The Agenda & What You'll Learn** * **17:45:** Arrive, grab a drink, and connect. * **18:10 – 18:15:** Event Kickoff. * **18:15 – 18:35: Hungary's shift & a new EU structure** * Bence breaks down two major shifts: Hungary’s new reality under a new government, and an early peek at the 2027 EU Inc. This new European company structure aims to cut bureaucracy and accelerate cross-border growth. You get an honest look at how to position your business for both. * **18:35 – 18:55: Automating Client Acquisition** * Imagine a vending machine that turns a €1 coin into a €2 coin. How many times would you use it? Nándor will show you how to build that exact machine. In marketing and sales, this is called a 'funnel', a simple sequence of steps that naturally guides a complete stranger to buying your offer. You will learn to spot competitor patterns and walk away with a clear idea of which exact system actually makes sense for your own business. * **18:55 – 20:00:** Genuine networking & conversations with quality food and drinks. * **20:00 onwards:** We head to a nearby bar as usual. **Location** We'll be hosting at the fantastic **KLUSTER Coworking** space. **Who Is This For?** This series of presentations is for freelancers, founders, and open-minded people in Budapest. As you might know, the presentations are really just an excuse to get us all in the same room. Join real conversations with a real community of curious people who are navigating the exact same challenges you are. **The Legal Bit** As usual, we’ll be taking photos and videos throughout the night. By showing up, you consent to being in them. Thanks for reading, see you on the 29th (of May)! Bence & Nándi
