**Kako Gradska uprava može poboljšati život građanima uz pomoć umjetne inteligencije (AI)?** Koristi li se AI u svakodnevnom radu održavanja sigurnosti u prometu i održavanju infrastrukture? Kako koristiti AI tehnologiju u suradnji sa ostalim gradovima, ali i EU zemljama i tvrtkama? **Zoran Cetinjanin**, **Mario Novosel** i **Marino Ivasić** iz Gradske uprave Grada Karlovca, pokušat će ukratko prikazati rješenja koja se koriste kako bi svima nama podigla kvalitetu, a uz pomoć najnovije tehnologije. Zoran i Mario kao IT-evci sa više od 20 godina rada u Upravi (Katica za sve i oni koji odrađuju sve AjTi probleme u Upravi) stvorili su image Grada Karlovca kao jednog od najinovativnijih „SMART“ gradova u HR. Kako i kojim tehnologijama - pokušat će prezentirati dio rješenja. Marino koji upravlja prometom u našem gradu (ali uz pomoć najnovijih tehnoloških rješenja) pokušat će vam dočarati taj „underground“ svijet da prikaže koliko mu ta tehnologija pomaže da rješava svakodnevne probleme, ali i djeluje proaktivno. Prezentacija ima cilj da potakne ostale na razvoj različitih rješenja kako bi jednog dana imali naš **#KaFrameWork** za AI. Svi ste pozvani da sa svojim idejama, pomognete u daljnjem razvoju, a interesantno će biti čuti i na koji način razvijamo suradnju sa ostalim članicama EU.

**The Behavior Gap: Where Products Win or Lose** Teams today have more data than ever, and yet many still struggle to understand why customers adopt, engage with, or abandon their products. Teams sprint, ship faster, and chase more signals… all while metrics stall and confidence drops. The missing piece isn’t more data. It’s often the behavioral insight between the metrics, explaining why the numbers move in the first place. Dashboards can tell you what customers did, but understanding why they did it (and how to influence what they do next) requires a deeper blend of insights. This session is about closing that gap. Drawing from real-world experience designing and scaling products as [ZoCo Design](https://zocodesign.com/)’s CEO, [Lacey](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) will share how to cut through the noise and identify the insights that actually change behavior—moving people, and moving metrics. You’ll learn: * Why understanding customer behavior is a quant and qual challenge * How to spot the signals that actually predict behavior change * Where AI accelerates insight, and where it creates distraction * How to get meaningfully closer to customers, without adding more tools This talk reframes how to evaluate performance and identify what levers actually improve it, helping your team to make smarter bets with greater confidence. Every meaningful outcome is driven by behavior change. And when you know how to design for behavior, you stop guessing, and start building things that work. **About Our Speaker** [Lacey Picazo](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) is the Founder and CEO of ZoCo, a healthcare product studio that turns complex, high-stakes ideas into products that drive real-world adoption. She partners with healthcare organizations to uncover critical care delivery insights, focus product strategy through behavior design, and build solutions that patients and providers actually use.

We meet to learn and practice American Sign Language and to grow our familiarity with Deaf culture. Facilitated by hearing folks (with a connection to a professional interpreter) using Deaf-created content. People of all ASL skill levels are welcome! As we learn, we hope to connect more with the Deaf community in Central Ohio. Join us as you're able! Come regularly or just once - whatever you're looking for! Each meetup will explore different topics related to ASL/Deaf culture, and will feature time to practice conversation with one another. Just bring yourself and a willingness to learn!
