Are you learning Spanish and feel that you need more conversation but are shy to speak? Here you will meet beginners and intermediate and we all will make mistakes in our Spanish communication so it will be just fun! Simply come and enjoy your conversation with the friendly broken Spanish talking group! Sometimes we will meet in some cozy café, sometimes we may go for a walk or some Spanish culture related event. ¿Estás aprendiendo español y sientes que necesitas más conversación pero te da vergüenza hablar? Aquí conocerás a principiantes e intermedios y todos cometeremos errores en nuestra communicación en español, así que será simplemente divertido. ¡Ven y disfruta de tu conversación con el grupo amigable de habla de español roto! A veces nos vemos en algún café acogedor, otras veces podemos dar un paseo o algún evento relacionado con la cultura española. For half of the Spanish here I used translator so if some of the Spanish words above sound weird to you, feel free to blame Google Translate :)

Learning Czech can be hard and demotivating, especially when studying alone. **This meetup is a shared study session where we come together to stay focused, motivated, and make progress — each in our own way.** This is a co-learning / co-studying session, not a class. There is no teacher, no lesson, and no study material provided. Everyone comes with their own resources and studies independently, in a shared environment. 🧠 **How it works** • We all bring our own material: • textbooks • homework from a Czech course • Duolingo or other apps • reading practice • vocabulary review, etc. • We mainly work individually • We are free to: • ask questions • help each other • share tips and resources • No teacher, no formal structure, no pressure 👥 **Who is it for?** • Czech learners of all levels • Non-Czech speakers (expats, internationals) • Czech native speakers are welcome if they want to help, but this is not a language exchange ⏱ **Practical info** • Location: Cafedu 12, Škrétova 490, 120 00 Praha 2 (Metro A and C, Muzeum station) • Duration: 2 hours, or less or more, as you want • Day & time: Monday, 18:00 • Group size: small group for now • Free event — please support the café by ordering a drink ☕ If you’re learning Czech and lack motivation when studying alone, come join us — let’s find it together 🙂

This meetup is for foreigners, expats, and newcomers who want to practice Czech in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. We will speak mostly in simple Czech, but beginners are welcome too. The goal is to gain confidence, improve your speaking, and meet new people. Come for conversation, tea or coffee, and a cozy community feel. It's free in community centre U Studánky 15.Praha 7 Organised by Diakonia.

We’re shipping faster than ever… and also explaining way more why things didn’t turn out quite right 😄 This Product Tank brings two sides of the same story: 👉 How to survive (and function) as a PM in AI chaos 👉 How to write specs that AI can actually build from Talks: 🎤 Jindra Regál () You Are the Ultimate Product: Creating Value in Non-Tech Fields In the AI era, everything gets built multiple times a day. So what problems are still worth solving? After working with companies like Avast, Productboard, Better Stack, Ataccama, and BottleCap AI, I found the most meaningful work came from solving small, practical problems for real people and businesses. A talk about applying product thinking outside IT companies, expanding your perspective beyond software, and learning to treat yourself, your skills, curiosity, and adaptability, as the ultimate product to manage. ⸻ 🎤 Jakub Elias (Similarweb) PMing in the AI era PMs are having an identity crisis. Designers prototype with AI. Engineers spec with AI. You hear about CEOs shipping features from the back of an Uber. So what's left for you? Turns out, still quite a lot. This talk is about what the job actually becomes when building gets cheap and deciding gets hard. How the trio holds together when everyone's on everyone else's turf. How to keep a roadmap alive when the ground shifts every few weeks. And lastly, what's now expected of a PM - being a real builder. ⸻ 🎤 Dominik Ilichman (Productboard) AI coding agents have compressed software delivery like never before — features that used to take weeks now ship in days. But here's the catch: agents don't improvise. They don't fill gaps, ask clarifying questions, or read between the lines. Ambiguity doesn't get resolved — it gets built wrong. The bottleneck has moved from engineering capacity to clarity, and the product specification is now the most critical artifact a PM produces. In this talk, Dominik explores how the PM's role is fundamentally shifting as a result. We'll look at what great AI-ready specs look like in practice: grounding them in your codebase and real customer feedback, using prototypes as a diagnostic tool, and why the spec — not the code — is becoming your team's true intellectual property. He'll also show how tools like Productboard Spark are flipping the traditional workflow — instead of the PM writing and AI helping, AI drafts and the PM steers — making it possible to go from opportunity to delivery-ready specification in a fraction of the time. If you're a PM figuring out how to stay high-leverage in the age of AI, this talk is for you.

As many of you already know [1touch.io](http://1touch.io%2A%2A/) has joined Everpure to combine its AI-driven data discovery and classification capabilities with Everpure’s global scale, accelerating the delivery of next-generation data management solutions. This meetup will be special! **Speaker:** **[Ashish Gupta](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashishgupta2025/)** - CEO and President of [1touch.io](http://1touch.io/) Ashish drives a bold vision to redefine how enterprises discover, understand, and secure sensitive data in the age of AI. A dynamic and highly regarded technology leader, he brings more than two decades of experience scaling high-growth companies across cybersecurity, enterprise software, and data infrastructure. Prior to joining [1touch.io](http://1touch.io/), Ashish served as CEO of Bugcrowd, where he accelerated the company’s growth, strengthened its market position, and expanded its platform to meet the evolving demands of modern security teams. His earlier leadership roles at global technology companies including Microsoft, Infoblox, Genesys, Actian, and Vidyo reflect a consistent track record of building innovative products, leading high-performing teams, and delivering impactful go-to-market strategies. He now joins Everpure as the General Manager of Data Management. **Talk:** Ashish will talk about why, in today’s AI world, the quality and structure of your data directly impact how well your models actually perform, and why many organizations are still limited by the way their data is set up. He’ll break down why traditional systems fall short and introduce knowledge graphs as a critical foundation for modern AI - connecting data through relationships, not just storing it in isolated tables. Instead of fragmented datasets, you get a connected view: customers linked to purchases, products tied to categories, and patterns that AI can actually understand and act on. You’ll see how this approach brings real-world context into your data, enabling smarter use cases like better recommendations, stronger fraud detection, and more meaningful insights. Ashish will also explain how adding a semantic layer transforms raw data into actionable intelligence, helping AI systems make more accurate predictions by understanding how things relate, not just what they are. If you're working on AI (or planning to) this session will show you why this isn’t just an upgrade, it’s the foundation for making AI actually work. **Time Agenda:** 17:30–18:00 – Doors open and registration with snacks and beer 18:00–19:00 – Talk 19:00–20:00 – Networking time 20:00 – Doors close

**🔥 TechTalk #5** Každá generace má svůj „konec světa“. Někdy to byla jaderná válka. Někdy internet. **Dnes je to AI.** Jedni říkají, že zachrání svět. Druzí, že vezme práci a zničí IT. Realita bývá vždycky někde mezi. Proto tentokrát nechceme keynote ani marketing. Chceme otevřenou technickou debatu o tom, co AI skutečně dělá s vývojem, architekturou a odpovědností za software. **🔥PANELOVÍ HOSTÉ NA ROŠTU:** **🗣️ #1 - [Jan Sládek](https://www.linkedin.com/in/honzasladek/) (CEO [contember](https://www.contember.com/))** **🗣️ #2 - [Michael Žabka](https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-zabka) (CTO [signageOS](https://www.signageos.io/))** 🗣️ **#3 - [Miloš Čermák](https://x.com/cermak) (novinář v [jednoprocento](https://www.jednoprocento.cz/))** **TÉMATA Z APOKALYPTICKÉ KUCHYNĚ:** 🔥 Budeme **rozumět kódu**, který AI generuje? 🔥 Jak budeme dělat code review něčemu, čemu **nikdo nerozumí**? 🔥 Je **halucinace** stále téma nebo pomalu **zaniká**? 🔥 Security, agent **prompt injection**, úniky kódu a porušování **vlastnického práva**. 🔥 Dříve jsme byli **placení za psaní** kódu; teď jsme **placení za čtení** a kontrolu. 🔥 **Junioři** se nemohou **nic naučit**. 🔥 Anthropic si může napsat **všechen software světa** sám! 🔥 Explozivní růst **technického dluhu** maskovaný produktivitou. 🔥 Tiché **selhávání AI projektů**, o kterých se **veřejně nemluví**. **Podíváme se na to, co dnes AI skutečně dělá s vývojem** – od generování kódu, testů a návrhů architektury přes explozivní růst objemu kódu, kterému už nikdo pořádně nerozumí, až po nový typ technického dluhu maskovaný produktivitou. **Nebudeme řešit, jestli nám AI vezme práci.

How are community builders actually using AI in their day-to-day work—beyond the hype and into real workflows? ​Join us for a Community Chatter focused on practical AI tools and approaches that help teams move faster, support their people better, and rethink how communities grow. This session brings together speakers who have built and deployed their own AI-powered solutions—from editorial coaching agents and community automation stacks to internal knowledge assistants employees actually trust. ​You’ll hear how AI is being used to: * ​turn rough ideas into publishable content without bottlenecks * ​better understand and manage growing communities * ​create reliable, accessible knowledge systems inside organizations ​**Speakers & Talks** ​[Jan Meissne](https://www.linkedin.com/in/necasjiri/?utm_source=luma)[r](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jan-meissner/?utm_source=luma) *Coaching, Not Gatekeeping: Building an AI Editorial Agent for Our R&D Blog* The more AI handles the routine, the more the human stuff matters. This talk is a small story inside that bigger one. A year ago, this would have been a favour I'd ask a senior engineer for - and then keep bothering them about every time something broke. Instead, I built it myself: an AI-powered editorial coach that helps our engineers, PMs and designers turn rough ideas into publishable blog posts. Azure Functions, React, Claude. Things I'd nodded along to at conferences for years and never expected to actually touch. I'll share how it was structured, tuned, and what it changed about how people write and publish. Although I hit a token limit in Claude Code halfway through. It's in production anyway. ​[Láďa Vašek](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ladislav-vasek/?locale=en&utm_source=luma) *From Chat to Code: How We Run a 500-Member Community with AI (Without Being a Developer)* A practical, no-code journey through building and running a community with AI tools. Láďa will walk through his stack and share a surprising insight: not all members matter equally—and AI can help you figure out who actually does. ​[Jirka Nečas](https://www.linkedin.com/in/necasjiri/?utm_source=luma) *Good Input Means Good Output: How We Built an AI Agent Employees Actually Trust* A behind-the-scenes look at building an internal AI assistant that employees actually use. Jirka will show how leveraging existing data, analyzing real employee questions, and embracing imperfect systems can lead to a reliable, everyday knowledge tool. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- ​This event is organized for the Czech community of community builders, especially those working with engineering and tech teams—but everyone curious about practical AI in community and team enablement is welcome.

Moderní automatizační nástroje dnes pomáhají firmám napříč odvětvími — od technologických společností přes výrobní firmy až po právní nebo finanční služby. Umožňují propojovat systémy, které spolu dříve nekomunikovaly, automaticky předávat informace mezi procesy a nahrazovat ruční kroky plynulými workflow, která šetří čas i chybovost. Na tomto meetupu se podíváme na reálné příklady automatizací postavených na n8n — od konkrétních use cases až po funkční workflow, která můžete využít ve vlastní firmě. Nečekejte teoretické prezentace. Každá přednáška ukáže praktické scénáře z různých oblastí byznysu a vysvětlí, jak automatizace vznikla, co řeší a jaké má dopady. ### 📅 Základní informace **Datum:** 19\. května 2026 **Čas:** 17:30 – 21:00 **Místo:** Scott Weber, Náměstí Republiky 1081/7, Praha **Jazyk:** čeština **Registrace**: [https://www.eventbrite.com/e/n8n-automatizace-v-praxi-od-use-cases-k-funkcnim-workflow-tickets-1983249530734](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/n8n-automatizace-v-praxi-od-use-cases-k-funkcnim-workflow-tickets-1983249530734) ### Co vás čeká Ukázky automatizací z různých prostředí: * automatizace v projektovém řízení a týmové spolupráci * use cases z právních firem a práce s dokumenty * finanční automatizace, fakturace a napojení na ERP a účetní systémy * praktické workflow pro každodenní provoz ve firmách ### Speakři * Tomáš Bláťak (Chief Product/ Operations Officer, Leadspicker): **Jak z LinkedIn postu zákazníka udělat obchodní příležitost — automaticky pomocí n8n** * Lukáš Bekr (Product Marketing Manager, Apify): **Analýza konkurence na autopilot** * Jakub Tenk (Lead Software & AI Engineer, VIRTUAL CV LEAD): **Abra Flexi & n8n: Od automatických reportů k AI asistentům** * Daniel Zach (COO, Easy8): **Od uzavření obchodu k realizaci projektu.

**ProductTank NoVA is back!** After a brief hiatus, we are relaunching the chapter with a format that cuts out the fluff and gets straight to the reality of building. Every product feed is flooded with AI hype right now, but what does it actually look like on the ground? Instead of a polished keynote, we are hosting **0 to 1 with AI: Real Product Talks**—a "Show & Tell" featuring 3–4 lightning talks focused on the intersection of AI and product. The framing for the talks is simple: *"Here is what I'm building, and here is what I'm stuck on."* We want to look at the messy, 0-to-1 reality of integrating AI into your workflows and products. *(Want to share what you are working on? Reach out! The bar is low-pressure, just 10–12 minutes to talk about a real AI problem you are trying to solve.)* **Agenda:** * **5:30 PM - 6:00 PM:** Doors open, networking, & name tags * **6:00 PM - 6:10 PM:** Welcome + Chapter Relaunch Intro * **6:10 PM - 7:30 PM:** Lightning Talks (Three 12-min talks + 5 mins Q&A each, with a 5-min stretch break) * **7:30 PM - 8:00 PM:** Open networking * **8:00 PM:** Soft close **Location & Logistics:** Herndon Fortnightly Library (Extended Hours Meeting Room) 768 Center St, Herndon, VA 20170 * **Parking:** We'll meet at the library, located just behind the Herndon Municipal Center. There is plenty of free public parking available around the municipal center. * **Metro & Bus:** Take the Silver Line to Herndon Metro Station, then connect via Fairfax Connector Route 921 or 950 to Historic Downtown Herndon. * **Driving (via VA-267/Dulles Toll Rd):** Take Exit 10 North (Centreville Rd, which becomes Elden St). Turn left onto Station St or Lynn St. * **Driving (via VA-286/Fairfax Co Pkwy):** Take the Elden St West exit. Turn right onto Lynn St. Looking forward to seeing everyone again and getting back to building!

Join our new group’s third meeting. Meet fellow tech enthusiasts west of the beltway. ​Because our group is new, we have a poll for the direction we want to take this new group. ​[https://submatrix.net/article/Meetups/e9ym4fr8Ca](https://submatrix.net/article/Meetups/e9ym4fr8Ca) ​For this event, we will be running a working meetup. ​Our meetings are a great place to work on and show off what you do. We are always welcoming. ​Our format is great for people who have started on but not finished one or several side projects. ​We will start off with basic introductions and what we are working on and what our goals are. We’ll break the rest of the meeting into two working sessions. In between, we’ll do a quick check-in to see how folks are going. If the RSVP is full, come anyway. We'll likely have space.

Start at the old train depot. After the run, we'll meet at Mile 20 for a drink! Run starts at 6:45 pm we will head toward Sterling tonight. Run at your own pace out and back. 2 mile runners turn around at Crestview Drive. 3 mile runners turn around at Tamarack Court. 3.5 & 4 - No cross streets in this stretch. You're on your own. :-) 5 mile runners - turn around at Sterling Blvd.

NOVA Code and Coffee is an inclusive, informal, co-working session. People of all skill levels are invited. The concept is simple, bring a laptop and ideas, we'll provide the coffee and donuts! Here's how it works: 1. At 10:15 everyone introduces themselves and briefly describes what brought them to Code & Coffee today (project, homework, networking, etc) 2. For the rest of the day, folks work in the communal space on their projects providing one another help and conversation as needed. Oh and they usually drink coffee and tea too! That's it! Hope to see you there! **Location** Our hosts are the Fairfax City Economic Development Building: [10300 Eaton Pl, Fairfax, VA 22030](https://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&&p=d7298231ca2df594df822003f9a93517c788fceefe1fcbb79c8976696e341bc6JmltdHM9MTc1MzIyODgwMA&ptn=3&ver=2&hsh=4&fclid=180d0745-3b7f-69a1-23a2-11433a7868e5&u=a1L21hcHM_Jm1lcGk9MTA5fn5Ub3BPZlBhZ2V-QWRkcmVzc19MaW5rJnR5PTE4JnE9RmFpcmZheCUyMENpdHklMjBFY29ub21pYyUyMERldmVsb3BtZW50JnNzPXlwaWQuWU44NzN4ODI4MTk2Mjg0NTk5MDM4MTU0MiZwcG9pcz0zOC44NjE0NDYzODA2MTUyMzRfLTc3LjMwMjE3NzQyOTE5OTIyX0ZhaXJmYXglMjBDaXR5JTIwRWNvbm9taWMlMjBEZXZlbG9wbWVudF9ZTjg3M3g4MjgxOTYyODQ1OTkwMzgxNTQyfiZjcD0zOC44NjE0NDZ-LTc3LjMwMjE3NyZ2PTImc1Y9MSZGT1JNPU1QU1JQTA&ntb=1) Conference Room A- Large, Floor 1 This is a new venue for us, so give us some time to get more details about it. Driving is the best option. There is plenty of free on-site parking. Otherwise, we are a 22 minute bus from the Vienna Metro Station. Bicycling from Vienna is possible but difficult, though once you are here, there's a bike rack in the garage behind the building, and there's also a Capital Bikeshare dock 15 min walk away. **Sponsored by:** Thank you [Fairfax City Economic Development](https://gofairfaxcity.com/) and [Mason Enterprise Center](https://enterprise.gmu.edu/) for making this event possible! **Thank you so much to our wonderful sponsors!** Organized by [DMV Petri Dish](https://www.dmvpetridish.com/) **[Code of Conduct](https://github.com/NoVACodeCoffee/admin/blob/master/code-of-conduct.md):** We value the participation of each member of the community and want all attendees to have an enjoyable and fulfilling experience.
