At Kovant, we learned this the hard way, going through four stages of trial and error before landing on something that actually works at scale. In this talk, Kovant's CTO will share the honest story behind that journey and reveal the approach that finally made it click for our teams. *By Dror Asaf, CTO and Co-founder* **Claude in Red Team and Blue Team Mode: From Breaking Things to Putting Out Fires (In Spanish)** A practical talk on how to use Claude for reconnaissance and early phases of pentesting (red team), as well as a technical aid for incident analysis (blue team). This talk explores what it truly means to be a hacker, separating myths from reality, and dives into a hands-on lab using Claude Code, covering setup, context, and operational rules. We introduce MCP as the interface that enables models to interact with tools, and walk through real testing targets and methodologies. Through practical exercises, we demonstrate how to identify web vulnerabilities, interpret Nmap outputs to prioritize risks and define next steps, and finally how Claude Code can also support defensive strategies, showing its value for both red and blue team scenarios. *By Joaquín Gamiz Delgado, Security Engineer, Content Creator & Instructor* **\*\*\*** We’d like to thank our sponsor, **InnoIT** 🙌, for providing the space, snacks, and drinks! 🍕🧃 Don't miss it! 🎉 **\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-** **🎉 ¡Ya está aquí nuestro siguiente evento!** Después del éxito del estreno, estamos encantados de anunciar el siguiente evento de Claude Code Barcelona. ¡No te pierdas estas dos charlas y su correspondiente networking, esta vez gracias a nuestro nuevo host, InnoIT! **⚠️** E**l aforo es limitado .** Te recomendamos reservar la tuya cuanto antes.

At InnoIT Consulting, we are delighted to invite you to our upcoming event, organized in collaboration with Claude *Code Barcelona*, on **Wednesday, May 20**. 🎙️*Claude Code: Scaling AI Agents & Security in the Wild* **SUMMARY** We will be joined by **[Dror Asaf](https://www.linkedin.com/in/drorasaf/)** (Co-Founder & CTO, Kovant) and **[Joaquín Gamiz](https://www.linkedin.com/in/joaquin-gamiz)** (Security Engineer, Content Creator & Instructor). **🎙️ From Chaos to Marketplace: A Practical Guide to Sharing AI Agent Best Practices at Scale,** Dror Asaf As AI agents become central to development workflows, the real challenge is no longer adoption — it's **scaling them without letting knowledge become siloed** within individuals or teams. At Kovant, this challenge drove a progressive evolution: from ad hoc use in individual repositories to a central instructions repository, to a **dynamic skills system** that adapted to the context per project, ultimately culminating in an **internal plugin marketplace** that made sharing capabilities intuitive. Along the way, we discovered which simple approaches broke down at scale — and which solutions actually held up. This talk provides a **clear framework for managing agent knowledge** based on organizational maturity, along with practical lessons and actionable starting points for any team looking to consolidate **scattered knowledge into shared infrastructure**. **🎙️ Claude en modo red team y blue team: de repartir leña a sacar el extintor,** Joaquín Gamiz Una charla práctica sobre cómo usar Claude en **tareas de reconocimiento** y **fases iniciales de un pentesting (red team)**, y también como **apoyo técnico para analizar incidentes (blue team)**.

Want to build websites with **modern WordPress**? Come practice with us. **What happens during the session?** * We pick a real website section together — a banner, a team section, a pricing table — from a live site or a Figma file * We reproduce it using WordPress's new block editor (Gutenberg & FSE) * We work in pairs — two people, one laptop, building together **Good to know:** * Spots are limited to 6 — small enough to have real conversations and make real connections * Stuck on something? Someone in the group will be happy to help **Who is it for?** * ​Entrepreneurs, freelancers, developers, designers, or anyone curious about building websites with modern WordPress * ​Some WordPress experience is helpful — no previous experience with the new editor needed **What to bring?** * Your laptop with a local WordPress install — we recommend [LocalWP](https://localwp.com/), it's free and takes 5 minutes to set up * A block theme activated (Twenty Twenty-Five works perfectly) **What is "modern WordPress"?** WordPress has evolved from a simple blog editor into a full site design tool called Gutenberg & Full Site Editing (FSE). You can now build every part of your website — header, footer, templates, page layouts — using visual drag-and-drop blocks, without touching a single line of code. This makes heavy page builders like Elementor unnecessary: no bloat, no plugin dependency. Modern WordPress loads only the styles each page actually needs, resulting in faster, lighter sites — and because clean code and speed are exactly what Google rewards, your SEO improves naturally too. Most WordPress users haven't made the jump yet — this meetup is the place to start. \*\*\* 🇪🇸 ¿Buscas eventos en español? Te recomiendo el grupo WordPress Barcelona 👉 meetup.com/wordpressbcn

Speaker: Utku Can Ozturk, Data Scientist and main developer of the Gigaspatial project Geospatial data is critical for global development, but practitioners constantly battle fragmented data, scaling issues, and complex integrations across vector and raster formats. Enter GigaSpatial, an open-source Python library built by UNICEF’s Giga initiative to help connect every school in the world to the internet. In this talk, we will explore the architecture behind GigaSpatial and how it replaces the need to stitch together a dozen different tools to answer a single spatial question. We will dive into how the library orchestrates data collection, transformation, and standardisation pipelines at scale. By leveraging strict configuration validation, object-oriented data connectors, and seamless multi-store management, GigaSpatial provides a unified API to wrangle spatial data. Finally, we’ll look at real-world applications across 30 countries, from validating point-of-interest data against multiple global building footprints to running zonal aggregations using different grid systems. Whether you are a data engineer, a GIS professional, or a Python developer interested in open-source architecture, you might find this talk an interesting look into how we build robust spatial pipelines; and we would love to explore ways you can contribute to this global mission. 📅 **Date:** 21 May ⏰ **Start time:** 19:00 h 📍 **Location:** [Akasha Hub](https://maps.app.goo.gl/CZE8q8uaag8UgnRCA) \- Carrer de la Verneda\, 19\, Nau 1 · Barcelona

🚀 Hey, everyone! The **largest English-speaking tech & business community from Andalucía** is now coming to Barcelona! What started as a bi-weekly morning coffee uniting like-minded entrepreneurial minds in Málaga ☕️ is expanding — and we’re bringing that same raw energy, openness, and connection to Barcelona. As always, there’s no formal agenda or moderation — just real, unfiltered conversations in English (and a bit of Spanish) 🗣️ Our focus remains the same: cultivating meaningful relationships, creating space to exchange ideas, share journeys, and learn from others building in the startup ecosystem 👥 It’s the perfect environment to test ideas, form new alliances, and spark unexpected collaborations — all over great coffee and breakfast. Let’s gather, connect, and dive into thoughtful conversations in a relaxed setting. Barcelona, we’re coming!

Columbus Code & Coffee is an inclusive, informal co-working session. People of all skill levels attend, and we love it that way. Many people (optionally) bring projects to work on, and many other people (optionally) socialize the entire time. It's entirely up to you! **What to Expect at the Intro Circle** \~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~ Near the beginning of the event (1:30 pm), we do a standup: * Organizer announcements, updates, and logistics Round 1 - (7 secs max): * Your name * What you're working on * What you can help others with Round 2: * Community events you wanna plug. If none, that's cool too. Round 3: * Job opportunities you're hiring for OR announce that you are looking for one. If none, that's cool. After the introduction circle, everything is self-organized! Feel free to work alone, pair up, attend one of our workshops/presentations, or mingle!
