Hi and welcome to our next Socrates Café philosophy meetup! Do you have a hunger for deeper understanding of yourself and the world? Do you value deep, honest and respectful dialogue? If yes, then this meetup will be very interesting for you. • WHAT IS A MEETUP ABOUT? We ask, answer and discuss questions and ideas to stimulate critical thinking and to widen our perspectives with new concepts and thoughts. The main purpose of these meetups is to enrich ourselves with the perspectives of others, not to convince others about our own perspectives. Our meetups are about our own philosophies of life and not necessarily what the great philosophers and academics have said or written. It is not a debating club or a platform for proselytizing. Instead, we place the emphasis on questioning, open mindedness and challenging our own assumptions while listening to and respecting the views shared by others. A Socrates Café meetup is considered a success when participants leave a discussion with many more questions than they had at the beginning. • WHAT TOPIC IS DISCUSSED AT THE MEETUP? Participants suggest topics at the beginning of each meeting. We then vote and choose that event's most popular topic for discussion. No academic training in philosophy necessary; just enthusiasm for exchanging ideas and points of view. Some examples of subjects chosen on previous meetups: * What ideals are worth dying for? * Why are we never satisfied? * Why is it that human beings know that the society is going wrong, leaders are well informed about it and things continue as is? * Is identity necessary? * How can it be that people in democratic societies are so obsessed with power? (Desire to be different, better, stronger than others) * What is friendship? • WHO PARTICIPATES AT THIS MEETUP? Anybody is more than welcome to join our meetups. Our events gather people from different backgrounds, different cultures, while no philosophical background is mandatory. Our usual participants are people that have a hunger for deeper understanding of themselves and the world. People that value deep, honest and respectful dialogue. The inspiration for Socrates Cafe originates with the book of the same name, written by the philosopher Christopher Phillips. (Socrates Cafe: A Fresh Taste of Philosophy, 2002). Phillips felt that the Socratic method of dialogue and discussion should be practiced not just in academic settings, but among everyday people interested in examining deep questions together. Hundreds of Socrates Cafe groups now exist around the world.

👉 🎟️ Get Your Ticket: [https://bit.ly/4dfWQEu](https://bit.ly/4dfWQEu) **Overview** From Idea to Product Series #1: A 2-Hour practical workshop to validate your product idea before building your app or SaaS + Networking ### Event Description Every day new apps, SaaS tools and AI products are being built. Technology has made building products easier than ever. But one challenge remains the same: **Many products are built without solving a real problem.** Founders and builders often start with a solution, a feature, or a technology — and only later discover that the problem isn’t as real or important as they thought. This workshop will help you step back and answer one critical question: **Are you actually solving the right problem?** In this interactive session, you’ll learn a simple framework to evaluate your product idea and ensure it is grounded in a real user need. ### What You’ll Learn This workshop is part of the Product Building Series. Together, the three workshops provide a complete path from idea → product scope → product structure, helping you move from concept to a clear and scalable product. In this workshop we will explore: • Why many product ideas fail before reaching the market • The difference between a **solution idea** and a **real problem** • How to identify the right user and the right situation • A simple framework to validate whether your idea solves something meaningful. You’ll see real examples of how small changes in problem definition can completely change a product. ### What You’ll Leave With Participants will complete a **Problem Definition Canvas** for their own product idea. By the end of the workshop you will have: ✔ A clearer definition of the problem your product solves ✔ A better understanding of who your users actually are ✔ A structured Problem Definition Canvas you can use to refine your idea ✔ A practical framework you can apply to future product ideas. ### Who This Workshop Is For This workshop is ideal for: • founders and startup builders • people working on a new app or SaaS idea • indie hackers and makers • early product teams exploring a new product or feature. No technical background is required. ### Workshop Agenda (120 minutes) **1\. Welcome & Introduction** Why validating the problem is the most important step before building. **2\. Why Many Product Ideas Fail** Common mistakes when starting a digital product. **3\. The Problem Validation Framework** A simple structure to identify real user problems. **4\. Real Product Example** How defining the problem changes the product. **5\. Practical Exercise** Use the Problem Definition Canvas to analyse your own idea. **6\. Discussion & Insights** Common discoveries and lessons from the exercise. **7\. Wrap\-Up & Next Steps** ### What to Bring Bring a product idea, feature idea, or startup concept you are exploring. You will apply the framework directly to your own idea during the workshop. ### Format - Interactive workshop - Small group discussion - Practical exercise After the workshop, participants are invited to continue the conversation during an informal **networking session at Sisi Bar on the top floor, where we can share experiences, discuss product ideas, and enjoy the beautiful views over Barcelona together.** 👉 🎟️ Get Your Ticket: [https://bit.ly/4dfWQEu](https://bit.ly/4dfWQEu)

No slides. No speaker. No agenda. Just developers talking shop over a cold one. This is an informal gathering for engineers, founders, and builders who are deep in the agentic coding trenches — using tools like Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Code, OpenCode, or rolling their own agent pipelines. Come swap what's actually working, what blew up in production, and what you're excited about right now. We'll be at a bar in Gràcia, Barcelona, and the format is simple: show up, grab a drink, and share what you know. Bring a laptop if you want to show something, but it's not required. **What we talk about (but not limited to):** * Agentic coding workflows and tooling * Prompt engineering & context engineering in practice * Multi-agent architectures and orchestration * AI-native product building * What's broken in the ecosystem and how you're working around it **Who should come:** Developers, technical founders, and AI engineers who build with (or on top of) LLMs. All levels welcome — senior devs with war stories and curious beginners both make the conversation better. **Format:** Open conversation, round-table style. Everyone teaches, everyone learns.

This session introduces Squad: an open-source framework for multi-agent orchestration that lets you define teams of AI agents with specific roles, responsibilities, and expertise. We'll progress from Copilot basics to the Copilot CLI, explore how Agents add autonomy, and see how Instructions and Skills let you customize agent behavior. Then, the climax: a live demo where a Squad team of 3 agents (Lead, Developer, Tester) stands up and builds a working application in real-time, showcasing true multi-agent collaboration. Whether you're new to AI or exploring how to scale your use of Copilot, this session will show you what's possible when agents work as a team. **YouTube Link** TBD
