Latinos night💃🕺
Welcome to our new event, now taking place every second Friday! 😃
🇱🇦 Latinos Night | Kallithea 🍹
After a hugely successful first edition, I’ve decided to move forward and run this event every second Friday. Due to demand, we are increasing our capacity to 15 spots instead of 10, while still keeping it exclusive and high-quality.
We’re meeting at El Latino Café Bar, a hidden Latin bar in Kallithea, just a short walk from Kallithea Metro 🚇.
It’s a small, cozy venue with mainly standing space—only a few chairs are available. The concept is simple: less sitting, more movement, more interaction, more networking 🤝✨. There’s also a small space to dance if you feel the rhythm 🎶💃. No tables, no formal seating, just an open, dynamic, social atmosphere.
A DJ will be playing Latin music all night 🎧🎶—fresh space, fresh crowd, fresh energy 🌶️🔥.
We’ll be collaborating with another group, ensuring a diverse, vibrant mix of people and new connections 🌍🧩.
🍹 Happy Hour: 8:30 – 10:00 PM
• Any cocktail – 5€ 💶
• Selected drinks at special prices
🕣 Event time: 8:30 PM – 12:30 AM
🎟 Entry: Free, but limited capacity.
📍 Location:
https://maps.app.goo.gl/ryquYc9KEmwhYhdw9
I’ll be there personally to welcome everyone 🙌. Arrive early, grab a drink, move around, dance a little, engage, and experience something new in a fresh part of the city.
⚠️ Limited spots – only 15 places available.
Discover. Connect. Enjoy.
See you there,
Mamad

🚶🏽➡️Hike Light / Eat Right 😋
Μία μάλλον περισσότερο περιπατητική δραστηριότητα θα κάνουμε την Κυριακή 1η Φεβρουαρίου και ώρα 14:30 προς το φράγμα της Ραπεντώσας στην Πεντέλη!
[Η συμμετοχή για όσους έρθουν με δικό τους μέσο είναι δωρεάν και εισιτήρια μπορείτε να αποκτήσετε μόνο πατώντας εδώ!](https://luma.com/k4p75xk9)
Πρόκειται για μία super χαλαρή διαδρομή ήπιων κλίσεων εδάφους, 4,5 περίπου χιλιομέτρων και διάρκειας 90 λεπτών!
Η δραστηριότητα μπορεί να πραγματοποιηθεί ακόμη και με απλά αθλητικά παπούτσια και το σακίδιο πλάτης δεν κρίνεται απαραίτητο.
Αμέσως μετά και μέσα σε 15 λεπτά, θα βρεθούμε από το βουνό, δίπλα στο κύμα!
Σκοπός και στόχος αυτής της "κατηφόρας" θα είναι η κατανάλωση τερψιλαρύγγιων θαλασσινών εδεσμάτων στην παραλία της Νέας Μάκρης!
Φαγάκι με TIQS. [Πάτα εδώ για να μάθεις τι ακριβώς είναι τα TIQS!](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1bFpKF2FGxBKkDFy9PiRle_9vNhhTNPwi9X7diFFu7ZI/edit?usp=sharing)

Σε περίπτωση δυσμενών καιρικών συνθηκών η δραστηριότητα ενδέχεται να αναβληθεί ή ακυρωθεί!
Greek Brunch: Make New Friends
⚠️ **IMPORTANT: You must sign up and buy a ticket here to attend:**
[https://groupvibe.com/](https://groupvibe.com/)
**Join the Athens Brunch Club and make new friends!**
Each meetup brings together 4–6 people for casual conversations over brunch. We use the Groupvibe platform to facilitate the meetup and ensure everyone’s a good fit.
👉 **To attend, you’ll need to complete registration via this link:**
[https://groupvibe.com/](https://groupvibe.com/)
We’ll share the exact location of the upcoming meetup the night before only if you have bought a ticket or membership plan.
**Why this works:**
\* Smaller groups make real conversations easier.
\* Discover new brunch spots in your city, together.
\* Curated brunch venues with good food and vibe.
\* If you hit it off with your brunch group, there’s plenty of time to hang out afterwards.
**Note:**
RSVPs on Meetup don’t reflect total attendance. Many attendees register directly via our website. The event on Meetup.com is only a placeholder.
This meetup is organized by Groupvibe, a small team passionate about helping people form meaningful friendships offline.
Coffee & Chat at 12pm@En Aithria
Coffee & Chat (& Brunch)
Come and make new friends this Sunday over a nice coffee & chat (& Brunch), the perfect way to end the weekend.

Azure CBUS February: Build Your Own MCP Server
### Tools in your AI's Toolbox : An introduction to MCP Servers
The generative AI revolution has unlocked unprecedented capabilities, but the next frontier is agency: empowering models to interact with, query, and act upon the world. The current challenge is the “N x M integration problem,” where every AI model requires a custom, brittle integration for each external tool or data source. This approach simply doesn’t scale. How can we give an AI access to our sales leads, code repositories, or IoT devices in a standardized, secure, and reusable way?
This session introduces Anthropic’s Model Context Protocol (MCP), the open-source framework designed to solve this challenge and become the universal connector—the USB-C port—for AI. MCP standardizes how AI models discover and use external tools, moving beyond simple function-calling to a robust, client-server architecture. We will dive into how this open protocol is creating a new ecosystem for building powerful, context-aware AI agents.
Join this session for a developer-focused introduction where you will learn how to:
Understand the core concepts of the open-source Model Context Protocol and its architecture.
Utilize pre-built, open-source MCP servers to instantly connect AI to tools like Git, Slack, and databases.
Build a custom MCP server to securely expose your own proprietary data and APIs as tools for any compliant AI.
Move beyond bespoke integrations and contribute to a standardized, collaborative, and open ecosystem.
Stop building one-off connectors and start building intelligent agents. This session will give you the practical knowledge to leverage MCP and create the next generation of AI that doesn’t just talk, but does.
Want to be a speaker? submit your talk to our Call for Presenters!!!

AI Development Risk Case Studies and how Agentic AI is the future of Appsec
OWASP is ending use of Meetup, so I built an eventbrite for the event.
https://www.eventbrite.com/e/ai-development-risk-case-studies-and-how-agentic-ai-is-the-future-of-appsec-tickets-1981450622150?aff=oddtdtcreator
AI is transforming how software is designed, developed, and deployed, dramatically accelerating velocity while introducing new categories of risk. As organizations adopt AI-assisted coding, autonomous agents, and increasingly complex model interactions, traditional application security approaches struggle to keep pace. This talk examines emerging AI-driven risks through real case studies from the field, highlighting issues such as insecure code generation, data-leakage pathways, model manipulation, and evolving supply-chain threats. We will explore how engineering teams must adapt their people, processes, and governance models to secure AI-augmented development workflows effectively. The session will then introduce agentic AI as the next evolution in application security—autonomous systems capable of continuous analysis, multi-step reasoning, and real-time remediation. Attendees will learn how combining agentic AI with modern practices can reduce developer friction, improve coverage, and create a future-ready application security strategy designed for the demands of AI-native software development
Columbus PHP: Monthly Meetup
Our monthly PHP meetup.
A virtual shindig courtesy of Zoom. Check back here for the details around 6:15 pm
CBusData - Ok I Want to Get Data into Fabric - Now What?
I love my job and one of the main things I do is help customers get going with any of the data technologies at Microsoft. Right now there are a lot of my customers asking about Microsoft Fabric. It's hard to weave across all the shiny new options across the Fabric landscape, let alone figure out where it fits into your organization. In this session we'll focus on answering one question - how can I get data into Fabric? We'll talk through the "it depends" options and see some of the options in live demos.
Columbus Code & Coffee 83 @ Improving
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!
