**Our second Product Owner Club is coming up and this time we’re diving into one of the biggest shifts currently reshaping our roles as product people: AI.** We’re excited to be **hosted by** **SQUER** **📍 [Althanstraße 4/3/63, 1090 Wien](https://maps.app.goo.gl/zysnKBZEobcA2pHz5)** **Thank you for helping the product community come together!** **Agenda:** 🕕 18:00 — Doors open & welcome 🎤 18:30 — Session #1: Alexander Schwingenschrot 🎤 19:15 — Session #2: Maurizio Rinder & Julian Tandler 🍕 20:00 — Networking with drinks & pizza **Session #1 by Alexander Schwingenschrot – Senior Consultant / AI-Manager @ adesso Austria GmbH** **The Product Owner as an "Intellectual Tourist"? How Psychological Safety Rescues Our Critical Thinking from AI.** You know the feeling: The backlog is overflowing, pressure is high, and suddenly GenAI generates your user stories, acceptance criteria, and market analyses in seconds. Sounds like a dream, right? The ticket is ready, let the sprint begin. But what happens when we switch our thinking to "autopilot"? We risk becoming mere "middle managers of our own thoughts," outsourcing the hard work of critical thinking to an algorithm. AI makes us incredibly fast—but without true psychological safety within the team to challenge the machine (and each other), we degrade into mere rubber-stampers. That’s not just dangerous for the product; it fundamentally alters the core of what Product Ownership is all about. In his talk, Alexander breaks down: * why AI becomes an innovation killer without a culture that embraces failure (Automation Bias), * what the "Intellectual Tourist" concept actually means for your daily Product Discovery, and * how you as a PO can maintain "Meaningful Human Control" without sacrificing the speed of AI. **Session #2 by Maurizio Rinder, Lead Product Engineer @ SQUER & Julian Tandler, Principal Consultant Product Management @ SQUER** **What If the Answer to Every Feature Debate Was "Let's Find Out This Week"? A PM's Guide to AI in 2026** You know the drill: Three stakeholders, three opinions, no data. Everyone argues about what to build next, and two months later only a handful of people used the feature. But what if "let's just find out" was a real answer? When AI makes building cheap, you can stop debating and start testing. That's not just a new tool in your PM toolkit, it's a structural shift in what the role is about. In his talk, * Julian breaks down what's actually changing, and goes hands-on with real examples, * Before Maurizio makes the case why this redefines what it means to be a developer, too. **Like last time, the sessions will be hands-on and interactive. There will be space to discuss, challenge, and exchange with fellow colleagues.** We’re looking forward to seeing familiar faces and welcoming new ones to the community. **Connect**... get to learn peers from different industries. **Learn**... how other Product Leaders deal with different situations. **Profit**... from shared experiences and thrive even more in your role. **Please be fair and only click “attend” on Meetup if you’re truly planning to join, so we can plan foods and drinks accordingly.** Last time we had a **show-rate of 92%**, let's keep this up 😃 **Best regards, Alex & Miriam**

This is a joint meetup with [DDD-Vienna](https://www.meetup.com/ddd-vienna/) **Agenda** 🕕 **18:00** – Doors open at TechTalk 🕡 **18:15** – Intro & Talk 🗣️ 🕗 **19:20** – Networking, 🍕Food & 🍻Drinks sponsored by [TechTalk](https://techtalk.at/) 🎉 **Domain-Driven Transformation—Modularizing and Modernizing Legacy Software** Starting a new project from scratch with a clean slate is one thing; tackling legacy systems with chaotic architectures is another. Many teams inherit systems described as “Monoliths” or “Big Balls of Mud,” and this talk focuses on how to bring order to such challenges. Participants will learn how to evaluate their current systems and identify steps to introduce—or restore—structure. Using Collaborative Modeling, attendees will gain actionable insights to design a clear and future-ready architecture. The talk will equip participants with practical strategies to address common challenges, such as BBOM architecture, anemic domain models, and disorganized teams. By the end of the session, attendees will have a catalog of proven refactorings, actionable heuristics, and concrete tools to immediately evolve their own projects. **About Henning Schwentner:** Henning loves programming in high quality. He lives this passion as coder, coach, and consultant at WPS – Workplace Solutions. There he helps teams to structure their monoliths or to build new systems from the beginning with a sustainable architecture. Microservices or self-contained systems are often the result.

UX Vienna Evening Meetups are on the 2nd tuesday of every month — 12 times a year. We’re excited to invite you to the next **UX Vienna Evening Meetup** – an evening of inspiring talks, interesting perspectives and community exchange. We’re diving into two distinct sides of the industry: the high-stakes world of healthcare and the messy, but hopefully rewarding journey of building your own tools. **UX in Healthcare** by **[Leandro Albino De Oliveira](https://www.linkedin.com/in/leandro-oliveira-uxdesigner/)**, UX Chapter Lead at Roche Leandro will be diving into the unique challenges and trends shaping the current landscape of UX within the healthcare sector. **GoGoGolor – a bloody Vibecode project** by **[Wieland Kloimstein](https://www.linkedin.com/in/wieland-kloimstein/)**, UX Designer, ImmoScout24 In 2014 I had an idea for a better color picker. Then it sat in a drawer for 10 years. Two things changed that: OKLCH — a new perceptual color standard — and LLMs that could actually help build it. A UX designer with no coding background ended up building something he had no business building. **Location** **[mySugr/Roche](https://www.mysugr.com/de/uber-uns)** Trattnerhof 1/5.OG, 1010 Vienna, Austria When you enter via the front door, take the elevator to the **5th floor**. **Important note:** once inside the office space, please stay—if you leave early or arrive (very) late, there’s no way to ring the bell or be let back in.

**Agenda :** * 4.45 to 5.00 PM ET: Food and Networking * 5.00 to 5.50 PM ET: "Hands-On : GitHub Copilot SpecKit" Hello Everyone! Please join us for our April 14th edition of the AI-ML MeetUp. **Please note this is an in-person meeting and light refreshments/food will be provided. You will need a government-issued ID to enter the facility.** **Title:** Hands-On : GitHub Copilot SpecKit **Description:** Spec-Driven Development **flips the script** on traditional software development. For decades, code has been king — specifications were just scaffolding we built and discarded once the "real work" of coding began. Spec-Driven Development changes this: **specifications become executable**, directly generating working implementations rather than just guiding them. In this hands-on lab, we will be covering building your application using SpecKit. Pre-requisites: VSCode v1.107, GitHub Copilot, Python 3.13 + uv, Git installed. **Location:** The meeting will be hosted in the Applied Information Sciences ( AIS ) office in Reston, at 11440 Commerce Park Dr # 600 · Reston, VA. The location is also right off the Silver Line metro's Wiehle-Reston Metro Station. **Parking:** Parking is paid and can be validated at the AIS office reception. We will meet in Room Lake Anne. We hope to see you all there!!!!

Your Name Your Company's Name What your company does (in basic form) One key difference maker (deliver on-time, on budget. or We close complicated cases. or We can sell your home quickly and for top dollar. Etc...) Who you would like to meet in the room or in the area (so we can refer you business :-) ) Keep it short and sweet, there will be plenty of time after and before the meeting to get to know other people in the group and even opportunities to schedule "one to one/1:2:1" meetings. We love to grab our coffee and go out to a spot in the lobby afterwards in one on ones to discuss how we can work together, get to know each other, get business done!

Celebrate Earth Day with Sierra Club Potomac Region Outings on a hike along the Potomac River at the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal National Historical Park in scenic Frederick County, Maryland. Once proposed as a paved asphalt 185 long parkway, the beautiful and historic C&O Canal was protected in its natural state by Supreme Court Justice William Douglas and others who were motivated by the same community spirit that created Earth Day on April 22, 1970. Our Sierra Club PRO hike will start at Point of Rocks and go downstream along the Potomac River to our turnaround point at Nolands Ferry. Hiking distance: 7 miles over the totally flat C&O Canal towpath, which is also part of the Potomac Heritage National Scenic Trail. Meet at 10:30AM at the west end of the Point of Rocks Train Station Parking Lot near the Point of Rocks Community Commons Park.
