**Bitcoin Meetup met Crazy Pool!**
Deze maand organiseren we iets leuks: voorafgaand aan de meetup (voor wie dat wil) spelen we Crazy Pool bij Timestamp op de Korenmarkt. Crazy Pool lijkt op minigolf, maar je speelt het met een keu en een bal die je door verschillende obstakels moet stoten. De speeltijd is ongeveer 45 minuten.
Aansluitend eten we bij Flor Fina. Je kunt ook na het diner aansluiten als je alleen voor een drankje wilt komen.
De Bitcoin Meetup is geschikt voor zowel beginners als ervaren bitcoiners. Stel je vragen en praat mee over de nieuwste ontwikkelingen in de wereld van bitcoin.
Wil je meedoen met Crazy Pool of mee-eten? Laat het ons even weten, dan houden we daar rekening mee bij de reservering.

Entrepreneurs Evening - Pub Edition
Hi all,
We’re back at Mick O’Connells and ready for another strong evening!
We’ve got our own space again. Walk in, turn right at the bar, head past the dart boards, and you’ll find us in the side room.
We've introduced a simple rotating format that gives you the chance to actually speak with everyone in the room.
Short, focused conversations, good energy, and a lot more fun than it sounds.
We’ll throw in a few conversation topics to get things going, but how you use the evening is entirely up to you.
Come with intention, or don’t. Talk business, find clients, meet future partners, make friends, or just unwind with people who get it.
We’re all building something, and we all have to roll with the punches.
Only rule: you’re an entrepreneur, freelancer, or about to become one within the next 3 months. If not… the clock starts now ;)
Try to arrive on time so we can kick things off properly.
Can't find us? Look for the grey Gnome. He’ll guide you better than any sign ever could.
See you there.

**✏️ Title: Measuring the environmental impact of Google's AI - interactive explainer**
**💡 Speaker: Ozan Ogreden**
**🍃 Abstract:**
I built an "interactive explainer" that reproduces Google's methodology from Elsworth et al. (Measuring the environmental impact of delivering AI at Google Scale, Aug 2025, https://arxiv.org/abs/2508.15734).
I'd like to share the explainer and my observations with the community. What stands out to me is a striking analytical (or rhetorical?) choice by Google team, which seems to be leading to a downward bias in headline-reported figures of their work.
With the community, I'd like to attempt at two goals. One of them is a "narrow-minded goal", trying to find a charitable interpretation of what may have motivated Google's choices (specifically in the discussion related to measuring environmental impact of LLMs). The second is a goal with a more important perspective: Given our discussion, what's the best use of our time to move the needle in sustainable IT?
*Ozan works at GreenPT:*
GreenPT is a GPT-powered chat platform, and robust API, trusted by governments, businesses, privacy-focused organizations, and developers. Running on renewable energy and hosted in Europe for strict data protection, GreenPT gives you and your team the answers you need with a clear conscience and total transparency.

**✏️ Title:** Holistic Digital Sustainability
**💡 Speaker:** Maryse Meinen
**🍃 Abstract:**
Less is More! This interactive session brings you inspiration and practical tips for embedding more sustainability all throughout your digital Product Development Cycle! Of interest for any role in the whole cycle of our process, from Product Owner to Agile coach and from business analist to tester!
**📖 About the speaker:**
Maryse works at the Rabobank improving our way of working and inspiring people to embed more sustainability in how we do Product Development. She is also a Stoic Practitioner.
**🎤 Pitches**
Our goal is connect people around Sustainable IT. In order to build more connections, we would like to offer the stage to everyone who wants to share something. We will timebox each pitch on 2 minutes exactly!
Please note that this session is intended as a community gathering, so commercial pitches are to be avoided :)

De Troost Tafel - 26 april
Wil jij met mij op een culinaire reis door rouw?
Ik nodig je van harte uit voor de Troost Tafel – Lunch Editie.
Een intieme middag waar we samen aan tafel gaan om de smaken van rouw te verkennen.
Wat is pittig in jouw rouw? Welke herinnering smaakt nog steeds zoet?
In een klein gezelschap van maximaal 8 mensen nodig ik je uit om mee te gaan op mijn culinaire reis door rouw – een reis die ik ooit begon na het verlies van mijn moeder.
Eerder organiseerde ik diners, maar deze keer kies ik bewust voor een lunch. Waarom? Omdat ik weet dat het soms spannend kan zijn om over rouw te praten. Met deze kortere, laagdrempelige editie wil ik juist ruimte creëren voor wie dat spannend vindt, maar toch nieuwsgierig is naar verbinding, troost en smaak.
🕰 Indeling van de middag
12.30 – 13.00 Inloop & ontvangst
13.00 – 13.15 Welkom & introductie
13.15 – 15.00 Aan tafel – 3-gangen lunch
15.00 – 15.15 Afronding
15.15 – 15.30 Tijd om rustig naar huis te gaan.
🌿 Wat is de Troost Tafel?
De Troost Tafel is een plek waar verliezen, herinneringen en smaken samenkomen.
Een culinaire reis door rouw – waarin we onderzoeken hoe emoties en herinneringen zich kunnen vertalen naar smaken. Wat is licht in jouw rouw? Wat voelt zwaar? Wat smaakt bitter of juist zoet?
🌟 Voor wie is de Troost Tafel?
Voor iedereen die verlies heeft ervaren – groot of klein. Of je nu net een dierbare bent verloren, of al jaren een gemis met je meedraagt: alle vormen van verlies mogen er zijn. Bij de Troost Tafel leggen we de rouw op tafel, in plaats van hem eronder te schuiven.
🍽 Wat kun je verwachten?
Een driegangenlunch, met ruimte voor stilte, gesprek en verbinding.
Je zit aan tafel met een kleine groep mensen, ieder met hun eigen verhaal.
Bij elke gang staan we stil bij een ander aspect van rouw en smaak – zodat we samen verdieping kunnen vinden in wat ons raakt en verbindt.
💛 Waarom ik de Troost Tafel organiseer?
In het laatste jaar van mijn koksopleiding verloor ik mijn moeder aan longkanker. Het was mijn eerste diepe ervaring met rouw, en het bracht me op een intense spirituele reis. In die zoektocht vond ik uiteindelijk rust en acceptatie. Helaas verloor ik recent ook mijn stiefmoeder. Na een zeer kort ziekbed werd ik opnieuw geconfronteerd met het verlies.
De Troost Tafel is ontstaan uit mijn verlangen om anderen ook een plek te bieden – een veilige, warme tafel waar verlies ruimte mag krijgen, en waar troost mag ontstaan.
Schuif je aan? Als je vragen hebt mag je me ook altijd een bericht sturen.
Girls Night Out: Laugh, Connect & Recharge @The 5th
**This might be the girls night you didn’t know you needed.**
Many women are living in constant “on” mode- always busy, always giving.
And somewhere along the way, we forget how good it feels to simply *be together*.
This is your invitation to a real **girls night out**.
Every 3 weeks we come together to relax, laugh, connect and support each other — without pressure, without fixing, without performance.
**When women gather in a safe and supportive space, something powerful happens.** We uplift each other through shared laughter, honest conversations, and non-judgement presence. Being around other women who get it can make everything feel a little lighter and brighter.
It helps us feel less alone, more supported, emotionally stronger - sometimes simply by being in the same room together.
Sometimes we talk. Sometimes we listen, Sometimes we laugh - and even sing - until our bellies hurt.
You’re free to share what’s on your mind, or simply enjoy the energy of being around other women who get it.
There’s no agenda. No judgement.
Just genuine connection, joy, and friendships that feel *easy and real.*
And often, there’s that quiet thought:
*“oh wow, I didn’t know I needed this.”*
All I ask is that you come exactly as you are — tired, joyful, quiet, loud, curious, or unsure. Everything is welcome.
We meet every 3 weeks - The upcoming months it will only be in Utrecht. later on we will switch between Utrecht, Amsterdam and Leiden - because connection grows when we keep showing up for each other — not perfectly, just honestly.
✨ Come as you are.
✨ Leave feeling lighter, more connected, and a little more yourself.

Free In-Person Meeting: Get Over Losses & Betrayals, Build Lasting Relationships
This is a free, in-person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships.
Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse.
Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well.
Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship.
Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action?
Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships!
Break free from self imposed limitations
Here we will discuss:
• How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes.
• Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you?
• Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it?
• Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love?
• Fights & arguments - what's really behind them?
• What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others?
• How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change?
• Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them?
• How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about?
• How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career?
Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general.
Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person.
Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life.
We look forward to having you join us!
This class is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.

The long-term goal is a room people want to come back to, not a one-off event people forget about.

The Story So Far: A WiA Reflection Circle
A WiA Collective Wisdom Exchange
At the start of this year, we gathered to look back, set intentions, and imagine the next chapter.
This is the follow-up.
Not a check-in. Not a progress report. A small, facilitated circle to reconnect with what you said mattered — and honestly explore what’s actually happening now.
Together, we’ll explore:
• What you intended at the start of this year - and what that looks like three months in
• What’s surprised you, supported you, or shifted
• What the next chapter needs now that you know what you know
If you were at our January gathering, bring whatever you made or wrote — your word, your artifact, your intention. We’ll look at it with fresh eyes. If this is your first time, you belong here too. You’ll start where we all started: with what’s true right now.
Optional art materials will be available for anyone who wants to reflect creatively alongside conversation. If you brought something home from January, you’re warmly invited to bring it back.
The intention is the same as always: everyone leaves feeling more clear, more connected, and a little lighter.
Space is intentionally limited to keep the experience intimate.
What to Expect
• A small, welcoming circle (not a large meetup)
• Structured conversation so everyone has space to speak
• Reflection, listening, and lived experience — not advice-giving
• Optional creative reflection alongside conversation
• A calm, supportive environment
Who This Is For
Women and underrepresented folks working in or around agile, product, technology, leadership, or organizational change — especially those looking for honest conversation and community beyond frameworks and buzzwords.
Good to Know
• No preparation required
• If you attended in January, we invite you to bring anything you created or wrote (or something that represents your intention at the start of the year) - it’s optional but invited
• Participation is invitational; listening is always welcome
• Creative activities are optional
