Den Bosch Tabletop Testing Night
Whether you are a designer with a vision or a player who loves seeing how the "cardboard magic" happens, we invite you to our board game playtesting night in Den Bosch.
Here is how you can get involved:
**The Evening Flow**
* **19:30 \| The Designer Pitch:** We kick things off with a quick showcase. Designers present their prototypes, giving you a glimpse into the mechanics and themes currently on the table.
* **The Playtest:** Once the pitches are in, players choose their table. Our goal is to ensure every game gets the eyes (and hands) it needs.
* **The Rotation:** Depending on the length of the games, ranging from quick fillers to more "epic" sessions, we will rotate players and designers throughout the night.
* **22:30 \| Wrap Up:** We wind down the sessions, exchange final feedback, and head out.
**Why Join Us?**
* **For Designers:** Get your prototype off the kitchen table and into the hands of the players. Real-world feedback is the most powerful tool in your design kit.
* **For Players:** Be the first to break (and then help fix) something new. Your insights directly influence the development of the next potential tabletop hit.
**Location:** Labyrinth Den Bosch, Orthen 16, Den Bosch **Time:** 19:30 - 22:30ish
Whether you have a game to test or just a passion for playing, come help us turn good ideas into great games.
Bringing a game concept/prototype? Consider making a 1-pager (best known as a sell-sheet) to add to your table. Players appreciate this and it helps in preparing for your game pitch.
To check for actual updates and to sign up as a designer please go to our Guild website and find the event post of that month. We also share more events and news there: [spellenmaakgilde.nl](https://spellenmaakgilde.nl/)
Systemics of Feedback: Why Feedback Culture Fails and How to Fix it.
***In this meetup, we explore why traditional feedback systems fail and what it really takes to build a culture of dialogue.***
***\*\*\*Attention! This is an in-person event only. We need a minimum of 10 attendees for gaining the most value (besides the hosts). We will notice you in advance for a go/no go around February the 20th, 2026 \*\*\****
*Drawing from real consultancy experience and organizational case studies, we’ll unpack how feedback is shaped by deeply embedded systems of judgment, social conditioning, business culture, and biological responses to threat.*
**Cool concrete case studies shared of different organizations with a diversity of challenges.**
Let’s be honest: the word “feedback” can make your stomach clench. We brace for awkward conversations that end in painful silence, or we swallow our frustration to keep the peace. We worry about disrupting relationships or being misunderstood, so we often say nothing at all.
But what is the true cost of this silence? Misunderstandings fester, trust erodes, and team morale quietly slips away. Ironically, by avoiding feedback to protect our relationships, we often end up creating the very disconnection we feared. As a result, we've developed a deeply unhelpful relationship with feedback treating it as a confrontation to be dreaded rather than a conversation for connection and growth.
**Shift consciousness, habits, and leadership behavior at every level. Explore how to create cultures of dialogue instead of confrontation, where people feel seen, heard, and able to grow.**

Generative AI - Taming The Dragon
Hey Everyone! 👋
**Location:**
\- On\-site: Dataroots Offices\, Arnould Nobelstraat 32 Leuven
\- Online: Zoom link TBA
**Practicalities for the evening on Thursday, March 5th:**
\- 18:00: Doors Open\, pizza & drinks
\- 19:00: Speaker Talks
\- 20:30: Networking & Drinks
**Welcome to edition 14 of the Generative AI Belgium Meetup! 🚀**
This time, we go on a quest.
Many epics speak of the brave and the adventurous going on a quest to conquer, slay, tame, or train a dragon along the way. The last three years of AI developments have their own stories of creativity, novel paths, and unforeseen challenges that seemed too big to tackle. In this edition, we want to bring some stories of people and teams who didn't choose the easiest path, but the most interesting one.
Join us on March 5th at Dataroots, Arnould Nobelstraat 32, Leuven, to meet these brave souls and get a feel for what it takes to tackle a challenge from scratch.
Whether it's navigating the dragon that is the EU AI Act, training and running a custom language model, or building production-ready systems, every path has its own fire-breathing challenges.
See you there!
**Line-up:**
\- 🐉 [Niels Tack](https://www.linkedin.com/in/niels-tack/): Taming The EU AI Act - Compliance as code
\- 🏰 [Sohum Bhatt](https://www.linkedin.com/in/sohum-bhatt-530114230/): Taming Local LLMs to build applications

NijmegenJUG - Maart Meetup
Met veel enthousiasme kondigen we de eerste meetup van 2026 aan, gehost bij Flink Software in Nijmegen.
**Programma**
17:30 - 18:00 Inloop + hapje/drankje
18:00 - 18:45 **Tame your Llama, run AI in Java** \- Lutske de Leeuw
18:45 - 19:00 Pauze
19:00 - 20:00 **Breaking Bad (Code): An Interactive Guide to Security Code Review** \- Arjan Gelderblom \(First8 Conclusion\)
20:05 - 21:00 Netwerken en gezelligheid
**Tame your Llama, run AI in Java** \- Lutske de Leeuw
Ready to supercharge Java projects with AI? This session will demonstrate how Java developers can harness the power of Llama models locally to create AI-driven applications without needing a deep machine learning background.
The session begins with the essentials, covering environment setup, and dives into loading and running Llama models in Java. Through hands-on examples, attendees will learn how to use Llama for powerful tasks like natural language processing and classification, bringing intelligent features to Java applications.
Forget complicated setups and steep learning curves. By the end of the session, participants will be equipped to incorporate advanced AI into their Java apps with ease. Whether enhancing user experiences, automating tasks, or improving decision-making, this talk provides practical skills to bring cutting-edge AI to any project.
Takeaways:
\- How to set up and run Llama models in a Java environment\.
\- Practical applications of Llama for natural language processing and classification\.
\- How to seamlessly integrate AI\-driven functionality into existing Java projects\.
Don’t miss the opportunity to explore the world of AI with Java. This session offers a code-centric, hands-on dive into Llama, leaving attendees with actionable skills ready for immediate use in real-world applications.
**Breaking Bad (Code): An Interactive Guide to Security Code Review** \- Arjan Gelderblom \(First8 Conclusion\)
Most security vulnerabilities slip through code review not because they're cleverly hidden, but because reviewers don't know what patterns to recognize. While automated tools catch obvious flaws, the subtle logic errors and architectural weaknesses that lead to real breaches require a trained human eye—and most developers have never been taught how to look.
This interactive talk transforms participants from passive code readers into active security reviewers. Through five progressively challenging code review exercises drawn from real-world vulnerabilities, attendees will learn to spot security flaws across multiple vulnerability categories. Between challenges, we'll build a systematic framework for security-focused code review: developing an attacker's mindset, recognizing dangerous patterns, performing data flow analysis, and prioritizing security concerns based on risk.
This session is designed for developers at any experience level who conduct or participate in code reviews. No prior security expertise required—just bring your ability to read code and willingness to think like an attacker.
**We kijken ernaar uit je te zien op 5 maart! 👋**

Into the Awakening Veluwe: A Brand NEW TRAIL🌿(23 km)
We’re heading out onto a **brand new trail** on the Veluwe, one we’ve never walked before. That alone makes this hike extra exciting.
New paths, new views, and that lovely feeling of discovery from start to finish. From the start we dive **straight into the forest**, following winding woodland paths that slowly pull us deeper into the heart of the Veluwe. The forest feels calm and spacious, and with spring just around the corner you’ll notice nature quietly waking up. Budding trees, fresh greens, birds getting busier. It’s that in between season where everything is preparing itself.
After several kilometers of forest walking, the landscape opens up as we reach the **Hoog Soerensche Veld**. Wide open fields, big skies, and that classic Veluwe contrast between forest and heath.
From here we continue towards the **Asselsche Heide**, one of the quieter and more scenic parts of the Veluwe. This section offers lovely viewpoints, open heathland, and long sightlines that really give you that spacious Veluwe feeling.
We finish where we started, completing a **full loop hike** through forests, open fields, and heathland.
**📍When and where to meet?**
We’ll meet at 11h30 at busstop Hoog Buurloseweg

IN-PERSON Book Club Meeting - ALL THE LIGHT WE CANNOT SEE by Anthony Doerr
'ALL THE LIGHT WE CANNOT SEE' by Anthony Doerr
'Marie-Laure lives with her father in Paris near the Museum of Natural History where he works as the master of its thousands of locks. When she is six, Marie-Laure goes blind and her father builds a perfect miniature of their neighborhood so she can memorize it by touch and navigate her way home. When she is twelve, the Nazis occupy Paris, and father and daughter flee to the walled citadel of Saint-Malo, where Marie-Laure's reclusive great uncle lives in a tall house by the sea. With them they carry what might be the museums most valuable and dangerous jewel.
In a mining town in Germany, the orphan Werner grows up with his younger sister, enchanted by a crude radio they find. Werner becomes an expert at building and fixing these crucial new instruments, a talent that wins him a place at a brutal academy for Hitler Youth, then a special assignment to track the Resistance. More and more aware of the human cost of his intelligence, Werner travels through the heart of the war and, finally, into Saint-Malo, where his story and Marie-Laures converge.
Doerr's stunning sense of physical detail and gorgeous metaphors(San Francisco Chronicle) are dazzling. Deftly interweaving the lives of Marie-Laure and Werner, he illuminates the ways, against all odds, people try to be good to one another. Ten years in the writing, All the Light We Cannot See is a magnificent, deeply moving novel from a writer whose sentences never fail to thrill ( Los Angeles Times).
***Please read the book and join us for a lively discussion (in English) about the contents during our afternoon book club meeting.***
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
**PLEASE NOTE:**
This is an IN-PERSON event in Amersfoort, The Netherlands. Please cancel your attendance in advance if you are unable to join, so that those on the waitlist can participate.
Looking forward to seeing you all IN REAL LIFE then!
Best regards,

Dinner Game Night
Come ready to play.
We’re turning dinner into a full-on game night. Card games, competitive chaos, and yes, those long strategic nerd games my friends love to play. We’ll also have Jackbox games on the big screen so everyone can jump in and talk a little trash.
There will be pizza. There will be drinks. There will be snacks. There will absolutely be laughter.
Pull up, grab a slice, pick a game, and let’s make it a night.
\* This will be at someone's house so address will be given night before the event.
CABS March Saturday 3/21
Thanks for being a part of the CABS Meetup Group! We meet @ the COFFEE UNDERGROUND on Indianola Avenue. We play many different games @ CABS - bring your own or play one of the OVER 2000 in our library. What are your favorite games? What was the last game you played? Hope to see and game with you soon! Check us out on Facebook! Doors open early on Saturday Mornings at 10am and around 4pm on Fridays if you are interested in learning new / simpler games ... or new to the hobby or just want to check us out come in early just after noon and we will show you around before the crowd grows. Stay for a game or two, an hour or two or for the day! Your first visit is free and after that it's $5 a meeting or you can join for the year! It's Your Move
Board games at The Forge
The Forge does have a full bar and kitchen. There is no cover charge but they do request all attendees to purchase a minimum of ~$20 per person. Soft drink refills are $1 each. Please support our hosts so we can continue to provide great events for the group!
The Forge has a large library of games available for us to enjoy. Hosts and regulars will also provide numerous popular games but please bring any games you would like to teach and/or play.
Doors open at 6, and we expect gaming to be rolling by around 630. Please promptly end your games and clear out the space at 10pm when the bar closes.
We encourage socializing but do not permit disruptive behavior of any kind. Thank you for your continued commitment to providing a fun and welcoming space to veteran, newbie, and rookie gamers in the Columbus area.
Parking can be challenging. There is a parking lot behind the neighboring Mexican restaurant that is free and easy to walk from but it's a bit hidden.
Casual Boardgames - make friends, then beat them in games
Welcome to Casual Boardgames, where we enjoy classic tabletop games and social deduction games while bonding over good food, drinks, and great conversations.
We started this group to meet new people and make new friends, and bonding over games in a relaxed atmosphere is a great way to do that.
We currently meet near route 23 and Polaris Parkway, and this is close to areas like Powell, Lewis Center, Worthington, and parts of Westerville and Columbus.
Feel free to bring your own games or play one of the many games our members bring. If you are inexperienced, we will help you learn.
Here are just a few examples of the kind of games we play.
Tabletop/board games: Splendor, Catan, Azul, Dominion, 7 Wonders…
Social deduction games: Code Names, Chameleon, Werewords…
IMPORTANT:
1. While we love playing a variety of games and competing, we are not just about the games. We interact and talk while playing, and this leads to a lot of laughter and fun. If you just want to compete and focus solely on the game, then this is probably not the group you are looking for.
2. Many people join groups like this and never (or rarely) show up after weeks or months. If you join and never really come, we will eventually remove you from the group as a courtesy to our members. Why? Because limiting group conversations (on the app) to regular members makes communication and planning much easier. Also, while it may be rare, it protects members from people who join because they are interested in following a person instead of having a real interest in our group. If you get removed, it is just because you haven’t come, and we follow this protocol as a courtesy to our regular game players.

Digital, table-top, non-experienced developers, and the like are welcomed! We'll provide signage for your game to help others learn more about your work. Wifi, outlets, tables, and seats (though standing tables also) are available.
