Hello PyData People! We are excited to announce our next event of 2026! This time, we will be hosted at Generali Italia’s Torre Generali in Milan for an evening dedicated to open data, data platform orchestration, and scalable data engineering. 📅 When: Thursday, May 19th, 2026 – 18:30–21:00 📍 Where: Torre Generali Italia, Milan ⚠️ Important: Spots are limited. Please keep your RSVP updated to allow others to participate if you can no longer attend. *** **🕒 Agenda** 18:30 – Doors open & check-in 19:00 – Talk 1: Democratizing Data: A deep dive into Eurostat Open Database – Simona Mazzarino 19:45 – Talk 2: Scaling Data Mesh Orchestration with Dagster: Platform-Driven DAGs without Platform Friction – Marco Santoni and Andrea Romeo 20:30 – Networking & Social Dinner *** **🎤 The Talks** **1️⃣ Democratizing Data: A deep dive into Eurostat Open Database** Speaker: Simona Mazzarino (Data Scientist @ Clearbox AI) In this talk, we explore how to turn open data into actionable insights. You will learn how to navigate Eurostat, the EU’s vast statistical database, and use Python tools to fetch and process data for research, AI, and real-world analysis. We will look at how to discover relevant datasets, work with Eurostat’s interface and APIs, and integrate public statistics into your workflows for visualizations, dashboards, and models. A guiding example will be the analysis of migration flows across European countries, from data discovery to a usable dataset for analytics or machine learning. About the Speaker: Simona Mazzarino is a Data Scientist at Clearbox AI. With a background in linguistics, semiotics, and artificial intelligence, she specializes in language technologies. She is an active volunteer in the Python Torino community, where she helps connect people interested in Python applications, and she also volunteers for PyCon Italia. *** **2️⃣ Scaling Data Mesh Orchestration with Dagster: Platform-Driven DAGs without Platform Friction** Speakers: Andrea Romeo, Platform Engineer @ TeamSystem Data Mesh promises scalability and autonomy, but orchestration often becomes the hidden bottleneck: as data products grow, cross-domain dependencies explode, DAGs become fragile, and upstream teams are forced to react to every new consumer. In this talk, we present a platform-designed orchestration solution built on top of Dagster that enables company-wide orchestration without coupling data products together. Instead of requiring data engineers to manually define DAGs or modify upstream pipelines, each data product simply declares its dependencies on upstream output ports. From these declarations, the platform automatically builds and maintains the global DAG behind the scenes, ensuring that upstream data products remain unaffected by new consumers, orchestration scales as the number of data products grows, and platform standards are enforced without slowing down teams. We’ll walk through: * the orchestration challenges we faced when adopting data mesh at scale * how Dagster was extended and shaped into a platform abstraction, not exposed directly to product teams * the Python-based design patterns used to dynamically generate and evolve DAGs * the resulting developer experience for data engineers building data products This session is a practical, production-tested story of how Python and Dagster can be used to enable scalable orchestration in a real data mesh implementation — without turning the platform team into a bottleneck. About the Speakers: Andrea Romeo is a Platform Engineer at TeamSystem, where he focuses on building and evolving the technical foundation behind data infrastructure. He works closely with development and data teams to design scalable, resilient platforms that support data-driven products and services, with a strong focus on backend, cloud technologies, and developer experience. *** See you there!

Sono proprietario di un bar e dispongo di un tavolo da biliardo semi-professionale. Sto creando un gruppo WhatsApp di giocatori amatoriali di biliardo americano pool/carambola, per la maggior parte debuttanti. Cerco persone disposte a unirsi al gruppo per giocare e divertirsi nel tempo libero, il pomeriggio oppure la sera in ogni giorno. Per stimolare l'impegno di ogni giocatore, abbiamo pattuito che il vincitore di ogni "mini-torneo" organizzato nei vari giorni giochi gratis e non paghi la tariffa di tempo per il periodo di gioco (un'ora di gioco costa 10€, ma viene di volta in volta frazionata in base al periodo di gioco effettivo). Il locale si trova in zona nord di Milano, stazione Greco-Pirelli, università Bicocca. Chiunque dovesse essere davvero interessato a partecipare e unirsi al mio gruppo, non esiti a contattarmi. Cerco persone serie e disposte solamente a divertirsi, senza puntare mazzette grazie mille. Antonio

**You’ve been living in Italy for months… maybe even years…** **but you still don’t really *live* in Italian.** You understand. You try. But when it’s time to speak, something holds you back. Not enough practice. Too much pressure. Or simply… no space that feels safe enough. I know this, because I’ve lived it. Learning the local language is what finally made me feel at home. That’s why I created this. **Welcome to The Village — a space to *experience* Italian, not just learn it.** This is for you if: – you want to actually speak, not just listen – you’re willing to make mistakes and grow from them – you value connection, presence and a positive group energy – you’re ready to step out of your comfort zone (gently, but consistently) This is **not** a traditional class. And it’s not for passive learners. In The Village, we: – practice real-life conversations – use role play, games and embodied exercises – support each other (no judgment, no pressure) – build confidence session after session The goal is simple: to help you feel more at home in Italy — in your body, and in your voice. I guide the space to make sure everyone speaks, feels included, and grows. **Small group. Real connection. Consistent practice.** If this resonates, contact me and I will share all details to attend: Francesca: +44 7551910793 Payment: 5x 2 hrs sessions: 50 euros, drop in sesson 12 euros

**[PRENOTAZIONI QUI](https://www.eventbrite.it/e/rassegna-gratuita-concerti-in-cortile-iovine-musica-arbereshe-tickets-1989461258178?aff=oddtdtcreator)** Domenica 24 maggio alle ore 17.00, la **rassegna gratuita** “Concerti in cortile” prosegue con Iovine e il concerto “Musica Arbëreshë”, in programma presso Slow Mill, in Via Volturno 32 a Milano. **L’ARTISTA** Iovine è un musicista, cantautore e autore di origine arbëresh, nato a Pallagorio. Da anni vive e lavora in Lombardia, mantenendo però un legame profondo con la propria terra e con la tradizione musicale delle sue origini, che rappresentano il cuore della sua ricerca artistica. Nel 2007 fonda il gruppo du.du.à, di cui è frontman, autore e compositore. I brani, scritti in lingua arbëreshe, affrontano temi legati al territorio e alla cultura d’origine, attraversando con naturalezza diversi linguaggi musicali, dal rock al blues, dal country alla musica popolare. Nel suo percorso da solista prosegue questa esplorazione, affiancando alla dimensione identitaria una scrittura autobiografica e un forte legame con il cantautorato. La sua presenza all’interno della rassegna rappresenta bene lo spirito di “Concerti in cortile”: proporre occasioni culturali capaci di unire persone, valorizzare la pluralità delle esperienze e rendere gli spazi condivisi del quartiere luoghi vivi di incontro, ascolto e partecipazione. L’iniziativa si inserisce all’interno del progetto Oltre la scuola, realizzato da DeP e finanziato da MMCasa. Slow Mill è gestito dall’Associazione Dora e Pajtimit APS. Il tesseramento annuale all’Associazione (€5, drink incluso) è obbligatorio per i maggiorenni. Per tesserarsi qui: **[bit.ly/sociodep](http://bit.ly/sociodep)**
