Founders House x Cloud Native Helsinki: Security night
Welcome to our **April** meetup hosted in collaboration with the non-profit **[Founders House Helsinki](https://founders-house.fi)** and **[CRACI](https://craci.com/)**.
CRACI will sponsor the food and drinks, thank you!
**Entrance Info**
***Please come to the C elevator, which is right across the movie store "filmihullu" behind Roberts coffee. Someone will be waiting at the C elevator to let you into the 8th floor.***
Schedule:
**17:00 Doors open**
**17:00 - 17:45** **Networking**
**17:45 - 18:00** **Host & organizers - Welcome and practicalities**
**18:00 - 18:30** **Software Supply Chain Attack Vectors when using Generative AI, by** **Erika Marttinen, Software Engineer, CRACI**
**18:30 - 19:00 Break, networking**
**19:00 - 19:30** **Right-sized Kubernetes Access Control with Conditional Authorization, by Lucas Käldström, Kubernetes contributor, Upbound**
Have you ever struggled writing least-privilege access control policies for Kubernetes? Are you concerned about the wide permissions of installed Helm charts? Do you manage to regularly audit who has access to sensitive resources?
In this talk, Kubernetes contributor Lucas introduces you to open source tools that help you on your defense in depth journey for securing the Kubernetes API surface. They demonstrate how to right-size your RBAC rules semi-automatically, audit who can access sensitive resources, and check whether policy refactors are correct.
This talk is part of a journey to improve Kubernetes access control in core. However, to make this initiative successful, user feedback is needed throughout the process. You’ll learn about the planned Kubernetes Conditional Authorization feature, which will make authoring right-sized policies easier.
**19:30 - 20:00 Break, networking**
**20:00 - 20:30: The LLM Gateway Is an Ingress Controller. Treat It Like One, by Juan Antonio Osorio, Software Engineer, Stacklok**
The AI gateway has quietly become the most valuable credential aggregator in the enterprise. One process holds OpenAI, Anthropic, Bedrock, and Gemini keys for every team. The March 2026 LiteLLM TeamPCP supply-chain compromise showed what that costs: one backdoored PyPI release, every credential in the gateway exposed in minutes.
This talk is about what you do before that lands. Every LLM gateway is an ordered pipeline, and the security of the pipeline is a property of its ordering, not of any individual stage. The worked example is upstream Envoy AI Gateway (CNCF project under the Envoy umbrella); the lens applies to any gateway that fronts LLMs.
**20:30 - 21:00 Networking**
**NOTE:** The event will be live-streamed on the Cloud Native Nordics YouTube.
**NOTE:** Signing up for the event gets you a seat at the onsite event.
**NOTE:** Pictures might be taken during the event and be published to this meetup page. Also there will be a livestream during the event which picks up audio from the space. If you do not want to be included in any pictures, please let the organizers know.
Finnish Language Café
Learning Finnish in Finland can be difficult because Finns tend to switch to English. That is one of the reasons people like our Finnish language café: you get to practice Finnish with Finns :)
The events are completely free and there is always a native speaker to facilitate the conversation and to help find the right words. The coffee is good too ☕😋🇦🇹
Tervetuloa!
When? ⏰
Usually Tuesday to Friday from 15:00 - 16:00
Where? 📍
In a cozy Viennese coffee house: The Good Coffee Company, Eerikinkatu 33, Helsinki

Skill Exchange Dinner: Restart — Thinkers & Makers
Tired of surface-level networking? This is something different.
A small, curated dinner for entrepreneurial and creative people who are either starting something again, or already in the middle of it.
Because starting something new takes courage. But starting again, after doubt, delay, or change, takes even more.
✨ **How it works:**
Each person comes with:
* **One skill you can offer** (something you’re good at or enjoy helping others with)
* **One thing you need help with** (a challenge, idea, or next step)
During the evening, we create space for:
* honest conversations
* idea sharing
* real support
* unexpected collaborations
No pitching. No pretending. Just real people helping each other move forward.
🎯 **Who this is for:**
* People building, creating, or restarting something
* Entrepreneurs, freelancers, creatives
* Those who value depth, honesty, and growth
🎟 **Spots are limited to 6 people.**
Your RSVP is only confirmed after ticket purchase. Food and drinks are not included in ticket. We will share the location after confirmation.
**Ticket:** 10€ (to confirm your seat)
https://luma.com/lgomam6e
On a mission to connect Thinkers & Makers here in Helsinki, and make them feel home ✨
React Native Helsinki: Fifth Edition
Save the date! The React native Helsinki Meetup is coming back.

Lessons from Building and Selling Mobile Apps
By Steven Phuc, [https://www.linkedin.com/in/steven-phuc/](https://www.linkedin.com/in/steven-phuc/)
• Second talk: **AI can write the code, but it cannot ship the app** (intermediate)
Vibe coding tools and AI agents can generate code quite well now. But they cannot ship ready apps yet. This talk is about what tools in the Expo ecosystem are coming to bridge this gap and what we engineers can do right now to write better apps with AI.
By Tomasz Czajęcki, [https://x.com/tchayen](https://x.com/tchayen?s=21)

Beginners Ukulele Lesson & Play-A-Long
**14:00 to 15:30 - Beginners Uke Session**
We will take you from zero to playing your first song in around 30 mins, and by the end of our session you will have enough of the basics to join in with our jam session. We have spare ukuleles if you don’t have one of your own.
**15:30 to 17:30 - Jam Session Part 1**
As more experienced players turn up, we will play a range of songs which everyone can join in with.
This is when the sing-a-long / play-a-long really starts. The second part of this session often has a theme around an artists, genre or season. Each song has an instrumental section, and we encourage people to improvise, harmonise or just to play it as they feel it.
**17:30 to 18:00 - Food Break**
Grab something from the menu, chat to your fellow players, meet new people. Look through the song book. Start playing random stuff.
**18:00 to 20:00 - Jam Session Part 2**
We will play some more advanced songs. The last part of the session is requests from the jam group.
Come and join us for a play-a-long jam. We will be based in the cellar bar at Iguana on Mannerheimintie. We keep it simple ... we put the words and chords on laptop. Please bring a tablet if you have one so you can also access the songbook at ukejam.online ... or you can use one of our TV screens we will have dotted around the place.
We will have a limited number of spare ukuleles and guitars. If you don't play anything, you are welcome to come and just hangout, sing if you want to. If you like, pick up a ukulele, and someone will help you play a few simple chords and play along.
If you have your own instrument, it is best to bring it. Also if you have a tablet, you can access the songbook at ukejam.online and then you don't have to stare at the TV screen all night.
Everyone is welcome ... we also have a community WhatsApp group that you can join when you come to the event.
We aim to be a safe and inclusive space for everyone. Beginners and experienced musicians are equally welcome.

**Our Speakers**
**Lachandra Baker** Founder of LBB Edutainment and the kind of person who makes you realize you’ve been confusing confidence with performance your whole life. Lachandra blends psychology, research, and radical humanity to help individuals and teams stop code-switching their way through the day and start showing up as someone they actually recognize. Expect to be challenged, affirmed, and genuinely seen - sometimes all in the same breath.
**Annette Santiago Reyes** Annette has a rare talent: she makes the way you communicate feel like a discovery, not a critique. A connection catalyst and culture strategist, she helps people understand why they show up the way they do, and how to bridge the gap between intention and impact. Whether you're navigating change, life’s challenges, or simply trying to better understand yourself and others. Annette gives you the language and the lens to get there.
**Elizabeth Wangugi** Creator of The Nap Concert and the RESTOR™ framework, Elizabeth is here to tell you that rest is not a reward - it’s a strategy. Rooted in neuroscience and restorative practice, her work helps high-achievers stop running on fumes and start leading from a place of actual capacity. If your calendar is full and your tank is empty, Elizabeth might be the most important person you hear from at Confidence Lab.
**Stephanie Andrews** Founder of Social Black Butterfly Training & Consulting, Stephanie knows what it takes to lead through complexity because she’s done it across social services, healthcare, and operations. She specializes in succession strategy and leadership development, equipping leaders to build trust, navigate the hard moments, and leave something worth inheriting. Stephanie doesn’t just develop leaders. She develops the kind of leaders people actually want to follow.
**Lillian Morales-Laster** SVP Human Resources Director at United Midwest Savings Bank and Executive Director of the Empowering Latinas Leadership Academy (ELLA). Lillian has spent her career combining her passion for equity and inclusion with her experience in human resources to lead teams and organizations in the development of supportive work environments. She leads with a vision of ensuring Latinas' voices are included in crucial decision-making processes, because for Lillian, ELLA is more than just a program. It's a vibrant community of hermanas supporting and uplifting each other as they navigate their paths to leadership. A Columbus Business First Community Champion and Distinguished Hispanic Ohioan, her commitment to empowering others shows up everywhere she goes.
**Rachyl Kershaw** Founder of Greater Columbus Consulting and the architect behind the Confidence Lab Annual Summit, Rachyl has a gift for cutting through the noise, helping high-achievers stop performing success and start living it. She asks the questions most people are afraid to, creates space for honest reckoning, and somehow makes the hard work feel energizing. If you’ve ever wondered why doing everything right still feels like something’s missing, you’re in exactly the right room.
**Why Confidence Lab?**
Confidence is the foundation for success in every area of life. Whether you’re navigating a career change, launching a business, or striving for personal growth, building your confidence is the key to unlocking your higher purpose. This is your chance to invest in yourself and start living boldly.
