Okupljanje ex-Yu tech stručnjaka i preduzetnika u Nemačkoj #7
Okupljanje ex-Yu tech stručnjaka i preduzetnika u Nemačkoj #7
**Two talks. One founder story. One reality check on AI. No fluff.** **=== Please see the English version below ===** Vraćamo se sa 7. okupljanjem ljudi iz sveta tehnologije i preduzetništva iz bivše Jugoslavije (ex-YU), u organizaciji [Nemačkog kutka](https://nemackikutak.com/) i [Serbian Entrepreneurs](https://www.serbianentrepreneurs.com/). Događaj se održava na engleskom jeziku i otvoren je za sve - bilo da dolazite iz regiona ili ste deo šire zajednice. **\# Datum i lokacija** • Sreda, 6. maj 2026 • cognee.ai – Prilaz 4, 1. sprat, Paul-Lincke-Ufer 39–40 • Početak: 18:00 **\# Predavači i teme** Dva predavanja. Jedna osnivačka priča. Jedan ozbiljan pogled na veštačku inteligenciju. Sirovo, bez ulepšavanja. **Milica T. Jovanović** je senior istraživač korisničkog iskustva sa više od dve decenije iskustva u dizajnu, istraživanju i razvoju proizvoda. Bavi se razumevanjem stvarnog ponašanja korisnika i pretvaranjem uvida u bolje odluke u razvoju proizvoda, uz poseban fokus na ulogu veštačke inteligencije u istraživanju. U ovom predavanju, Milica govori o tome da li veštačka inteligencija treba da zameni istraživače korisničkog iskustva — gde daje rezultate, gde ne i šta se usput gubi. Takođe će pokazati kako se veliki jezički modeli mogu koristiti u istraživanju bez stvaranja lažnog osećaja sigurnosti. • **Tema:** Istraživač vs. mašina: Da li veštačka inteligencija može da zameni istraživanje korisničkog iskustva? **Jovan Stevović** je izvršni direktor i suosnivač kompanije Chino.io. Živi između Italije i Nemačke i radi u jednom od najzahtevnijih regulatornih okruženja — digitalno zdravstvo. Doktorirao je u oblasti inovacija u zdravstvu i ima više od deset godina iskustva u industriji, radeći na preseku veštačke inteligencije, usklađenosti sa propisima i razvoja proizvoda. U ovom predavanju, Jovan deli iskustvo izgradnje i prodaje kompanije. Od ideje, prvih odluka i obezbeđivanja finansiranja do toga kako zaista izgledaju prodaje kompanija iza kulisa. Iskustvo iz prve ruke koje nijedna knjiga ne može da prenese. • **Tema:** Od nule do prodaje: realna slika preduzetničkog puta **\# Program događaja** * **18:00 - 18:30** Ulaz i upoznavanje * **18:30 - 18:40** Uvodna reč * **18:40 - 19:00** Milica T. Jovanović: Istraživač vs. mašina: Da li veštačka inteligencija može da zameni istraživanje korisničkog iskustva? * **19:00 - 19:15** Pitanja i odgovori * **19:15 - 20:00** Umrežavanje uz hranu i piće * **20:00 - 20:20** Jovan Stevović: Od nule do prodaje: realna slika preduzetničkog puta * **20:20 - 20:35** Pitanja i odgovori * **20:35 - 20:45** Završna reč * **20:45 - 21:15** Umrežavanje uz hranu i piće * **21:15 - dalje** Prelazak u obližnji kafić na druženje i piće **\# Registracija** Ulaz je besplatan zahvaljujući cognee.ai, koji sponzoriše događaj i podržava zajednicu. Broj mesta je ograničen na 80 učesnika. Molimo vas da potvrdite dolazak kako bismo mogli da isplaniramo prostor, hranu i piće. Gradimo, delimo i podržavamo jedni druge. Vidimo se! **==================================================================** **======================== ENGLISH VERSION ========================** **==================================================================** We're back with the 7th gathering of builders, founders, and tech folks from the former Yugoslavia (ex-YU), organized by [Nemački kutak](https://nemackikutak.com/) and [Serbian Entrepreneurs](https://www.serbianentrepreneurs.com/). The event is held in English and open to everyone - whether you’re from the region or just part of the broader scene. **\# Date and Location** * Wednesday, May 6, 2026 * cognee.ai - Courtyard 4, 1st Floor, Paul-Lincke-Ufer 39-40 * Start: 18:00 **\# Speakers and topics** **Two talks. One founder story. One reality check on AI. No fluff.** **Milica T. Jovanović** is a Senior UX Researcher with over two decades of experience across design, research, and product. She focuses on understanding real user behavior and turning insights into better product decisions, with a growing interest in the role of AI in research workflows. In this talk, Milica explores whether AI should replace UX researchers: where it works, where it fails, and what gets lost along the way. She shares how to use LLMs in research without falling into the trap of false confidence. * **Talk:** Researcher vs. The Machine: Should AI replace the UX researcher? **Jovan Stevović** is the CEO and co-founder of Chino.io, living between Italy and Germany and operating in one of the toughest regulatory environments: health tech. With a PhD in healthcare innovation and 10+ years in the industry, he operates at the intersection of AI, compliance, and product. In this talk, Jovan shares a raw perspective on building and selling a business: from day zero decisions and fundraising to how exit deals are actually structured behind the scenes. First-hand experience no book can teach. * **Talk:** Day Zero to Exit: The Founder’s Full Circle Reality Check **\# Timetable** * **18:00 - 18:30** Entry & networking * **18:30 - 18:40** Opening note * **18:40 - 19:00** Milica T. Jovanović: Researcher vs. The Machine: Should AI replace the UX researcher? * **19:00 - 19:15** Q&A * **19:15 - 20:00** Networking with food and drinks * **20:00 - 20:20** Jovan Stevović: Day Zero to Exit: The Founder’s Full Circle Reality Check * **20:20 - 20:35** Q&A * **20:35 - 20:45** Closing Note * **20:45 - 21:15** Networking with food and drinks * **21:15 - open end** Moving to a nearby café for socializing and drinks **\# Registration** Admission is free thanks to **cognee.ai for sponsoring the event and supporting the community**. Spots are limited to 80 participants. Please confirm your attendance so we can plan space, food, and drinks accordingly. Let’s keep building, sharing, and supporting each other - excited for what’s ahead!

PBerg engineers - monthly meetup
PBerg engineers - monthly meetup
**This is 100% non-profit. The 15€ sign up fee for everyone is only to minimize last-minute cancellations. The total sum goes to a bar-tap that everyone can use to order drinks until the amount is used up. ‼️NO REFUNDS‼️** **‼️Please don't just show up without RSVPing here and paying the 15€. We have a separate room that has limited capacity and a specific drinks agreement with the bar - so splitting up the bill won't become a mess.‼️** **Small update on how your money get's used from May 2024 onwards:** As of this month, meetup.com has started charging me 34€ instead of 16€ per month. I've decided to distribute this fee evenly among all us participants every month. Example: In the last 12 meetups, the average number of attendees was 17. With 17 attendees I would effectively collect 230€ (after fees). I would now substract 34€ leaving us with 196€ that go to the bar. 15% get's tipped to the wait staff, in this case 30€, leaving us with 166€ effectively to order drinks. Hope everyone is cool with this system. :) Website: https://www.pberg-engineers.me WhatsApp groups: Please come and join us on WhatsApp! \- "PBerg Engineers \- NEWS" \- Only organizers can post announcements or polls \-\> https://chat\.whatsapp\.com/EqMJMmlCZO6LOOfAoG4yTj \- "PBerg Engineers \- DISCUSS" \- Everyone can post \-\> https://chat\.whatsapp\.com/LPuo76J83gF6IZMLUcM4u2 Please join those groups now if you're interested. :) All skill/education-levels welcome! :) Lightning Talks: \- TBD We'll also have a brief "Jobs: Lost & Found section". **Location:** From the street you will have to enter the right hand Cafe Chagall (yes, there are 2). Then, you go upstairs and our private room is in the far end corner of the building. We are a relaxed, non-formal meetup of like-minded software engineers who want to always keep learning and want to meet in physical reality over a drink or two. Prenzlauer Berg, Berlin is home to some of the most talented software engineers in the world, and every month, they come together for an exciting knowledge sharing meetup. This meetup is a chance for attendees to learn from each other, share their experiences, and gain new insights into the world of software engineering. The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming, and the discussions are always engaging and thought-provoking.

Whether you’re a founder, aspiring entrepreneur, or simply curious, this session will challenge you to think critically and act decisively. *** # 📅 Event Details 📅 **May 9, 2026** ⏰ **17:00 – 19:00** 📍 **MAATI – Indische Küche** 🤝 Community We’re building a space where people don’t just network, they **connect, collaborate, and grow together.** For updates about upcoming events, networking opportunities, and founder meetups, join our **WhatsApp community** where entrepreneurs support, connect, and grow together. 👇 [https://chat.whatsapp.com/IOjguBGBakz59qp2b6BE0V](https://chat.whatsapp.com/IOjguBGBakz59qp2b6BE0V)
