ArnhemJUG - March meetup
**ArnhemJUG**
We are excited to announce that we are welcomed by Avisi for the March meetup.
**Agenda**
* 17:00 CET walk-in
* 17:30 – 18:30 Food and drinks
* 18:30 – 19:30 talk: **Koog your own AI! Delicious recipes** by **Simon Vergauwen**
* 19:30 – 19:45 break
* 19:45 – 20:45 talk: **Domain-Driven Design** by **Dirk Groot**
* 20:45 – 21:30 drinks
**Koog your own AI! Delicious recipes**
Koog is an open-source Kotlin framework for building robust, and production-ready AI agents. Developed, and battle-tested in their own products by JetBrains!
In this session we’ll build an agent, and explore various techniques to tackle different kinds of problems, and complexity. How we can use model-context protocol (MCP) to give our agent access to external tools, and how to build custom tools to integrate with your own systems. How to define flexible graph workflows to design complex agent behaviors.
If you're not cooking your own AI Agents yet, you should! Join me and I’ll give you a taste of Koog.

**Domain-Driven Design**
What name should I give this entity? How should I deal with ambiguous terminology? Where should business rules be implemented? Is this validation part of the domain logic, or does it belong to the application layer? Which entities should be within the scope of this database transaction?
In this talk we explore how the **Domain-Driven Design (DDD)** methodology helps answer questions like these. We will cover the key DDD concepts, including **Ubiquitous Language**, **Bounded Context**, **Aggregates**, **Entities**, and **Value Objects**, and discuss how they fit within a software architecture.
The session is built around a practical example, so you will not only learn the theory behind DDD, but also see how these concepts can be applied in real-world software development.

This will be our seventh meetup and we’re back at our local watering hole, Mick O’Connells.
We have the right side reserved just for us. When you walk in, turn right at the bar and head past the dart boards. It’s the side room.
Bring your stories, your energy and your ambition. This is a space to talk business, meet sharp people, or simply decompress with others who understand the game.
All we ask is that you are an entrepreneur, freelancer, or planning to become one within the next 3 months. If not, the countdown starts now 😉
We’ve introduced a new social format to keep things more interactive while protecting the good vibe.
Please do your best to arrive on time so we can kick things off together properly.
Follow the grey and brown gnome in the photo below to find us. He’s our mascot.
Any questions, just ask.

🏔️ Summit Hike – Everest Edition (8,848 m)
🏔️ Everest Update for the Veluwe Power Hikers
We were preparing for a classic VPH high altitude expedition on top of the world. Unfortunately there is some disappointing news. Starting in 2026, Nepal is introducing strict new regulations for climbing Mount Everest. Climbers will now need to have previously summited a 7,000 meter peak in Nepal and must also submit mandatory health certificates.
Because we cannot realistically summit a 7,000 meter peak and then climb Everest on the same day during our hike, I am unfortunately obliged to change the program.
There is also another small complication. 1 April falls on a Wednesday, which makes organizing the expedition a bit difficult.
After a poll in the WhatsApp group, we decided to move the date to **28 March** and climb the highest point of the Veluwe, **Signaal Imbosch (110 m)**. Even if it’s not Everest, don’t underestimate this hike: we will cover **22 km with about 350 metres of elevation gain** at a brisk pace. At this altitude, however, oxygen bottles are no longer recommended.
Please update your RSVP if you can no longer attend due to the change. ⛰️🥾
**When and Where to Meet?**
10:10 sharp at Rheden Trainstation. ⏰ Please arrive on time, as we won’t be able to wait for latecomers. 🥾✨
https://maps.app.goo.gl/VaEtswyBps5awMoL7
**Where and When Shall We Rest?**
We’ll take 2 breaks:
* Lunch break in nature at Signaal Imbosch (110 m) with group photo on summit; 20 min
* Snack and drink at Basecamp (80 m) where you can buy drinks and snacks; 30 min
**Notifications:**
* Technical equipment: avalanche transceiver (beacon), avalanche probe, and avalanche shovel (if you have them)
* A compact lunch and water to share at the summit
* The hike will only be canceled in case of severe avalanche risk (code 5).
* If you plan to bring a companion, please ensure that they are also registered for the hike.
* To be the first to get updates on new hikes, join our WhatsApp group! Feel free to ask for the QR code during the hike to easily join.
* T-shirts are now available for €25, made from Fairwear-certified organic cotton with eco-friendly inks—sustainable, odor-resistant, and perfect for your hiking adventures (limited stock, available during the hike)! Let me know your size and I will bring one for you!

Walk & Talk in Arnhem Sonsbeekpark
Welcome to the event page of the Walk & Talk in Arnhem Sonsbeekpark, taking place on Sunday March 29th, 2026. This event is a informal walk where we will connect again and perhaps meet some new people. It will be the first day of Daylight Saving Time and, fortuitously, *Zeldzaam Mooi Markt* is taking place in Sonsbeek. We plan to make a stopover here. Our event is free and open for everyone to join, including Dutch and internationals.

\- A walk like this is at a casual pace and usually takes about 2 hours\, including breaks\. We are focusing on an area\, not a specific route\. This gives us some room for suggestions of participants like when to have a few minute break\.
\- We will take a coffee break at a café in between or afterwards if there's enough interest\.
\- B\-YOU: Bring your own umbrella\, in case of rain\. If the weather is really unacceptable we will go to a café instead\, or cancel the entire event\.

buitenvaders op pad
Een wandeling voor vaders die het zichzelf gunnen om even te willen uitwaaien én de diepte in willen. We lopen samen door de natuur, ontmoeten elkaar en delen wat er echt speelt — als vader, als man, in je werk of gewoon in je hoofd.
Niets moet. Er is geen afleiding, alles draait om verbinden en inspireren. Onderweg doen we een aantal oefeningen, luisteren we naar elkaar en stellen we de vragen die er toe doen. Een ideaal moment om even tot jezelf te komen — die ontspanning neem je sowieso mee naar huis.
**Past dit bij jou?** Je hoeft geen antwoorden te hebben. Alleen de bereidheid om eerlijk te zijn — naar jezelf en naar de andere vaders om je heen.
**Wat kun je verwachten?**
* Een kleine groep van max. 8 vaders
* Een mooie route op de Veluwe
* Goede gesprekken en oefeningen onderweg
* Ruimte voor jouw verhaal
* Koffie/thee en een snack na afloop
Kortom: een wandeling waarmee je investeert in jezelf en je vaderschap.
duur: 10:00-12:00 uur / investering is wat jij het waard vindt
locatie: rondom Arnhem op de Veluwe

**Session description:**
**Jasper Oosterveld - With Great Power Comes Great Labeling: Sensitivity Labels in de Praktijk**
Veel organisaties hebben inmiddels sensitivity labels geïmplementeerd als basis voor data security in Microsoft 365. Maar zodra je voorbij de basis komt, ontstaan er nieuwe vragen.
Hoe ontwerp je een werkbaar labelmodel? Hoe voorkom je dat gebruikers verdwalen in te veel labels? Wat betekent labeling voor Teams, SharePoint, Data Lifecycle Management en Microsoft 365 Copilot? En waarom gedraagt het platform zich soms nét anders dan je verwacht?
Tijdens deze interactieve sessie deel ik mijn praktijkervaringen met sensitivity labels: keuzes die goed uitpakten, dingen die ik achteraf anders zou doen en de frustraties die je alleen tegenkomt wanneer je labels écht gaat gebruiken in productie.
Dit is nadrukkelijk geen theoretische sessie. Neem je eigen ervaringen, uitdagingen en meningen mee, zodat we samen praktijklessen kunnen uitwisselen en ontdekken hoe we sensitivity labels effectiever kunnen inzetten.
**Jeroen Bijdevier - Je omgeving op orde voor veilig en optimaal Copilot gebruik**
Copilot ziet het verschil tussen achterhaalde en recente informatie niet. Die zal je dus een beetje moeten helpen. Rechten zijn vaak niet (in detail) op orde. Manueel deze zaken vinden is lastig en tijdrovend. Natuurlijk wil je rapportages hebben van het gebruik. Ergo dataveiligheid op orde en inzicht in het gebruik met Purview.

Art Night - Bring Your Own Work
Welcome to the Art School - 20's & 30's artists Meetup group! This is a community for young artists who are passionate about exploring different mediums and techniques in the world of art.

This month we will be discussing **Frank Santoro**, an American cartoonist, painter, and comics critic known for his expressive lines, experimental page layouts, and vibrant use of color. His graphic novels—including *Storeyville*, *Pompeii*, and *Pittsburgh*—blend personal storytelling with innovative visual structure, often exploring memory, place, and relationships. In addition to his comics, Santoro has been an influential voice in comics education and criticism, co-founding the magazine *ComicsComics* and creating the **Santoro Correspondence Course for Comic Book Makers**, which has helped train and inspire a new generation of cartoonists.

What Causes Your Roller Coasters in Life?
Do you sometimes feel like you do well in life then something happens and you slide back, never quite getting ahead.
At this Meetup you'll find out how to identify what actually causes the lows, the highs and everything in between. More importantly you’ll get the secret of how to gain control over your life so the highs are higher and the lows go away.
Wouldn’t it be nice to stop the wild roller coaster ride for good? Or at least make it a fun roller coaster ride, with more ups and downs.
There is a hidden factor that will be going over and you’re going to be quite surprised what it is and how much it affects your life.
Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to the event. We look forward to seeing you there.
