Join us at our March Meetup event for great talks, discussions and beers. Big thanks to Posedio for hosting! **Agenda**: * Doors open 5:30 p.m. * ***Talk 1: 6:00 to 6:30 p.m.*** * **Speaker**: Christian Kirchknopf * **Title**: Building a Secure In-House LLMaaS Platform: BRZ's Approach to AI for Federal Government * **Abstract**: In this talk, I demonstrate how we (BRZ) have developed an Enterprise-Ready LLM-as-a-Service platform that provides government applications simple and secure access to Large Language Models – without dependency on public cloud providers and without data sharing with third parties. Through a unified API, AI applications gain access to locally operated models (e.g., Mistral) or optionally to public cloud providers – depending on requirements, costs, and data protection needs of the workload. Discuss the architectural and product decisions: vLLM as a GPU-optimized inference engine, a central AI gateway that enforces multi-tenancy, security, and comprehensive observability. A brief live demo will show how applications and developers access AI models through a single API – with token-based quotas per tenant and intelligent routing. An experience report from an exciting AI infrastructure project in Austria. * **Break: 6:30 to 6:45 p.m.** * ***Talk 2: 6:45 to 7:30 p.m.*** * **Speaker**: Damjan Gjurovski * **Title**: What is A(I) platform? * **Abstract:** In this talk I will discuss the need of platforms in the age of AI. I will outline some hard-won lessons from my previous experience in developer platforms, data platforms and SRE teams, and discuss how these apply to AI platforms. On the one hand, I will make the argument that AI makes certain aspects of platforms and platform engineering unnecessary, but on the other hand reinforces the need for other platform components. Finally, I will attempt to differentiate between the two new platform types out there – AI platforms and AI Engineering platforms and discuss the capabilities and requirements for each. * **Networking**: start 7:45 p.m.

LINK: [AiTinkerers Vienna](https://vienna.aitinkerers.org/p/ai-tinkerers-vienna-strabag) ## Vienna Builders 🛠️ AI Tinkerers Vienna returns for its second session of 2026 on March 26th. We are gathering at STRABAG for an evening dedicated to the practitioners building at the intersection of foundation models and the physical world. This is a curated, technical environment for those actively shipping code. We prioritize implementation details, architecture trade-offs, and working systems over high-level presentations. Registration is open now via the form above. ### 🎤 Call for Demos: Show Your Stack We are looking for builders to share technical demonstrations. This is a technical show-and-tell for builders, by builders. We want to see your messy experiments, creative hacks, and technical discoveries in action. Your demo should answer: “How did you build this interesting thing?” not “Why should someone use this product?” **Demo Requirements:** * **No Slides:** Run live code, walk through architecture diagrams, or zoom into workflow graphs. * **Technical Depth:** Share your prompt engineering strategies, agentic workflows, or orchestration layers. * **Imperfection Welcome:** We value raw, early-stage experiments and the lessons learned from what broke.

**Die absurdeste deutsche Comedy-Show Wiens: jung, wild & unberechenbar. Gratis Eintritt – jeden Donnerstag im Comedy Pub.** # [Hol dir deine Tickets hier!!!](https://www.universe.com/events/comedy-sein-vater-absurd-witziges-stand-up-open-mic-thecomedypub-tickets-CZ89PB?ref=MeetUp) Willkommen zu **Comedy sein Vater**, der Show, die klingt wie ein Meme und sich auch so anfühlt. Jeden Donnerstag im *The Comedy Pub* übernehmen junge, wilde Comedians die Bühne, um mit absurden Ideen, schrägen Gags und gnadenlosem Humor das Publikum zum Lachen (und manchmal auch zum Kopfschütteln) zu bringen. Hier gilt: nichts muss, alles kann. Von wahnwitzigen Gedankensprüngen über dunklen Humor bis zu völlig chaotischen Auftritten – **Comedy sein Vater** ist das Open Mic, bei dem Regeln aufhören und die Absurdität beginnt. Wer brave Comedy will, geht woanders hin. Wer das Unerwartete liebt, ist hier genau richtig. ## 🤔 Was ist ein Open Mic? Ein Open Mic ist die Spielwiese der Stand-up-Comedians. Hier werden Ideen geboren, getestet und manchmal auch sofort wieder beerdigt – live, unzensiert und direkt vor Publikum. Genau deshalb ist es so spannend: du erlebst, wie Stand-up entsteht, wie Comedians Risiko eingehen und wie oft daraus die lustigsten Momente des Abends werden. Bei **Comedy sein Vater** ist das Ganze noch ein Stück extremer: mehr Mut, mehr Chaos, mehr Überraschungen. ## 🍻 The Comedy Pub – Zuhause für Chaos & Lacher Austragungsort ist das **The Comedy Pub** (Kettenbrückengasse 7, 1050 Wien) – ein Irish Pub mit Herz und einem historischen Altbaukeller, der wie geschaffen ist für wilde Stand-up-Abende. Oben wartet die Bar mit Drinks und Pub-Atmosphäre, unten der Keller mit Underground-Flair. Niedrige Decken, warme Lichter, intime Stimmung – genau der richtige Ort, um Comedy an ihre Grenzen zu bringen. Dank der U4-Station **Kettenbrückengasse** gleich ums Eck ist die Anreise so einfach wie ein Lacher auf einen guten Witz. ## 💡 Eintritt frei – Spenden willkommen Hier gilt: Lachen kostet nichts, aber wer lacht, sollte geben. Der Eintritt ist frei, Spenden sind willkommen. Jede Reaktion des Publikums – ob Applaus, Gelächter oder betretenes Schweigen – hilft den Comedians, besser zu werden. Aber wer herzhaft gelacht hat, darf das auch im Spendenhut zeigen. ## 🎟️ Regeln für das Publikum Ja, auch im Chaos braucht es ein paar Spielregeln: * Sei pünktlich – sonst verpasst du den besten Wahnsinn. * Respektiere die Bühne – auch wenn’s absurd wird. * Lachen, Stöhnen, Kopfschütteln – alles erlaubt, aber bitte keine Zwischenrufe. * Kein Heckling – das endet nie so lustig, wie du denkst. * Spenden sind Liebe – und Comedy sein Vater lebt davon. ## 🎉 Warum Donnerstag? Weil am Donnerstag alles passieren darf. **Comedy sein Vater** ist das perfekte Ventil für Wochenend-Vibes, die schon zu früh kommen. Hier siehst du Comedians, die an die Grenze gehen – mit Humor, der nicht brav sein will, sondern mutig, absurd und manchmal gnadenlos ehrlich ist. Wenn du eine Show suchst, die dich überrascht, irritiert und garantiert zum Lachen bringt, dann bist du hier genau richtig. Willkommen beim Chaos.

**About this event:** Join us on 26 March in Vienna for an evening where we'll explore how leaders actually develop capability - not in classrooms, but inside work itself. **Agenda:** **16:00 – Arrive, connect over drinks and nibbles** **16:30 – The Future of Leadership: Workflow-Embedded Skills Development** * Why traditional leadership development isn't transferring to practice * What leaders actually need in 2026 (and it's not just another model) * What workflow embedded skills development actually looks like - real examples from teams we've worked with **17:30 – Interactive Workshop: Building the Leadership Skills Your Organisation Needs** * Learn about ways to build people skils hands-on * Work through a real leadership challenge with peers * Leave with practical next steps for your context **19:30 – Networking** * Wine, food (gluten-free and vegan options available) * Connect with people facing similar challenges **16:00 – Arrive, connect over drinks and nibbles** **Why this matters** Leadership development is broken. Organisations invest heavily, leaders attend programmes, certificates get handed out - and then nothing changes. The problem isn't lack of frameworks. It's the gap between learning and doing. In the coming years, leadership development must shift from event-based training to workflow-embedded practice. At Kokoro, we've spent years answering one question: how do you empower leaders to create the conditions for sustained performance, genuine motivation, and teams that thrive? At this event, we bring leaders, teams, L&D professionals, and organisations who are committed to making that shift. Together, we will develop steps to make it real. **Who is this for** You're leading a team, department, or organisation. You're in L&D and see that traditional programmes aren't transferring to practice. You run an SME and need practical ways to develop leaders without the corporate overhead. You've sent people to leadership programmes and watched them return motivated, and then not being able to transfer the skills in to work. You know the theory-practice gap is real. You want skills development that builds into daily workflows, not outside them. **Event Details** 📆 Thursday, 26 March 2026 ⏰ 16:30–19:30 (Arrive from 16:00) **📍**Olinda Bar, Schönbrunner Str. 23, 1050 Vienna 🪑: 40 seats (limited) 🗣️: English and German 💲: Free **Register** Secure your place now by registering as spaces are limited. Questions? Reach out to Imran @ imran@bekokoro.com We ask you to register only if you can really make it. Thanks. **About Kokoro** Kokoro was founded in 2018 because we believed the way performance is measured and optimised is broken. We work with leaders and teams to build resilient, high-performing cultures where people can learn, grow, and thrive - even amid complexity and change. We do this through our team and leadership development software and services like one-on-one coaching, team development, organisational consulting that help leaders turn intention into habit. Our approach draws on evidence from flow theory, motivation science, neurobiology, and real-world practice with teams across various industries and sizes. Visit [bekokoro.com](https://www.bekokoro.com/) to learn more. **Join the Kokoro community** This is our first of 4 gatherings in 2026 - a chance to (re)connect with people making real change happen, and to introduce you to what we're building. If the culture and performance challenges you face resonate, we'd love to work with you. Looking forward to seeing you on 26 March. #Leadership #TeamDevelopment #SkillsThatMatter #LearningAndDevelopment #FutureOfWork #Vienna

**THE LAST CEO** What if AI doesn't automate the factory floor — but the corner office? A CEO costs 300K+. They make decisions based on dashboards, quarterly reports, market data. Pattern-matching at the highest salary level. Exactly the thing AI is provably best at. The third AI Salon asks the uncomfortable question: If AI makes strategic decisions faster, cheaper, and more data-driven, what's left for the humans in the C-suite? We're bringing this to **Funkhaus Wien** \- Vienna's legendary former radio broadcasting house\. Brutalist architecture\, cathedral ceilings\, and a history of transmission\. The perfect stage for asking what still needs a human voice\. **Programme:** 🎤 **Opening** — Andreas Fraunberger, Can Nuri, Michael Raab 💬 **Keynote Conversation** — Betina Kitzler (MIT Sloan Fellow) × Andreas 🎨 **Artistic Intervention** — Sarah Rechberger (Transmedia Artist) 🧠 **Think Tank** — You decide: replace the CEO — yes or no?

Drei Kulturen, ein Abend voller Lacher. Was ist Comedy CUZENGZ? **Comedy CUZENGZ** ist Stand-up Comedy aus Wien – roh, ehrlich und ohne Filter. Wir sind drei Jungs aus Wien mit komplett unterschiedlichen Backgrounds: ein **Somalier**, ein **Türke** und ein **Jugo**. Genau die Diversität, die sich jedes Englischbuch wünschen würde. Wir haben jedoch schnell gemerkt, dass unser Humor nicht überall reinpasst. Oft haben wir gar keine Bühne bekommen – und wenn doch, standen wir plötzlich vor Publikum, das unsere Referenzen gar nicht verstanden hat. Also haben wir uns gedacht: **Scheiß drauf. Wir bauen unsere eigene Bühne.** So ist **Comedy CUZENGZ** entstanden. Unser erstes Event war sofort **komplett ausverkauft**. Die Energie im Raum war krank und das Feedback von euch war so stark, dass wir direkt wussten: Hier entsteht gerade etwas Echtes. Keine steife Theaterstimmung. Keine Filter. Einfach **echte Stand-up Comedy**. Was euch erwartet Bei dieser Show stehen wieder die **CUZENGZ** auf der Bühne: **Kowsi** Unser charmantester Türke – schnell, frech und immer bereit, euch zu überraschen. **Mo** Somalias Antwort auf Dave Chappelle. Direkt, ehrlich und mit Punchlines, die sitzen. **Patrik** Stabiler Jugo und diesmal **Host des Abends**. Er führt euch durch die Show und sorgt dafür, dass der Abend eskaliert. Special Guest Diesmal haben wir außerdem einen **Special Guest** dabei: **Soso** Eine echte Wiener Comedy-Legende, die seit über **20 Jahren** auf der Bühne steht. Der Vibe der Show Freut euch auf: 🔥 Stand-up Comedy ohne Filter 🔥 Geschichten aus Wien und aus dem echten Leben 🔥 verschiedene Perspektiven und Kulturen 🔥 eine Atmosphäre wie unter Freunden Comedy CUZENGZ ist keine klassische Comedy-Show – es ist eher wie ein Abend mit deinen **Cousins**, die zufällig extrem lustig sind. Werde Teil der CUZENGZ Komm vorbei, lach mit uns und werde auch ein **Cuzeng** oder eine **Cuzine**.

**Comedy Factory: Vienna’s wild & international English Open Mic. Fresh jokes, new comedians & free entry every Saturday.** ## [GET YOUR TICKETS HERE!!!](https://www.universe.com/events/comedy-factory-english-open-mic-thecomedypub-tickets-46HDTR?ref=MeetUp) 🔥 Saturday nights start with laughter! Welcome to **Comedy Factory**, Vienna’s most international and experimental English Stand-up Comedy Open Mic. Every Saturday at 18:30, The Comedy Pub transforms into a comedy playground where fresh jokes are built, tested, and unleashed. ## Event Description: At **Comedy Factory**, anything can happen. New comedians step on stage for the very first time, while experienced performers bring their sharpest jokes and wildest new ideas. The result? A raw, unpredictable, and unforgettable night of comedy. With **10–12 comedians each week**, you’ll see a mix of bold experiments, risky punchlines, and polished sets. No two shows are ever the same – every Saturday offers a brand-new lineup of voices from Vienna’s thriving international comedy scene. This show is perfect if you’re: * an **Expat or international living in Vienna** looking for English comedy * a **local curious about stand-up culture** from around the world * a **tourist wanting a unique night out** in Vienna * or simply someone who loves to laugh at fresh, unfiltered comedy. ## 🤔 What is an Open Mic? An Open Mic is where comedy is born. Comedians test their newest material, experiment with wild ideas, and interact with the audience in real time. Sometimes the jokes kill, sometimes they bomb – but that’s exactly the fun. As an audience member, you get to witness comedy in its rawest form, up close and personal. ## 🍻 The Comedy Pub – Vienna’s Home of Stand-up The show takes place in **The Comedy Pub** (Kettenbrückengasse 7, 1050 Vienna). Unlike our underground cellar shows, **Comedy Factory happens upstairs in the main pub area** – bright, welcoming, international, and buzzing with energy. Grab a drink, settle in, and enjoy the only dedicated stand-up comedy club in Vienna. Centrally located right by **U4 Kettenbrückengasse station**, it’s the perfect meeting point before heading out into your Saturday night. ## 💡 Free Entry – Donations Welcome Comedy should be for everyone. That’s why entry is free! But if you had a great time (and you will 😉), we invite you to drop a donation in the bucket at the end of the show. It’s the best way to support the comedians who made you laugh. ## 🎟️ Audience Rules To keep the show fun and fair for everyone, we ask for a few simple things: * Be on time – comedy waits for no one. * Respect the stage – no talking during sets. * Laugh loud, clap hard – comedians feed off your energy. * No heckling – it never ends well. * Show love with a donation if you laughed. ## 🎉 Why Saturday? Because weekends deserve a big laugh. **Comedy Factory** is the perfect early-evening start to your Saturday – international, experimental, and guaranteed to surprise you. With a new lineup every week, it’s always fresh, always different, always funny. Start your night with us, then take the laughter out into Vienna. #ComedyFactoryVienna #EnglishComedyVienna #ViennaComedy #StandupVienna #ViennaNightlife #ViennaEvents #ComedyVienna #LiveComedyVienna #EnglishOpenMic #StandupComedyVienna #ViennaExpats #ExpatsInVienna #ComedyShowVienna #ViennaLaughs #FunnyInVienna #ComedyClubVienna #ViennaWeekend #SaturdayNightVienna #ViennaFun #ViennaThingsToDo #ComedyLifeVienna #ComedyCommunityVienna #ViennaTourists #InternationalComedy #WildComedyVienna #ExperimentalComedy #ViennaStage #ViennaCulture #ViennaNightOut #LaughsInVienna #ComedyHotspotVienna #ViennaStandupScene #ViennaLaughing #ComedyPubVienna #ViennaSaturday #ViennaLOL #ComedyAddictsVienna #ViennaGiggles #ComedyUndergroundVienna #ViennaHahaha

The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 **Abstract** Web Forms gave .NET developers a powerful abstraction for building reusable UI controls long before design systems were a thing. Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively. This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. We’ll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from server‑driven controls, and why they’re becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether you’re maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, you’ll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standards‑based way. **YouTube Link** [https://youtube.com/live/fD2cYeKp_UU?feature=share](https://youtube.com/live/fD2cYeKp_UU?feature=share)

**Complex Trauma Support Group** Our group is intended for survivors of complex trauma. If you are here, it’s likely that so much of who you are and what you have experienced in this life is actually invisible to most people––to family, society, coworkers, and the people who are around you. We are a peer-led group of survivors creating opportunities for ourselves and others to share our experiences, share support, and build relationships in kind community together. Survivor experiences might include: child sexual abuse, incest, child trafficking, and other experiences of people living with traumatic dissociation and complex PTSD. **What to expect at your first meeting:** Currently, we are offering a bi-monthly in person group at 2:00pm on the first and third Sunday of the month. The only criterion for joining the group is that you are a survivor of trauma wishing to have more kindness in your own life and share kindness with others, and that you agree to practice to group’s relational agreements available for view here: https://www.kindgroups.com/agreements. Joining the group is free of charge. We ask that new people connect with us for 30 minutes on the phone or on zoom before coming to their first group, so that we can determine together that we are a good fit. Our meetings last approximately 90 minutes. Participants are never required to share. You’re also welcome to choose a pseudonym and you will never be asked for private information. You are welcome to leave at any time. The kindness that survivors can share when among others who have survived similar childhood experiences is something we rarely get to experience. Time spent with others who understand even a little bit more about us is a relief. Our hope is to help ourselves and others experience that we are not alone. We wish for our efforts to be a cause of kindness in our own lives and the lives of each other. You can read more about the groups at www.kindgroups.com.

**New Dojo Location!** **Knotty Pine Brewing** 1765 W 3rd Ave, Columbus, OH 43212 We're going to try a new dojo location for a few weeks and see how it works Dojos are informal Python group study sessions where everyone interested in Python gathers to learn about Python, help others with Python, or just hang out. Everyone is welcome from Python beginners to experts. Bringing a laptop is encouraged (we'll have extension cords and power strips). If there's something you want to learn leave a comment on this invite so we can plan ahead. We're looking for topic suggestions and people interested in presenting at our monthly meetings. To this end we've set up a survey form at [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/15eBKF1nQQ2XS5gzD4rvhVRHMBEj7lJtHuA9wXupS3Uc](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/15eBKF1nQQ2XS5gzD4rvhVRHMBEj7lJtHuA9wXupS3Uc)

**First meetup of the Columbus AI Engineering group.** We’ll kick things off with a practical, beginner-friendly discussion on: **How LLMs like ChatGPT actually work — and how to build real applications with them.** We’ll cover: * what’s actually happening under the hood (at a high level) * why LLMs behave the way they do (hallucinations, prompt sensitivity, etc.) * how people are building real systems with them today * where things break in practice This will be a **short, informal talk (\~15–20 min)** followed by open discussion and Q&A. Whether you’re an engineer, builder, or just curious about how modern AI systems work, you’re welcome to join. No slides, no fluff — just real conversation about real systems. We’ll hang out afterward and get to know each other.

The Fellowship of the Star Schema: Transforming OLTP Data for Power BI One does not simply build reports on OLTP data. Join us on an epic journey from the depths of raw, normalized tables to the shining halls of a well-modeled star schema fit for Power BI greatness. We will demystify the differences between OLTP and OLAP, walk through star schema vs snowflake (and why Power BI has a clear favorite), and show you the compression differences between normalized and columnar storage that will make you never look at an OLTP model the same way again. We will cover the different types of dimensions, when to use them, and how to handle Slowly Changing Dimensions without losing your mind. You will leave knowing exactly how to identify a bad model, how to convert OLTP data into a clean star schema, and how to forge relationships that rule them all. Whether you are a data wizard, a curious hobbit, or somewhere in between, your models will never be the same.
