OSTELLO BELLO OLYMPIC GAMES
**Are you ready for the Milano–Cortina Winter Olympics? We’re not.**
**That’s why we’ve created our very own Ostello Bello "Olympic" Games: a glorious display of questionable athletic skills and high-level nonsense.**
While the "other" guys are busy with the official **Milano-Cortina 2026** ceremonies, we’re bringing the real "action" to the streets of Milan. From February 6th, we aren't gathering to break world records; we’re gathering to break the laws of physics.
This isn’t about the podium; it’s about the survival of the chillest. Get your "winter" gear ready, because we’re about to prove that being an elite athlete is 10% talent and 90% just showing up for the vibes.
**The Incentive:** Every participant gets a **shot**. The "legends" who actually win take home an **Ostello Bello T-shirt or a Drink**.
## The Disciplines: Official "Technical" Standards
Every day from **7 PM to 9 PM**, our "athletes" will face a rotating schedule of these elite winter disciplines:
### 1\. Air Hockey: The Wrist\-Flick Battle
A high-speed duel where the only thing frozen is your gaze on the puck.
* **The Goal:** Smash the plastic disc into the hole.
* **Requirement:** Move your hand faster than your brain can process and celebrate every point like you’ve just secured a gold medal.
### 2\. Boxing\-Glove Beer Pong: The Clumsy Champion Challenge
We took a classic and made it impossible by adding the "Yeti factor."
* **The Twist:** You have to play wearing massive, padded boxing gloves.
* **The Challenge:** Gripping a tiny ball with giant hands is the ultimate test of patience. Success here is statistically unlikely and basically a miracle.
### 3\. DIY Curling: The Professional Slide
The most serious-looking sport in our program. We’ve replaced expensive stones with pots and ice with felt pads, but the tension is real.
* **The Setup:** A "House" (target) taped on the floor and a "Hog Line" for the release.
* **The Action:** Launch the pot while your teammates run alongside it with brooms, screaming *"Hurry! Hard!"* just like in the real tournaments.
* **The Score:** Closest pot to the center wins. Clean floors are a bonus.
### BONUS DAY: The "Wildcard" Game
The discipline is a mystery. Our local legends will choose the challenge. Expect the unexpected: and probably more shots.
**AND REPEAT.**
**See you at the starting line (the bar) on the 6th. May the chillest win.**

AWS Well-Architected User Group Meetup #5
Costruire sistemi moderni non significa solo scegliere le tecnologie giuste, ma avere il coraggio di ripensare architetture, processi e persino il nostro modo di lavorare.
In questo quinto meetup dell’AWS Well-Architected User Group Italy esploreremo **due storie** molto diverse, ma unite da un filo comune: la **trasformazione**.
Da un lato, l’evoluzione di un sistema complesso e maturo verso un’**architettura event-driven** capace di alimentare un social feed in tempo reale; dall’altro, sei mesi di sviluppo immersivo che raccontano come nuove **tecnologie possano cambiare** non solo il codice, ma anche **le persone** che lo scrivono.
Al termine dei talk, **networking e aperitivo 🍕 offerto dallo User Group.**
**TheFork Feed: costruire un social engine**
Giovanni Laganà \- Fullstack Software Engineer II @ TheFork \| Author @ thelinkedinengineer\.com
Ogni social network possiede un Feed, ma implementarne uno ‘from scratch’ su un’architettura matura con 20 anni di storico dati è una sfida ingegneristica complessa. Come si aggregano efficientemente attività distribuite su domini di business separati, gestendo al contempo il flusso di dati in tempo reale?
In questo talk, Giovanni Laganà — Software Engineer in TheFork — analizzerà le decisioni architetturali critiche dietro il ‘TheFork Feed’ lanciato a luglio 2025. Esploreremo il passaggio da logiche sincrone a pattern Event-Driven e le strategie adottate per garantire performance e coerenza in un ecosistema a microservizi.
**Sei mesi di sviluppo immersivo con Kiro : Coraggio, tecnologia e umanità**
Massimo De Giorgio - Innovation Analyst @ Tabata
Massimo De Giorgio e il suo team vivono da sei mesi un’esperienza completamente immersiva nello sviluppo con Kiro. In questo speech, Massimo condividerà il proprio percorso attraverso le diverse prospettive di imprenditore, project manager e sviluppatore, offrendo una visione concreta e multidimensionale dell’adozione di questa tecnologia.
Sarà un’occasione per raccontare non solo i risultati nei processi di coding, ma anche la passione, le emozioni e i timori che accompagnano quello che Werner Vogels definisce un nuovo “Rinascimento”: una trasformazione tecnologica e umana che interpella chi ha avuto il coraggio di intraprendere un profondo cambiamento professionale e personale.
**📍 Location**
**TheFork – Palazzo dell’Informazione**
Piazza Cavour, 5° piano – **Milano**

Aperitivo and Hang-out in English
Hello everybody,
I usually look for events on Saturdays but I can hardly ever find any, so I asked myself, "Why don't I organise one ?" The idea is to meet at **Next Bar in Via Crema 7** (Very close to P.ta Romana underground station / yellow line) at **18:00** and hang out there for some time. You can also enjoy drinks and eat for 13 Euros (p.s. the buffet is mind-blowing).
Guests are required to buy their first drink upon entry.
I kindly encourage you to RSVP during the week if you can.
I really hope to meet you on Saturday! Don't worry if you can't see many people who've RSVPed, the event is advertised on other platforms, so there will be plenty of people to mingle with.
When you get there ask for **Riccardo**.
Feel free to WhatsApp me at **+39 334 283 1963**
During the event, you'll have the opportunity to join our WhatsApp group by scanning QR codes displayed on the tables to stay in touch.
Looking forward to a great time together!
Best regards,
Riccardo

## 🎤 The Talks
## 1️⃣An Open Source and Sovereign Architecture for Data, ML and AI
**Speaker:** Riccardo Lorenzon (Head of Data @ iliad Italia)
Iliad Group invests billions in sovereign AI ecosystems, open-source tech, and low-carbon data centers to reduce reliance on non-European providers and bolster Europe's technological autonomy. True to Iliad Group's 'make-over-buy' culture of full control, iliad Italia is building a data architecture in a hybrid on-prem and Scaleway (Iliad Group cloud) setup, combining open-source tech and managed services.
This powers data management, self-service analytics, and ML/AI use cases for our 12m+ user base and 1000+ employees. During this speech, we will guide you through the tech journeys we have built and are building.
**About the Speaker:**
Riccardo Lorenzon serves as Head of Data at iliad Italia, where he works on evolving the data function into a modern setup covering the full data value chain from sources to business decisions. He previously led data teams at Vedrai, an AI startup, and Whirlpool EMEA, handling projects in analytics, machine learning, and cloud platforms across areas like consumer service, supply chain, and sales. With a Master’s in Mathematical Engineering from Politecnico di Milano and studies at ETH Zürich, he combines a hands-on approach to delivery with a strong focus on strategic value for the business.
***
## 2️⃣ Building the Klarna Foundation Model: A Unified Transformer for Customer Behavior Modeling at Scale
**Speaker:** Valeria Verzi (Principal Data Scientist @ Klarna), Sudhakar Periyasamy, Goran Dizdarevic
In this session, we introduce Klarna’s Foundation Model (KFM): a lightweight Transformer trained on more than 130 million customer events to learn a unified representation of customer behavior. Rather than building separate, task-specific models, KFM operates as a common sequence-modeling backbone that encodes behavioral patterns across different touchpoints of a customer’s interaction history with Klarna.
We will walk through the technical design of the system, including event tokenization, sequence construction, and Transformer architecture, as well as how the learned embeddings are exposed as a shared layer for multiple downstream use cases.
Attendees will gain a concrete understanding of how foundation models can be applied to behavioral sequence data in fintech, and how a single model can serve as a reusable, extensible representation layer across heterogeneous modeling tasks.
**About the Speaker:**
Valeria Verzi is a Principal AI Scientist at Klarna, where she leads the development of next-generation models, from foundation models to advanced deep learning or agentic systems. She has nearly a decade of experience applying machine learning to high-stakes decisioning across fintech and insurance. Before her current role, Valeria served as Klarna’s Head of Data Science for Fraud Prevention. Prior to Klarna, she held senior data science roles at Generali and NTT Data. Valeria holds a Master’s degree in Computer Science Engineering from Politecnico di Milano.
