**Authentische Ehrlichkeit - Ein Einführungs-Workshop** **💶 Wertschätzungsbeitrag vor Ort: 10-20 Euro (nach eigenen Möglichkeiten)** . \-\-\-\-\-\-\- . Gute Freundschaften leben von Ehrlichkeit & Vertrauen. . Gute Freunde kennen sich, wie ihre linke Westentasche: ihr Leben, ihre Gefühle, ihre Wünsche, ihre Einstellungen, ihre guten & ihre schlechten Seiten. . Gute Freunde können „Ja“ sagen, wenn es ein „Ja“ ist; und sie können „Nein“ sagen, wenn es ein „Nein“ ist. . Gute Freunde können sich sagen, was sie aneinander mögen, und sie können sich sagen, was sie nicht so toll finden. . **🙂 Ehrlichkeit als Basis guter Beziehungen** Ehrlichkeit ist die Basis, damit Nähe und Verbindung entstehen kann. . Sich hinter Masken und (unbewussten) Lügen zu verstecken steht dieser Verbindung im Weg. . Ich glaube alle Beziehungen im Leben werden vertrauensvoller, wenn man miteinander ehrlich ist: Liebensbeziehungen, Arbeitsbeziehungen, Freundschaften und selbst die Beziehung zur Bedienung im Café. . **🍀 Dieser Abend ist eine Einführung in die Ehrlichkeit.** Du erfährst, * warum „Lügen“ mehr ist als das bewusste Verdrehen von Fakten. * wie Du im Leben mehr von dem bekommst, was Du wirklich willst, weil Du Dich auf Ehrlichkeit einlässt. An diesem Abend werden wir in kleinen Schritten Ehrlichkeit üben, auch in unbequemen Situationen. . Du nimmst praktische Ehrlichkeitsübungen mit, die Du sofort im Alltag und in Deinen Freundschaften umsetzen kannst. **🧡 Zwei Worte über Ehrlichkeit** Ich habe mich lange versteckt, wollte meine schwachen Seiten, meine Ängste, Gefühle & Unzufriedenheiten nicht zeigen – immer mit der Angst, abgelehnt zu werden. . Irgendwann stieß ich auf Radikale Ehrlichkeit und buchte ein Wochenendseminar. Es war so befreiend! . Meine Erfahrungen findest Du hier: [https://abenteuer-freundschaft.de/radikale-ehrlichkeit-erfahrungsbericht](https://abenteuer-freundschaft.de/radikale-ehrlichkeit-erfahrungsbericht) . Danach habe ich das 8-Tages-Retreat gemacht, wo es wirklich ans Eingemachte ging. . Ich habe festgestellt, dass Ehrlichkeit meine Beziehungen zu anderen Menschen deutlich verbessert. . Gleichzeitig fühle ich mich deutlich wohler, weil ich mich nicht mehr verstecke. Ich bekomme meine Probleme gelöst (weil ich darüber spreche) und meine Wünsche erfüllt (weil ich darüber spreche). . Dieser Workshop ist mein Einstiegsbeitrag zu mehr Ehrlichkeit in Beziehungen und Freundschaften. . #### 👱🏼‍♂️ Über mich: * Mein Name ist Georg Preller * Ich bin Betreiber der Seite [www.abenteuer-freundschaft.de](http://www.abenteuer-freundschaft.de) * Ausgebildeter NLP-Lehrtrainer ([DVNLP](https://www.dvnlp.de/)) & Coach * Jahrelang selbstständiger Unternehmensberater * Eigene Vita: Von schüchternen Jungen zum fitten Mann * Mehr über mich: [LinkedIn - Georg Preller](https://www.linkedin.com/in/georg-preller/) . **⏰ Die Türen sind offen ab 18:15 Uhr.** Deinen Mantel aufhängen, WC, eine Runde schwatzen und los geht's... . **❓ Darf ich wiederkommen?** Es gibt nur wenige Veranstaltungen, bei denen man wirklich miteinander ins Gespräch kommt. Hier schon, mit Tiefgang. . Einige kommen immer wieder, um die kleinen Übungen nochmals im gesicherten Rahmen auszuprobieren oder aus Neugier, wie andere ihre authentische Ehrlichkeit leben. . Das Workshopprogramm ist auch jedesmal etwas anderes - je nach Gruppe und zunehmenden Erfahrungen. . **🎒 Was bringst Du mit?** * Etwas zu trinken (z.B. deine Wasserflasche, keinen Alkohol!) * Du solltest satt sein und vorher gegessen haben * Bargeld für Wertschätzungbeitrag . **🏠 Der Veranstaltungsraum** * Wir haben einen wunderschönen Raum in Berlin Mitte * saubere Toiletten * Gut mit Öffis zu erreichen nähe Hackescher Markt * Vor Ort ist alles ausgeschildert. . **Wegbeschreibung vor Ort:** * Vor Ort ist alles augeschildert. Vorsichtshalber hier eine Wegbeschreibung * Du klingest bei Hausnummer 28 bei Kieztreff * Du gehst in den Hinterhof und dort nach links * Dort klingelst Du und es wird Dir geöffnet. * Ich freu mich auf Dich! . **👋🏽 Weitere Gruppen & Kontaktmöglichkeiten** . **✈ Telegram-Kanal: [t.me/abenteuer_freundschaft](http://t.me/abenteuer_freundschaft)** für Events, Workshops & Treffpunkte für neue Freundschaften . **✉ Freundschafts-Newsletter:** [https://abenteuer-freundschaft.de/newsletter](https://abenteuer-freundschaft.de/newsletter) Alle 4 Wochen das Neuste aus der Freundschaftsforschung; oft seltener, denn ich schreibe nur dann, wenn es wirklich etwas zu berichten gibt. . **🔥 6 Zutaten großartiger Freundschaften** Seit 2020 forsche ich, was großartige Freundschaften wirklich ausmacht.

Krzysztof Radecki \(CTO\, DAC\.Digital\) & Josua Ziegler \(CEO\, punktum\)*** **Hört auf zu prompten, fangt an zu managen: Agente-basierte KI in großem Maßstab orchestrieren** Wir fragen uns immer wieder, wie wir KI-Agenten leistungsfähiger machen können. Aber wie sieht es damit aus, sie steuerbar zu machen? Dieser Vortrag beginnt mit einem Überblick über die Landschaft der agente-basierten KI – denn bevor man in großem Maßstab orchestrieren kann, muss man wissen, wo man tatsächlich steht und was wirklich benötigt wird. Dann wird es konkret: ein echtes Plattformprojekt, eine kühne stadtweite Vision und ein einziges LLM, das diese nicht umsetzen konnte. Die Lösung war kein besserer Prompt. Es war besseres Management – klar definierte Rollen, eindeutige Aufgabenverteilung und ein System, das weiß, wer verfügbar ist und worin die jeweiligen Stärken liegen. Die Prinzipien, die menschliche Teams in großem Maßstab funktionieren lassen? Sie gelten auch für KI. Und das verändert die Art und Weise, wie man entwickelt. ***2\. Johannes Rave \(Senior Consultant\, InnoQ\)*** **No Constrain, No Gain** *Struktur für den Agent, Klarheit für den Menschen, Flexibilität für das Unternehmen* KI-Codierungsagenten sind bemerkenswert gut darin, Code zu erstellen. Ob dieser Code jedoch die tatsächlichen Anforderungen des Unternehmens widerspiegelt – und ob er auch sechs Monate später noch sinnvoll ist –, ist eine ganz andere Frage. Die Versuchung ist groß, dies als ein Problem der Eingabeaufforderung zu betrachten – dem Agenten mehr Kontext, bessere Anweisungen und klarere Ziele zu geben. Ein oft übersehener Hebel ist die Beachtung der Architektur. Wenn die Domänenlogik ihren eigenen, klar abgegrenzten Platz hat, getrennt von der technischen Infrastruktur um sie herum, geschieht etwas Interessantes: Der Agent bleibt fokussiert, der Mensch kann tatsächlich prüfen, was wichtig ist, und das Ganze bleibt offen für Änderungen, ohne dass eine Neuprogrammierung erforderlich ist. Dieser Vortrag stellt einen Ansatz vor, wie man dorthin gelangt – und wie einige gut platzierte Einschränkungen Ihnen Freiheit verschaffen können. ***3\. Julian Kling \(Data Analytics Consultant\, Infomotion\)*** **Beyond OCR: Intelligent Document Processing with LLMs & Agents** Zwei Jahrzehnte lang bedeutete Dokumentenverarbeitung OCR in Verbindung mit Vorlagen – anfällige Abläufe, die immer dann ins Stocken gerieten, wenn ein Anbieter sein Layout änderte. Große Sprachmodelle (LLMs) und agentische Architekturen schreiben dieses Drehbuch gerade neu. In diesem Vortrag wird anhand realer Kundenanwendungsfälle aus den Bereichen Rechnungswesen, Zeiterfassung und Testberichte erläutert, wie ein moderner Stack für intelligente Dokumentenverarbeitung tatsächlich aussieht. #### 🎯 Für wen ist das Event gedacht: * Unternehmen, die sich mit dem **praktischen Einsatz von KI** beschäftigen * **Innovations**\- und **Digitalverantwortliche** * **Produkt**\- und **Tech**-Teams * **Startups** und **Gründungsteams** im AI-Umfeld * alle die mehr über die Bereichen **Cybersecurity** und **Trustworthy AI** lernen wollen \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **Registrierung nur über Eventbrite:** [👉](https://www.meetup.com/de-DE/berlin-digital-business-network-sibb/events/313709910/?eventOrigin=group_events_list) https://www.eventbrite.de/e/1986992275384👈

A lunchtime conversation with the man who built the world's largest startup accelerator What separates the founders who break through from those who don't? In 2026, the answer increasingly comes down to one thing: how you wield AI. The rules of company-building are being rewritten — faster than most founders realize. AI isn't just a productivity tool anymore. It's compressing the timeline from idea to product, from product to funding, from funding to scale. The founders who understand this shift aren't working harder. They're working smarter, faster, and with leverage that simply didn't exist before. There are few people better positioned to unpack what this means for founders than Adeo Ressi. He's spent over 15 years obsessing over one question: what does it actually take to build a successful startup What You'll Learn - The AI-native founder playbook — How top founders are using AI as a co-founder - From zero to funded, faster - The rewired venture ecosystem — How AI is changing what investors look for and how capital is being deployed - Live Q&A — An open, candid conversation.

These tiny devices are increasingly capable of running models, even for relatively complex use cases, but come without many of the comforts of a classic computer. When deploying a model to a microcontroller, a much deeper understanding of the physical hardware and good knowledge of the various optimization paths that help reduce the resource consumption of an application is needed. We aim to shed some light on how to deploy models to these cheap, ubiquitous and sometimes surprisingly capable little pieces of hardware. ​**In this session, we will cover:** * ​Important differences between a desktop/server and a bare-metal embedded system * ​Quantization for model compression * ​Anatomy of an Embedded Application * ​Embedded ML Inference Engines and how to run them * ​Deploying a model step by step ​**Who is this event for?** This session is targeted at anyone with basic ML knowledge. Experience with C and embedded systems is probably helpful, but not required. We will cover the most important aspects as part of the workshop. **⚡ FINAL REMINDER ⚡** **You MUST register and be approved on Luma to attend.
