Persönlich, inspirierend, humorvoll oder nachdenklich. Jede Rede dauert zwischen 5 und 7 Minuten und ist Teil eines individuellen Lernwegs. ### ☕ Pause Zeit zum Austausch, Durchatmen und Kennenlernen. ### ⚡ Stegreifreden (1–2 Minuten) Hier wird es spontan. Ein Impuls, eine Frage, ein Gedanke. Auch **mutige Gäste** dürfen sich ausprobieren und ganz ungezwungen Bühnenluft schnuppern. ### 📝 Feedbackteil Nun kommt der vielleicht wichtigste Teil des Abends. * **Bewertungsreden** zu den vorbereiteten Reden (je 2–3 Minuten) * Feedback weiterer Rollen wie Zeitnehmer oder Sprachstilbewerter * Ein **Gesamtbewerter**, der den Abend als Ganzes reflektiert Das Feedback ist konstruktiv, konkret und immer wertschätzend. Es zeigt Stärken auf und gibt klare Impulse zur Weiterentwicklung. ### 👋 Verabschiedung Zum Abschluss rundet Alexandra den Abend ab und gibt einen Ausblick auf kommende Treffen. ### 🍽 Danach: Restaurant & Socializing Wer mag, kommt mit ins Restaurant. Dort wird weitergeredet, gelacht, diskutiert und vernetzt. Wenn du lernen willst, klarer zu sprechen, souveräner aufzutreten und deine Botschaften wirkungsvoll zu platzieren, dann komm einfach zum nächsten Clubtreffen. Die Bühne wartet nicht auf Perfektion. Sie belohnt Mut. ✨

​✨ Co-Work & Reset ​From 09:30 to 16:30, we’ll work together in structured focus blocks to help you make real progress. Then instead of jumping straight into the evening we pause. Through a guided session you’ll step out of constant doing mode reconnect with your body and close your day with more clarity and ease. ​🧠 What’s new ​Alongside focused work we’re introducing a guided reset session led by Vikasni Kannan.​ She is a counsellor, parenting coach, and trauma-informed practitioner. Her work focuses on helping people slow down, regulate and reconnect with themselves. 🌿 The Reset ​A 30 to 45 minute guided session to help you: ​• Pause after a full workday • Step out of constant doing mode • Reconnect with your body and emotions • Move into your evening with more clarity and ease ​This is not something you just listen to. You’ll experience it. 🗓 Event details ​Date: 15.04.2026 Time: 09:30 onwards Location: The co-work and guided reset session will be hosted at the same venue Urban Loft. **🧩 Flow of the day** **​09:30 – Arrival and coffee** **10:00 – Introductions and intentions** **10:30 – 13:00 – Deep work** **13:00 – 14:00 – Lunch** **14:00 – 16:00 – Focus block** **16:00 – 16:30 – Reflections** **16:30 onwards – Guided reset session** ⚠️ Important Note ​Spots are intentionally limited to keep the space focused and comfortable.

Hello! I’m organising a coworking + socialising session for all of us who are working on projects (e.g. our own creations, freelance or remote work) but don't feel like sitting alone at home. 🙂 To ensure that we have time for both socialising AND working, we will be using the so-called “Pomodoro” technique: **50 mins deep work** (silent), followed by **10 mins break** to socialise. And then repeat! You are welcome to join whatever your personal background is, and whatever project you are working on. I (the host) speak English and German, so either language is fine. ——————————————————- AGENDA: * **Short Intro** Tell us who you are and share something about what you will be working on today * **Pomodoro Session** \- 3x \(3h\) Each Pomodoro session consists of 50 mins focused “deep work” (no talking, no interruptions, **phones on silent mode**) -> then 10 mins break: a chance to share your progress with others -> Repeat * **15 mins Wrap Up** Celebrate what you achieved and get to know others 😊 ———— The location is **Espresso House near Checkpoint Charlie** (they have multiple outlets - so be sure to go to the correct one!) Wifi + power plugs are available - but best to bring a fully charged laptop, just in case 🙃 You **do not** have to pay anything. But since we are using the café space, it is common courtesy to buy at least one drink (coffee costs roughly **4 Euros**).

In our last sprint, we set up a shared baseline repository featuring a functional "Welcome Agent." We successfully used local shell scripts to build the Docker image, deploy it to GCP, and query the live endpoint. It's a solid foundation, but manually executing deployment scripts from a local machine is a bottleneck for rapid, collaborative development. **The Plan:** This session is about automating our existing cloud deployment. We will take the exact build and deploy steps we currently run locally and translate them into a GitHub Actions workflow. Once our agents are updating automatically on every push to `main`, we will shift focus back to agent behavior. We will build a simple Orchestrator Agent that uses the A2A protocol to dynamically delegate tasks to our cloud-hosted workers. **This is a "Lab" session. We will:** * **Automate the Pipeline:** Convert our local Docker and `gcloud` deployment scripts into a seamless GitHub Action workflow. * **Build the Orchestrator:** Develop a lightweight central agent designed to interpret a user prompt and route sub-tasks to our deployed workers. * **Live Multi-Agent Communication:** Establish an active dialogue over the A2A protocol between your Orchestrator and your worker agents. **The Format:** We run our sessions like an anthology series: **Every meetup is a standalone sprint.** While we often build on previous results, each session provides a complete experience and remains fully accessible to first-time attendees. This is a high-density micro-meetup limited to 6 seats. *(Newcomers: We will provide the fully prepped template repository so you can jump straight into the automation phase!)* **What you'll build** By the end of the session, you'll have: 1. **A Repeatable CI/CD Pipeline:** A set-and-forget GitHub Action that handles the GCP deployment automatically on every commit, replacing the need for local scripts. 2. **An Orchestrator Agent:** A coordinator capable of breaking down requests and utilizing external agent tools via A2A. 3. **A Live Multi-Agent Setup:** A functioning environment where your Orchestrator successfully communicates with and aggregates results from your automated cloud workers. **Schedule (Saturday, 10:00 - 13:00 CEST)** * **10:00:** Quick round of introductions. * **10:15:** Intro session: Migrating local scripts to GitHub Actions & Orchestrator routing patterns. * **10:30:** Build time: CI/CD automation & building the Orchestrator. * **12:00:** Live demos + technical teardown. * **12:45:** Wrap-up + takeaways. **Prerequisites** * **Accounts:** A Google Account (with GCP access\*) and a GitHub Account (for Actions). * **Laptop with dev setup:** Docker and Git installed and working. * **Access to an LLM API:** (Gemini, Claude, OpenAI, etc.). * **Mindset:** This is a lab for engineers, not a tutorial. We learn by building, breaking, and iterating. **Logistics** * **Location:** We meet at my office in the **Grunewald area** near Martin-Luther-Krankenhaus. The exact address will be shared privately with attendees to maintain privacy. * **Capacity:** Limited to 6 seats. \* You currently get $300 in free credits when you sign up with GCP, which is plenty for what we're trying to do. We can give some initial pointers for how to get started during the meeting, but won't have time to do a full GCP setup with you.

**Caller: Richard Ades** **Band: The McKenzies** **Clinton Heights Lutheran Church** **15 Clinton Heights Ave, Columbus, OH 43202** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot. For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/) Please bring your own refillable water bottle.

**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge. **Abstract** GitHub Copilot is powerful, but what if you could scale from a solo AI assistant to an entire team of specialized agents working in parallel? This session introduces Squad: an open-source framework for multi-agent orchestration that lets you define teams of AI agents with specific roles, responsibilities, and expertise. We'll progress from Copilot basics to the Copilot CLI, explore how Agents add autonomy, and see how Instructions and Skills let you customize agent behavior. Then, the climax: a live demo where a Squad team of 3 agents (Lead, Developer, Tester) stands up and builds a working application in real-time, showcasing true multi-agent collaboration. Whether you're new to AI or exploring how to scale your use of Copilot, this session will show you what's possible when agents work as a team. **YouTube Link** TBD

Columbus Code & Coffee is an inclusive, informal co-working session. People of all skill levels attend, and we love it that way. Many people (optionally) bring projects to work on, and many other people (optionally) socialize the entire time. It's entirely up to you! **What to Expect at the Intro Circle** \~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~ Near the beginning of the event (1:30 pm), we do a standup: * Organizer announcements, updates, and logistics Round 1 - (7 secs max): * Your name * What you're working on * What you can help others with Round 2: * Community events you wanna plug. If none, that's cool too. Round 3: * Job opportunities you're hiring for OR announce that you are looking for one. If none, that's cool. After the introduction circle, everything is self-organized! Feel free to work alone, pair up, attend one of our workshops/presentations, or mingle!

A WiA Collective Wisdom Exchange At the start of this year, we gathered to look back, set intentions, and imagine the next chapter. This is the follow-up. Not a check-in. Not a progress report. A small, facilitated circle to reconnect with what you said mattered — and honestly explore what’s actually happening now. Together, we’ll explore: • What you intended at the start of this year - and what that looks like three months in • What’s surprised you, supported you, or shifted • What the next chapter needs now that you know what you know If you were at our January gathering, bring whatever you made or wrote — your word, your artifact, your intention. We’ll look at it with fresh eyes. If this is your first time, you belong here too. You’ll start where we all started: with what’s true right now. Optional art materials will be available for anyone who wants to reflect creatively alongside conversation. If you brought something home from January, you’re warmly invited to bring it back. The intention is the same as always: everyone leaves feeling more clear, more connected, and a little lighter. Space is intentionally limited to keep the experience intimate. What to Expect • A small, welcoming circle (not a large meetup) • Structured conversation so everyone has space to speak • Reflection, listening, and lived experience — not advice-giving • Optional creative reflection alongside conversation • A calm, supportive environment Who This Is For Women and underrepresented folks working in or around agile, product, technology, leadership, or organizational change — especially those looking for honest conversation and community beyond frameworks and buzzwords. Good to Know • No preparation required • If you attended in January, we invite you to bring anything you created or wrote (or something that represents your intention at the start of the year) - it’s optional but invited • Participation is invitational; listening is always welcome • Creative activities are optional
