Paris. Blurred Lines: Evolution of Product and Design with AI
**Registrations are closed.**
**IMPORTANT**: to participate in the event, please register on Lu.ma – https://luma.com/83i9qgsy
Hosted by **[Projector Global Community](https://www.linkedin.com/company/projector-global-community/?utm_source=luma), Le Comptoir Avalon - Paris and supported by [AI Collective Paris](https://www.aicollective.com/chapters/paris?utm_source=luma)**, this session explores how AI is reshaping the day-to-day reality of Product Managers and Designers—and what this means for roles, ownership, and collaboration inside modern product teams.
Who owns discovery when AI can generate insights?
Who defines the solution when design tools can prototype instantly?
What even distinguishes product thinking from design thinking anymore?
You’ll hear from:
* \*\*[Vaska Vlahova](https://www.linkedin.com/in/vlahova/?utm_source=luma)\*\*, Staff Product Designer at [Qonto](https://qonto.com/en?utm_source=luma)
* \*\*[Florian Herlicq](https://www.linkedin.com/in/florianherlicq/?utm_source=luma)\*\*, Lead Product Manager at [Orus](https://www.orus.eu/?utm_source=luma)
* \*\*[Justine Potin](https://www.linkedin.com/in/justine-potin-1ab9a437/?utm_source=luma)\*\*, Product Manager at [Finary](https://finary.com/en?utm_source=luma)
**Moderated by:**
* \*\*[Kate Mas](https://www.linkedin.com/in/kate-mas/?skipRedirect=true&utm_source=luma),\*\* Career Strategist at [messy careers](https://katemas.me/?utm_source=luma) (ex-Qonto, ex-Preply) — guiding the discussion on blurred boundaries and future-ready skills in product and design
This isn’t a “Product Manager vs Designer” debate. It’s a conversation about what happens when traditional role boundaries stop making sense.
**What we’ll explore:**
* Where Product Manager and Design responsibilities are already merging
* How AI is changing product discovery, decision-making, and execution
* The risks of blurred ownership (and how to avoid them)
* What skills will actually matter going forward
* How to operate effectively in a world where roles are less defined
Expect a candid, practical discussion—less theory, more real-world shifts you’re likely already feeling.
Come if you’re a Product Manager, Designer, or product leader trying to make sense of your role in this transition—and what to do about it.
**A friendly note:** Guests are encouraged to buy a drink to support our hosts **Le Comptoir Avalon**.

Eros Reading Circle: Mesoamerican Sexual Practices & The 18 Intimate Archetypes
Would you like to know more about the tantric approach and add more depth to your sexual life but don’t know where to start?
Would you like to deepen the relationship with yourself or with your partner?
Or maybe you just want to be able to talk about these topics openly with like-minded people?
I created Eros Reading Circle because I believe erotica nowadays is very misunderstood. Fast satisfaction is the preferred way on societal level. There are plenty of negative emotions – shame, guilt, low self worth – attached to the topic of pleasure in the collective and also on the individual level.
The past few years I dedicated to self-exploration and the broadening of my horizon when it comes to depths of pleasure and living the tantric approach.
We gather every three weeks in a cozy tearoom in the heart of Prague (near I.P. Pavlova).
You don’t need to join every time. You can attend only one session or more – each time we will cover a different topic.
We don’t read full books. When you book your spot, you will receive an email with the text for the upcoming circle and 2-3 reflection prompts.
We usually cover one chapter, 10 to 30 pages (written in English). You are asked to read the chapter before the session.
All genders, singles and couples are welcome. Our readings explore erotica, pleasure, tantra, ecstasy, desire and the polarity of masculine and feminine energies. Some sessions focus on men’s sexuality, others on women’s, and some on pleasure as a whole.
During each circle, we begin with a short grounding practice, share what resonated or didn’t, engage in discussion and end with a closing reflection.
Eros Reading Circle is for you:
- If you are desiring to have a more conscious sexual life
- If you want to deepen your relationship to self (and to your partner)
- If you would love to attract a partner who complements you
- If you would like to connect and exchange ideas with like-minded people
- If you want to experiment with new practices, try new things
- If you would like to leave behind negative imprints attached to your sexuality
- If you are interested to learn about pleasure from a more spiritual or philosophical aspect
- If you have wondered what tantra is and how could you apply it in your own life
- If you would love to join a circle of book lovers but can’t commit to reading long books
When? 15th April, 19.00-21.30
Where? Čajovna Šamanka
How much does it cost? 350 CZK
Facebook event link:

https://buy.stripe.com/3cI3cuelraocf8T0rP5Ne07
If you cancel with more than 24 hours’ notice, you can reschedule within three months.
Our topic will be: The Sexual Practices of Quodoushka - The teachings of the Nagual tribe.
We will explore also the 9 female and 9 male genital anatomy types.
I look forward to welcoming you in the circle <3

Join us for an evening designed mostly for expats, starting with a short founder talk on the story behind Finaram and why simplifying mortgages for foreigners matters today.

**Why attend:**
* Get a realistic view of the Czech property market in 2026
* Understand the full buying process step by step
* Learn how to avoid common mistakes when dealing with agents
* Ask your questions directly to experienced professionals

**About the Speakers**
**Sergei Kavaleryan** is the founder of Finaram, an online mortgage guidance platform built for professionals and expats in the Czech Republic. He created Finaram after seeing how complex and unclear the mortgage process can be, especially for foreigners navigating a new financial system. Before building Finaram, he explored the market from both a user and analytical perspective, identifying key gaps in transparency, accessibility, and user experience.
Finaram combines data-driven tools with guidance from licensed advisors to help clients understand their options, estimate affordability, and move through the mortgage process with clarity and structure. His focus is on simplifying decision-making and helping people approach property financing in the Czech Republic with confidence.
**Robin Petrásek** is the founder of Expats Finance, a mortgage advisory firm focused exclusively on expats in the Czech Republic. With over 16 years of experience in banking and finance, and more than a decade specializing in expat clients, he has personally helped over 400 foreign buyers successfully secure property financing. His team has arranged more than 2.5 billion CZK in mortgages, with a 100% success rate for clients who moved forward with a purchase.
Robin focuses on making complex mortgage rules clear and helping expats navigate the Czech system with confidence. He collaborates with Finaram as a trusted mortgage advisor for expat clients.

The Dvorecký Bridge Walk
PLEASE NOTE: There is a fee 150 CZK for this event => See more details below.
\*\*\*\*\*
Hello Discoverers!
Let’s be one of the first walkers crossing the Vltava on the brand new **Dvorecký bridge** connecting Podolí and Smíchov.
Thanks to this new river crossing, we can walk a very interesting, previously impossible route between the Pankrác plain and the Dívčí hrady plateau.
The route is packed with many places of interest and fantastic views of Prague from both river banks!
We will admire up close the modern high rise buildings at Pankrác as well as hike across a steppe with wild horses.
DIFFICULTY: Medium
Around 9 km/6 miles, on paved streets and unpaved trails. In total about 150 meters / 500 ft of elevation gain.
Rated “medium” because of a steep footpath up to Dívčí hrady. The rest is “easy to medium”.
MEETING POINT
We will meet at **10:00** on a small plaza in front of the main entrance to the Arkády Pankrác Shopping Centre. It is just outside of the E1 exit from the Pankrác Metro C station.
**Google Map**: [https://maps.app.goo.gl/3kLpzWYK9qadc8zSA](https://maps.app.goo.gl/3kLpzWYK9qadc8zSA)
If you can not find us call me at +420 739 370 212.
We should complete the route by 14:00. The end point will be near “Jinonice” Metro B station.
As always, I’m going to book a restaurant for a well-deserved lunch after the walk.

Contra dance with Big Scioty May 2 - Clinton Heights Lutheran church
**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.
What If Your AI Could Be a Team? - Chad Green
**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.

Free in-person event: Take Control of Your Mental Health
It’s time to take control of your mental health. How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself.
Have you ever suffered from a traumatic experience, a deep loss or been through a painful breakup? Has your ability to communicate suffered as a result? And after that, even though you "moved on" did you find that things were never quite the same? Have you ever looked at childhood photos, or reminisced your early life and wondered where that happiness and spark went?
Are your emotions out of your own control? Have you ever felt, even if you aren’t aware of it, that possibly you are getting in your own way of your happiness and success? How does this affect your self-confidence?
Find out what is at the root of all stress, anxiety, depression and self-doubt. Find out how and why you hold yourself back from achieving your goals and having the life you have dreamed of. As soon as you learn what is at the root of these unwanted conditions, you’ll see it is something you can DO something about. You will not be labeled or categorized at this MeetUp.
Prompt vs. Paintbrush
AI is changing how art is made. But when does it stop being your work and start being the machine’s?
This month we're going to be doing a panel with with digital image, music, and written word artists, talking about at what point, while using AI in the creation process, does the work become not the artist creation?
We encourage audience participation during this event that will be moderated by Chris Slee.
Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.

Whether it was yesterday, last week or a year ago, traumatic experiences - a loss of a loved one, losing a job, a breakup - can leave you scarred. You talk about it and feel a little better, but it never goes away. After you hang up the phone, it's still there; the sadness, the cloud, the over-thinking, the worry, the guilt. You try to focus, but you're blocked. You try to look forward into new experiences, new relationships but a cloud is hanging over you, casting a shadow on what you once considered a bright, cheerful future.
What happened to your courage? Your strength of character? You're 'why not' attitude? Whoever said 'time heals' must have had a special time machine, because after weeks, months, years, you're wondering - when exactly does that kick in? Sometimes it seems like drinking or drugs are the way to go. But they wear off, and now the problem is still there with added side effects from the drugs.
At this free local Meetup event we will talk about:
* What causes grief, anxiety and depression to become chronic.
* Is it possible to regain your joy and happiness even after traumatic experiences?
* How to break away from negativity and focus on the future
* What are the steps to take to get control of your mind and your emotions?
Learn about a safe, gentle, do-it-yourself counseling that can be done in the comfort of your own home.
Let's explore safe, effective solutions for healing from traumatic experiences.
