Η υπόλοιπη διαδρομή είναι πιο ξεκούραστη σε απόλυτα ομαλό δασικό δρόμο μέσα στο δάσος! ​ ⚠️ Ωστόσο πρέπει να γνωρίζετε ότι υπάρχει ένα μικρό σημείο στο μονοπάτι περίπου 200 μέτρων που είχε καεί στην τελευταία πυρκαγιά.

Hi Agileans, After a little quiet, we are excited to invite the community back for the 67th Agile Greece meetup! Our ambition is not only to learn what’s new from experts, but also to explore together future directions and themes for the upcoming meetups. On **Wed May 20, 18:30-20:00,** at [Yodeck's offices](https://maps.app.goo.gl/z56A5sXTLbwZCfWc7) (Also online: https://tinyurl.com/67th-Agile-Greece-Meetup), our invited speaker, [Roland Flemm](https://www.linkedin.com/in/rolandflemm/), co-author of [Org Topologies](https://www.orgtopologies.com/) and the best-seller [10X ORG, elevating business performance with people and AI.](https://www.orgtopologies.com/10x-org) will be presenting on: **Agile Was Never the Problem — Your Organization … Is** **Talk Summary** It’s the 25th anniversary of Agile! And for more than two decades, organizations have adopted Agile to improve speed, adaptability, and customer value. Teams work in iterations, deliver frequently, and continuously improve. Yet many organizations still struggle to achieve meaningful outcomes at scale. Why? Because we contained Agile to optimize teams — not the system those teams operate in. As organizations scale Agile, they unintentionally increase dependencies, coordination overhead, and fragmentation. The result is predictable: local improvements, but limited global performance. Now, with the rise of AI, this tension becomes even more visible. AI dramatically increases the efficiency of individual teams, but without structural change, it amplifies existing bottlenecks instead of resolving them. Faster parts, slower systems. **What Attendees Will Take Away** • Why Agile success at team level does not translate to organizational performance • How dependencies and fragmented ownership limit flow • Why AI adoption exposes — rather than fixes — these issues • What structural shifts are needed to move beyond team-level optimization • What distinguishes companies (10X ORGs) that scale AI successfully **Venue** Yodeck Offices 1, Likourgou Street, Athina 105 51, 2nd floor Doorbell: 03# Starttech Ventures **Agenda** 18:30, Check In 18:45, “Agile Was Never the Problem — Your Organization … Is”, by Roland Flemm 19:30, Q&A 19:45, Networking with pizza, drinks, and beverages, kindly offered by Yodeck **Speaker Bio** Roland Flemm is CEO of Org Topologies, Co-author of Org Topologies and the 10X ORG book. He has a technical background (20+ years of development and infrastructure). He works as an organization design consultant with a focus on creating adaptive org designs.

Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs. This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context. We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing. **SPEAKER BIO** Mosaic Syed is a Senior Data Engineering and Cloud Solutions Architect with over 20 years of experience designing and delivering scalable, secure, and high-performance data solutions across global enterprise environments. https://www.linkedin.com/in/mosaic-basha-syed-92300856 **CALL FOR SPEAKERS** Learn more: [https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/](https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/) **THANK YOU** *VEEAM* for hosting our meetup!
