This workshop is perfect for anyone who loves creativity, decoration, and hands-on crafting. During the workshop, you can decorate a variety of items such as picture frames, table mirrors, hand mirror, pencil cases, jewelry box, or small accessories. You choose the object, the color of the decoden cream, and your favorite charms to match your personal style. Whether you prefer a cute, bold, or minimal look, every piece becomes a one-of-a-kind creation. The workshop is beginner-friendly and no prior experience is required. You will be guided step by step through the entire process, from applying the decoden cream to placing the charms securely. Tips and tricks will be shared to help you create a balanced and beautiful design. Individual support is available throughout the session, so you can work at your own pace. **You can come any time between 15:30 and 20:00 (please message me if you are coming after 15:30)**. Each item takes approximately **60 minutes** to complete (**15–30 minutes if you are fast)**, depending on the level of detail. The **price starts at 26 CHF per item**, which includes **1 color of decoden cream** and **20 charms**. All materials are provided, so you can simply show up and start creating. If you want to decorate a specific item, you can also bring it with you. Please note that the decoden glue needs time to dry. It fully cures overnight. You may leave your finished piece at the studio for safe drying and collect it later, or carefully take it home with you. The Decoden Workshop is suitable for **children and adults**, making it a fun activity to enjoy solo, with friends, or as a creative break. If you love crafting cute, personalized accessories, this workshop is the perfect place to start.

This group will have **two or three instructors**, making it possible to split the group depending on what interests and progress level each student has. Freestyle (tricks, jumps, rails, park) learned correctly minimizes risk, and avoids a lot of the worst falls early on if you get the right information and have someone to catch you on your first attempts. In this group we welcome people from different stages of progression, and focus on specific fundamentals starting from edge control and switch riding (For those less experienced with it) up to rails and boxes in the park (for those less experienced in park). This is a 'more feedback' style of group, where things will go slower so that you can systematically repeat the fundamentals. You'll have the option to practice either in the park or on the slopes. To make the most of it, please enjoy the group dynamic where we stay close together, and choose certain adaptations on the fundamentals to practice together. ### Prerequisites * At a minimum, you should at least be comfortable with 'breaking' turns (i.e. turning then slowing down, then the next turn and slowing down again, and so on). * To participate in park, you should have solid edge control (for example, be able to handle flat sections by holding an edge).

I love my job and one of the main things I do is help customers get going with any of the data technologies at Microsoft. Right now there are a lot of my customers asking about Microsoft Fabric. It's hard to weave across all the shiny new options across the Fabric landscape, let alone figure out where it fits into your organization. In this session we'll focus on answering one question - how can I get data into Fabric? We'll talk through the "it depends" options and see some of the options in live demos.

### Tools in your AI's Toolbox : An introduction to MCP Servers The generative AI revolution has unlocked unprecedented capabilities, but the next frontier is agency: empowering models to interact with, query, and act upon the world. The current challenge is the “N x M integration problem,” where every AI model requires a custom, brittle integration for each external tool or data source. This approach simply doesn’t scale. How can we give an AI access to our sales leads, code repositories, or IoT devices in a standardized, secure, and reusable way? This session introduces Anthropic’s Model Context Protocol (MCP), the open-source framework designed to solve this challenge and become the universal connector—the USB-C port—for AI. MCP standardizes how AI models discover and use external tools, moving beyond simple function-calling to a robust, client-server architecture. We will dive into how this open protocol is creating a new ecosystem for building powerful, context-aware AI agents. Join this session for a developer-focused introduction where you will learn how to: Understand the core concepts of the open-source Model Context Protocol and its architecture. Utilize pre-built, open-source MCP servers to instantly connect AI to tools like Git, Slack, and databases. Build a custom MCP server to securely expose your own proprietary data and APIs as tools for any compliant AI. Move beyond bespoke integrations and contribute to a standardized, collaborative, and open ecosystem. Stop building one-off connectors and start building intelligent agents. This session will give you the practical knowledge to leverage MCP and create the next generation of AI that doesn’t just talk, but does.
