Tervetuloa **PowerUp! Live Meetup** tapahtumaan kuulemaan Power Platform -aiheisia esityksiä ja verkostoitumaan. Tapahtuman mahdollistaa [Fellowmind](https://www.fellowmind.com/fi-fi/) ja se järjestetään Helsingissä osoitteessa Takkatie 1, 00370 Helsinki. Rekisteröidy tapahtumaan ja muista kutsua kaverisi myös mukaan. Tapahtumassa on tarjolla mielenkiintoisia esityksiä ja keskustelua Power Platformiin liittyen. **Aikataulu (16:10 - 20:00)** 16:30 - 17:00 - Ovet auki 17:00 - 17:05 - PowerUp! intro 17:05 - 17:20 - Tervetulo-sanat **Fellowmindilta** 17.30 - 18.00 - **Sessio:** User defined functions: Yksi funktio, monta käyttöä, **Hilla Mäntyomena** 18.20 - 18.50 - **Sessio:** Mitä Microsoft Agent 365 tarkoittaa Power Platform -ylläpitäjälle?, **Mikko Koskinen,** Forward Forever 19.00 - 19.30 - **Sessio**: Power Platform + AI käytännössä: agentit Teamsissa ja täsmäytysautomaatio ostoon, **Miika Tekoniemi**, Fellowmind 19:30 - 20:00 - Verkostoitumista ja avointa keskustelua **User defined functions: Yksi funktio, monta käyttöä** Hilla Mäntyomena, Sulava Onko Power Apps -sovelluksesi täynnä toistuvaa logiikkaa eri kontrolleissa? User Defined Functions tarjoaa siistin ratkaisun. ——————————————————— **Mitä Microsoft Agent 365 tarkoittaa Power Platform -ylläpitäjälle?** Mikko Koskinen, Forward Forever Microsoft tuo agenttien hallintaan uuden kontrollitason: Agent 365, Entra Agent ID ja Azure AI Foundryn control plane muuttavat sitä, miten AI-agentteja tunnistetaan, hallitaan ja suojataan koko tenantin laajuisesti. Power Platform -ylläpitäjät ovat tottuneet hallitsemaan Copilot Studio -agentteja ympäristöstrategian, DLP-käytäntöjen ja roolien avulla. Uudet agenttikontrollit laajentavat näkökulmaa merkittävästi: agentit eivät ole enää vain Power Platformin sisäisiä kohteita, vaan organisaationlaajuisia identiteettejä ja toimijoita, jotka näkyvät Entra ID:ssä, Purview’ssa, Defenderissä ja Azure Foundryssa. Tässä sessiossa käydään läpi Microsoft Agent 365 -konseptin keskeiset ominaisuudet ja se, mitä ne tarkoittavat käytännössä erityisesti Power Platform -hallinnasta vastaaville henkilöille. Sessiossa puretaan konkreettisesti: * Miten Agent 365 toimii keskitettynä agenttirekisterinä ja näkyvyytenä koko organisaation agentteihin * Mitä Entra Agent ID tarkoittaa agenttien identiteetin, omistajuuden ja elinkaaren hallinnassa * Mitä Power Platform -hallinnassa tulee ymmärtää Azure AI Foundry Control Planesta ja hybridien low-code / pro-code -agenttien hallinnasta * Miten nykyisiä prosesseja (onboarding, hyväksyntä, valvonta, incident response, poistaminen) tulee päivittää agenttien skaalautuessa * Miten Purview ja Defender laajentavat data- ja tietoturvakontrolleja agenttien toimintaan Esityksen jälkeen ymmärrät paremmin, miksi perinteinen Power Platform -governance ei enää yksin riitä ja mitä konkreettisia muutoksia omaan hallintamalliin on syytä tehdä agenttien yleistyessä. \*\*\* Haluatko puhujaksi PowerUp!

Welcome to the **Vibe Design Hackathon**, hosted by **JCI Finland** and **MOW** in Helsinki! **Who is this event for?** This event is for all design-minded people - but you don’t need to be a designer to join. We’ll explore how AI tools can be used as part of the design process, and we encourage you to try out tools and workflows that are new to you. The goal is to learn and network as much as it is to build. We’ll work in small teams formed on-site. You can propose an idea (please think in advance), and we’ll select a set of ideas to build together at the start of the evening. Try to frame your idea as a **micro-SaaS / digital product** — something a small team could prototype and potentially turn into a lightweight product in two hours. **What to bring** * A working laptop * Any AI tool access/licenses you want to use * A flexible attitude and team spirit **We offer** * Workspace, Wi-Fi, and facilitation * Snacks & drinks **Schedule** 17:00 Doors open 17:15 Opening words (HNKK & MOW) 17:30 Selecting ideas + forming teams 17:45 Vibe design starts 18:45 Halfway checkpoint 19:45 Pitching results 20:00 Winners / shout-outs Later Afterparty at Kalle Limited to 30 participants — sign up early to secure your spot! **About us** Vibe Coding Finland is a community for developers, designers, business professionals and tech enthusiasts who love to vibe code, learn, and connect in a relaxed and inspiring atmosphere. Whether you’re a seasoned professional or just starting your coding journey, you’ll find good company, meaningful discussions, and hands-on sessions to boost your skills and creativity. Our meetups feature a mix of talks, coding sessions, project showcases, and networking — all centered around building great vibes and a supportive tech community in Finland.

Pay the **5 € board gaming fee** to the bar at the counter when you arrive. You must be at least 18 years old to enter [Arkade](https://www.arkade.fi/). We play in English and the game rules are taught before starting play, unless everyone is already familiar with the game. No previous experience with board gaming required. Despite our RSVP numbers here on Meetup, we almost always have at least 20 people participating weekly. The venue has a great board game library, the host and other players usually bring their own games too: our selection varies weekly. We're a very casual group so you're welcome to arrive early or late and join whatever game is starting up, there is no attendance tracking, or welcoming process. The bar has alcoholic drinks, mocktails, and soft drinks available as well as some snack foods. They've been okay with people ordering food to the bar with meal delivery services. If you are feeling sick, please stay home.

*Denim Cheers offers creative workshops designed to help you slow down, breathe, and reconnect with your creativity.

We believe that taking time to create, share, and recharge is the ultimate form of self-care.*

Money is everywhere — shaping our choices, relationships, ambitions, and fears. But beneath the spreadsheets and salaries lie deeper questions: Is money just a neutral tool — or something that quietly governs our lives? In this meetup, we explore the philosophical foundations of money and finance — not how to make it, but what it *means*. Discussion avenues may include: * Is money a shared fiction — and if so, why does it have such real power? * Is debt morally permissible — or inherently problematic? * Do we have obligations beyond what contracts specify? * Is lending cooperation… or domination? * Can owing money change what we owe as persons? * Is the desire for wealth a natural motivation — or a corrupting force? * Is the love of money truly the root of all evil? * Can a financial system be morally neutral? * Is inequality a feature of freedom — or a failure of justice? * Does money measure value — or redefine it? * Can everything legitimately be turned into something for sale? We’ll ask whether financial life is merely practical — or fundamentally ethical. No background in economics or philosophy required — only curiosity and a willingness to question the assumptions we live by. **Description by ChatGPT**

**15:30 to 17:30 - Jam Session Part 1** We will play a range of songs which everyone can join in with. The second part of this session often has a theme around an artists, genre or season. Each song has an instrumental section, and we encourage people to improvise, harmonise or just to play it as they feel it. We put the words and chords on the TV screens and we start playing together. **17:30 to 18:00 - Food Break** Grab something from the menu, chat to your fellow players, meet new people. Look through the song book. Start playing random stuff. **18:00 to 20:00 - Jam Session Part 2** We will play some more advanced songs. The last part of the session is requests from the jam group. Come and join us for a play-a-long jam. We will be based in the cellar bar at Iguana on Mannerheimintie. We keep it simple ... we put the words and chords on laptop. Please bring a tablet if you have one so you can also access the songbook at ukejam.online ... or you can use one of our TV screens we will have dotted around the place. We will have a limited number of spare ukuleles and guitars. If you don't play anything, you are welcome to come and just hangout, sing if you want to. If you like, pick up a ukulele, and someone will help you play a few simple chords and play along. If you have your own instrument, it is best to bring it. Also if you have a tablet, you can access the songbook at ukejam.online and then you don't have to stare at the TV screen all night. Everyone is welcome ... we also have a community WhatsApp group that you can join when you come to the event. We aim to be a safe and inclusive space for everyone. Beginners and experienced musicians are equally welcome. This isn't an open stage, but a space where a large group of people can play along together, in a style that is comfortable to them. It's all about meeting people, and about enjoying music together ... more like a camp fire sing-a-long where everyone is welcome.

Tervetuloa mukaan Sahaja Jooga -meditaatiotilaisuuksiin suomeksi! Tilaisuudet ovat maksuttomia, ja voit tulla paikalle ilman ennakkoilmoittautumista. Istumme yleensä tuoleilla tai lattialla tyynyillä, joten mattoa ei tarvitse ottaa mukaan, ja voit pukeutua tavallisiin vaatteisiin. Meditaatio tarkoittaa mielen hiljaisuutta tai ajatuksetonta tietoisuutta. Olet läsnä tässä hetkessä, mutta mielesi ei ole täynnä menneisyyden tai tulevaisuuden ajatuksia. Tässä tilassa tunnet rauhaa ja iloa, jotka ovat nykyhetken olennaisia elementtejä. Säännöllisellä meditaatioharjoituksella tämän tilan voi saada vakiintumaan meissä. Ryhmää johtavat vapaaehtoiset, joilla on kokemusta ja jotka voivat ohjata sinut alkuun. Annamme lyhyen johdatuksen meditaatioon, minkä jälkeen teemme meditaatioharjoituksia. Annamme myös vinkkejä meditaation harjoittamiseen kotona. Tervetuloa!

Here’s a description, trailer and our plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: A father, accompanied by his son arrive at a rave deep in the mountains of southern Morocco while searching for his daughter who vanished months ago at one of these endless, sleepless parties.
