New in Berlin: Easter Monday Connections – Social Butterfly Club 🦋
Easter Monday carries a different kind of energy — somewhere between a long weekend, a fresh start, and the feeling that spring is finally here.
This Social Butterfly Club Meetup brings that energy into a relaxed Monday evening. A space to connect, share conversations, and start the week with a bit more lightness and curiosity. 🌷
There might be a few small Easter surprises hidden around — nothing too serious, just a playful excuse to look around, smile, and maybe start a conversation with someone new. 🐣
Whether you’ve spent the weekend with people, by yourself, or somewhere in between — this is a chance to step back into the city and connect.
✨ Suggested Ice Breaker Question:
“What has been a highlight of your long weekend?”

[Women in Big Data Berlin] Workshops: The Human-Digital Synthesis
🚀 Workshops: The Human-Digital Synthesis
**Kultur\-Technik 2026 \| Women in Big Data Berlin**
AI is no longer a future concept—it is already reshaping how we work, create, and make decisions.
The real question is: **how do we use it intelligently?**
*Kultur-Technik 2026:* *The Human–Digital Synthesis* draws from the European idea that technology is an extension of human culture.
In this interactive session, we bring together the Women in Big Data Berlin community to explore how humans and AI will collaborate, build, and evolve together.
This is not a passive event—
it’s a space to **learn, discuss, and create together.**
The event is hosted by **Ojin AixHaus.**
Ojin AixHaus is the new, collaborative community space in Berlin Mitte, where scientists, machine learning engineers, founders, creators, and AI enthusiasts come together to build and learn about the future of AI.
Ojin AixHaus is free to join, open for startups in residency applications and is currently curating their 2026 events calendar. If you have a burning idea for an event, meetup or hackathon - bring your fire, they bring the space!
**💡 Event Details 💡**
**1\. Choose and Participate Your Workshop \(60 mins\)**
Participants will get to choose and join one of two parallel tracks onsite, and co-create a “chapter” for the final showcase.
🧠 **TECH TRACK: Collective Intelligence & AI in Companies**
Facilitator: Dr. Katarzyna Stoltmann
Co\-Founder\, Women in Big Data Berlin \| Head of Data Science & AI
How do companies truly get the best out of AI? The answer: **collective intelligence**.
This session explores:
* What collective intelligence means in practice
* Which tasks and roles will evolve with AI
* Whether AI replaces work—or creates new opportunities
✍🏼 Hands-on focus:
Designing end-to-end AI solutions at scale—thinking through how humans and AI systems collaborate to deliver impact for millions of users.
🖼️ Output:
A conceptual demonstration of a **“context-aware agent architecture”**
🌟 **IDENTITY TRACK: Visibility & Personal Branding in the Age of AI**
Facilitator: Angeley Mullins
Founder & CEO, Aetheris Ventures
In a world where content and ideas can be generated at scale, how do you stay **visible, credible, and distinctive**?
This session explores:
* How to position your *human voice* in an AI-driven landscape
* What defines authenticity and value in 2026
* How to use AI as a co-creator, not a replacement
✍🏼 Hands-on focus:
Define your personal narrative, identify your unique “signal,” and build a strategic approach to visibility through guided exercises and peer exchange.
🖼️ Output:
A **“Visible Self Prototype”**—your personal positioning, key content angles, and a simple plan to build credibility and presence in an AI-shaped world
**2\. Grand Finale: The 2026 Showcase \(45 mins\)**
We come together to share insights from each group:
* Tech track presents the “Brain” (AI Agent concept)
* Capabilities track presents the “Voice” (Personal Brand & Visibility Strategy in the AI era)
We will have networking afterwards where you can continue sharing your ideas!
🗓 **Date: 9 April 2026**
**⏰ Time: 18:00 – 21:30**
**📍 Location: Ojin AixHaus \| Chausseestraße 36\, 10115 Berlin**
Why do we need these workshops? Because AI is moving so fast! - and so should we. Join us to:
* Understand AI beyond the hype
* Learn how to use it strategically and responsibly
* Connect with a community shaping the future
👉 **Choose your track. Join the conversation. Build what’s next. We look forward to seeing you next week!**

Performancebesprechung 1.Quartal 2026 im Langfristdepot
Diesmal werten wir die Performance des Musterdepots meiner Gruppe "[Souveränes Vermögen – Der Club für Langfrist-Investoren](https://www.meetup.com/de-DE/dieinvestoren/)" im ersten Quartal 2026 aus. Was lief gut, was lief schlecht und warum lief es gut oder schlecht? Welche Regeln haben sich bewährt und welche sind überflüssig? Müssen wir Änderungen vornehmen? Spannend für alle, die einem Investitionsprozess über die Schulter schauen wollen während er entsteht.

CBusData: The Fellowship of the Star Schema: Transforming OLTP Data for Power BI
The Fellowship of the Star Schema: Transforming OLTP Data for Power BI
One does not simply build reports on OLTP data. Join us on an epic journey from the depths of raw, normalized tables to the shining halls of a well-modeled star schema fit for Power BI greatness. We will demystify the differences between OLTP and OLAP, walk through star schema vs snowflake (and why Power BI has a clear favorite), and show you the compression differences between normalized and columnar storage that will make you never look at an OLTP model the same way again.
We will cover the different types of dimensions, when to use them, and how to handle Slowly Changing Dimensions without losing your mind. You will leave knowing exactly how to identify a bad model, how to convert OLTP data into a clean star schema, and how to forge relationships that rule them all.
Whether you are a data wizard, a curious hobbit, or somewhere in between, your models will never be the same.
Data & Analytics Wednesday - The Data-Driven Brand
**The Data-Driven Brand: Using Analytics to Shape Perception**
Can you use analytics to improve tacos? This being CBUSDAW, we think the answer is probably “yes”, but we’re not sure how to implement or test this theory.
For our April meetup we’ve got Sara Kear, CMO of Condado Tacos, to investigate this delicious question. Sara will explore how she blends quantitative data and qualitative customer feedback to shape brand positioning and drive business decisions. We all know that marketing and analytics go way beyond attribution. Sara will show how Condado uses customer insights to inform product and pricing strategy.
She’ll also highlight how Condado leverages customer feedback at scale to influence operational priorities, positioning marketing as the voice of the customer across the organization. In the last 12 years Condado has gone from one location in Columbus to 52 locations across 10 states, so we’re guessing there’s more to that growth than really good guac (though the guac probably helps).
Ultimately, this talk focuses on the intersection of art and science—using data to inform creativity and build a brand that resonates with customers in a measurable way.
**About Our Speaker**
Sara Kear is Chief Marketing Officer at Condado Tacos, where she oversees brand, restaurant design, menu and pricing strategy, off-premise including catering, and customer data strategy. Since joining in 2021, she has helped grow the brand from 19 to 52 locations while building a data-driven marketing organization focused on loyalty and customer insights. Condado has since been named to the Inc. 5000, recognized as Breakout Retailer by Chain Store Age, and consistently ranked among FastCasual’s Top 100 Movers & Shakers.

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.
