Zürich - 83rd Fabric User Group [HYBRID]
Dear Data Wizards,
We are looking forward to inviting all of you to our next meetup.
**IF YOU WISH TO PARTICIPATE IN PERSON, PLEASE REACH OUT TO KRISTIAN DIRECTLY AS WE NEED TO REGISTER YOU IN THE CIRCLE.**
**Topics**
* What's New - Kristian
* Data Quality Testing - Louis
* Introduction to DAX User Defined Functions (UDFs) - Marco
The session will be recorded and made available on YouTube --> [https://aka.ms/FabricUGYouTube](https://aka.ms/FabricUGYouTube)
**Data Quality Testing**
A hands-on introduction to data quality in the data warehouse context. The session highlights why data quality is business-critical, outlines different types of tests, explains the distinction between syntactic and semantic validations, and demonstrates how to integrate a step-by-step testing strategy into existing data pipelines. Covering everything from quick wins to advanced monitoring approaches, in a tool-agnostic manner.
**Introduction to DAX User Defined Functions (UDFs)**
A user-defined function is a DAX formula with parameters that can return values or tables. Parameters can be passed by value or by expression. In this session, you will learn how to define and consume user-defined functions in your semantic model, how to share them in different models, and how to use function libraries created by the community!
**Sponsor**
We are happy to share that this meetup is kindly sponsored by our partner Altyca, who is hosting the apéro for this event.
A big thank-you to Altyca for supporting the Fabric & Power BI community and helping us create a great setting for learning, discussion, and networking.
**Good to know**
We want this group to be a safe environment that encourages open discussion, exchange of ideas and problems you may face. Therefore, we kindly ask that no members will leverage the information for unsolicited acquisitions of new customers or projects. This group builds on trust, and without it we cannot learn from each other and excel on this topic.
**Want to be a presenter?**
We are always looking for new speaker. If you are interested and would like to show something to the Power BI Meetup Group please feel free to contact us!

🍣 Sushi Connections – Meet Through Shared Experiences, Not Interviews.
🍣 Sushi Connections – Meet Through Shared Experiences, Not Interviews.
Welcome to the very first event of our newly integrated Singles Community!
Before we launch a full series of dating experiences, we'd like to test interest in a concept that we believe is much more natural, fun, and meaningful than traditional speed dating.
## Why Sushi?
Let's be honest...
Traditional singles events can feel a little artificial.
You sit across from someone, ask the same questions over and over again..
Instead, what if people could meet while doing something together?
Making sushi is the perfect activity because it is collaborative, social, fun, and allows participants to naturally rotate and interact with different people throughout the evening.
Rather than interviewing each other, you'll be:
🍣 Preparing sushi together
🍣 Working as a team
🍣 Sharing laughs and conversation naturally
🍣 Meeting multiple people throughout the evening
🍣 Enjoying the sushi you helped create
Sometimes the best connections happen when you're focused on an experience rather than trying to impress someone. And if you don't meet anyone , you've learned a new skill.
## The Concept
The idea is simple:
✨ Welcome drink and introductions
✨ Sushi-making experience with rotating partners
✨ Shared dinner with the group
✨ Optional confidential matching system after the event
The goal is to create a relaxed environment where people can get to know each other naturally through a shared activity.
## ⚠️ Important – Interest Check Event
At this stage, we are publishing this event primarily to measure interest in the concept.
📍 **The exact venue is still being selected.**
💰 **The final price is not yet confirmed.**
🗓️ **The final event date may be adjusted slightly depending on venue availability.**
By joining this event, you are simply expressing your interest in participating once the concept is finalised.
If there is enough enthusiasm, we will secure the venue, finalise the details, and open official registrations.
## Who Is This For?
❤️ Singles who prefer meaningful interactions over superficial conversations
❤️ People who enjoy social activities and meeting new people
❤️ Anyone curious to try a different approach to dating
If you've ever thought:
*"I'd rather meet someone while doing something together than sitting across a table asking questions..."*
then this event might be exactly what you're looking for.
Join the interest list and help us launch the very first Sunday Vacations Sushi Connections experience! 🍣✨
French Friday
**Join us in Ixelles on Friday 12th of June** **and practice your French!**
The aim is to chat in French and practice while having fun. You'll be greeted by Coline, the coordinator of Gallico Language Center (online lessons).
**Where?** Tavernier, Chau. de Boondael 445, 1050 Ixelles
**When?** Friday, 12th of June, from 7:30 PM to 10:30 PM.
**For who?** Everyone is welcome
**How much?** It's free and the first drink is offered by Gallico!
There is a 30 persons limit to make sure there is enough space in the bar (and I'm keeping 15 spots for Gallico's students outside Meetup).
If you invite a friend, let me know by message :)
Ps: If French is your mother tongue, you are also welcome!
Deep Conversation - Question Chosen in Session
How do we connect to people? What is so great about being different? Is love selfless? Should we be dreamers or realists? What values are we losing? When are we at our best? Does childhood ever end? Is morality a matter of convenience? What makes a person beautiful?
Such questions, and many more, await you Sunday at Sister's Cafe (second floor) . After introductions we will collect questions from the group participants, choose one by voting then discuss it for an hour. Then most of us stay for drinks and bizarre conversations :-).
Brunch and Connect: Make New Friends
⚠️ **IMPORTANT: You must sign up and buy a ticket here to attend:**
[https://groupvibe.com/](https://groupvibe.com/)
**This is a curated, small-group meetup make new friends in Brussels.**
Each meetup brings together 4–6 like-minded people for casual conversations over brunch. We use the Groupvibe platform to organize and ensure everyone’s a good fit.
👉 **To attend, you’ll need to complete registration via this link:**
[https://groupvibe.com](https://groupvibe.com)
Once you register, and **buy a ticket or become a Groupvibe member**, we’ll share the exact location and match you with your group.
**Why this works:**
\* Smaller groups make real conversations easier
\* Matching helps avoid awkward dynamics
**Note:**
RSVPs here on Meetup don’t reflect total attendance. Many attendees register directly via our website.
This meetup is organized by **Groupvibe**, a small team passionate about helping people form meaningful friendships offline.
Tennis doubles (NOT FOR BEGINNERS) - Terdelt Schaerbeek
Hello! This is a meet-up to play tennis from 2 pm to 4 pm on Sunday. Meeting is on the courts. The courts are booked under the name Jean-Marc. This event is for intermediate and advanced players and not organised for novice players or beginners.
Please make sure to bring the exact sum of 10 € in cash.
The event is non-commercial. This sum covers the cost of the courts reserved. The organizer is not there to make money out of you. Ladies are encouraged to join.
If anyone wants to drop out, they should do it on Saturday morning, not on Sunday the day of the meetup, another wise it would be too late to find a replacement in time or to cancel a court in time with reimbursement. If you don't do this, you will be asked by the organizer to reimburse your participation fee. If this happens too late then those who have cancelled after Saturday morning will have to cover the extra cost for reserving the courts.
In the past meetups, it happened too many times that we were an oneven number and because of that all those present had less fun to play. If you don't show up without giving a written excuse in time, the first future participation will be cancelled and you will be asked to reimburse the participation fee. If it happens too many times you will not be able to participate anymore.
In case if we are an uneven number of players, then the last player (except the host of course who has to collect the money) can leave or persuade other players to play with him or her. Of course if the last player leaves, then he or she doesn't have to pay the participation fee. If this player leaves, he or she will be added on a future event by the host or organizer in the participation list if the player is far away in the waiting list. This is the advantage of leaving on a voluntary basis;-).
We operate on the principle of Fair Play as we do not have umpires or referees. Any disputes or disagreements over line calls or scores should be resolved immediately on the court and, when agreement is not possible, the point or game should be replayed. To be able to replay the game, 3 players need to agree on that without manipulation of the one who disputes an entire game, anotherwise injustice could occur where in the end possibly the biggest cheater could win... This situation applies also, if the host or the organizer is involved.
When one of the players still doesn't accept this compromise, then it should be reported (meetup message by preference) to the organizer or host of the meetup event.
One of the consequences could be that the first upcoming event could be cancelled by the organizer for the player who doesn't comply with the compromise to play the point or the game again. If the same player does that again for a second time, then the person will see 4 of his next tennis meetups cancelled. If this happens a third time with the same player, then the player in question will be banned from all future tennis meetups with an exclusion as a final result.
Whenever there is a big problem, it should be reported as well to the organizer of the group so he can, if necessary, take actions to improve the situation for all the players.
Please also note that if you are the first on the waiting list, you will automatically be moved up to the attendance list if someone pulls out. So if you are on the waiting list and see that you cannot attend, please also change your status to not going.
If you would like to organize a meet up either this week or next week please get in touch with me, my name is Jean-Marc. It will depend on your initiatives to create more tennis meetups per week.
The Language Café 🌍 (FR) ☕️🥐
Salut toi! 👋
Tu penses pouvoir survivre en français? 😂 Testons ça autour d’un ☕️ (ou de toute autre boisson 🍵 ou snack 🍪🍰🥐 qui t'inspire sur le moment).
📍 Où?
Léopold PDN - un café parfois difficile à trouver surtout quand il pleut 🌧️☔, mais c’est exactement comme ça que commencent les aventures, pas vrai? 😂 Ne te perds pas au point de désespérer - envoie-moi un message avant de maudire Google Maps 🗺️!
💡 L'idée
Prends ta commande (obligatoire!☝️), puis rejoins la table. Après une petite intro on plongera dans des sujets comme activités, voyages, musique… Et si on est suffisamment motivés, on pourra même jouer à quelques jeux! On parlera uniquement en français—oui, immersion totale! Il se peut que l'on se divise en petits groupes pour que tout le monde en profite au max. Chaque groupe aura son propre expert en français 🇫🇷🧐 bien sûr - pour nous remettre sur le bon chemin dès que l'on commence à galérer!😆
🎲 Jeux
Pas de jeux énormes qui risquent de finir en catastrophe avec du café renversé, STP! On privilégie des jeux rapides, légers et amusants (en général, des jeux de cartes comme UNO ou Exploding Kittens 💥🐱). J’apporterai quelques jeux moi-même, mais n'hésite surtout pas à amener tes propres favoris (versions françaises évidemment😎)
⏱ Horaires
On commence à 15:00, et tu es libre de nous rejoindre à tout moment et de rester aussi longtemps que tu le souhaites.
Tu arrives plus tard? Préviens-moi dans le chat pour qu’on te garde une place! 😊
🚦 Liste d’attente?
Si tu es encore sur la liste d’attente mais tu veux absolument venir, ou si tu as une question, n’hésite pas à me contacter directement.
📢 Il se peut que je partage des détails supplémentaires dans le chat du groupe ou en DM 💬—pense à vérifier tes messages 👀 au moins la veille de l’événement pour ne pas manquer d'infos essentielles🙄!
🐈⬛ Le Code des Amis :
👉 On se tutoie, c'est plus cool✌️
👉 Respect et bonnes vibes - sinon 💥🥊
👉 Les erreurs? On s'en fou! Et si on galère on switchera en anglais ou bien: 🎭💃🎶🎸🤹🏿♂️
👉 Un empêchement? Annule ou préviens-moi à temps pour laisser la place à quelqu’un d’autre🙏
👉 Sur la liste d’attente? Ne viens pas sans confirmation.
À très bientôt ! 😉

Smart Search + AI: An Outcome-Driven Journey from IDP to a Suite of AI
Over a billion documents processed. Millions of Veterans impacted. Hundreds of thousands of employee hours saved. Faster decisions. Greater accuracy. More benefits in the hands of our disabled Veterans.
We created Smart Search, the world’s largest consumer of Amazon Textract, right when GenAI began reshaping what’s possible. Since then, we’ve built a suite of AI‑driven solutions that transform this data into real, measurable outcomes—accelerating benefits decisions for our Nation’s Veterans.
Join us for a focused conversation on how an outcome‑driven approach to AI is helping us boost accuracy, streamline workflows, and deliver faster results for those who have served.
This is a follow up to the AWS re:Invent 2023 "Intelligent Document Processing with Gen AI for Public Sector" presentation.

Microsoft Build - Columbus Edition!
We are bringing Microsoft Build sessions to Columbus Ohio!
The Central Ohio Azure Meetup and Central Ohio .NET Developer's Group (CONDG) are coming together to bring some of the labs and breakouts from Microsoft Build to your backyard. In this free, 1 day event, you are going to Build stuff with us!
And yes, there will be free food.
Please RSVP via [Microsoft Build //localhost:columbus | Microsoft Reactor](https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/reactor/events/27247/).
Battle of the personal agents
Join the Columbus AI community for a special event.
**Battle of the Personal Agents** is your chance to see what people are actually building with AI agents and personal automation systems. Whether you’re running OpenClaw, Hermes, or a completely custom solution, bring your agent and show the community how it works.
We’re interested in real-world implementations: the problems your agent solves, how you use it day-to-day, how it’s hosted and managed, how you built it, and why you’ve chosen to keep using it. Live demonstrations are encouraged, so be prepared to show your code, architecture, workflows, and your agent performing real tasks.
This is less about polished presentations and more about sharing practical experience, comparing approaches, and learning from one another. If you’d like to present, please contact Chris Slee (via meetup) before the event so we can allocate enough time for everyone’s demonstrations.
Come ready to show what you’ve built, discover what others are doing, and maybe find a few ideas worth taking home.
Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.
