Career & Purpose Lab
For many professionals, career questions are no longer only about finding a job.
Very often, they are about direction, confidence, identity and the search for meaningful alignment.
This June, The LuxBuzz Academy is launching the pilot edition of the Career & Purpose Lab: From Direction to Action— a guided small-group journey designed for professionals navigating transition, change and career reflection.
The programme combines strategic reflection, career guidance, professional positioning and confidence-building in a supportive and interactive environment designed for meaningful dialogue and practical exploration.
We are also very happy to bring together three experienced professionals who will guide different stages of this journey:
• [Steve Muscat Azzopardi](https://www.linkedin.com/in/stevemuscatazzopardi/) \- Leadership Mentor • Commercial Director\, MentorLab Group • Author • EMP Certified Practitioner helping participants explore purpose\, direction and authentic career growth\.
• [Marina Krasochka](https://www.linkedin.com/in/mkrasochka/) \- Co\-Active coach • Life & Career resets • ex\-Google & ex\-Meta with international recruitment and coaching experience supporting professionals through transition and reinvention\.
• [Miriam Vetrano](https://www.linkedin.com/in/miriam-vetrano-557b3b24/) \- Psychologist • Human\, Performance & Mindset Strategist focusing on confidence\, professional presence and authentic self\-expression during periods of change\.
The pilot is intentionally designed for a small group of 6–8 participants to create space for reflection, personalised guidance and peer exchange.
This pilot is particularly relevant for:
• professionals navigating career transitions
• internationally mobile professionals
• expat spouses and partners
• individuals re-entering the workforce
• professionals seeking greater clarity and alignment in their career direction
This is not a traditional training course. It is a guided process designed to help participants move from confusion or stagnation toward clarity, direction and action.
Four sessions will be held:
🗓 Dates: 03 June 2026, 08 June 2026, 9 June 2026, 15 June 2026
📍 Location: The Office Charlotte, Luxembourg
🕙 10:00–12:00

AI & Lunch - Productive Lunch Time. Meet people who are around AI.
## AI & Lunch - In-person gathering in Luxembourg
Hey there! Join us for another **in-person lunch** in the heart of Luxembourg where AI enthusiasts come together to chat, share ideas, and enjoy great food.
Whether you're a pro or just curious about artificial intelligence, this is the perfect chance to connect and exchange with like-minded people.
See you there!
**AI & Lunch** is the seated, more intimate format of the **AI & Coffee** community — designed for deeper conversations and real connection around the table. This will be a lunch where we all sit together and so everyone gets the chance to meet the full table, connect, and discover new stories.
You’re welcome to bring friends if you’d like. The goal is simple: enjoy lunch together, exchange ideas, value, updates about AI, and meet the people behind this growing community. After our AI & Coffee meetups, previous lunches, dinners, many meaningful connections have already formed — and this format is where they really deepen.
🍽️ **We’ll gather for conversations about:**
• AI news, trends, tools, and real use cases
• Personal projects, ideas, and feedback
• Supporting each other’s personal or entrepreneurial journeys
• Strengthening Luxembourg’s AI community
👥 **Who’s welcome?**
Developers, entrepreneurs, investors, students, researchers, creatives — and anyone curious about AI who enjoys thoughtful conversation and meeting new people.
💡 **What to expect**
• A friendly, open lunch in a nice location
• Circulating seats throughout the courses
• Great conversations, new perspectives, and genuine connections
• No pressure, no presentations — just good people and meaningful exchange
**🎉 The only cost is your lunch.**
Bring your curiosity, your appetite, and your good energy — and join us for a lunch of conversation and connection.
Stuck in your thoughts or emotions? Let’s talk 1:1
Do you sometimes feel confused, overwhelmed, or unsure about your direction?
You may have complex thoughts or emotions, but not necessarily feel the need for therapy.
At the same time, small talk may feel too superficial, and sharing everything with friends is not always easy.
Sometimes, you simply want a thoughtful conversation
with someone who listens carefully. :)
In this 1:1 meeting, we take one hour to reflect on what is currently on your mind:
relationships, life decisions, career questions, emotional situations or simply whatever feels important to you.
The aim is to help you gain more clarity, discover new perspectives, or simply feel less alone.
All conversations are confidential.
Pilot phase contribution:
60 min → 25€ (incl. one drink)
+20€ per additional 30 min
Languages: English, Deutsch or 普通话
Time: slots available in April & May (after work or weekends)
Location: café or comfortable place of your choice
We decide together via private message.
If this resonates with you, feel free to message me. :)

Stop Guessing: A Product Person's Guide to AI Adoption
## 🤝 Host Information
A co-hosted event by ProductTank Columbus & Women in Product Columbus
💡 About the Workshop
AI adoption is stalling across organizations — not because of a lack of motivation or tools, but because it's fundamentally a behavior design challenge.
This hands-on workshop applies proven Behavior Design models and methods to help you move from a vague organizational wish to boost AI adoption to 3-5 concrete, testable interventions you can act on starting tomorrow.
Whether you're a product manager, on a product team, or just someone trying to get AI to actually stick at work, you'll leave with a clear picture of what's worth focusing on, what to ignore, and how to drive real, sustained adoption — no guesswork required.
🛠️ What to Bring
Laptop: Fully charged and ready to go.
AI Assistant: Have your favorite AI assistant pulled up. (Dom will be using Claude, but feel free to use whichever assistant you prefer!)
🍕 Logistics & Perks
Food & Drink: Pizza and drinks provided!
Parking: Plenty of free spaces available on-site.
###
Data & Analytics Wednesday - Finding Product Insights
**The Behavior Gap: Where Products Win or Lose**
Teams today have more data than ever, and yet many still struggle to understand why customers adopt, engage with, or abandon their products. Teams sprint, ship faster, and chase more signals… all while metrics stall and confidence drops. The missing piece isn’t more data. It’s often the behavioral insight between the metrics, explaining why the numbers move in the first place. Dashboards can tell you what customers did, but understanding why they did it (and how to influence what they do next) requires a deeper blend of insights. This session is about closing that gap.
Drawing from real-world experience designing and scaling products as [ZoCo Design](https://zocodesign.com/)’s CEO, [Lacey](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) will share how to cut through the noise and identify the insights that actually change behavior—moving people, and moving metrics. You’ll learn:
* Why understanding customer behavior is a quant and qual challenge
* How to spot the signals that actually predict behavior change
* Where AI accelerates insight, and where it creates distraction
* How to get meaningfully closer to customers, without adding more tools
This talk reframes how to evaluate performance and identify what levers actually improve it, helping your team to make smarter bets with greater confidence. Every meaningful outcome is driven by behavior change. And when you know how to design for behavior, you stop guessing, and start building things that work.
**About Our Speaker**
[Lacey Picazo](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) is the Founder and CEO of ZoCo, a healthcare product studio that turns complex, high-stakes ideas into products that drive real-world adoption. She partners with healthcare organizations to uncover critical care delivery insights, focus product strategy through behavior design, and build solutions that patients and providers actually use.
