Digital Marketing

Please join us on May 20th for an amazing co-hosted practical meetup with the Data Science Society! ## What can you expect? ​This hands-on workshop explores how modern AI tools are changing everyday software engineering. Participants will see practical, real-world examples of how developers use tools like Kiro, Claude Code, Windsurf, and Cursor to write, debug, refactor, and understand code more efficiently. ​The session focuses on concrete use cases - speeding up feature development, improving code quality, navigating large codebases, and integrating AI into existing development cycles. It will give attendees a clear view of what “AI-augmented development” looks like in practice. ## ​Who will present? ​We have 4 speakers : * ​Rosen Krumov * ​Borislava Bagaliyska * ​Petar Ivanov * ​Viktor Botev ​Soon we will announce a bit more about the concrete expertize and focus of each of them! # ​Official partner ​For this meet-up our official partner is [iris.ai](https://iris.ai/?utm_source=luma). ​[Iris.ai](https://iris.ai/?utm_source=luma) is the AI Development and Operation Platform for building secure, high-performance Agentic RAG systems. ​Event is free but registration is mandatory: https://luma.com/bz9lg7aq

4 години споделяме знание! Създаваме сигурност. Празнуваме заедно! Настъпи момент да отпразнуваме заедно **4-тата** **ГОДИШНИНА на Cyber Security Talks Bulgaria**. Този път без домакин и по много по-различен начин. Заповядайте на нашето парти в Art Bar 158 на **20.05**. Вече 4 години създаваме общност, споделяме опит, мнение и научени уроци, защото така вярваме, че ще постигнем по-сигурно Киберпространство за всички нас. Стъпвайки отново фраза от добре познатия ни сериал „Бар Наздраве“ : „Where everybody knows your name“, бихме казали, че Cyber Security Talks Bulgaria се утвърди като място, където всеки е добре дошъл. На 20 май това място е „Art Bar 158” (ул. „Княз Борис I“ 158). Подготвили сме една по-различна от обичайното програма, но ще я разкриваме постепенно. Както казваше един знаменит българин „Часът и мястото на срещата са известни“ – Часът е обичайният, дата - нестандартна, мястото – различни от всяко до момента. **Всеки гост на нашето парти ще получи подарък. Първото питие е от нас.** Ела на едно по-различно събитие с quiz, жива музика и приятни моменти.

**How to Get Off-Market Deals With Direct-to-Seller Marketing** Want to learn how to get off-market deals through direct-to-seller marketing without relying on agents, wholesalers, or the MLS for consistent deal flow? That is exactly what we are covering at this next Columbus Investors Club Meetup. Get Your Free Ticket **[HERE](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/how-to-get-off-market-deals-with-direct-to-seller-marketing-tickets-1987845260686?aff=cicmeetupapp)**[ ](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/how-to-get-off-market-deals-with-direct-to-seller-marketing-tickets-1987845260686?aff=cicmeetupapp)🎟️ Most investors who try to do off-market deals make the same mistake: they throw money into a marketing channel, pray that it works, and hope a deal comes out the other side. There is no real strategy, no clear math, no tracking, and no process to know what is actually working. At this meetup, we are going to break down how to reverse engineer direct-to-seller marketing using our SCALE framework so you can approach your marketing with more clarity, confidence, and consistency. We will cover how to think through inbound, outbound, and free marketing channels, how to choose the right channel for your goals, how to run the numbers before you spend, how to allocate the right budget, how to launch the campaign correctly, and how to evaluate and track performance so you can make better decisions moving forward. **SCALE Framework:** **S –** Select the right channel **C –** Calculate the numbers **A –** Allocate the budget **L –** Launch the campaign **E –** Evaluate and track it **What We’ll Cover** * How to get off-market deals through direct-to-seller marketing * How to stop guessing and start reverse engineering your marketing * The difference between inbound, outbound, and free marketing channels * How to choose the right channel for your business and market * How to calculate the numbers before launching * How to allocate a budget based on goals, not emotion * How to launch and track a campaign the right way * How to create more consistent and predictable deal flow **Date:** May 28, 2026 (Thursday) **Time:** 6 - 8pm EST **Location:** Ohio Brewing Company, 421 E 2nd Ave, Columbus, OH 43201 **Save Your Seat** → https://www.eventbrite.com/e/how-to-get-off-market-deals-with-direct-to-seller-marketing-tickets-1987845260686?aff=cicmeetupapp **FREE DRINKS & FOOD PROVIDED!** **About Columbus Investors Club** The Columbus Investors Club is a local meetup for real estate investors, aspiring investors, contractors, vendors, lenders, realtors, and other professionals who want to grow in the Columbus market. The goal is to create real connection, real opportunity, and real growth by getting the right people in the room.

Let's grab some coffee/food and share a morning chat! The East Market has an ample parking lot and outdoor and indoor seating. Grab a cup of coffee from Winston's Coffee & Waffles or on your way to East Market and meet us on the second floor - table behind or east of the elevator. Per what this group is about: "Everyone is welcome! International transplants to Columbus who want to improve language skills, Columbus residents who enjoy talking to people from other countries, and those who would like to discuss international travel and culture, and who enjoy getting together for good conversations."

NFT's are here to stay folks! This is a group for like minded people interested in understanding, leveraging, using, creating for, profiting from, trading too i suppose, NFT's.. everything around them, complexity, fear and exploits, best practices and more. **PLUS** This group will talk AI ART tools, techniques, artists, video, audio, prototypes and more in the AI assisted production space- ART specifically, but we can get into any aspect of some of the cooler things happening in AI in general.

Let’s meet and wander the galleries! General admission on Sundays is free.
