Hey there, awesome people! 😊 We've got something exciting to share with you—our next big event! When? May 5th, 6:30 PM Where? Autogrill headquarters, Strada 5, Rozzano (MI) Join us at the Innovation Hub and the Factory Food Designers, the beating heart of gastronomic innovation for the Avolta/Autogrill Group. It's a true idea incubator, where chefs, pastry chefs, nutritionists, designers, food bloggers and technologists meet every day to anticipate trends and bring new flavors, products and concepts to life—the same ones that end up in Autogrill stores around the world. The space is organized into dedicated areas, each with its own specific function: the Food Hall, designed for meetings, events and coworking sessions the Food Academy, where staff are trained and show cooking sessions with top chefs take place Area 51, the space for free-form experimentation, which also houses a small High-Tech Restaurant with table service and a chef experience table the Concept & Food Tech Lab, where Autogrill's main formats are prototyped and tested before hitting the road Here are some interesting links about the venue and sponsors: Avolta Next Milano: https://avoltanextmilano.autogrill.it/ Factory Food Designers: https://www.autogrill.com/it/storie/factory-food-designers-la-ricerca-costante-delleccellenza Was Coffee: https://www.autogrill.it/wascoffee/ Now, here's the scoop: We're diving into a time when software isn't just following orders anymore—it's thinking, planning, and playing it smart. Enter AI agents! These are like the new superheroes—smart systems that see what's up around them, make cool decisions, and go for it to hit their goals. So, what's in it for a food & travel retail company like Autogrill? Let's find out together! In our chat, we'll break down AI agents into real-life examples straight from Autogrill's turf—from the highway pit stops to our Factory Food Designers innovation lab right here in Rozzano. And guess what? We're rolling out Google's Agent Development Kit (ADK), this open-source mastermind that helps you whip up, run, and show off multi-agent systems on Google Cloud. Oh, and we'll even throw a live demo on stage! Please note: an additional registration will be required for venue access and will be requested from registered attendees See you on the 5th! 🎉 Agenda --- Hosted By Davide Tresoldi, Organizer Matteo Rocco, Analyst Hi Complete your event RSVP here: https://gdg.community.dev/events/details/google-gdg-cloud-milano-presents-the-reasoning-layer-architecting-multi-agent-support-systems-with-google-cloud/.

Sono proprietario di un bar e dispongo di un tavolo da biliardo semi-professionale. Sto creando un gruppo WhatsApp di giocatori amatoriali di biliardo americano pool/carambola, per la maggior parte debuttanti. Cerco persone disposte a unirsi al gruppo per giocare e divertirsi nel tempo libero, il pomeriggio oppure la sera in ogni giorno. Per stimolare l'impegno di ogni giocatore, abbiamo pattuito che il vincitore di ogni "mini-torneo" organizzato nei vari giorni giochi gratis e non paghi la tariffa di tempo per il periodo di gioco (un'ora di gioco costa 10€, ma viene di volta in volta frazionata in base al periodo di gioco effettivo). Il locale si trova in zona nord di Milano, stazione Greco-Pirelli, università Bicocca. Chiunque dovesse essere davvero interessato a partecipare e unirsi al mio gruppo, non esiti a contattarmi. Cerco persone serie e disposte solamente a divertirsi, senza puntare mazzette grazie mille. Antonio

The GYROTONIC® (with equipment) and GYROKINESIS® (without equipment) methods were developed in the 1970s by Juliu Horvath, a professional Hungarian dancer who, after multiple injuries, sought a new approach to rehabilitation. This led him to create GYROTONIC®, an extraordinary discipline that combines elements of dance, yoga, swimming, and tai chi. In the GYROTONIC® method, exercise sequences consist of rhythmic, circular movements that flow seamlessly from one to the next, allowing the joints to move freely and naturally, without compression. GYROTONIC® is a unique and original method that stimulates the nervous system, tones the muscles, and improves balance, coordination, flexibility, and strength. The practice of GYROTONIC® is suitable for everyone, including those recovering from injuries who are looking for a new approach to rehabilitation. Each person can naturally adapt the exercises to their own physical condition and needs, so age or fitness level do not matter. The only goal is to regain agility and mobility, helping your body feel healthier and more balanced than ever. **Les Amis** is a women-only community of friendly souls.

Ogni serata di ogni Club del mondo è strutturata in tre parti: 1. **Discorsi Preparati:** I nostri soci presentano discorsi su vari argomenti per allenare le loro skill (Storytelling, body language, struttura). 2. **Improvvisazione (Table Topics)\*:** Esercizi di improvvisazione per imparare a rispondere con sicurezza a ogni domanda. 3. **Valutazioni:** Ogni speaker riceve da un altro socio un feedback costruttivo per capire cosa ha fatto bene e cosa può migliorare. *\*Nota:* Anche gli ospiti possono provare a buttarsi, ma **solo se lo desiderano**. Nessuno ti forzerà! **📍 DOVE E QUANDO:** Ci troviamo allo Spazio OiT (Via Porpora 14, zona Loreto) ogni 1° e 3° mercoledì del mese. * Ore **19:00**: Networking e accoglienza. * Ore **19:15**: Inizio puntualissimo. **⚠️** **Per garantire un'esperienza di qualità, accettiamo solo 9 nuovi ospiti per ogni serata.** **Assicurati il tuo posto gratuito ora!** Ti aspettiamo!

Impariamo a eseguire e ricevere il Massaggio! Sono una massoterapista e insegnante di tecniche manuali e desidero diffondere la benefica pratica del massaggio a tutti, donne e uomini, di qualsiasi età e professione. Tratteremo zone comode come gli arti superiori e inferiori, in sicurezza ed efficacia. Conosceremo meglio il corpo umano, miglioreremo la postura e daremo finalmente spazio alla respirazione. Massaggiare e ricevere il massaggio aumenta il buon umore e riduce le tensioni muscolari, allora perché non stare insieme e imparare qualcosa di benefico e divertente? Portate un asciugamano e indossate un abbigliamento comodo (ad esempio una maglietta larga o una canotta, e un pantalone che possa essere sollevato fino al ginocchio, o pantaloncini). Al finire, una piccola merenda per tutti! Ci vediamo in via Palma metro Gambara M1

Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs. This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context. We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing. **SPEAKER BIO** Mosaic Syed is a Senior Data Engineering and Cloud Solutions Architect with over 20 years of experience designing and delivering scalable, secure, and high-performance data solutions across global enterprise environments. https://www.linkedin.com/in/mosaic-basha-syed-92300856 **CALL FOR SPEAKERS** Learn more: [https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/](https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/) **THANK YOU** *VEEAM* for hosting our meetup!

Join us for a practical, beginner-friendly guide to choosing the right large language model. We’ll compare major models like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Llama, talk about when to use hosted APIs versus local models, and break down the tradeoffs around cost, speed, quality, privacy, context windows, coding ability, and reliability. You’ll leave with a clearer mental model for picking an LLM based on your actual use case instead of hype, benchmarks, or brand names. No deep AI background required. LOGISTICS AND PARKING: The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks! The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.
