👂 **Talks:**
🗣️ Boris Wrubel
**Developing Selenium Tests with AI: Practical Insights from Real-World Automation Projects**
🗣️ Philipp Greitbauer
**Modern Java Packaging: From Slim Images to Swift Runtimes**
🧑💻 **Speakers:**
**Boris Wrubel** has over 20 years of experience in software testing, specializing in test automation within agile environments. His expertise spans major projects in banking, telecommunications, and the public sector. For a decade, Boris was part of the Industrial Software Research Group (INSO) at Vienna University of Technology (TU Wien), where he also organized and lectured in the "Software Testing" course. He holds a degree in Business Informatics, with a focus on project and quality management from TU Wien, and has contributed to open-source test automation projects in recent years.
*Talk description:*
He will share an honest field report from an ongoing project: How does my day-to-day work with Selenium change when generative AI is added as a support tool?
Using concrete examples, I demonstrate how AI-based tools help with writing, revising, and understanding test code - for example, by suggesting test cases, proposing refactorings, or assisting with debugging.
The focus is not on technology promises, but on real-world experience: Where does AI save time? Where does it lead you astray? And how does this change the role of the test automation engineer?
The talk is aimed at anyone interested in the use of AI in quality assurance, with a focus on practical insights, pitfalls, and concrete learnings from everyday project work.
**Philipp Greitbauer** is a software engineer at &, a Vienna-based software consulting company. While he works across the full stack, his focus lies in the backend using Java, Kotlin, and Spring Boot.
Driven by a curiosity that often leads him down technical "rabbit holes", Philipp is committed to building proper technical foundations. He prioritizes utilizing existing tools to their full potential rather than reinventing the wheel, ensuring that systems are built efficiently. His daily work involves helping clients evolve their systems, drawing on his experience in the banking industry and the public sector.
*Talk description:*
In this session, we will look at modern strategies for efficiently packaging and running Spring Boot applications. If you are currently building Docker images by simply copying fat JARs, there are several newer tools and techniques in the Java ecosystem that can significantly optimize both your deployment process and runtime performance.
We will explore the use of Buildpacks and Spring AOT, alongside JVM advancements like Project Leyden and Java 25’s Compact Object Headers. The talk will also contrast GraalVM with optimized JVM runtimes using AOT Cache or CRaC, examining how these different approaches address the challenges of startup time and resource usage.

**[HOL DIR TICKETS HIER!!!](https://www.eventbrite.at/e/comedy-cuzengz-vol-1-live-stand-up-comedy-show-thecomedypub-tickets-1984837738105?aff=MeetUp)**
Comedy CUZENGZ bringt rohe, ehrliche Stand-up Comedy aus Wien auf die Bühne. Drei Kulturen, ein Abend voller Lacher.
Was ist Comedy CUZENGZ?
**Comedy CUZENGZ** ist Stand-up Comedy aus Wien – roh, ehrlich und ohne Filter.
Wir sind drei Jungs aus Wien mit komplett unterschiedlichen Backgrounds:
ein **Somalier**, ein **Türke** und ein **Jugo**.
Genau die Diversität, die sich jedes Englischbuch wünschen würde.
Wir haben jedoch schnell gemerkt, dass unser Humor nicht überall reinpasst.
Oft haben wir gar keine Bühne bekommen – und wenn doch, standen wir plötzlich vor Publikum, das unsere Referenzen gar nicht verstanden hat.
Also haben wir uns gedacht:
**Scheiß drauf. Wir bauen unsere eigene Bühne.**
So ist **Comedy CUZENGZ** entstanden.
Unser erstes Event war sofort **komplett ausverkauft**.
Die Energie im Raum war krank und das Feedback von euch war so stark, dass wir direkt wussten:
Hier entsteht gerade etwas Echtes.
Keine steife Theaterstimmung.
Keine Filter.
Einfach **echte Stand-up Comedy**.
Was euch erwartet
Bei dieser Show stehen wieder die **CUZENGZ** auf der Bühne:
**Kowsi**
Unser charmantester Türke – schnell, frech und immer bereit, euch zu überraschen.
**Mo**
Somalias Antwort auf Dave Chappelle. Direkt, ehrlich und mit Punchlines, die sitzen.
**Patrik**
Stabiler Jugo und diesmal **Host des Abends**. Er führt euch durch die Show und sorgt dafür, dass der Abend eskaliert.
Special Guest
Diesmal haben wir außerdem einen **Special Guest** dabei:
**Soso**
Eine echte Wiener Comedy-Legende, die seit über **20 Jahren** auf der Bühne steht.
Der Vibe der Show
Freut euch auf:
🔥 Stand-up Comedy ohne Filter
🔥 Geschichten aus Wien und aus dem echten Leben
🔥 verschiedene Perspektiven und Kulturen
🔥 eine Atmosphäre wie unter Freunden
Comedy CUZENGZ ist keine klassische Comedy-Show –
es ist eher wie ein Abend mit deinen **Cousins**, die zufällig extrem lustig sind.
Werde Teil der CUZENGZ
Komm vorbei, lach mit uns und werde auch ein **Cuzeng** oder eine **Cuzine**.
Wir sehen uns im Publikum.

Platform Engineering Vienna - March 2026 Meetup
Join us at our March Meetup event for great talks, discussions and beers. Big thanks to Posedio for hosting!
**Agenda**:
* Doors open 5:30 p.m.
* ***Talk 1: 6:00 to 6:30 p.m.***
* **Speaker**: Christian Kirchknopf
* **Title**: Building a Secure In-House LLMaaS Platform: BRZ's Approach to AI for Federal Government
* **Abstract**: In this talk, I demonstrate how we (BRZ) have developed an Enterprise-Ready LLM-as-a-Service platform that provides government applications simple and secure access to Large Language Models – without dependency on public cloud providers and without data sharing with third parties.
Through a unified API, AI applications gain access to locally operated models (e.g., Mistral) or optionally to public cloud providers – depending on requirements, costs, and data protection needs of the workload.
Discuss the architectural and product decisions: vLLM as a GPU-optimized inference engine, a central AI gateway that enforces multi-tenancy, security, and comprehensive observability.
A brief live demo will show how applications and developers access AI models through a single API – with token-based quotas per tenant and intelligent routing.
An experience report from an exciting AI infrastructure project in Austria.
* **Break: 6:30 to 6:45 p.m.**
* ***Talk 2: 6:45 to 7:30 p.m.***
* **Speaker**: Damjan Gjurovski
* **Title**: What is A(I) platform?
* **Abstract:** In this talk I will discuss the need of platforms in the age of AI. I will outline some hard-won lessons from my previous experience in developer platforms, data platforms and SRE teams, and discuss how these apply to AI platforms.
On the one hand, I will make the argument that AI makes certain aspects of platforms and platform engineering unnecessary, but on the other hand reinforces the need for other platform components.
Finally, I will attempt to differentiate between the two new platform types out there – AI platforms and AI Engineering platforms and discuss the capabilities and requirements for each.
* **Networking**: start 7:45 p.m.

The Future of Leadership: Workflow-Embedded Skills Development
**About this event:**
Join us on 26 March in Vienna for an evening where we'll explore how leaders actually develop capability - not in classrooms, but inside work itself.
**Agenda:**
**16:00 – Arrive, connect over drinks and nibbles**
**16:30 – The Future of Leadership: Workflow-Embedded Skills Development**
* Why traditional leadership development isn't transferring to practice
* What leaders actually need in 2026 (and it's not just another model)
* What workflow embedded skills development actually looks like - real examples from teams we've worked with
**17:30 – Interactive Workshop: Building the Leadership Skills Your Organisation Needs**
* Learn about ways to build people skils hands-on
* Work through a real leadership challenge with peers
* Leave with practical next steps for your context
**19:30 – Networking**
* Wine, food (gluten-free and vegan options available)
* Connect with people facing similar challenges
**16:00 – Arrive, connect over drinks and nibbles**
**Why this matters**
Leadership development is broken. Organisations invest heavily, leaders attend programmes, certificates get handed out - and then nothing changes.
The problem isn't lack of frameworks. It's the gap between learning and doing.
In the coming years, leadership development must shift from event-based training to workflow-embedded practice.
At Kokoro, we've spent years answering one question: how do you empower leaders to create the conditions for sustained performance, genuine motivation, and teams that thrive?
At this event, we bring leaders, teams, L&D professionals, and organisations who are committed to making that shift. Together, we will develop steps to make it real.
**Who is this for**
You're leading a team, department, or organisation. You're in L&D and see that traditional programmes aren't transferring to practice. You run an SME and need practical ways to develop leaders without the corporate overhead.
You've sent people to leadership programmes and watched them return motivated, and then not being able to transfer the skills in to work. You know the theory-practice gap is real. You want skills development that builds into daily workflows, not outside them.
**Event Details**

**About Kokoro**
Kokoro was founded in 2018 because we believed the way performance is measured and optimised is broken. We work with leaders and teams to build resilient, high-performing cultures where people can learn, grow, and thrive - even amid complexity and change.
We do this through our team and leadership development software and services like one-on-one coaching, team development, organisational consulting that help leaders turn intention into habit. Our approach draws on evidence from flow theory, motivation science, neurobiology, and real-world practice with teams across various industries and sizes.
Visit [bekokoro.com](https://www.bekokoro.com/) to learn more.
**Join the Kokoro community**
This is our first of 4 gatherings in 2026 - a chance to (re)connect with people making real change happen, and to introduce you to what we're building. If the culture and performance challenges you face resonate, we'd love to work with you.
Looking forward to seeing you on 26 March.

AI Salon - THE LAST CEO
**THE LAST CEO**
What if AI doesn't automate the factory floor — but the corner office?
A CEO costs 300K+. They make decisions based on dashboards, quarterly reports, market data. Pattern-matching at the highest salary level. Exactly the thing AI is provably best at.
The third AI Salon asks the uncomfortable question: If AI makes strategic decisions faster, cheaper, and more data-driven, what's left for the humans in the C-suite?
We're bringing this to **Funkhaus Wien** \- Vienna's legendary former radio broadcasting house\. Brutalist architecture\, cathedral ceilings\, and a history of transmission\. The perfect stage for asking what still needs a human voice\.
**Programme:**
🎤 **Opening** — Andreas Fraunberger, Can Nuri, Michael Raab
💬 **Keynote Conversation** — Betina Kitzler (MIT Sloan Fellow) × Andreas
🎨 **Artistic Intervention** — Sarah Rechberger (Transmedia Artist)
🧠 **Think Tank** — You decide: replace the CEO — yes or no? Then you design the org chart of 2030.
🎉 **Afterparty & Networking**

Columbus Comedy Improv Meetup at Gresso's!
Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you knew Del Close on a personal level, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup** for some fun and games!
The idea behind improv is to create entire scenes from scratch based on a suggestion from the audience. This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway*, *ComedySportz*, or *Wild 'n Out*; it could also be done to tell stories, like *Middleditch and Schwartz*. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and free!) weekly comedy event, brings the games (and occasionally different forms) for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Not only is it a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and make friendships that'll last a lifetime!
Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "Yes, And" that you'll have fun!
Long Form Night - Columbus Comedy Improv Meetup at Gresso's!

Most nights here at Improv Meetup, we play "short form" games, where the host has established rules that the players must adhere to. These scenes frequently do not tell a connected story and are focused on following those rules; games such as "Alphabet Game" where every next sentence needs to start with the next letter of the alphabet, or "Interrogation" where it's a guessing game.
Tonight is focused on "long form", where we will see groups of people come up and do a sort of improvised play. There may be rules to the structure itself to adhere to, or it may be more free form, but doing this allows players to establish a shared world, and to establish characters and callbacks. While your average game may last 2-3 minutes, a long form set will last much longer, and have 4+ people involved. This may be a more complicated night, but we will make sure you feel supported to try this out.
Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and free!) weekly comedy event, brings the games (and occasionally different forms) for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Not only is it a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and make friendships that'll last a lifetime!
Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "Yes, And" that you'll have fun!

**Abstract**
Web Forms gave .NET developers a powerful abstraction for building reusable UI controls long before design systems were a thing. Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively.
This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. We’ll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from server‑driven controls, and why they’re becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether you’re maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, you’ll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standards‑based way.
