**Join us for the 7th Data Mesh Belgium Meetup on April 21st, 2026!** This time [AE](https://www.ae.be/) will host this event in their office in Leuven. This evening promises to be a deep dive into cutting-edge topics around Data Mesh. Also join us at [Data Mesh Live ](https://datameshlive.com/)on June 11-12, a two day conference providing insights into the challenges and solutions for your Data Mesh journey. **SCHEDULE** * **18h 00 - 18h 40:** Food & Drinks * **18h 40 - 18h 45:** Welcome by Tom De Wolf * **18h 45 - 19h 30:** Open Standards for Data Mesh by Simon Harrer * **19h 30 - 19h 45:** Short break * **19h 45 - 20h 30:** You Don’t Need a Data Mesh to Start with Data Products by Jef Van Hulle * **20h 30 - 21h 00:** Networking **TALK ABSTRACTS** ► **"Open Standards for Data Mesh"** by Simon Harrer Open Standards are gaining ground in data mesh, helping prevent vendor lock-in and drive innovation. We explore the key standards for data contracts, data products, observability, semantics, and more, looking at where they come from, where they are heading, and how they compare. You will leave with a clear view of which standards matter now and which to watch in the future. ► **"You Don’t Need a Data Mesh to Start with Data Products"** by Jef Van Hulle Many Data Mesh journeys start with large-scale transformations. In reality, that “big bang” approach often becomes a blocker. Jef shares a pragmatic alternative: introducing data products incrementally within existing teams, systems, and governance. By applying product thinking — clear ownership, shared definitions, and lifecycle management — early value was delivered while gradually shifting how data is managed. Instead of starting with a full Data Mesh transformation, this approach shows how data products can be a realistic first step toward it. **SPEAKER BIOS** ► **[Simon Harrer](https://www.linkedin.com/in/simonharrer/)** \- Co\-Founder and CEO of Entropy Data He is a software developer at heart who has since turned to the dark side — the world of data.

Let's play Lorenzo il Magnifico, a very good eurogame, with a tight ressource management. "*Lorenzo il Magnifico is a complex and strategic game with no luck dependence. Players will place their Family Members in different areas of the city to perform actions, but these Family Members are never the same as they change value every round. They will conquer new territories, sponsor magnificent buildings, encourage brave ventures and surround themselves with important characters. If they are smart and powerful enough, they can attract some of the most renowned contemporary celebrities and use their powers.*" [BGG Link](https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/203993/lorenzo-il-magnifico) I will also have the expansions "House of the Renaissance" and the "Pazzi Conspiracy" which don't bring many extra rules, but introduce more variability in the game.

In a world full of distractions and temptations, turning inward is essential to understanding your true place in life. Get to know yourself more deeply and join us in Mechelen for collective meditations every Thursday evening. The session on **April 23rd** will guide you through the first step of Self-realisation. Self-realisation is the awakening of the Kundalini (the subtle inner energy) which resides in every human being. When awakened, the Kundalini rises and enlightens our true Self (Spirit), leaving us in a state of meditation, or inner stillness. Each week, you'll learn meditation techniques designed to deepen your understanding of this subtle energy—and of who you truly are within. Step by step, you'll learn how to integrate this unique form of meditation into your daily life—gaining greater clarity, wisdom, joy, and understanding along the way. We invite you to join like-minded people in a supportive environment, where you can explore the transformative power of thoughtless awareness. Connect with others, share experiences, and deepen the connection with your own Spirit.

**At [Isabel Group](https://www.isabel.eu/en), the conviction was clear: certain processes could be accelerated with the help of AI. What they needed was support on two fronts, identifying which processes had the most potential, and a partner to help implement the solutions.** Through a Start AI trajectory with **[Ixor](www.ixor.be)**, they zeroed in on supporting services, procurement, HR, and customer service, deliberately leaving IT Ops & Dev out of scope. The process started with conversations: talking to everyone involved, understanding what they actually spent their time on, and mapping where the friction was. From there, thanks to the structured approach of the Start AI trajectory, each process was scored on feasibility and impact. Three clear priorities emerged. **[Roel Liers](https://www.linkedin.com/in/roel-l-b594631/)** (Head of Digitalisation at Isabel Group) and **[Martijn Leplae](https://www.linkedin.com/in/martijn-leplae-2258341a5/)** (AI engineer at Ixor) share how that journey went: * **Finding the right processes.** Scoring workflows across supporting services on feasibility and impact, surfacing the overlooked ones, not just the obvious candidates. * **Making processes AI-ready.** Restructuring and rethinking workflows before building anything, because the quality of the automation depends on the quality of the process underneath. **Date** Wednesday 22/04/26 **Location** [Ixor, Schuttersvest 75, 2800 Mechelen](https://www.google.com/maps?sca_esv=3d16839f334d68f5&rlz=1C5CHFA_enBE1133BE1133&sxsrf=ANbL-n41HRp_bji2meG1ikVLAPIz93Cunw:1769513461367&kgmid=/g/1pxwt4kls&shem=bdsle,ptotple,shrtsdl&shndl=30&kgs=61800e9c5aeb0c1b&um=1&ie=UTF-8&fb=1&gl=be&sa=X&geocode=KcOEjoHS5cNHMa9y5riKRn8U&daddr=Schuttersvest+75,+2800+Mechelen) **Timing** *Doors* \- 18:00 *TechTalk* \- 18:30 until 19:30\, followed by networking & drinks *End -* 21:00

Has it been just you and your phone lately? It’s easy to feel connected yet still feel alone. Digital interactions can’t replace the warmth of eye contact, real laughter, and meaningful conversations. True connection happens when we step away from our screens and show up as ourselves — present, open, and engaged. At Fast Friending, we create spaces where real relationships begin. - just genuine conversations and shared moments. Because nothing compares to meeting face-to-face, discovering common ground, and walking away with a connection that truly feels real. **You will need to buy a ticket for attending -** [https://brussels25thapril.eventbrite.co.uk](https://brussels25thapril.eventbrite.co.uk) \*You can use any debit or credit card to purchase your ticket at PayPal checkout.

This session introduces Squad: an open-source framework for multi-agent orchestration that lets you define teams of AI agents with specific roles, responsibilities, and expertise. We'll progress from Copilot basics to the Copilot CLI, explore how Agents add autonomy, and see how Instructions and Skills let you customize agent behavior. Then, the climax: a live demo where a Squad team of 3 agents (Lead, Developer, Tester) stands up and builds a working application in real-time, showcasing true multi-agent collaboration. Whether you're new to AI or exploring how to scale your use of Copilot, this session will show you what's possible when agents work as a team. **YouTube Link** TBD
