OpenMetadata is coming to Barcelona!
Hola Barcelona
We’re kicking off the year with energy and strong community vibes - and there’s no better way to do that than getting together in person!
OpenMetadata is coming to Barcelona, and we’d love for you to join us!
This meetup is all about bringing Barcelona’s data community together for real, down-to-earth conversations about metadata, governance, and what it actually takes to build data platforms that scale.
**When: March 11, 2026 at 18:00 CET to 21:00 CET**
**What to expect:**
• Special guest: Sequra’s data team sharing their OMD journey
\- Ariadna Cuffi\, Data Governance Lead \- how Sequra operationalized governance and drove real adoption across teams\.
\- Martín Langberg\, Senior Data Engineer \- launched the OMD POC\.
\- Roman Vasilev\, built the Claude integration\.
• A session with Pere, one of OpenMetadata’s founding engineers
He’ll share behind-the-scenes stories from building OpenMetadata in the open - lessons learned, architectural decisions, and what it really takes to grow an open source data project.
• Open discussion + community sharing
We want this to be interactive. If you’re using OpenMetadata (or exploring it), we’d love for you to share your journey, challenges, or use case.
• Snacks, beer, wine & relaxed networking
After the talk, we keep it informal - good conversations, new connections, and a little bit of cerveza!
This event is about building real momentum for Barcelona’s data ecosystem in 2026 - connecting practitioners who care about metadata, data quality, lineage, governance, and open collaboration.
If you’re open to taking the mic for a few minutes to share your experience, we’d love that too!! If you are interested in presenting at our meetup, [please fill out this Call for Speakers! ](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSezlYjfwB40BgQ5HbhSqs6dDHcwMkgTeEFQtsIa6k3yOhNYjQ/viewform?usp=dialog)
Let’s build something meaningful together.
See you there.
Friendly reminder, the event starts at 6pm CET - 9pm CET
Comedians & Dragons: a live D&D comedy adventure
🐉Award-winning D&D Comedy Show in Barcelona!🐉
Join 3 comedians who almost certainly have no idea how to play Dungeons & Dragons, as they attempt to go on a live fantasy adventure!
Questing ain't easy however, especially when the audience can change the outcome of dice rolls. Will our adventurers survive? Based on previous audiences, almost certainly not!
No knowledge of D&D or anything like it required (rules lawyers absolutely welcome though). So come and watch some ridiculous fantasy characters make some very poor decisions!

The WORST Pub Quiz - Trivia for Terrible People
Do you know at what temperature steel beams melt?
Ever googled what's the oldest recorded sex toy?
How many school shootings has America had this year?
The Worst Pub Quiz is a hilariously awful twist on traditional pub quizzes written by comedians for people who know too much about too many horrible things. Be it serial killers, ages of consent, or women's studies, there's a horrible question for everyone.
Questions are factual, verifiable, and extremely funny. Join us for a sexy brain-on-brain competition to see which team stands tallest (and therefore, should hang their heads the lowest) in a sea of terrible people.
Teams typically consist of groups of 4, but if you have no friends, don't worry. We'll pair lonely, sad, friendless people together on the night.
Tickets in advance are 8 euros or 10 euros at the door

Optimizing AI Inference: How to Cut Costs, Latency & Energy
Running production-level AI (especially LLMs and generative models) is facing a wall: cost, performance and hardware availability. Cloud bills are skyrocketing, latency is impacting user experience, and reliance on high-end GPUs is creating a bottleneck. On top of that, new regulations such as the EU AI Act are increasingly requiring transparency on energy consumption.
Green AI is an emerging field dedicated to making AI environmentally sustainable without compromising model performance. This discipline goes hand in hand with engineering efficiency: using fewer resources to achieve equivalent results. By optimizing models to reduce energy consumption, we address two critical goals at once: we significantly improve operational margins and scalability, and we minimize the carbon emissions.
In this session, we will demonstrate how to address these challenges using **GAISSA**, a UPC spin-off project that automates AI model optimization. We will show a **Live Demo** covering:
* A walk-through of how a standard model is compressed and adapted for efficiency
* A Return on Investment (ROI) comparison of a standard vs. an optimized model
* A visualization of cost reduction (€), latency (ms), and emissions (CO2)
**Who Are We**
We are the team behind GAISSA, researchers and engineers from Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC). We specialize in AI efficiency and model optimization, and our mission is to make advanced AI accessible, affordable, and compliant with future standards.

**Location and sponsor**
This event is sponsered by **basetis**, a technology consultancy that stands out not just for its IT services, but for its radical approach to corporate structure. The event will take place in their office, which is located in **La Pedrera (Casa Milà)**. The access to the building will be by **Carrer Provença** entrance.
**Event schedule**
Doors open from **18:30** to **19:00.** Please join us after the presentation for pizza and drinks to network with other attendees.

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!
CBusData - Discover the Power of Window Functions
Window functions have nothing to do with the Windows operating system but provide a “window” to a result set when used in SQL queries. They are powerful, set-based methods to view data in unexpected ways. Window functions provide easy, set-based solutions to solve some common problems:
* Using running totals
* Performing operations in intervals
* Identifying data gaps and islands
* Performing aggregates without losing detail
Many people are confused by window functions and do not know how to use them properly. This session will explore window functions, how they work, and how to use them. Demonstrations with several examples will solidify how window functions can simplify queries and make them more powerful.
