Spree Weekly Meetup// Meet & Rave
**Everyone's welcome ❤️**
Every Friday evening we meet up by the Spree — music playing, people arriving from all over the world, and a night that usually goes way longer than anyone planned.
No agenda. No organised icebreakers.
Just a relaxed spot by the river where you can show up, grab a drink, and actually meet people worth knowing.
We've been doing this for over 8 years, and the best thing about it is still the same — you never quite know who you're going to end up talking to.
Come solo, come with friends, come fresh off a flight. The crowd is always a mix of Berliners, expats, travellers, and people who just moved here and are figuring it out.
After a while the group usually spreads out to bars or clubs — or just stays by the water.
You go wherever the night takes you.
**Stay in the loop — join our Telegram group:** Spree Ravers → https://linktr.ee/clockworkbanana
📍 By the Spree, next to Schlesisches Tor U-Bahn — opposite the East Side Gallery, right by the Cage on Water → [https://maps.app.goo.gl/vj1DhSP3apijCmRbA](https://maps.app.goo.gl/vj1DhSP3apijCmRbA)
🕒 From 9 PM — people arrive gradually, so if it's quiet at first, just hang tight
See you Friday ✨
Lean Coffee for Managers & Leaders
Join us for an upcoming in-person Lean Coffee meetup. Lean Coffee is a lightly-structured meeting format where the attendees create the agenda.
Bring your management challenges; whether you're managing people, products, processes or beyond, and solve them together with peers from a diverse set of backgrounds.
This event is great for anybody trying to create better ways of working and wants to share with + learn from others trying to do the same.

Africa Day 2026 in Berlin
**Move Capital. Move Talent. Move Africa.**
Africa is the youngest continent on earth.
By 2050, 1 in 5 people globally will be African.
Yet African startups still receive less than 1% of global VC funding.
What is the real problem?
Is it time to tap into the estimated $95–100 billion USD in remittances sent by the diaspora?
This Africa Day, in partnership with the Westerwelle Foundation, which has just published The German–Africa Investment Report, we will go deep into the gaps to explore :
📈 How Africa’s startup ecosystem is growing
🌍 Which New markets are rising, and how to pay attention to them
💡 Which segments pose the greatest returns outside of FinTech
🤝 How to take the best next step as an investor, proven by research.
The event welcomes:
Founders, Investors, Operators, the diaspora, and Institutional partners looking to make their moves into the African Market with intention.
To our network members and partners who have been looking to make the move from remittances → to investment, from fragmented effort → to ecosystem building.
This event is for you.
Culminating from this event will be our delegation trip to #Nigeria and #Ghana in September in Collaboration with GITEX Nigeria and South Africa, and Namibia in November.
Move Africa.

**SCHEDULE**
18:30
Arrival
Networking reception
Guests arrive. No job titles on badges — just names and country of origin. The room begins to know itself before the panel starts.
19:00
Opening
Welcome & the diagnosis — 10 mins
The host frames the evening in plain language. Not a speech — a provocation. Four sentences stating the diagnosis. Then the panel takes the stage.
19:10
Panel · 50 mins
The conversation — moderated, flowing, unscripted
Four panellists. One moderator. The conversation moves through the diagnosis naturally — from the wealth gap, to the talent drain, to the trust deficit, to the intention trap. No fixed questions. The moderator's job is to keep the room honest and the conversation moving toward one inevitable question: so what do we do about it tonight?
20:00
Panel · Open floor
The room joins the conversation — 20 mins
Not a Q&A. The moderator selects three or four people in the room — pre-identified — to add their perspective. Brief, pointed contributions that deepen the diagnosis rather than repeat it. The panel responds. The room feels heard.
20:20
Break
Drinks — 20 mins
The panel comes off stage and into the room. Guests speak directly with panellists. The conversation continues informally — which means it deepens.

Jhana Meditation for Beginners
The course will start this Saturday at 10am. It will be in studio R at CCB studios. [https://maps.app.goo.gl/rFovxE7eG7HV6uB46](https://maps.app.goo.gl/rFovxE7eG7HV6uB46). Buzz for CCB studios and then walk through to the second courtyard. We will try to start right around 10. There will be tea available.
Please dress in comfortable clothes, maybe wearing a few layers. Theres some blankets, yoga mats, cushions and chairs in the room that you can use.
The plan will be for us to do some small discussions at the top and then start discussing theory before doing some meditations of increasing length and then closing with some time for Q & A. We will take a short break in the middle as well. The plan is to go from 10-12 roughly but we may end a little closer to 11:30 depending.
This week will function primarily as a simple introduction to meditation and some topics in the space but we will also discuss what the Jhanas are.
Looking forward! Any questions please just message me.
[face to face] professional communication exercise
Join this Professional Communication session — to sharpen the skills for architectural pitches, elevator pitches, interviews. This time we meet in the Monbijou park.
💡 How it works
The event is split into two parts:
1. **Communication (10 minute rounds)** – One participant answers a round of design and behavioral questions. Each other participant gets to ask him one question.
2. **Feedback Round** – The group provides feedback on communication, structure, and clarity. Constructive criticism is encouraged.
💡You will be asked:
* **Light design problems** (high-level reasoning, not code)
* **Behavioral questions** (“Tell me about yourself”, “Describe a challenge you faced...”)
No need to prepare anything in advance — just bring curiosity and an open mind.
💡Note: location is the entrance to Monbijou park

Data & Analytics Wednesday - Finding Product Insights
**The Behavior Gap: Where Products Win or Lose**
Teams today have more data than ever, and yet many still struggle to understand why customers adopt, engage with, or abandon their products. Teams sprint, ship faster, and chase more signals… all while metrics stall and confidence drops. The missing piece isn’t more data. It’s often the behavioral insight between the metrics, explaining why the numbers move in the first place. Dashboards can tell you what customers did, but understanding why they did it (and how to influence what they do next) requires a deeper blend of insights. This session is about closing that gap.
Drawing from real-world experience designing and scaling products as [ZoCo Design](https://zocodesign.com/)’s CEO, [Lacey](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) will share how to cut through the noise and identify the insights that actually change behavior—moving people, and moving metrics. You’ll learn:
* Why understanding customer behavior is a quant and qual challenge
* How to spot the signals that actually predict behavior change
* Where AI accelerates insight, and where it creates distraction
* How to get meaningfully closer to customers, without adding more tools
This talk reframes how to evaluate performance and identify what levers actually improve it, helping your team to make smarter bets with greater confidence. Every meaningful outcome is driven by behavior change. And when you know how to design for behavior, you stop guessing, and start building things that work.
**About Our Speaker**
[Lacey Picazo](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) is the Founder and CEO of ZoCo, a healthcare product studio that turns complex, high-stakes ideas into products that drive real-world adoption. She partners with healthcare organizations to uncover critical care delivery insights, focus product strategy through behavior design, and build solutions that patients and providers actually use.
