**Join us for another Tech Talk at Glovo HQ 🚀**
We’re opening the doors of Yellow Park for the **Data Science Tech Meetup on Thursday, June 11th**, to explore how to scale advanced AI for real-world product discovery and categorization.
Glovo’s team and Anna Sánchez from Wallapop will join the conversation to share their experiences building AI solutions at scale for product discovery and categorization
* **Deploying LLMs at Scale at Delivery Hero:** Our very own team **[Aleix López](https://www.linkedin.com/in/aleixlopezpascual/)** and **[Pablo Medin](https://www.linkedin.com/in/pablojmed/)**[a](https://www.linkedin.com/in/pablojmed/) will share what they've learned deploying LLMs in production at Delivery Hero for food categorization across millions of products and multiple markets. Rather than focusing on the model itself, we'll dive into the parts that don't usually make it into papers or blog posts: hard-won takeaways on evaluation, cost optimization, and stakeholder management.
* **The Path to Semantic Search at Wallapop: [Anna Sánchez Espunyes](https://www.linkedin.com/in/anna-s%C3%A1nchez-espunyes/)**[ ](https://www.linkedin.com/in/anna-s%C3%A1nchez-espunyes/)from Wallapop will talk about how the company moved beyond rigid keyword matching. She’ll break down how they use embeddings to understand what users actually mean when typing vague or misspelled queries into a constantly changing inventory of 100M listings.
**🎤 AGENDA:**
* 18:30 – 19:00 \| Deploying LLMs at Scale at Delivery Hero \(Aleix López & Pablo Medina\) \+ 10 min Q&A

* 19:30 – 20:30 \| Drinks & Food

Thursday\, June 11th\, 2026 \| 18:30 to 20:30
**📍 WHERE:**

🚀Skills-Based Hiring in Practice: How to Hire for Capability, Not Just CVs
## **Details**
**LUMA REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED TO ATTEND:** https://luma.com/wox7xulo
🚀 Hiring is changing. Are you?
For years, recruitment has been built around CVs, job titles and years of experience. But let’s be honest: the best talent is not always the one with the “perfect” background on paper.
That’s why the next Talented People session by Talent-R is all about: **HR & Recruitment: Skills-Based Hiring in Practice: How to Hire for Capability, Not Just CVs**
We’ll dive into how companies can identify real potential, assess capabilities and build hiring processes that go beyond traditional filters. Because great hiring is not about collecting impressive CVs. It’s about finding people who can actually do, grow and make an impact.
Expect honest conversations, practical insights and real experiences from people who live recruitment from the inside. And, of course, great food, drinks and the Talent-R vibe. 🧡
**⚠️ Your spot is only confirmed once you register on Luma.**

From Silos to...What? Collision or Shared Practice
**Important:**
* Please sign up on the following website to complete your sign up: [https://uxdx.com/community/community-barcelona-2026-06-11/](https://uxdx.com/community/community-barcelona-2026-06-11/)
An in-person series of meetups focused on helping product & engineering teams in Copenhagen bridge the gap between UX, Product, Design, and Dev, and to build better products faster, together.
**Agenda:**
**18:30 - 19:00** Opening and registration
**19:00 - 19:15** Welcome from the UXDX Ambassadors and Preply
**19:15 - 19:45** Talk 1: Oana Stroe, Product Design Lead at Hubtype
**19:50 - 20:15** Talk 2: Mert Tas, Principal Product Manager at Vista
**20:30 - 21:00** Closing and networking
## **✨ Talks**
**Talk by Oana Stroe -** [The Silo is Dead. Long Live the Silo.](https://uxdx.com/session/the-silo-is-dead-long-live-the-silo/)
This talk explores how AI is reshaping ownership, craft and collaboration in cross-functional teams, and why the specialists who feel most threatened might actually be the ones who matter most. Expect honest observations and some uncomfortable questions.
**Talk by Mert Tas -** [AI, Collaboration, and Hidden Tradeoffs of Product Teams](https://uxdx.com/session/ai-collaboration-and-hidden-tradeoffs-of-product-teams/)
Generative AI is changing how product, design, and engineering teams work together, from how ideas are explored to how decisions are discussed and documented. In this session, Mert will share practical experiences from working on complex design and personalization products at Vistaprint: where AI genuinely improves quality, shared context, and speed, and where it risks creating shallow alignment, coordination overhead, or endless artifact generation instead of deeper thinking. The session is intended less as a prescription and more as an honest reflection on the new collaboration tradeoffs many teams are already starting to feel.
## **About UXDX**
UXDX helps teams shift from project based delivery to empowered, autonomous product teams. We host global conferences and over 150 free community events each year, bringing together UX, Product, Design and Development practitioners to share how real teams build better products faster.

**NeuroCiencia y Espiritualidad ✨🧠 El Cerebro y su Capacidad Natural para trascender**
Tras años de investigación conectando los descubrimientos de la ciencia con las grandes tradiciones de la espiritualidad, emerge una idea profundamente reveladora: la trascendencia no es un mito ni un privilegio reservado a unos pocos, sino una capacidad natural del ser humano, inscrita en nuestra propia biología y presente como potencial en toda persona.
En esta conferencia exploraremos el patrón común que comparten ocho vías distintas de trascendencia, comprendiendo cómo cada una de ellas puede ampliar nuestra percepción, transformar nuestra conciencia y abrir acceso a estados de mayor claridad, lucidez y conexión.
Una invitación a descubrir qué significa realmente “pensar con el cerebro completo” y recuperar una forma más profunda, integrada y consciente de experimentar la realidad, más allá de las palabras.
**Ponente**: Salva López, músico experto en crecimiento personal a través de la música, es conferenciante internacional y ha publicado tres libros.

**Tech Talk: Secure Developer Environments in the Age of AI Agents**
**Speaker:** Patrick Brown (Coder)
**Abstract:** Federal engineering teams are under pressure to ship faster while meeting some of the most demanding security and compliance requirements in the world. In this talk, Patrick Brown of Coder explores how cloud development environments (CDEs) give agencies a foundation to accelerate software delivery without sacrificing control — and why that foundation matters even more as AI-powered coding agents enter the workflow. He'll cover how CDEs keep source code off endpoints, enforce zero-trust access patterns, and provide the consistent, ephemeral infrastructure that both human developers and AI agents need to operate safely at scale.

The End of Human-Scale AppSec
For decades, application security has been built around a simple assumption: humans are the primary producers of software. We train developers, review their pull requests, model threats in design meetings, and build controls around human decision-making. That assumption is rapidly breaking down.
As AI coding assistants evolve into autonomous software agents, organizations will gain access to an effectively unlimited engineering workforce capable of producing software at a speed no human team can match. The pressure to adopt these systems will be driven not by curiosity, but by competition. Companies that successfully harness agentic development will ship faster, iterate faster, and potentially outpace those that do not.
This shift forces a fundamental rethinking of application security. The future of AppSec is not securing developers—it is governing an agentic workforce. Threat modeling, code review, security testing, and change management will not disappear, but they will need to operate at machine speed and increasingly be performed by systems rather than people. In this talk, Ken Johnson, CTO of DryRun Security, explores what the next decade of application security may look like, the assumptions that will no longer hold, and why security professionals must understand these systems deeply if they hope to influence the future rather than react to it.

Profs & Pints Northern Virginia: Can Artificial Intelligence “See”?
[Profs and Pints Northern Virginia](https://www.profsandpints.com/washingtondc) presents: **“Can Artificial Intelligence ‘See’?”** A look at how humans and artificial intelligence systems interpret the visual world in fundamentally different ways, with Arryn Robbins, assistant professor of psychology at the University of Richmond and cognitive scientist who researches visual attention, perception, and category learning.
[Advance tickets: $13.50 plus sales tax and processing fees. Available at [https://events.ticketleap.com/tickets/profsandpints/nv-can-AI-see](https://events.ticketleap.com/tickets/profsandpints/nv-can-AI-see) .]
Artificial intelligence can now identify faces, categorize objects, describe scenes, and outperform humans on certain visual tasks. But does AI actually “see” the world the way that people do? Or does it arrive at correct answers using representations that differ markedly from human perception?
Join Arryn Robbins of the University of Richmond for a fascinating exploration of how humans and AI construct meaning from visual information and a look at comparisons between human perception and AI that reveal just how dynamic and context-dependent our own visual systems really are.
Dr. Robbins, who previously has given excellent Profs and Pints talks on flaws and biases in human visual perception, will draw from research in cognitive science, visual perception, and AI vision systems.
She’ll explain how human perception is not merely a simple recording of the world, but an active process shaped by expectations, context, goals, and recent experience. You’ll learn how humans form flexible mental representations that allow us to recognize objects across changing environments and conditions, and why those representations continuously adapt as we interact with the world.
Many AI systems, by contrast, learn visual categories through statistical patterns in data. They can produce impressive results, but sometimes they also produce strange and unexpected failures, and sometimes they classify images in ways that seem strange to us.
Dr. Robbins will discuss what these differences reveal about the nature of perception itself, and why the mismatch between human and AI representations matters for technologies like self-driving cars, medical imaging, facial recognition, and automated surveillance.
Important for anyone trying to understand the rapidly growing role of AI in daily life, this talk will explore one of the biggest questions in cognitive science and artificial intelligence: What does it actually mean to “see” and understand the world? (Doors: $17, or $15 with a student ID. Listed time is for doors. The talk starts 30 minutes later.)
