Design se mění. Designéři dnes píšou kód, dělají PR, shipují featury. AI nástroje změnily to, co je reálně možné zvládnout sám. A hranice mezi designem a engineeringem se stírá rychleji, než stíháme přepisovat job descriptiony. Design engineering není o tom, že designér trochu umí kód. Je to posun v tom, kde design končí a co všechno může ovlivnit. UX Monday 13. dubna je o tom, jak to vypadá v praxi. Žádné teorie, spíše živé ukázky designérů, kteří tím žijí každý den. **Dva speakeři, dva reálné setupy, dvě živé ukázky:** 🎤 **[Jakub Šalmík](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jakubsalmik/)** \- Design Engineer @**[Duvo.ai](Duvo.ai)** 🎤 **[Albert Zikmund](https://www.linkedin.com/in/albertzikmund/)** \- Designer @**[Pencil.dev](Pencil.dev)** Přijďte se podívat, jak vypadá budoucnost designu dnes.

Hi all! My name is Cara, and I am a native English speaker from America living in Prague. This a meet up for t**hose learning English as a second language** and want the **opportunity to practice**. It will be a fun and relaxed setting where we will play games to **promote English conversations** or have some kind of activity. This club will meet **every other (two Mondays each month) Monday evening.** The goal is for each person to walk away having learned new English words and have more confidence when speaking in English. Please, bring some money if you want to purchase a coffee from Evento. **This event is sponsored by a church.** The church that sponsors this English meet up is **Církev bratrská, Bohnice** [https://www.cbbohnice.cz](https://www.cbbohnice.cz/) . We want to live lives that are reflective of Jesus. Like Jesus we want to help others in meeting a practical need, in this case that would be speaking in English. At the end of the English club, we will extend an invite to anyone who is interested in exploring faith, wants to know more about Jesus, or wants to meet up to read from the Bible. However, we will never trick you into attending and will always be honest about the content of our meetings. *You do not have to attend religious events to be a part of English Club.*

It's open gaming night again! Come alone (or with friends) and meet some new people to game with. Just look for the 'Open Gaming' table(s) and feel free to sit in. We'll keep the games pretty light, so if you don't know many games, don't feel intimidated. Instruction is always available. (70,- gaming fee still applies)

Learning Czech can be hard and demotivating, especially when studying alone. **This meetup is a shared study session where we come together to stay focused, motivated, and make progress — each in our own way.** This is a co-learning / co-studying session, not a class. There is no teacher, no lesson, and no study material provided.

Whether you’re just exploring the idea or ready to take the next step, this session will help you understand how the system works and how to navigate it with confidence. Join us for an evening designed mostly for expats, starting with a short founder talk on the story behind Finaram and why simplifying mortgages for foreigners matters today. We’ll then break down the current real estate market, walk you through the key steps of the buying process, and share what you should (and shouldn’t) be asking when dealing with agents, banks, and sellers. **Why attend:** * Get a realistic view of the Czech property market in 2026 * Understand the full buying process step by step * Learn how to avoid common mistakes when dealing with agents * Ask your questions directly to experienced professionals **Event Schedule** 18:00 - Doors open 18:30-18:50 – Founder intro (Sergei Kavaleryan): the story behind Finaram 18:50-20:00 – Advisor talk (Robin Petrásek): how mortgages work in the Czech Republic 20:00-20:15 – Q&A 20:15-21:00 – Networking time (drinks and snacks provided) **About the Speakers** **Sergei Kavaleryan** is the founder of Finaram, an online mortgage guidance platform built for professionals and expats in the Czech Republic. He created Finaram after seeing how complex and unclear the mortgage process can be, especially for foreigners navigating a new financial system. Before building Finaram, he explored the market from both a user and analytical perspective, identifying key gaps in transparency, accessibility, and user experience. Finaram combines data-driven tools with guidance from licensed advisors to help clients understand their options, estimate affordability, and move through the mortgage process with clarity and structure. His focus is on simplifying decision-making and helping people approach property financing in the Czech Republic with confidence. **Robin Petrásek** is the founder of Expats Finance, a mortgage advisory firm focused exclusively on expats in the Czech Republic. With over 16 years of experience in banking and finance, and more than a decade specializing in expat clients, he has personally helped over 400 foreign buyers successfully secure property financing. His team has arranged more than 2.5 billion CZK in mortgages, with a 100% success rate for clients who moved forward with a purchase. Robin focuses on making complex mortgage rules clear and helping expats navigate the Czech system with confidence. He collaborates with Finaram as a trusted mortgage advisor for expat clients.

There is a wisdom that lives in the sea — in its depth, its movement, its light. In this three-part series, we begin each ceremony with cacao to root into the body, soften, and arrive. From there, breath becomes a doorway into the inner waters — into movement, feeling, release, and deeper contact with what lives within. Each ceremony explores a different quality of the inner ocean: Fluidity — trusting the flow of life Depth — the courage to feel Luminosity — the light beneath the surface You are welcome to join the full journey or come to any ceremony individually. Each session is a complete experience on its own, while also forming part of a deeper unfolding process. DEPTH - This evening is an invitation to reconnect with your emotional depth, meet what is present without avoidance, and access inner strength and resilience. This practice includes intensive breathwork and cacao. It is not suitable for those who are pregnant or have epilepsy, glaucoma, serious heart conditions, severe cardiovascular disease, unmanaged severe hypertension, or acute psychiatric disorders. If you have any health concerns, please reach out in advance so the practice can be adapted safely. If you have food allergies or sensitivities, please also let us know beforehand. When: Thursdays 9/4, 16/4, 23/4 at 19:00 Price: 450 CZK per ceremony / 1100 CZK full cycle via atmaprague@gmail.com

\#\# The Premise What if you could take any idea — half-baked, borrowed, ridiculous, too early, too late — and run it through a gauntlet of AI agents and sharp minds until it either becomes bulletproof or reveals exactly why it doesn't work? That's this meetup. \*\*The Hypothetical Agentic Unicorn Clinic\*\* is a structured, playful, and rigorous session where we take startup ideas — yours, someone else's, totally made up — and improve them in real time using agentic workflows, collective intelligence, and honest feedback. No judgment. No stakes. Just ideas getting better. \-\-\- \#\# Why "Hypothetical"? The hardest part of sharing an idea isn't the idea — it's the fear of being judged for having it. So we made it hypothetical. You're not pitching your life's work. You're not asking for funding. You're not committing to anything. You're running a \*\*thought experiment\*\*: \*What would it take for this idea to become a unicorn?\* That framing changes everything. When the idea is hypothetical, you can be honest. You can poke holes. You can say "this probably doesn't work because..." and someone else can say "unless you do X." You can disagree without it being personal. You can be wrong without it mattering. The best insights come when the stakes feel low enough to think clearly. Hypothetical Idea Submission Form https://form.typeform.com/to/CPRbn0RL \-\-\- \#\# What Actually Happens \*\*You bring an idea. Any idea.\*\* It could be: \- Something you've been sitting on but are afraid to say out loud \- A startup you saw and thought "that's almost right but\.\.\." \- A totally absurd concept you find interesting \- A real thing you're building and want to stress\-test anonymously \- Something an AI suggested to you that you couldn't stop thinking about \*\*We run it through the clinic.\*\* The group — with the help of AI agents — takes the idea through a structured improvement loop: 1\. \*\*Diagnosis\*\*: What's the actual insight here? What problem does this solve? 2\. \*\*Challenge\*\*: Where does this break? What assumptions is it making? 3\. \*\*Repair\*\*: How do we fix the broken parts without losing the core? 4\. \*\*Amplification\*\*: If this worked\, what would make it a unicorn? 5\. \*\*Verdict\*\*: Is it viable\, pivotable\, or dead on arrival — and why? Each round takes about 20 minutes. We run 4-6 ideas per session. \-\-\- \#\# The Role of AI Agents This is an agentic meetup — so agents do real work, not just window dressing. During the session, we'll use agents to: \- \*\*Research the market\*\* in real time: Is anyone building this? What does the landscape look like? \- \*\*Steelman the idea\*\*: Generate the strongest possible version of the argument for why this works \- \*\*Identify failure modes\*\*: Systematically surface the ways this breaks \- \*\*Propose pivots\*\*: Suggest modifications that preserve the core insight while fixing structural problems \- \*\*Draft a one\-pager\*\*: Turn the improved idea into a coherent pitch summary The agents accelerate the process and introduce angles the group might miss. The humans provide judgment, context, and the instinct for what actually matters. This is what governed agents with flexible orchestration looks like in practice — not automation replacing thinking, but amplifying it. Hypothetical Idea Submission Form https://form.typeform.com/to/CPRbn0RL \#\# Who Should Come You don't need to have a startup. You don't need to be a founder. You don't need to have the idea ready when you register. You should come if: \- You're curious about how AI agents can be used for real strategic thinking \- You want to practice the skill of rapid idea development and critique \- You enjoy building on other people's ideas and having yours built on \- You want to see agentic workflows in action\, not just hear about them \- You want to contribute to a room of builders who think seriously about ideas \*\*What we're looking for in participants:\*\* \- Technically literate enough to follow an agentic workflow \- Willing to be both generous and honest in feedback \- Comfortable with ambiguity and unfinished thinking \- Curious\, not defensive You don't have to be an expert. You have to be willing to think in public. \-\-\- \#\# Format & Practicalities \*\*Duration:\*\* 2-2.5 hours \*\*Format:\*\* In-person (Prague) with livestream option \*\*Ideas per session:\*\* 4–6 \*\*Each idea:\*\* \~20 minutes of structured clinic work \*\*Timeline:\*\* \- 18:00 — Doors open\, idea submissions collected \- 18:30 — Brief intro: the format\, the rules\, the spirit \- 18:45 — Clinic begins \(3–4 ideas\, 20 min each\) \- 20:15 — Open discussion: what did we learn? \- 20:30 — Drinks\, conversations\, follow\-ups \*\*How to submit an idea:\*\* Fill out a short form before the event (2 sentences max — idea + the core assumption). We select 3–4 ideas for the session. All submissions are treated with discretion. You can submit anonymously if you prefer. Hypothetical Idea Submission Form https://form.typeform.com/to/CPRbn0RL \#\# The Rules 1\. \*\*No bad ideas\.\*\* There are only ideas at different stages of development\. 2\. \*\*Critique the idea\, not the person\.\*\* "This doesn't work because X" not "you haven't thought this through\." 3\. \*\*Build before you destroy\.\*\* Steelman first\, then challenge\. 4\. \*\*Hypothetical protects everyone\.\*\* No one is committed to building what we discuss\. 5\. \*\*Confidentiality by default\.\*\* What's shared in the clinic stays in the clinic\. \-\-\- \#\# Why This Matters Most ideas die not because they're bad — but because the person holding them never found the right room to test them. The clinic is that room. It's also a live demonstration of what agentic tools can do for strategic thinking. Not AI replacing judgment, but AI extending it — doing the research, generating alternatives, stress-testing assumptions — so the humans in the room can focus on what they do best: connecting patterns, making calls, and knowing when something is worth pursuing. \*\*When execution becomes cheap, the premium moves to orientation.\*\* The clinic is practice for that skill.

A straightforward, grounded men’s gathering about navigating difficult periods — stress, emotional heaviness, burnout, and the moments when life feels unclear. It’s a space where men talk honestly, listen to each other without judgment, and learn practical tools for staying steady during challenging phases. You can share or stay quiet — both are welcome. What matters is being in a room where you don’t have to pretend you’re fine. Good for men who want clarity, brotherhood, stability, and a real conversation about what’s actually going on under the surface. Facilitated by Zdeny Cibulka and Prabodh Prem. 300 CZK, https://vev.co/atma-community-space-praha

Who defines the solution when design tools can prototype instantly? What even distinguishes product thinking from design thinking anymore? ​You’ll hear from: * ​\*\*[Vaska Vlahova](https://www.linkedin.com/in/vlahova/?utm_source=luma)\*\*, Staff Product Designer at [Qonto](https://qonto.com/en?utm_source=luma) * ​\*\*[Florian Herlicq](https://www.linkedin.com/in/florianherlicq/?utm_source=luma)\*\*, Lead Product Manager at [Orus](https://www.orus.eu/?utm_source=luma) * ​\*\*[Justine Potin](https://www.linkedin.com/in/justine-potin-1ab9a437/?utm_source=luma)\*\*, Product Manager at [Finary](https://finary.com/en?utm_source=luma) ​**Moderated by:** * ​\*\*[Kate Mas](https://www.linkedin.com/in/kate-mas/?skipRedirect=true&utm_source=luma),\*\* Career Strategist at [messy careers](https://katemas.me/?utm_source=luma) (ex-Qonto, ex-Preply) — guiding the discussion on blurred boundaries and future-ready skills in product and design ​This isn’t a “Product Manager vs Designer” debate. It’s a conversation about what happens when traditional role boundaries stop making sense. ​**What we’ll explore:** * ​Where Product Manager and Design responsibilities are already merging * ​How AI is changing product discovery, decision-making, and execution * ​The risks of blurred ownership (and how to avoid them) * ​What skills will actually matter going forward * ​How to operate effectively in a world where roles are less defined ​Expect a candid, practical discussion—less theory, more real-world shifts you’re likely already feeling. ​Come if you’re a Product Manager, Designer, or product leader trying to make sense of your role in this transition—and what to do about it. ​**A friendly note:** Guests are encouraged to buy a drink to support our hosts **Le Comptoir Avalon**. ​**Agenda** * ​18:30 — Doors open * ​19:00–19:10 — Intro * ​19:10–20:10 — Panel (60 min) * ​20:10–20:25 — Audience Q&A * ​20:25–21:30 — Networking ​**The event will be held in English.**

Learn how seller finance and notes can create cash flow and new deal opportunities with 40-year investor Eddie Speed **FREE TICKET** 🎟️ https://www.eventbrite.com/e/how-to-structure-real-estate-deals-using-seller-finance-and-notes-tickets-1984826171509?aff=cicmeetupapp Most real estate investors only know one way to make money: Buy the property. Fix the property. Rent it or sell it. But there’s another side of real estate that can create cash flow, flexibility, and opportunity without only focusing on owning more property. At this month’s Columbus Investors Club, Tiffany and Josh High are sitting down with Eddie Speed - a real estate veteran with 40 years of experience who has closed more than 50,000 note deals. He has spent decades helping investors understand how to structure deals through seller finance and notes, and how to think more like the bank instead of just the buyer. This will be a practical conversation around a part of real estate most people have heard about, but very few truly understand. If you’ve ever wanted to know how to create more opportunities in deals, generate cash flow in a different way, or understand how seller finance actually works in the real world, this is a night you want to be in the room for. You’ll walk away thinking about deals differently, seeing new possibilities, and understanding how creative structuring can open doors that traditional investing alone can’t. **What You’ll Learn** * How seller finance works in real estate deals * How notes fit into real estate and create opportunity * How to structure deals more creatively * How investors generate cash flow by focusing on the payment * How to think like the bank instead of only focusing on owning the property * How this strategy can create flexibility in today’s market **Open Q&A - Ask Eddie Anything About** * Seller finance and how to use it in real deals * How notes work in a practical, beginner-friendly way * Creating cash flow without only relying on rentals * Structuring deals that others might miss * How experienced investors think differently about financing * Common mistakes investors make when they only focus on the property **Why You Should Be in the Room** Because the investors who win in the long run know how to do more than just buy houses. They know how to structure.They know how to create terms.They know how to see opportunities other people miss. This is the kind of conversation that can expand the way you think about real estate entirely.

Join us as we get together to get together to help those in need at this CMG Gives Back event! We have a great little community of Movie Group friends so rather than see a movie this time, we’ll help “create a better world” by helping serve those in need. Here are complete details and our plan for this event: FAITH MISSION – GRANT KITCHEN: The Faith Mission kitchen and dining room serves residents 3 meals a day, every day of the year. For this event, our group will help prepare food, serve meals, assist residents in the dining room, wash dishes, and clean surfaces. PLAN: We will be preparing / serving / cleaning for BRUNCH from 10:30am to 12:30pm and have space for a total of 7 volunteers. Please arrive at 10:20am and wear closed-toe shoes and long pants. LOCATION: Faith Mission – Grant Kitchen is located at 245 N. Grant Ave. Enter the kitchen at Dock 1 (in the back of the building), indicated in the attached map. On-site parking in the adjacent lot and street parking is available in the surrounding area. Below are some links / attachments with additional info/details: IMPORTANT REMINDER: Our group will be providing all of the volunteers on this day so a firm RSVP count is essential. Please only sign up if you are certain you’ll be able to attend. If something unavoidable comes up, please try to update your RSVP no later than one week prior to the event. With few exceptions, no shows or cancelations within 1 week of the event will not be eligible for future CMG Gives Back events. I appreciate your understanding as we try to ensure the agencies have the volunteers needed to provide the essential services they provide to the vulnerable population they serve. Our Partner Agency for this event is Lutheran Social Services! A huge THANK YOU to all of YOU for volunteering at this (and any of our previous) CMG Gives Back events! Should be a good/fun/meaningful time together, Dan
