AI bootcamp (Berlin) - Accelerate AI with Google Cloud
**Important:** Register on the [event website](https://www.aicamp.ai/event/eventdetails/W2026021300)[ ](https://www.aicamp.ai/event/eventdetails/W2025103101)is required for admission.(RSVP is turned off on meetup)
**Description:**
Join Google Cloud Labs for an immersive, hands on workshop learning how to build and scale production-grade AI agents with Cloud Run and GPU support.
This is a hands-on program designed to take your AI applications from prototype to full-scale production. In the world of AI development, a great idea is just the beginning. The real challenge lies in transforming that initial spark into a secure, scalable, and robust application that can handle real-world demands.
Get ready to get your hands dirty! This is an interactive session, not a lecture. Through a series of live labs, you'll tackle real-world challenges, from securing your services to deploying advanced AI agents. You will leave with practical skills and the confidence to take your own AI projects to the next level.
**What You Will Learn:**
* **Deploy Secure, Production-Ready Services:** Master the essentials of securing your applications on Cloud Run. You will build and deploy a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server and learn to implement authentication to ensure that only authorized clients and agents can interact with your service.
* **Build Intelligent Agents:** Dive into the Agent Development Kit (ADK) to construct an intelligent agent capable of understanding a goal and using tools to achieve it. You'll connect your agent to the secure MCP server you built, giving it the power to perform real-world tasks.
* **Containerize and Deploy:** Take your working agent and prepare it for a consistent, portable deployment. This is a crucial step for managing applications in a serverless environment.
* **Harness the Power of GPUs on Cloud Run**: Deploy your containerized agent to a Cloud Run instance and attach a GPU to accelerate your models. You will gain hands-on experience managing production configurations and testing a live, GPU-accelerated application.
**Agenda**
* 9:00AM - 9:30AM: Check-in, Networking, Coffee, and Breakfast
* 9:30AM - 10:00AM: Keynote: From AI Prototype to a Multi-Component Production App
* 10:00AM - 10:20AM: Tech Talk 1: The New Agentic Workflow: Empowering AI with Tools via MCP
* 10:20AM - 11:20AM: Lab 1: Deploy a Secure MCP Server on Cloud Run
* 11:20AM - 12:30PM: Lab 2: Use an MCP Server on Cloud Run with an ADK Agent
* 12:30PM - 1:30PM: Lunch Break
* 1:30PM - 2:10PM: Tech talk 2: From Agent to Application: Production Patterns for Scalable AI
* 2:10PM - 3:20PM: Lab 3: Deploying a Production-Grade Agent to Cloud Run with GPU
* 3:20PM - 3:30PM: Closing remarks & the path forward
* 3:30PM - 4:30PM: Q&A, Networking, and Happy Hour
Radical Empathy – Queer Storytelling for Connection
**Radical Empathy – Queer Storytelling for Connection**
host by **Neo Seefried**
guest: **Sarj Lynch**
event for **LGBTQIA+**
**[Free event with registration](https://wearevillage.org/en/shop/radical-empathy/w07-2026)**
Conflict is everywhere: in our inner lives, relationships, workplaces, communities. Instead of seeing it as rupture or failure, Radical Empathy explores how exchange can transform conflict into queer creativity, resilience, and solidarity.
This intimate closed group of 25–30 queer participants will explore how storytelling can hold, transform, and reimagine conflict – personal and collective. We will create a space where queer voices meet – not to erase differences, but to live them and to seek new forms of connection.
**Calling in Care When Harm Happens**
In this session, we’ll explore some of the ways that our bodies react in moments of rupture, as well as strategies for how we can activate our values to guide our responses when the going gets tough . We’ll learn a simple care protocol that can be applied when painful moments arise in our relationships — whether we are the one experiencing harm, perpetuating it, or witnessing it (or, as so often happens, some combination of the three).
**Guest facilitator for this session is Sarj Lynch**, facilitator, community care organizer and co-initiator of aequa. **Sarj Lynch** (they) is a very curious facilitator and community care organizer based in Berlin. They are co-initiator of aequa (2017), aequa Workshops Collective (2020), and Berlin Collective Action e.V. (2020). Together with Bryony Beynon, they run Big Beef and Beyond — an ongoing series of trainings on transformative approaches to tending to harm in our communities, which focuses especially on conflict, harm and abuse in collective, cultural and social movement and organizing work.
**General information**
**Participant**: this workshop series is open to LGBTQIA+ people, with particular encouragement for those holding multiple marginalizations.
**Language**: Depending on the group’s needs, sessions will be held in German and/or English.
**Cost**: Free of charge, registration required.
🔵
Konflikte sind allgegenwärtig: in unserem Inneren, in Beziehungen, in der Arbeit, in Communities. Anstatt sie als Bruch oder Scheitern zu sehen, erforscht Radical Empathy, wie Austausch Konflikte in queere Kreativität, Resilienz und Solidarität verwandeln kann.
Diese intime, geschlossene Gruppe von queeren Teilnehmenden wird untersuchen, wie Storytelling persönliche und kollektive Konflikte halten, verwandeln und neu imaginieren kann. Wir schaffen einen Raum, in dem queere Stimmen einander begegnen – nicht, um Unterschiede aufzulösen, sondern um sie zu leben und neue Formen der Verbindung zu suchen.
In dieser Session werden wir einige der Weisen erkunden, wie unsere Körper in Momenten des Bruchs reagieren, sowie Strategien dafür, wie wir unsere Werte aktivieren können, um unser Handeln zu leiten, wenn es schwierig wird. Wir werden ein einfaches Fürsorge-Protokoll kennenlernen, das angewendet werden kann, wenn schmerzhafte Momente in unseren Beziehungen auftauchen — ganz gleich, ob wir diejenigen sind, die Verletzung erfahren, sie verursachen oder sie bezeugen (oder, wie so oft, eine Kombination aus allem).
**Gast-Moderator\*in bei dieser Session ist Sarj Lynch**, Facilitator und Community-Care-Organisator\*in, Gründer\*in von aequa.
**Sarj Lynch** (they) ist ein\*e sehr neugierige\*r Vermittler\*in und Organisator\*in für Community Care mit Sitz in Berlin. Sarj ist Mitinitiator\*in von aequa (2017), aequa Workshops Collective (2020) und Berlin Collective Action e.V. (2020). Zusammen mit Bryony Beynon leitet they Big Beef and Beyond – eine fortlaufende Reihe von Schulungen zu transformativen Ansätzen für den Umgang mit Verletzungen in unseren Communities, die sich insbesondere auf Konflikte, Gewalt und Missbrauch in kollektiven, kulturellen und sozialen Bewegungen und Organisationsarbeit konzentriert.
**Hinweise**
**Teilnehmende:** Die Reihe richtet sich an queere Menschen (LGBTQIA+). Wir empfehlen insbesondere die Teilnahme von Menschen mit mehrfachen Marginalisierungen.
**Sprache:** Je nach Bedürfnissen der Gruppe auf Deutsch und/oder Englisch\*\*.\*\*
**Kosten:** kostenlos mit Anmeldung.
**Mit Unterstützung der Senatsverwaltung für Inneres und Sport – Landeskommission Berlin gegen Gewalt**

Sunday Tech Coffee Meetup
Welcome to Sunday Tech Coffee. This is a **networking** event for those in the tech industry in Berlin.
We are usually inside and to the right. Ask the barista/bartender if you can't find us.
Soundground: free improvised music workshop
**A place to meet sound, without maps**
Facilitated by **Vesti Gium (they/them)**
Everyone enters as they are.
No score. No threshold of skill.
We follow the room, moment by moment—
listening, nudging, letting the music find itself.
A breath, a shoelace, a laugh, a footstep—
each carries weight.
Silence is welcomed; noise is celebrated.
There are no wrong directions here.
We practise a listening that reaches outward and inward:
to ourselves, to one another, to the space we shape together.
That is where the music begins.
* 🌀 Bring a voice, an object, an instrument, a movement—or nothing at all.
* ✨ **Priority given to FLINTA folks and people with migration background.**
* 🎧 No experience needed. Curiosity is enough.
* 📍 Berlin – \[theodorstraße 5,12099]
* 🗓 Every Saturday 12:00
* 📬 DM or email **[vestigium.impro@gmail.com](mailto:vestigium.impro@gmail.com)** to join
Come make sound—come be heard.
Build & Learn: Data Science with Coffee [Cohort 6 Image Processing]
📅 **Week 4 Focus: Calling LLM via API**
Each 7-week cycle focuses on a small, well-defined part of a larger system—and over time, these cycles build toward a complete, real-world project
Feel free to join at any week and we will catch you up. There is no need to be at the beginning of the cohort to build. Complete beginners welcomed!
📌 By the End of a Full Cycle, You should Have
🎯 A working project in your own GitHub repo
🎯 A small but real portfolio piece you can demo or write about
🧠 **Current Project**
This cycle’s shared project is an **image-based knowledge extraction system**.
In Week 3, we trained a deep learning object detection model (YOLO) and learned how modern computer vision models are built.
**In Week 4** we will try **LLM-based image understanding via APIs** to extract structured information from images and comparing this approach with traditional computer vision and building your own deep learning methods.

Agentic AI Engineering Lab (Sprint #1) - Build a Production-Ready MCP Server
**Agentic AI Engineering Lab (Tech Event, Sprint #1)**
**\- Build a Production\-Ready MCP Server**
**Move from prompting to architecting**
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an emerging open standard for connecting AI apps/agents to real tools and data sources. This session is not a talk — it’s a hands-on lab where we build MCP servers that can be tested immediately with an MCP-capable client (e.g., Claude Desktop / your preferred agent setup).
**The Format**
We are planning a series of agentic ai tech meetings for deep building. This event may be attended alone or be seen as part / sprint of the event series with upcoming events building on top of what we build here.
This is a high-density micro-meetup limited to 6 seats. We prioritize builders: bring your laptop, ship code, and be ready to 'build and break' alongside other devs and engineers.
**Future Sessions building on top may focus on ...**
RAG systems, advanced MCP features, A2A, multi-agent workflows, production deployment Patterns or whatever we feel nice to build next.
(We run our sessions like an anthology series: **Every meetup is a standalone sprint.** While we often build on previous results, each session provides a complete experience and remains fully accessible to first-time attendees.)
**What you'll build**
After a quick alignment on the technical scope, the floor is yours: build your solution using the stack and tools that fit your workflow. We provide the framework; you provide the execution.
By the end, you’ll have a working MCP server (Python or TypeScript) with at least one real tool/resource, tested end-to-end.
**Ideas: Choose one track (or bring own idea if it fits the scope)**
**For Beginners (Foundational)**
* Personal knowledge server (local files/notes)
* Weather / external API integration
* GitHub issues helper
**Intermediate**
* SQLite query interface
* Slack/Discord notification tool
* CSV/Excel analyzer
**Advanced**
* Multi-API aggregator (e.g., calendar + weather + tasks)
* Document processor (PDF/DOCX parsing)
* Lightweight system monitoring/control
**Schedule (Saturaday, 10:00 - 15:00 CET)**
* **10:00–10:30 — Foundations + Live Demo**
Quick run through general MCP architecture (hosts/clients/servers), core primitives (tools/resources/prompts), basic patterns in order to get everybody on the same page.
* **10:30–11:00 — Environment Sync**
We wanna make sure everyone can run a “Hello World” MCP server (Python or TypeScript).
* **11:00–12:45 — Build Sprint (Lab Time)**
Implement your server + first tool/resource. Pair-debugging encouraged.
* **12:45–13:00 — Break (Pizza/Snacks)**
* **13:00–13:30 — Test & Iterate**
Use MCP Inspector / your client to test, fix edge cases, tighten tool contracts.
* **13:30–15:00 — Demos + Technical Teardown**
Quick demos, what broke, what worked, and what we’ll harden in the next sprint.
**Prerequisites (Please Read)**
* You’re comfortable shipping small things in your preferred dev language and tools (e.g. Python, TypeScript/Node.js).
* **Bring your laptop** + basic dev setup (Git, package manager).
* Have access to an LLM client / API (Claude/OpenAI/etc.).
* This is a lab for engineers, not a tutorial. We solve architectural problems together, but you are the master of your own dev environment.
* **Mindset:** Build, Break & Iterate — broken code is welcome, passivity isn’t.
**Logistics**
* **Location:** Our private boardroom in the Grunewald area (near Martin-Luther Hospital). The exact address will be shared after RSVP.
* **Capacity:** 6 seats (first come, first served; deposit required)
**Commitment Deposit and No-Show / Late-Show**
This meetup is strictly non-profit. To respect everyone’s time and ensure all 6 seats are utilized by committed builders, a €15 deposit is required.
* **The Deal:** The deposit covers high-quality pizza, snacks, and drinks. Any surplus will be refunded to you via your original payment method after the event.
* **Punctuality is Key:** We start at **10:00 sharp** with the technical foundations (door open from 09:45). To protect the group’s focus, late arrivals or no-shows will not be eligible for a refund. Their deposit will be fully contributed to the community's pizza & snack fund.
* **Cancellations:** No refunds for cancellations within 24 hours of the start time.
