Databricks User Group Belgium 12th Meetup (In-Person)
Databricks User Group Belgium 12th Meetup (In-Person)
Join us for the 12th edition of our meetup, filled with insightful sessions on Databricks, great company, and drinks & bites. As always, expect the same great format: a food & drinks reception, two sessions, and a laid-back closing drink. 📍 **Location:** Plainsight Office Kruisbaan 70 2800 Mechelen **🚅 How to get there?** The event venue is easy to reach by both car and public transport. If you’re coming by car, parking is available at the office, including EV charging stations. Traveling by public transport? Take the train to Mechelen station, then continue with a 10-minute bus ride to the office. 🕡 **Schedule:** * **6:00 pm:** **Welcome with food & drinks** Doors open, grab a drink and a bite as we get started! * **7:00 pm - 7:40 pm:** **From data to demand: Developing your own forecasting models & Custom AI Agents with Databricks** Turning client data into reliable demand forecasts is one thing, operationalizing it safely at scale is the real challenge. This meetup talk shows how we use Databricks as the backbone for demand forecasting, from data preparation to production-grade delivery. MLFlow sits at the core: tracking experiments, comparing runs, and registering the best model for controlled promotion and rollout. We’ll demonstrate how the model is embedded in Databricks data pipelines so forecasts are produced automatically and consistently for downstream use. Forecasts naturally trigger follow-up questions, so we’ll also introduce our own secure agent that answers client questions grounded in their own data. You’ll see how agent-level security and access controls keep every response scoped, compliant, and auditable, without slowing teams down. *By [Bram Verbeke](https://www.linkedin.com/in/bram-verbeke/), Analytics Consultant @ Plainsight* * **7:50 pm - 8:30 pm: Engineering the Future: Next-Generation Pipelines with Databricks Lakeflow** Databricks Lakeflow is a powerful set of tools for running data engineering workflows on Databricks. It allows data practitioners to build end-to-end, production-ready data pipelines. Yet, having the right tools is only half the job; knowing how to use them effectively is just as important. During this session, we’ll dive into the most important components of the Lakeflow toolkit: Lakeflow Connect for seamless data ingestion, Lakeflow Declarative Pipelines for building robust batch and streaming pipelines, and Lakeflow Jobs for headache-free workload automation. Attendees will gain practical insights into building production-ready data pipelines. Focusing on proven data engineering best practices, we’ll also look ahead to the future of Databricks Lakeflow and how it can help democratize data across teams *By [Oleksandra Bovkun](https://www.linkedin.com/in/oleksandra-bovkun/), Sr. Developer Advocate @ Databricks* * **8:30 pm - 10:30 pm:** **Networking & Drinks** End the night with casual drinks and great conversations! 🚀 **Be part of our 12th meetup - RSVP now and join the community!** 🔊 *If you want to speak at an upcoming meetup, don't hesitate to submit your session [here](https://sessionize.com/databricks-meetup-belgium421/)!*

Story Night: Stories of love, heartbreak and everything in between
Story Night: Stories of love, heartbreak and everything in between
Story Night is back: local and international talents will share their stories of love and heartbreak for a special St. Valentine's night **Story Night Brussels: an evening of connection and community through personal stories** Looking for a different kind of St. Valentine's plan? Join us for the one and only Story Night of Storytelling Brussels! Storytelling Brussels aims to create a space where we pause, connect, and experience our shared humanity through the power of stories. A space where everyday experiences become well-crafted narratives with meaning and impact. All tellers will bring stories around the theme of love, in all its glorious complexity: happiness and heartbreak, laugh and pain, eternal and ephimeral, modern and evergreen. Stories that will make you laugh, cry, reflect, feel. Come with an open mind and leave with a full heart. **Event Details:** * Each storyteller has prepared a short story. Most of them will be personal and real, a few might be folktales or traditional. * **Venue**: The Bridge Theatre Studio * **Doors open 19:30.** **Show starts at 20:00** (sharp!). More than just a show, we want to create a community around storytelling, so **we encourage you to come early**, socialize, and maybe meet new people! * Attention! This time we will be collecting **donations upon check-in at the door.** We recommend a donation of **10€/person**, but if you're on short of cash at the moment just drop us a message on advance or simply tell us at the door and you can choose a price that works for you. All the earnings will go to compensate the performers (some of whom will be traveling long distances for this event) and organise more of these in the future. Please bring some cash. * All stories will be told in **English** * We kindly ask you to be present and listen actively to the stories. But don't fear, we will also have time to have fun and chat in between, and breaks to enjoy **the bar!** **Reservations**: it helps us a lot if you [RSVP through here](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/stories-of-love-heartbreak-and-everything-in-between-tickets-1980634417861?aff=oddtdtcreator). Space is limited, so secure your spot by booking today! If in the end you cannot make it, please cancel your reservation so someone else might take your spot. Please note that if you haven’t arrived by the time the show starts, your spot might be given to someone else. **What is storytelling?** Sharing stories in front of an audience may well be the oldest form of art. This ancient oral tradition is experiencing a modern revival through organizations like The Moth in New York, the Mezrab in Amsterdam, or The Bear in Berlin. Now, it is Brussels’ turn! Though deeply connected to many other disciplines, storytelling is an artform on its own. It might make you laugh, but it's not stand-up comedy. It might make you think, but it's not a TED talk. It make help you heal, but it's not therapy. Ultimately, it's about connecting with each other, sharing and celebrating life. **Want to tell a story?** We believe everyone has a story to tell, and we welcome everyone who wants to dare! Previous performance experience is a plus, but **not necessarily required.** We simply ask you to fill up the form below and commit to respect the format (you will have priority if you have come to our shows before). Depending on the volume of applications we will contact you only when we find a spot for you, thank you for your understanding! https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdEI9BtS4uNOWhBtvV2nEtbjy8Y6POs2PWPbYvFX5cTGy7n8A/viewform?usp=dialog **Want to be updated about our events?** If you don't want to miss our next shows and keep up to date with our activities, **find us** **on Instagram @storytellingbrussels** Tired of social media?

February’s Speculative Fiction - Someone You Can Build A Nest In by John Wiswell
February’s Speculative Fiction - Someone You Can Build A Nest In by John Wiswell
Please join us as we discuss **SOMEONE YOU CAN BUILD A NEST IN**, by John Wiswell. This queer romance novel won the Nebula and Locus Awards and was a Hugo nominee, and is a relatively short read, at about 363 pages. Please keep your RSVP updated and accurate! Space is limited for this event. We are intentionally holding some RSVP slots for new members specifically, so if you’re new and the event is full, please get on the waitlist ASAP! You may bring your own food/drinks (no alcohol, please) or you may pick something up in Mosaic or at the farmers market before the meetup. We do ask that you pack your trash out with you. * **[KINDLE](https://a.co/d/52iAE17)** * **[PAPERBACK](https://a.co/d/hYo70W5)** * **[AUDIBLE](https://www.audible.com/pd/Someone-You-Can-Build-a-Nest-In-Audiobook/B0CX7C9FQM)** **BOOK DESCRIPTION:** ***Shesheshen has made a mistake fatal to all monsters: she's fallen in love.*** Shesheshen is a shapeshifter, who happily resides as an amorphous lump at the bottom of a ruined manor. When her rest is interrupted by impolite monster hunters, she constructs a body from the remains of past meals: a metal chain for a backbone, borrowed bones for limbs, and a bear trap as an extra mouth. Badly hurt by the hunters, Shesheshen’s nursed back to health by Homily, a warm-hearted human. Homily is kind and would make a great co-parent: an ideal place to lay Shesheshen’s eggs so their young can devour Homily from the inside out. But as they grow close, Shesheshen realizes that eating her girlfriend isn’t an option. Just as Shesheshen’s about to confess her identity, Homily reveals something else: she’s hunting a shapeshifting monster that supposedly cursed her family. Has Shesheshen seen it anywhere? Shesheshen didn’t curse anyone, so now she has to figure out why Homily’s twisted family thinks she did. As Shesheshen’s hunt for the monster becomes increasingly deadly, the bigger challenge remains: learning how to build a life with, rather than in, the woman she loves. *\*Since missing one of these meetups is taking a spot away from someone else who wants to go, we'll need to have a stricter attendance policy than normal. For book discussions, 3 no-shows in a rolling 3-month period will prohibit you from attending any other book discussion for 2 months after your last no-show. In order to avoid a no-show, please update your RSVP no later than 10pm two nights before a discussion. Thanks for your understanding and cooperation! If you need to drop off because of Covid symptoms or exposure or a positive test or any other illness, there will be no penalty to no-showing or dropping late.*

Can't wait to see you! :)
