🚀 Rebuild the Stack: Ways of Working in the AI Era
**What it takes to work as a Product Trio in an AI-first world?** Product Tank Barcelona is back — and this time we're bringing the full squad. This June, we're co-hosting ProductTank Barcelona at **G2's brand new Barcelona office** for a conversation that's long overdue: what does cross-functional collaboration actually look like when AI changes everything about how we build? **Three voices. One stage.** We'll hear from a PM, an Engineer, and a Designer — each sharing their perspective on what it takes to work as a product trio in an AI-first world. No silos. No hand-offs. Just honest lessons from teams doing it in practice. Together, they'll explore: * What the "Single Stack Builder" model means in practice * Why shipping a feature is no longer the goal — driving outcomes is the only measure of success * How PMs, designers, and engineers prototype together, teach each other, and actually move the needle on OKRs 🎤 **Meet the Speakers** **Karine K.

Cloud Native Barcelona OpenTelemetry #3
Cloud Native Barcelona OpenTelemetry #3
This is the third in a series of meetups exploring the exciting world of **[OpenTelemetry](https://opentelemetry.io/)** within the cloud-native ecosystem. And this time, we are partnering with our good friends at [Write the Docs Barcelona](https://www.meetup.com/write-the-docs-barcelona/). Whether you're just curious about observability or already a seasoned OpenTelemetry user, this series will offer valuable insights, practical knowledge, and opportunities to connect with fellow enthusiasts in the Barcelona cloud-native community. **📍 Location:** **[Factorial](https://factorial.es)** \- Carrer de Llacuna 56\, building C\, Barcelona \| [https://maps.app.goo.gl/baTqk9H8m3ACK4jD7](https://maps.app.goo.gl/baTqk9H8m3ACK4jD7) **👉 Here's a sneak peek of the agenda:** **18:30:** Check-in and welcome 👋 **18:45:** 🎙️ **"Collaborating in OSS projects: The OpenTelemetry Docs case study"** by **[Anna Urbiztondo](https://www.linkedin.com/in/annaurbiztondo/)** - *Senior Technical Writer at [Grafana Labs](https://grafana.com)*, **[Fabrizio Ferri-Benedetti](https://www.linkedin.com/in/fabrizioferri/)**[ ](https://www.linkedin.com/in/fabrizioferri/)- *Principal Technical Writer* *at [Elastic](https://elastic.co)***.** This Write the Docs meets Cloud Native talk covers what makes open-source projects succeed in practice — clear focus, community ownership, organization, goodwill, and excellent communication in a fast-moving codebase. OpenTelemetry Documentation is a perfect example because it encompasses new, state-of-the-art concepts and spans across multiple languages and vendors. Therefore, its docs must explain workflows, implementation scenarios, deployment tools, and APIs to both newcomers and seasoned users to guarantee adoption and success. **19:45 - 20:30:** Networking, Snacks, and Drinks 🍻🍕 We appreciate **[Factorial](https://factorial.es)**'s generosity in hosting us at their Barcelona office and to **[Grafana Labs](https://grafana.com)** for providing snacks & refreshments.

Stop Guessing: A Product Person's Guide to AI Adoption
Stop Guessing: A Product Person's Guide to AI Adoption
## 🤝 Host Information A co-hosted event by ProductTank Columbus & Women in Product Columbus 💡 About the Workshop AI adoption is stalling across organizations — not because of a lack of motivation or tools, but because it's fundamentally a behavior design challenge. This hands-on workshop applies proven Behavior Design models and methods to help you move from a vague organizational wish to boost AI adoption to 3-5 concrete, testable interventions you can act on starting tomorrow. Whether you're a product manager, on a product team, or just someone trying to get AI to actually stick at work, you'll leave with a clear picture of what's worth focusing on, what to ignore, and how to drive real, sustained adoption — no guesswork required. 🛠️ What to Bring Laptop: Fully charged and ready to go. AI Assistant: Have your favorite AI assistant pulled up. (Dom will be using Claude, but feel free to use whichever assistant you prefer!) 🍕 Logistics & Perks Food & Drink: Pizza and drinks provided! Parking: Plenty of free spaces available on-site. ###

Battle of the personal agents
Battle of the personal agents
Join the Columbus AI community for a special event. **Battle of the Personal Agents** is your chance to see what people are actually building with AI agents and personal automation systems. Whether you’re running OpenClaw, Hermes, or a completely custom solution, bring your agent and show the community how it works. We’re interested in real-world implementations: the problems your agent solves, how you use it day-to-day, how it’s hosted and managed, how you built it, and why you’ve chosen to keep using it. Live demonstrations are encouraged, so be prepared to show your code, architecture, workflows, and your agent performing real tasks. This is less about polished presentations and more about sharing practical experience, comparing approaches, and learning from one another. If you’d like to present, please contact Chris Slee (via meetup) before the event so we can allocate enough time for everyone’s demonstrations. Come ready to show what you’ve built, discover what others are doing, and maybe find a few ideas worth taking home. Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.
