**State of Innovation with LEGOÂŽ SERIOUS PLAYÂŽ**
**đ Unlock Business Agility with LEGOÂŽ SERIOUS PLAYÂŽ đ**
Are you ready to transform your approach to problem-solving and innovation? **Join us for State of Innovation,** an immersive event designed to equip you with the mindset and tools necessary to thrive in todayâs complex business environment.
**About the Event**
**Business Agility** is more than just a buzzword; itâs a mindset focused on achieving end results through collaborative efforts. Itâs about how every team member contributes to creating solutions that everyone feels ownership of and are aimed at the goals we set out to achieve.
**Why is this important?** In a world marked by complexity, the ability of leaders to make informed decisions based on context is crucial. Instead of rigidly following best practices, leaders should embrace experimentation, learn from failures, and allow new practices to emerge organically.
**Business agility fosters:**
â **Innovation and Creativity:** Unlock the full potential of your team by encouraging creative solutions and empathetic collaboration.
â **Trust and Commitment:** Build solutions that everyone believes in and is committed to because they played a part in their creation.
â **Speed and Effectiveness:** Achieve swift
implementation and impactful results through continuous improvement and alignment among team members.
While traditional methods often rely on tools like post-its, we take it a step further. Using the **LEGOÂŽ SERIOUS PLAYÂŽ** methodology,
developed by Robert Rasmussen and Per Kristiansen, we address major challenges in a unique and engaging way. This method helps teams create real-time strategies by building 3D models with LEGOÂŽ bricks, serving as metaphors for ideas, concepts, and realities.
**Why Attend?**
â **Interactive Learning:** Engage in hands-on activities that foster deeper understanding and innovative thinking.
â **Expert Facilitation:** Learn from Andrea Romoli, a seasoned facilitator in Design Sprint, **LEGOÂŽ** **SERIOUS PLAYÂŽ**, and Design Thinking processes.
â **Real-Time Strategy Building**: Experience a proven method for enhancing team collaboration and decision-making.
â **Creative Confidence:** Develop the skills to visualize and articulate your ideas, making invisible thoughts visible and tangible.

## What weâre about
Buongiorno a tutti. Sono proprietario di un bar e dispongo di un tavolo da biliardo semi-professionale. Sto creando un gruppo WhatsApp di giocatori amatoriali di biliardo americano pool/carambola, per la maggior parte debuttanti. Cerco persone disposte a unirsi al gruppo per giocare e divertirsi nel tempo libero, il pomeriggio oppure la sera in ogni giorno. Per stimolare l'impegno di ogni giocatore, abbiamo pattuito che il vincitore di ogni "mini-torneo" organizzato nei vari giorni giochi gratis e non paghi la tariffa di tempo per il periodo di gioco (un'ora di gioco costa 10âŹ, ma viene di volta in volta frazionata in base al periodo di gioco effettivo). Il locale si trova in zona nord di Milano, stazione Greco-Pirelli, universitĂ Bicocca. Chiunque dovesse essere davvero interessato a partecipare e unirsi al mio gruppo, non esiti a contattarmi. Cerco persone serie e disposte solamente a divertirsi, senza puntare mazzette grazie mille.
Antonio

Road to HACK: Fine-Tune Your Own AI Model | Hands-On Workshop
Large language models are impressive out of the box â but they hallucinate, they're generic, and they need the cloud.
What if you could take a small open-source model and turn it into a domain expert that runs on your own hardware?
That's exactly what we're doing in this hands-on workshop.
**[Luca Massaron](https://www.linkedin.com/in/lmassaron/)** â data scientist, bestselling AI author, 3x Kaggle Grandmaster, and Google Developer Expert â will walk you through a complete fine-tuning pipeline from scratch: evaluate a base model, generate synthetic training data, fine-tune with QLoRA, and measure the improvement. All on consumer-grade hardware.
By the end of the session, you'll have a repeatable playbook for making small models punch way above their weight in any domain you care about.
**What you'll work through:**
Baseline evaluation of a pre-trained model â Synthetic dataset generation from real sources â Supervised fine-tuning with QLoRA (parameter-efficient, memory-friendly) â Post-training evaluation to measure the knowledge gain â **Bonus:** fine-tuning for classification tasks (sentiment analysis)
**What to bring:**
**Your laptop**. The workshop runs on Google Colab (free T4 GPU tier), so no fancy hardware required â just a browser and a Google account. If you have a machine with an NVIDIA GPU (16GB+ VRAM) or an Apple Silicon Mac (16GB+ unified memory), you can run everything locally too.
**This event is part of Road to HACK â the official warm-up series for [GDG AI HACK 2026](https://gdgaihack.com/).**
On May 8â10, 160 selected participants will compete in a 24-hour AI hackathon in Milan, with tracks spanning on-device AI, vision AI, and EdTech.
Fine-tuning is one of the most directly applicable skills you can bring to the hack.
Applications for GDG AI HACK 2026 are open **until April 17 â** [gdgaihack.com](https://gdgaihack.com/)
Coding with AI: the last 3 months - Matteo Vaccari
Per il mese di Marzo accogliamo nuovamente un ospite speciale, a un anno esatto dall'ultimo intervento fatto per noi. Esponente di spicco del movimento Agile ed XP in italia, membro storico del gruppo di *eXtreme Programming Milano* : **Matteo Vaccari**.
Portandoci *"Coding with AI: the last 3 month"* ci racconta le novitĂ che ha esplorato e sperimentato negli ultimi mesi sul coding con l'AI.
\- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \-
**Abstract**
La programmazione assistita dall'IA si sta evolvendo rapidamente. Negli ultimi mesi sono emerse due tendenze: lo spec-driven development, ovvero la stesura di piani dettagliati prima della implementazione, e l'harness engineering, ovvero l'utilizzo di test, linter e controlli automatizzati per mantenere l'IA sulla strada giusta. Parlerò di questi trend e della nostra esperienza recente applicandoli a una codebase reale dove vogliamo (a) non scrivere mai codice a mano e (b) ottenere codice di alta qualitĂ
**Bio**
Extreme programmer, Thoughtworker, trainer, coach and software developer. Deeply interested in what makes teams and companies successful beyond expectations! Any opinion expressed are my own.
\- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \-

From Web Forms to Web Components - Burton Smith
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you.
The building address is 4450 Bridge Park
The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400
**Abstract**
Web Forms gave .NET developers a powerful abstraction for building reusable UI controls long before design systems were a thing. Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively.
This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. Weâll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from serverâdriven controls, and why theyâre becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether youâre maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, youâll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standardsâbased way.

Long Form Night - Columbus Comedy Improv Meetup at Gresso's!
Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you knew Del Close on a personal level, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup** for some fun and games! Tonight's a special one; this is "Long form" night!
Most nights here at Improv Meetup, we play "short form" games, where the host has established rules that the players must adhere to. These scenes frequently do not tell a connected story and are focused on following those rules; games such as "Alphabet Game" where every next sentence needs to start with the next letter of the alphabet, or "Interrogation" where it's a guessing game.
Tonight is focused on "long form", where we will see groups of people come up and do a sort of improvised play. There may be rules to the structure itself to adhere to, or it may be more free form, but doing this allows players to establish a shared world, and to establish characters and callbacks. While your average game may last 2-3 minutes, a long form set will last much longer, and have 4+ people involved. This may be a more complicated night, but we will make sure you feel supported to try this out.
Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and free!) weekly comedy event, brings the games (and occasionally different forms) for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Not only is it a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and make friendships that'll last a lifetime!
Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "Yes, And" that you'll have fun!
