Interior Design

This is a follow-on workshop to the Studio Introduction workshop. If you attend that workshop then you will be prioritised for this one. Have you ever wanted to dive into portrait photography but didn't know where to start? Or perhaps you know the basics but want to refine your lighting and directing skills? Join us for a relaxed and supportive workshop designed to help you get comfortable photographing people. Working with a professional model changes everything—it allows you to focus on your camera and creativity without the stress. **What we will explore together:** * **Foolproof Lighting:** Learn the classic lighting setups that guarantee flattering results every time. * **The Art of Direction:** Discover how to communicate with your subject to get natural, expressive poses. * **Portfolio Building:** Walk away with stunning images and the confidence to set up your own shoots. **Open to members and non-members.** Come for the photography, stay for the networking! All you need is a camera with a portrait lens and some enthusiasm. The event fee is CHF 100. Please understand that in case you cancel close to the event, we will ask you to pay anyway, as we have to pay for the model and the studio.

**Decoden Workshop - Decorate with Charms and Color**! In the Decoden Workshop, you’ll explore a playful and creative decorating technique that turns everyday objects into unique, colorful accessories. Decoden is a popular craft style that uses creamy decorative glue, bright colors, and cute charms to create fun, eye-catching designs. This workshop is perfect for anyone who loves creativity, decoration, and hands-on crafting. During the workshop, you can decorate a variety of items such as picture frames, table mirrors, hand mirror, pencil cases, jewelry box, or small accessories. You choose the object, the color of the decoden cream, and your favorite charms to match your personal style. Whether you prefer a cute, bold, or minimal look, every piece becomes a one-of-a-kind creation. The workshop is beginner-friendly and no prior experience is required. You will be guided step by step through the entire process, from applying the decoden cream to placing the charms securely. Tips and tricks will be shared to help you create a balanced and beautiful design. Individual support is available throughout the session, so you can work at your own pace. **You can come any time between 15:30 and 20:00 (please message me if you are coming after 15:30)**. Each item takes approximately **60 minutes** to complete (**15–30 minutes if you are fast)**, depending on the level of detail. The **price starts at 26 CHF per item**, which includes **1 color of decoden cream** and **20 charms**. All materials are provided, so you can simply show up and start creating. If you want to decorate a specific item, you can also bring it with you. Please note that the decoden glue needs time to dry. It fully cures overnight. You may leave your finished piece at the studio for safe drying and collect it later, or carefully take it home with you. The Decoden Workshop is suitable for **children and adults**, making it a fun activity to enjoy solo, with friends, or as a creative break. If you love crafting cute, personalized accessories, this workshop is the perfect place to start.

Let's meet at the CNC meetup on Tuesday, March 10th, 2026, at 15:00 CET. **Location:** VSHN Tower, 8th floor, Neugasse 6, 8005 Zürich **Agenda:** Would you like to speak at this event? Contact us at [https://cnc-meetup.ch](https://cnc-meetup.ch)! Guidelines: * All sessions are held in English. * No product or sales pitches are allowed. * All projects showcased should be open source. * We cannot cover travel costs, but we welcome speakers from other regions. * We're seeking more diversity among our speakers: underrepresented groups are welcome! 14:30 – Door Opening 15:00 – Welcome, Intro, & Announcements 15:05 – TLS Hot Reload, Janne Kataja (SIX) 15:30 – 5 minutes pause 15:35 – Cloud-Native Application Definition and Delivery with OAM and KubeVela, Raffael Klingler (AXA) 16:00 – 5 minutes pause 16:05 – From Problem to Production: DevOps for AI with Kubeflow, Fabrizio Lazzaretti (Wavestone) and Marco Crisafulli (enki) 16:30 – 5 minutes pause 16:35 – Bye-bye Ingress-NGINX, hello Gateway API, Urs Zurbuchen (Airlock) 17:00 – Final words, networking & apéro TLS Hot Reload, Janne Kataja (SIX) Learn how to minimize disruptions caused by TLS certificate rotations by enabling hot reloading in your application. In Kubernetes, TLS certificates are typically stored in Secrets and mounted into pods. When a Secret is updated, for example, due to certificate rotation by cert-manager, Kubernetes updates the projected secret volume. Hot reload mechanisms detect these file changes and reload TLS certificates without restarting the pod. This enables live certificate rotation, maximizes availability, and reduces operational risk associated with restarts. The approach makes shorter-lived TLS certificates operationally viable. Janne is a Cloud Platform Engineer at the SIX Group, where he builds cloud platforms and services for the financial community. Originally from Finland, he now lives in Baar, Zug. Opinions are his own. Cloud-Native Application Definition and Delivery with OAM and KubeVela, Raffael Klingler (AXA) What if developers could focus on their applications instead of the platform beneath them? The Open Application Model (OAM) makes this possible by shifting the focus from containers and orchestrators to applications themselves. Instead of wrangling low-level Kubernetes manifests, developers define applications using modular, reusable building blocks. KubeVela brings this model to life, rendering abstract definitions into deployable resources. In this session, we'll explore how OAM enables application-centric definitions and see KubeVela in action. You'll see an application evolve from a simple definition to a sophisticated setup with cloud-managed services and GitOps integration. Raffael Klingler is a Platform Engineer at AXA Switzerland, where he helps development teams ship software faster and more reliably. He recently completed his Master's thesis on Internal Developer Platforms, diving deep into OAM, KubeVela, and the challenge of making application delivery less painful. When not wrangling Kubernetes manifests, he's probably thinking about how to make developers' lives easier. From Problem to Production: DevOps for AI with Kubeflow, Fabrizio Lazzaretti (Wavestone) and Marco Crisafulli (enki) Despite massive investments in AI, most enterprise AI initiatives fail to reach production — not because of model quality, but because of fragmentation among data science, platform engineering, and business teams. MLOps addresses this challenge by applying DevOps principles to machine learning, and Kubeflow has emerged as a de facto open platform for operationalizing these practices in cloud-native environments. In this talk, we explore how Kubeflow enables collaboration, automation, and repeatability across the entire ML lifecycle, from requirements gathering and experimentation to deployment and continuous improvement. Using a real end-to-end example, we’ll demonstrate how Kubeflow Pipelines, training workflows, and integration with the CNCF ecosystem help teams move beyond ad-hoc experimentation toward production-grade AI systems. Attendees will see how a vendor-neutral Kubeflow-based MLOps architecture supports multi-cloud deployments, enforces operational best practices, and creates continuous feedback loops between stakeholders. Whether you are introducing MLOps for the first time or refining an existing platform, this session provides practical insights into using Kubeflow to turn AI from a research activity into a sustainable business capability. Fabrizio Lazzaretti is a Managing Consultant at Wavestone and CNCF Ambassador who bridges cutting-edge cloud-native technologies with enterprise architecture. As maintainer of the CloudEvents Rust SDK and co-author of "Crafting Great APIs with Domain-Driven Design," he brings deep expertise in event-driven architecture and microservices to complex challenges. With over 10 years of experience in software architecture, development, and DevOps, he currently drives architectural transformation and AI initiatives across sectors, connecting business and IT through collaborative API design. Marco Crisafulli is the co-founder of enki, a Swiss machine learning company focused on training, consulting, and implementing practical ML use cases for Swiss enterprises. With a strong background in enterprise software and cloud-native infrastructure, he specializes in MLOps, Kubernetes, and production-grade ML platforms, and has deep hands-on experience with Kubeflow. He works closely with organizations to bridge the gap between experimentation and reliable ML systems in production, helping teams operationalize ML at scale. Bye-bye Ingress-NGINX, hello Gateway API The Kubernetes ecosystem is undergoing a major transformation as the legacy Ingress model, long dominated by the NGINX Ingress Controller, reaches its limits and faces discontinuation. This talk explores why the Kubernetes Gateway API is emerging as the new standard for security and architecture. We'll dive into the shortcomings of traditional Ingress (including "annotation hell" and recent security vulnerabilities) and highlight the architectural and operational advantages of Gateway API. Finally, we will present a few options on how you can move forward and implement a new solution. Urs Zurbuchen is a Senior Security Consultant at Airlock. As an engineer and consultant for the design and implementation of IT security solutions, he is familiar with the requirements for secure digitalisation processes. Urs has more than 20 years of experience in designing and integrating web application security solutions (web application firewall, authentication, single sign-on, access control) as well as in designing and implementing identity & access management projects (user management, authorisation management, processes, provisioning). Mr Zurbuchen can advise on the conception of non-technical topics such as organisation, guidelines, compliance requirements and regulations, as well as on the implementation of application and system architecture audits.

## Hey Columbus WIP peeps! ## Are you ready for an event that actually gives you what you asked for?? **\-\-\-\-\-\-** **A Small-group coaching conversations for women in product navigating growth, leadership, and career decisions.** **March 10 \| 5:30–8:00 PM** **Rev1 -- NEW SPACE** **330 Rush Alley #100** **Parking Options:** • **Rev1 at The Peninsula** • **Starling St. Garage South** – 377 W. Capital St. • **LAZ Parking (COSI)** – 50 Belle St. • **LAZ Parking Limited** – 375 W. State St. • **Veterans Memorial Lot** – 300 W. Broad St. • **Metered Street Parking** **What moves are you making?** A promotion you’re working toward. A role change you’re considering. A bigger leadership opportunity. A conversation that needs to happen. A decision that’s been sitting in the back of your mind. For our Q1 Women in Product Columbus event, we’re creating space to actually work through those moments. **Making Moves** is an evening of focused, facilitated coaching conversations with experienced mentors from our local product community. This isn’t a panel. It’s not passive networking. It’s small-group dialogue designed to be thoughtful, practical, and worth your time. Here’s how it will work: • You’ll choose a topic that reflects what you’re navigating right now • You’ll join a small coaching circle (5–7 participants) • Each circle is led by a mentor who has lived experience in that area • We’ll run two rounds so you can go deeper or explore a second conversation ### Coaching Topics: • Communicating the Value of Your Work (or Team) • Career Transitions & What’s Next • Growing Into Leadership • Staying Relevant as Technology (and AI) Changes • Getting Alignment and Decisions from Leadership Our goal is simple: you leave with clearer thinking, practical perspective, and at least one next step you feel confident about. Space in each circle will be limited to keep conversations meaningful. If this sounds like the kind of room you’ve been wanting to be in, we’d love to see you on March 10. RSVP here!
