Co-Working Session (Deep Work, all types of work welcome)
Hello! I’m organising a coworking + socialising session for all of us who are working on projects (e.g. our own creations, freelance or remote work) but don't feel like sitting alone at home. 🙂
To ensure that we have time for both socialising AND working, we will be using the so-called “Pomodoro” technique:
**50 mins deep work** (silent), followed by **10 mins break** to socialise. And then repeat!
You are welcome to join whatever your personal background is, and whatever project you are working on.
I (the host) speak English and German, so either language is fine.
——————————————————-
AGENDA:
* **Short Intro**
Tell us who you are and share something about what you will be working on today
* **Pomodoro Session** \- 3x \(3h\)
Each Pomodoro session consists of 50 mins focused “deep work” (no talking, no interruptions, **phones on silent mode**)
-> then 10 mins break: a chance to share your progress with others
-> Repeat
* **15 mins Wrap Up**
Celebrate what you achieved and get to know others 😊
————
The location is **Espresso House near Checkpoint Charlie** (they have multiple outlets - so be sure to go to the correct one!)
Wifi + power plugs are available - but best to bring a fully charged laptop, just in case 🙃
You **do not** have to pay anything. But since we are using the café space, it is common courtesy to buy at least one drink (coffee costs roughly **4 Euros**).

Kostenloser Info-Zoom zum Training: innere Freiheit & Klarheit durch Gefühle
Infoabend zum Dreijahres-Training - Kostenfrei (live über Zoom)
Start: Mi. 11. Mär. 26, 19:00 Uhr
Ende: 21:00 Uhr
Kostenfreier Online-Infoabend zum Dreijahres-Training mit Christian Meyer per Zoom: Einblick in Ausrichtung, Arbeitsweise, Methoden und Raum für Fragen.
Viele Menschen spüren: Ich möchte meine Persönlichkeit entfalten und das leben, was mir wirklich entspricht. Ich möchte lebendig und kreativ sein – nicht mit faulen Kompromissen – und dabei wirkliche Nähe und echte Begegnung erleben.
Das Dreijahres-Training ist ein Praxisweg für ganzheitliche Persönlichkeitsentwicklung und spirituelle Praxis. Es geht darum, inneres Wachstum in die Hand zu nehmen – nicht allein, sondern gemeinsam, in einem klaren, getragenen Rahmen. Und es geht darum, die Verbindung zwischen Körper, Gefühlen und Geist wirklich herzustellen: nicht als Idee, sondern als Erfahrung, die sich im Alltag zeigt.
Dabei ist es Christian wichtig zu betonen: Psychologie und Psychotherapie reichen für menschliches Wachstum nicht aus, wenn das Geistige und das spirituelle Ziel der Erleuchtung außen vor bleiben. Persönlichkeitsentwicklung und Erleuchtung gehören zusammen – als ein Ganzes. Genau diese Ausrichtung prägt die Arbeit im Dreijahres-Training.
Am kostenfreien Online-Infoabend gibt Christian Meyer – Leiter des Trainings – einen Einblick in die Ausrichtung und Arbeitsweise des Dreijahres-Trainings. Du lernst kennen, wie im Training mit Körper, Gefühlen und Geist gearbeitet wird, und bekommst eine erste konkrete Vorstellung davon, wie im Trainingskonzept gearbeitet wird: durch kurze Demonstrationen, erste gemeinsame Schritte und einen Einblick in die Übungs- und Praxisform. So wird sichtbar, wie diese Arbeit praktisch aussieht – nicht nur als Idee, sondern als Erfahrung.
Es wird Raum geben für deine Fragen, die dich jetzt gerade bewegen – und auch das Team ist mit dabei, falls du organisatorische Fragen oder etwas Praktisches auf dem Herzen hast.
2026 beginnt der letzte Zyklus des Dreijahres-Trainings, den Christian selbst in vollem Umfang leiten wird. Viele, die schon länger dabei sind, erleben Christians Arbeit aktuell als besonders präzise, klar und intensiv. Für viele ist das eine besondere Gelegenheit, diesen Weg mit ihm noch einmal in dieser Form zu gehen.
Christian leitet den gesamten Abend, die Übertragung findet per Zoom statt.
Ein Einstieg in Modul I ist noch in München und Wien möglich.
Starttermine Modul I
München: 17.–22.03.2026
Wien: 24.–28.04.2026
Weitere Module folgen jeweils im Frühjahr und Herbst. Bitte meldet euch online auf der Webseite an

Business Netzwerken Berlin in Moabit am 11. März um 8:45 Uhr
Weil es beim letzten Mal so schön war, treffen wir uns diesmal wieder im **CI Space auf der Bugenhagenstraße 9, 10551 Berlin** (https://maps.app.goo.gl/dXaYKm8fkhBsxk42A). Vielen Dank an Iztok Petek, den Inhaber vom CI Space (www.facebook.com/cispaceberlin), der das wieder kostenlos für uns möglich macht - bitte dankt es ihm nach Möglichkeit mit dem Kauf von 1, 2 Getränken vor Ort!
**Bitte seid spätestens 5min vor 9 Uhr da, da wir pünktlich starten werden.** Die ersten sind i. d. R. bereits ab 8:30 Uhr da, um vorab schonmal ein bisschen durchzustarten mit dem Netzwerken :)...
Denkt daran **genügend Visitenkarten,** bitte mindestens eine, mitzubringen für die moderierte Netzwerkrunde.
**Veranstaltungsort:**
CI Space (Berlin-Moabit)
Bugenhagenstraße 9
10551 Berlin
Nächste **U-Bahn-Station**: U9 Turmstraße oder U9 Birkenstraße (jeweils ca. 5 Gehminuten).
**Start:** pünktlich 08:55 Uhr (ab 08:30 Uhr sind sonst die ersten da)
Zum nun bereits 7. Mal verschlägt es uns nach Moabit! Unser neuer Moderator [Der Gottwald (siehe hier)](www.der-gottwald.de) lädt erneut ein und führt euch durch den Morgen.
Wie immer bieten wir eine moderierte Netzwerkrunde für euch an, um neue Kontakte zu knüpfen und das eigene Business voran zu treiben, außerdem ist Zeit für etliche weitere Gespräche!
Ein ca. 15-minütiger Impulsvortrag mit Kreativeinlage und ganz viel Mehrwert für euch ist auch wieder eingeplant - falls ihr bei einem zukünftigen Treffen selbst einmal vortragen oder gar ein Treffen moderieren möchtet, meldet euch gern bei uns. Dieses Mal erwartet euch ein interaktiver Vortrag von Johannes Schweig (https://johannesschweig.de/), der euch in aller Kürze näher bringt worum es bei UX Design geht und warum das auch euch - und nicht etwa nur Designer betrifft. Statt grauer Theorie schauen wir uns das praktisch an: In einer kurzen, spielerischen Übung entwickelt ihr in Zweierteams eine einfache Lösung für eine alltägliche Herausforderung, testet sie direkt mit einem Dritten und erlebt, wie schnell Annahmen sichtbar werden. Es geht nicht um schöne Screens, sondern darum, Gedanken greifbar zu machen, Feedback zu bekommen und gemeinsam bessere Entscheidungen zu treffen. Danke, Johannes - Business Netzwerken Berlin freut sich schon sehr auf deinen Kurzvortrag!
Die leckeren Getränke, Snacks oder was auch immer euch zum Kauf animiert hat, bezahlt bitte selbst ;)...

**(Fast) alle** Gründer\*innen, StartUps, Freiberufler, Unternehmer und Unternehmensvertreter sind willkommen beim Business Netzwerken Meetup. Die Teilnahme ist generell kostenlos und **nicht** an eine Mitgliedschaft gebunden. **Bitte beachten:** Unternehmer mit Multi-Level Marketing-Geschäftsmodellen schließen wir von unseren Veranstaltungen komplett aus, da wir hier die Erfahrung machen mussten, dass es dabei oft nur ums Verkaufen geht, und meistens kein echtes Interesse am Netzwerken und am Gegenüber existiert. **Weiterhin** stehen wir deshalb auch allen Arten des Provisionsgeschäfts (Finanzoptimierer, Immobilienmakler, Versicherungsvertreter, etc.) extrem kritisch gegenüber und gestatten diesen keine Teilnahme an unseren Events. Solltet ihr der Meinung sein, ihr fallt nicht in diese Kategorie, obwohl ihr in einer der genannten Branchen arbeitet, so sprecht uns bitte im Vorfeld an.
Wir freuen uns darauf, auch **dich** persönlich kennenzulernen und dir bei der Entwicklung deines Geschäfts weiterzuhelfen!

The Lineup for the evening:
Talk 1: **Ask the Career Coach** \- Live AMA \(Ask Me Anything\)
**Abstract:** The tech job market has changed a lot in the past couple of years. Layoffs, longer job searches, and rapid shifts driven by AI are leaving many professionals wondering about their next move.
In this interactive AMA session, Valentina Scipione will answer your questions about careers in tech.
Bring anything you have been wondering about, for example:
* navigating the current job market
* what hiring managers actually look for
* career transitions within tech
* job search strategy
* how AI may reshape roles in data and engineering
No slides. Just your questions and an open conversation.

Based in Berlin and co-organiser of the PyData Berlin community, she brings together leadership experience and professional coaching to help tech professionals build more fulfilling careers with strategy, not autopilot.
**Talk 2: Solving real life problems with basic Python**
**Abstract:** 2 years ago I had the privilege and pleasure of meeting an amazing person who invited me to join the Python en Español community.
This community is mainly aimed at people who have 0 to no knowledge about the language and they want to learn. The recurring problem for many of these practitioner is to find good real life examples to practice their skills.
Did you know that you can solve 90% of business problems with only prints and inputs?
well, maybe that was a lie but not far off from the truth.
In this talk I want to guide you on how you can solve a real life case scenario of a business wanting to adjust the prices of their articles base on real time demand. Starting with a few variables an input and a print and slowly grow into a real time system consuming from different sources, to answer the hardest question there is.
Was it worth it? or should we have stopped at reading from files 7 iterations ago?
**Speaker:** Eric Rishmüller
**Bio:** Eric works as a Lead Data Engineer at Thomann Musikhaus. He has been living in Berlin for the past five years and is originally from Argentina. Eric started sharing his passion for Python seven years ago and is quite active in Spanish-speaking Python communities.
**Lightning talks**
There will be slots for 2-3 Lightning Talks (3-5 Minutes for each).

12MIN.ME | BERLIN | STARTUP #1.2 🚀
**🚨🚨🚨 ATTENTION: we moved to luma. please RVSP [HERE](https://luma.com/12min.me_Berlin)🚨🚨🚨**
# [12min.me](https://12min.me/) START UP is a brand new morning format for bold ideas and fresh perspectives
Berlin Startup Community, we’re launching something new.
Together with betahaus, we’re bringing the [12min.me](http://12min.me/) spirit into the morning.
[12min.me](http://12min.me/) STARTUP is a three-part breakfast series, embedded in the well-known betabreakfast format.
Instead of three speakers in one evening, we do things differently.
One morning. One speaker. One focused impulse.
12 minutes. One voice. Zero fluff.
Join us for the first edition of [12min.me](http://12min.me/) STARTUP, a compact morning session for founders, operators, creatives and everyone building things that matter.
**✔️ What to expect**
* One inspiring startup-related talk
* 12 minutes of sharp insight
* Curated exchange over breakfast
* The familiar [12min.me](http://12min.me/) energy, just earlier in the day#
🚀 **The formula stays the same**
* 12 minutes talk
* 12 minutes of Q&A
* 12 minutes of networking
The familiar [12min.me](http://12min.me/) energy, just earlier in the day
**🎤 Our speakers**
**Speaker 1 @March 5**
**[Jonathan Hegel](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonathan-beisiegel) from [FW Systems](https://www.linkedin.com/company/frachtwerk/)**
Jonathan is the CEO of FW Systems, a specialized system house for open source solutions and IT services with a fixed-price model. After years in traditional IT, where he regularly had to work night shifts due to emergencies, he decided to do things better—for customers and for IT professionals. Today, he help SMEs transform their IT from a constant work in progress to a reliable infrastructure they can depend on.
**Jonathan\`s talk: "How we are completely rethinking system administration as a service for your company"**
Companies cannot possibly do everything themselves. So things like accounting, logistics, and IT are outsourced to external service providers. In the IT sector, system houses have been doing very well for themselves in recent decades! Every little thing is charged for, and if there are any errors, the customer is expected to open a ticket. We are rethinking this! We are applying the “as-a-service” concept from Airbnb, Uber, and Everstox to system administration and taking responsibility. Jonathan will show how this works in his talk.
**Speaker 2 @March 12**
**[Anne Biedermann](https://www.linkedin.com/in/anne-biedermann/), independent wealth partner for women**
Anne has extensive experience across venture capital, single-family-office & HNWI investing, and early-stage operations. She works with investors who are building, inheriting, or stewarding wealth on how to allocate capital with clarity — particularly where venture capital intersects with long-term wealth strategy. Anne also invests personally, giving her a practitioner’s perspective on capital allocation decisions.
**Anna\`s talk: "Not All Capital Is the Same: Decoding Investor Behavior"**
Founders often assume all investors evaluate risk, timelines, and returns the same way and that assumption is costly. This session breaks down how funds, family offices, and individual investors actually make decisions, where founder–investor misalignment typically begins, and how founders can better position themselves for the right kind of capital, not just any capital.
**Speaker 3 @March 19**
**[Immo Ait Stapelfeld](https://www.linkedin.com/in/immoaitstapelfeld/), Co-Founder & CEO at [913.ai](https://913.ai)**
**"From Legal Complexity to Practical AI. How We Help Regulated Industries Use AI Without Losing Control"**
This presentation tells the story of Immo’s transition from a trained lawyer working in mass proceedings to an entrepreneur building AI products for regulated industries. His legal background, combined with hands-on experience as a founder, shaped a pragmatic view on AI. not as a disruptive replacement, but as a controlled and compliant tool. At[ ](http://913.ai)[913.ai](https://913.ai), this perspective enables conservative organizations such as insurers to enter the AI era in a way that respects regulation, responsibility, and existing teams while still unlocking real efficiency gains.
