¿Quieres descubrir Zúrich desde una perspectiva diferente? Dado el éxito de la primera experiencia, el **domingo 22 de febrero 2026** repetimos el **tour a pie por el centro de la ciudad**, donde exploraremos las huellas que dejó la época colonial en Zúrich. Aunque Suiza nunca fue una potencia colonial, muchas de sus empresas y ciudadanos se beneficiaron de las colonias en distintos continentes. Ese intercambio no solo impulsó la economía, sino que también alimentó el desarrollo científico de la época. Hoy en día, aún podemos descubrir huellas de esa historia en diferentes rincones de la ciudad. Durante el recorrido visitaremos **un buen número de lugares curiosos** y haremos una corta **visita al Museo Etnográfico** (entrada gratuita). 📍 **Punto de encuentro:** Entrada de la estación de Zürich Wiedikon, a las **14:15** ⏰ **Duración:** 2 horas y media (finaliza aprox. a las 17:00 en la estación central) 💰 **Coste simbólico:** 5 CHF (vía Twint), destinado únicamente al mantenimiento del grupo. Menores de 16 años no pagan. 👉 Nota: El tour se realizará solo si el tiempo acompaña, ya que se trata de un recorrido principalmente al aire libre. 👉 Una vez inscritos, os contactaremos por privado para facilitar los detalles de pago. 🌍 ¡Anímate a mirar la ciudad con otros ojos y a descubrir la cara menos conocida de Zúrich! ⚠️ **Disclaimer legal:** *La participación en el tour es voluntaria y bajo la entera responsabilidad de cada persona. Hola Zurich no asume ninguna responsabilidad por posibles accidentes, lesiones, pérdidas, robos o daños materiales que pudieran ocurrir antes, durante o después del recorrido.

Hola Zurich se reserva el derecho de expulsar a aquellos participantes que molesten o incomoden al grupo.*

Meeting @ Improving's office in Downtown Columbus, near Cosi. Parking is paid, food & drink are free! This time we're hanging out after the long winter break. We are going to look at a group-member's project used to help learn the fundamentals of Go, and if time allows, we can take a look at how we like to build Go projects using AI.

Join the Columbus AI community for our quarterly gathering — a casual, community-focused evening where everyone has a chance to share, learn, and connect. These open mic–style events give anyone in the community up to **5 minutes** to present a project, share a tool, pose a question, or offer a perspective on the evolving AI space. No slides required — just a welcoming space to exchange ideas and keep the local AI conversation moving. If you’d like to take the stage, message **Chris (the organizer)** with a **title and short description** of what you’d like to share. Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus. Sponsored by [Transform Labs](https://www.transformlabs.com/services)

**\*\*\*\* More details and sign up at: https://aifalliance.org/summit-2026/ \*\*\*\*** **What is AI Freedom Alliance?** AI Freedom Alliance promotes the responsible growth of AI guided by practical, commonsense ethics. Our nonprofit is built by professionals from a wide range of industries and is made up entirely of small- and mediumbusiness representatives—never large tech companies. We provide a counterbalance to big corporate influence, focusing instead on how AI can benefit businesses and the world at large. **What’s Happening?** ***The inaugural AI Freedom Alliance Summit.*** This full-day event will explore how we can ensure AI is adopted responsibly through shared ethical standards that empower humanity. The summit will feature interactive and educational sessions led by thought leaders, technologists, policymakers, and advocates who are passionate about making AI fair, transparent, and beneficial for everyone. **Why Attend?** Learn about the legal and technical challenges with implementing AI solutions within your organization. Build better solutions while protecting your organization from legal and compliance risks. And learn how to think strategically about AI as a differentiation tool for your business. This summit is highly recommended for C-Suite leaders to learn as well as interact with each other and our sponsors.
