Hypothetical Agentic Unicorn Clinic: Improving Random Ideas until Perfect
\#\# The Premise
What if you could take any idea â half-baked, borrowed, ridiculous, too early, too late â and run it through a gauntlet of AI agents and sharp minds until it either becomes bulletproof or reveals exactly why it doesn't work?
That's this meetup.
\*\*The Hypothetical Agentic Unicorn Clinic\*\* is a structured, playful, and rigorous session where we take startup ideas â yours, someone else's, totally made up â and improve them in real time using agentic workflows, collective intelligence, and honest feedback.
No judgment. No stakes. Just ideas getting better.
\-\-\-
\#\# Why "Hypothetical"?
The hardest part of sharing an idea isn't the idea â it's the fear of being judged for having it.
So we made it hypothetical.
You're not pitching your life's work. You're not asking for funding. You're not committing to anything. You're running a \*\*thought experiment\*\*: \*What would it take for this idea to become a unicorn?\*
That framing changes everything. When the idea is hypothetical, you can be honest. You can poke holes. You can say "this probably doesn't work because..." and someone else can say "unless you do X." You can disagree without it being personal. You can be wrong without it mattering.
The best insights come when the stakes feel low enough to think clearly.
Hypothetical Idea Submission Form
https://form.typeform.com/to/CPRbn0RL
\-\-\-
\#\# What Actually Happens
\*\*You bring an idea. Any idea.\*\*
It could be:
\- Something you've been sitting on but are afraid to say out loud
\- A startup you saw and thought "that's almost right but\.\.\."
\- A totally absurd concept you find interesting
\- A real thing you're building and want to stress\-test anonymously
\- Something an AI suggested to you that you couldn't stop thinking about
\*\*We run it through the clinic.\*\*
The group â with the help of AI agents â takes the idea through a structured improvement loop:
1\. \*\*Diagnosis\*\*: What's the actual insight here? What problem does this solve?
2\. \*\*Challenge\*\*: Where does this break? What assumptions is it making?
3\. \*\*Repair\*\*: How do we fix the broken parts without losing the core?
4\. \*\*Amplification\*\*: If this worked\, what would make it a unicorn?
5\. \*\*Verdict\*\*: Is it viable\, pivotable\, or dead on arrival â and why?
Each round takes about 20 minutes. We run 4-6 ideas per session.
\-\-\-
\#\# The Role of AI Agents
This is an agentic meetup â so agents do real work, not just window dressing.
During the session, we'll use agents to:
\- \*\*Research the market\*\* in real time: Is anyone building this? What does the landscape look like?
\- \*\*Steelman the idea\*\*: Generate the strongest possible version of the argument for why this works
\- \*\*Identify failure modes\*\*: Systematically surface the ways this breaks
\- \*\*Propose pivots\*\*: Suggest modifications that preserve the core insight while fixing structural problems
\- \*\*Draft a one\-pager\*\*: Turn the improved idea into a coherent pitch summary
The agents accelerate the process and introduce angles the group might miss. The humans provide judgment, context, and the instinct for what actually matters.
This is what governed agents with flexible orchestration looks like in practice â not automation replacing thinking, but amplifying it.
Hypothetical Idea Submission Form
https://form.typeform.com/to/CPRbn0RL
\#\# Who Should Come
You don't need to have a startup. You don't need to be a founder. You don't need to have the idea ready when you register.
You should come if:
\- You're curious about how AI agents can be used for real strategic thinking
\- You want to practice the skill of rapid idea development and critique
\- You enjoy building on other people's ideas and having yours built on
\- You want to see agentic workflows in action\, not just hear about them
\- You want to contribute to a room of builders who think seriously about ideas
\*\*What we're looking for in participants:\*\*
\- Technically literate enough to follow an agentic workflow
\- Willing to be both generous and honest in feedback
\- Comfortable with ambiguity and unfinished thinking
\- Curious\, not defensive
You don't have to be an expert. You have to be willing to think in public.
\-\-\-
\#\# Format & Practicalities
\*\*Duration:\*\* 2-2.5 hours
\*\*Format:\*\* In-person (Prague) with livestream option
\*\*Ideas per session:\*\* 4â6
\*\*Each idea:\*\* \~20 minutes of structured clinic work
\*\*Timeline:\*\*
\- 18:00 â Doors open\, idea submissions collected
\- 18:30 â Brief intro: the format\, the rules\, the spirit
\- 18:45 â Clinic begins \(3â4 ideas\, 20 min each\)
\- 20:15 â Open discussion: what did we learn?
\- 20:30 â Drinks\, conversations\, follow\-ups
\*\*How to submit an idea:\*\*
Fill out a short form before the event (2 sentences max â idea + the core assumption). We select 3â4 ideas for the session. All submissions are treated with discretion. You can submit anonymously if you prefer.
Hypothetical Idea Submission Form
https://form.typeform.com/to/CPRbn0RL
\#\# The Rules
1\. \*\*No bad ideas\.\*\* There are only ideas at different stages of development\.
2\. \*\*Critique the idea\, not the person\.\*\* "This doesn't work because X" not "you haven't thought this through\."
3\. \*\*Build before you destroy\.\*\* Steelman first\, then challenge\.
4\. \*\*Hypothetical protects everyone\.\*\* No one is committed to building what we discuss\.
5\. \*\*Confidentiality by default\.\*\* What's shared in the clinic stays in the clinic\.
\-\-\-
\#\# Why This Matters
Most ideas die not because they're bad â but because the person holding them never found the right room to test them.
The clinic is that room.
It's also a live demonstration of what agentic tools can do for strategic thinking. Not AI replacing judgment, but AI extending it â doing the research, generating alternatives, stress-testing assumptions â so the humans in the room can focus on what they do best: connecting patterns, making calls, and knowing when something is worth pursuing.
\*\*When execution becomes cheap, the premium moves to orientation.\*\*
The clinic is practice for that skill.

Paris. Blurred Lines: Evolution of Product and Design with AI
**IMPORTANT**: to participate in the event, please register on Lu.ma â https://luma.com/83i9qgsy
Hosted by **[Projector Global Community](https://www.linkedin.com/company/projector-global-community/?utm_source=luma), Le Comptoir Avalon - Paris and supported by [AI Collective Paris](https://www.aicollective.com/chapters/paris?utm_source=luma)**, this session explores how AI is reshaping the day-to-day reality of Product Managers and Designersâand what this means for roles, ownership, and collaboration inside modern product teams.
âWho owns discovery when AI can generate insights?
Who defines the solution when design tools can prototype instantly?
What even distinguishes product thinking from design thinking anymore?
âYouâll hear from:
* â\*\*[Vaska Vlahova](https://www.linkedin.com/in/vlahova/?utm_source=luma)\*\*, Staff Product Designer at [Qonto](https://qonto.com/en?utm_source=luma)
* â\*\*[Florian Herlicq](https://www.linkedin.com/in/florianherlicq/?utm_source=luma)\*\*, Lead Product Manager at [Orus](https://www.orus.eu/?utm_source=luma)
* â\*\*[Justine Potin](https://www.linkedin.com/in/justine-potin-1ab9a437/?utm_source=luma)\*\*, Product Manager at [Finary](https://finary.com/en?utm_source=luma)
â**Moderated by:**
* â\*\*[Kate Mas](https://www.linkedin.com/in/kate-mas/?skipRedirect=true&utm_source=luma),\*\* Career Strategist at [messy careers](https://katemas.me/?utm_source=luma) (ex-Qonto, ex-Preply) â guiding the discussion on blurred boundaries and future-ready skills in product and design
âThis isnât a âProduct Manager vs Designerâ debate. Itâs a conversation about what happens when traditional role boundaries stop making sense.
â**What weâll explore:**
* âWhere Product Manager and Design responsibilities are already merging
* âHow AI is changing product discovery, decision-making, and execution
* âThe risks of blurred ownership (and how to avoid them)
* âWhat skills will actually matter going forward
* âHow to operate effectively in a world where roles are less defined
âExpect a candid, practical discussionâless theory, more real-world shifts youâre likely already feeling.
âCome if youâre a Product Manager, Designer, or product leader trying to make sense of your role in this transitionâand what to do about it.
â**A friendly note:** Guests are encouraged to buy a drink to support our hosts **Le Comptoir Avalon**.
â**Agenda**
* â18:30 â Doors open
* â19:00â19:10 â Intro
* â19:10â20:10 â Panel (60 min)
* â20:10â20:25 â Audience Q&A
* â20:25â21:30 â Networking

All Fem Board Game Night
Join us for a night of board gaming with FANG (Fem All Night Gaming). **We are an all fem board game group** in Columbus, Ohio.
No cis-men, please!
We play modern hobby board games! If you're unsure what that is, we can teach you!
We'll be meeting at Round Table Games in Dublin! They have snacks and drink. They allow outside food if you want more than a snack. We will be playing in the store on the right when you walk in!
Board games at The Forge
The Forge does have a full bar and kitchen. There is no cover charge but they do request all attendees to purchase a minimum of ~$20 per person. Soft drink refills are $1 each. Please support our hosts so we can continue to provide great events for the group!
The Forge has a large library of games available for us to enjoy. Hosts and regulars will also provide numerous popular games but please bring any games you would like to teach and/or play.
Doors open at 6, and we expect gaming to be rolling by around 630. Please promptly end your games and clear out the space at 10pm when the bar closes.
We encourage socializing but do not permit disruptive behavior of any kind. Thank you for your continued commitment to providing a fun and welcoming space to veteran, newbie, and rookie gamers in the Columbus area.
Parking can be challenging. There is a parking lot behind the neighboring Mexican restaurant that is free and easy to walk from but it's a bit hidden.
Open-Table RPG Meetup!
Try new games, meet new people, and find out what story games are all about!
Explore the reaches of space! Witness kingdoms rise and fall! Create and explore tragedies! All within a single game night.
We play story games like Fiasco, Kingdom, Polaris and Microscope that encourage everyone at the table to participate creatively. We also have one-shots of indie, OSR, and narrative-focused RPGs such as Apocalypse World, Dread, Lady Blackbird, and Old School Essentials!
Everybody's welcome! It doesn't matter if you've never tried story games before or never played roleplaying games at all! Just bring your brain and a good attitude and come try it out!

What If Your AI Could Be a Team? - Chad Green
**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.

You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge.
**Abstract**
GitHub Copilot is powerful, but what if you could scale from a solo AI assistant to an entire team of specialized agents working in parallel? This session introduces Squad: an open-source framework for multi-agent orchestration that lets you define teams of AI agents with specific roles, responsibilities, and expertise.
We'll progress from Copilot basics to the Copilot CLI, explore how Agents add autonomy, and see how Instructions and Skills let you customize agent behavior. Then, the climax: a live demo where a Squad team of 3 agents (Lead, Developer, Tester) stands up and builds a working application in real-time, showcasing true multi-agent collaboration.
Whether you're new to AI or exploring how to scale your use of Copilot, this session will show you what's possible when agents work as a team.
