We’re hosting the **Okaloa Flowlab** Multi-Team Simulation, a tabletop experience that mimics the complexity of modern teamwork. If your "Multi-team" projects feel more like "Multi-team" traffic jams, this workshop is for you. We will play a realistic simulation of how work moves (and gets stuck) across an organisation. We will run several rounds to see how simple policy changes can lead to massive improvements in delivery time. You’ll experience first-hand why "keeping everyone busy" is actually killing your speed. What you’ll learn: * How to spot bottlenecks before they become disasters. * Why "resource efficiency" is a trap. * How to manage dependencies without losing your mind. Come and explore Flight Level 2 while having fun. This is organised as part of our Flight Levels® Flight Club - Finland series of events.

**Summer is coming!** Give your old or unused clothes a new lease of life by giving them a little attention. Small details can change the look of an item of clothing, and through creativity and intuition, you can bring new life into old fabrics. Embroidery is a decorative sewing technique in which you use a needle and thread to create patterns, lettering and motifs. In this workshop we will in addition to the floral weeks, embroider flower motifs, either on clothes/fabric you bring with you or on a canvas that you can turn into your own work of art. **When:** **Tuesday, May 26th, at 15.00 - 17.00** **Where:** **Valo-tila** Lapinlahden lähde Lapinlahden polku 8 00180 Helsinki This workshop focuses on sustainability and on how we can use creativity to transform and change things instead of throwing them away. Materials will be provided, but I **invite you to bring some fabric** you would like to give a creative touch. No experience with embroidery or sewing is necessary to participate. All flowers are unique; we learn by doing.

Welcome to join our Sahaja Yoga meditation meetings in English! The meetings are free of charge and you can just show up. The group consists of people of different ages and nationalities who have been meditating different periods of time. Newcomers are welcome at any time. We normally sit on chairs or on pillows on the floor, so there is no need to bring a mat and you can wear normal clothes. Meditation means mental silence or thoughtless awareness. You are present here and now, but your mind is not bombarded by thoughts from the past or the future. In this state, you feel peace and joy, which are the essential elements of the present moment. With regular practice of meditation, it is possible to establish this state within us. The group is lead by volunteers who are experienced and can offer guidance to get you started. We give a short introduction to the meditation and after that we do meditation exercises. We also give tips on how to meditate at home. After the meditation class, we have a cup of tea and there is time for questions. Welcome! We hope to see you in our meditation meetings!

**This event is aimed at mid- to senior-level women in cybersecurity. Signing up on Meetup does not guarantee a spot. We will review signups and send confirmation emails manually.** This event brings together mid‑senior women in cyber to explore how our thinking evolves over time: the shift from execution to perspective, from technical depth to strategic influence, and from learning the rules to understanding when they must be bent. Please note that we can accommodate dietary restrictions for those who get a spot by 22.05.2026. However, due to some constraints, we may not be able to make special food arrangements for those who get a spot after this date. We appreciate your understanding. **Agenda** 17.00-18.00: Doors open, dinner and drinks will be served 18:00-19.00:Talk by Laura Kankaala - “FAFO (F\*\*\* Around and Find Out)” From 19.00: Open discussion and networking Our speaker, Laura Kankaala will share insights shaped by real world experience, including: • How mindset and priorities change after several years in the field • Mistakes that became turning points • Balancing expertise with influence • What she wish she had known earlier in her career • How seasoned professionals build authority and perspective **Laura Kankaala** works as Head of Threat Intelligence at F-Secure. She specialises in understanding the latest scams, hacks, malware and fraudulent behaviours in cyber crime and current threats that affect everyday internet users. Her background primarily lies in offensive security - ethical hacking. She's also known for her appearance in Finnish hacking TV documentary Team Whack. After the talk, we’ll continue the conversation at the tables with open, honest, experience driven discussions among peers who understand the weight and complexity of this work. This evening is designed to recognise and celebrate the women who are shaping security, not just implementing it. We see you. We value your expertise. And we hope you’ll join us for a gathering built for women like you. **We have a no-show policy** If you are not able to participate and do not cancel, you will not be allowed to participate in upcoming W4CFI events for the next six months. **Photos and social media** Please note that pictures from the event will be shared in our social media channels.

**15:30 to 17:30 - Jam Session Part 1** We will play a range of songs which everyone can join in with. The second part of this session often has a theme around an artists, genre or season. Each song has an instrumental section, and we encourage people to improvise, harmonise or just to play it as they feel it. We put the words and chords on the TV screens and we start playing together. **17:30 to 18:00 - Food Break** Grab something from the menu, chat to your fellow players, meet new people. Look through the song book. Start playing random stuff. **18:00 to 20:00 - Jam Session Part 2** We will play some more advanced songs. The last part of the session is requests from the jam group. Come and join us for a play-a-long jam. We will be based in the cellar bar at Iguana on Mannerheimintie. We keep it simple ... we put the words and chords on laptop. Please bring a tablet if you have one so you can also access the songbook at ukejam.online ... or you can use one of our TV screens we will have dotted around the place. We will have a limited number of spare ukuleles and guitars. If you don't play anything, you are welcome to come and just hangout, sing if you want to. If you like, pick up a ukulele, and someone will help you play a few simple chords and play along. If you have your own instrument, it is best to bring it. Also if you have a tablet, you can access the songbook at ukejam.online and then you don't have to stare at the TV screen all night. Everyone is welcome ... we also have a community WhatsApp group that you can join when you come to the event. We aim to be a safe and inclusive space for everyone. Beginners and experienced musicians are equally welcome. This isn't an open stage, but a space where a large group of people can play along together, in a style that is comfortable to them. It's all about meeting people, and about enjoying music together ... more like a camp fire sing-a-long where everyone is welcome.

Hello sporty population! Join us for badminton and meet people from around the world! Everyone is welcome, whether you’re a beginner or already experienced. **IMPORTANT**: Spots are limited, so please reserve yours in advance. Only registered participants can join to ensure fair access for everyone. If you mark “going” but do not attend, or fail to cancel at least 1 day before(By 9pm Saturday), you may be suspended from the next two sessions. 📍 Location: Talihalli Huopalahti ⏰ Time: 11:00–12:30 🏸 Courts: 9, 10, and 11 You can meet us at the entrance a little before 11:00 or come directly to the courts (**please do not enter before our booking starts**). Who can join? • Open to everyone, regardless of background or gender • No badminton skills needed – beginners are welcome • **Age limit: 16+** Event is free, but please bring your rackets and indoor shoes, or you can borrow a racket from the hall for free if needed. We are committed to making our events and activities accessible to those who need them most. Therefore, **individuals with a refugee background are welcome to attend free of charge without prior registration.** If you plan to join, simply send a message to Alaa to let us know you’re coming. This approach is intentional. Many refugees and newcomers face practical, cultural, and psychological barriers that can make formal registration difficult or discouraging. By removing this requirement, we aim to create a more inclusive, low-threshold environment where participation feels safe, simple, and welcoming. Our events are designed to support the mental health and well-being of refugees and immigrants, while also encouraging dialogue that challenges cross-cultural stigmas and stereotypes. We believe open access is an important step in building trust, increasing participation, and creating meaningful connections across communities. After badminton, we'll enjoy Talihalli's sauna and maybe go to a local restaurant to grab some lunch after the game.

Why does boredom feel so unbearable? Is boredom simply the absence of stimulation — or does it reveal something deeper about how we live? This meetup explores boredom not as a minor inconvenience, but as a philosophical problem connected to meaning, desire, work, technology, loneliness, and the search for fulfillment. In a world full of entertainment and constant distraction, why do so many people still feel restless and unsatisfied? Together we will discuss questions such as: * Is boredom a personal problem or a social one? * Can a meaningful life still contain boredom? * Why do comfort and entertainment often fail to satisfy us? * Does boredom push us toward growth — or toward escape? * What does boredom reveal about modern life? No philosophical background is needed. The goal is open, thoughtful discussion rather than academic debate. Come curious, reflective, skeptical — or simply bored. Description by ChatGPT

In this session we'll explore strategies to protect our codebases through unit and integration testing, documentation, and code review along with additional ways of providing context and guard rails to our AI agents as they carry out the work we've assigned them to do. By the time we're done, you'll have a firm grasp of the problem and understand some helpful options for protecting your codebase from vibe coding mishaps getting YOLOed into prod. **YouTube Link** TBD
