**‼️IMPORTANT! Please register on [Luma Page](https://luma.com/1gb0mkfm) ‼️** *Everyone is talking about AI. Few are sharing what actually happens after the headlines.* *What does AI look like when it moves beyond the hype, LinkedIn hot takes, and “10 prompts that will change your life” energy? How are people really using it inside startups, businesses, education, community building, and product development?* Join us for an evening of practical insights from founders, builders, educators, and innovators who use AI in real projects — not just talk about it. Hosted by Projector Global Community by [@prjctr_institute](https://prjctr.com/en), in collaboration with[ Xolo ](https://www.xolo.io/es-en/home?ref=OLENAPRJCTR?utm_source=olena&utm_medium=community&utm_campaign=prjctr_spain&utm_content=socials)and [ESEI business school ](https://www.eseibusinessschool.com/)Barcelona, this event is designed for people who want to understand where AI creates real value today: what works, what doesn’t, what’s still messy, and how AI is changing the way we build, collaborate, learn, and grow. **Together, we’ll unpack:** → How AI is being used in real projects across different industries → What happens after the first excitement and experimentation stage → Where AI creates actual business, product, educational, and community value → What founders, educators, and builders are learning from using AI in practice → What still doesn’t work as smoothly as everyone pretends → How to think about AI not as a trend, but as a working tool And yes, we’ll also have an interactive panel discussion where speakers will share their honest takes, real examples, and lessons learned from working with AI in different contexts.

Join us for our first [Kyverno](https://kyverno.io/)-dedicated meetup before the summer break 🌴 We want to thank **[Schwarz Digits Spain](https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwarz-digits-spain/)** for kindly hosting us for this evening of learning and networking! **🧭** **What is Kyverno?** **[Kyverno](https://kyverno.io/)** is a CNCF-graduated, Kubernetes-native policy engine. Unlike other tools that require learning a new programming language, Kyverno allows you to manage cluster governance, security, and compliance using familiar Kubernetes manifests. With zero coding required, you can easily: * **Validate**: Block non-compliant resources before they hit your cluster. * **Mutate**: Automatically inject sidecars, labels, or configurations on the fly. * **Generate**: Automatically create new resources (such as NetworkPolicies or ConfigMaps) when a new namespace is provisioned. **📅 Agenda** * **18:30-18:45**. Doors Open. * **18:45-19:45**. Talks (see below). * **19:45-20:30**. Mingling and food. **📍Location:** c/ Bergara 13\, Barcelona \| [https://maps.app.goo.gl/zd6h3BGzHNxgAgjT6](https://maps.app.goo.gl/zd6h3BGzHNxgAgjT6) **🎙️ Talks** **1️⃣ The Kyverno Five: New Policy Types And What You Can Do With Them**, [Cortney Nickerson](https://www.linkedin.com/in/cortney-nickerson-26836413a/) *\- Head of Community at [Nirmata](https://nirmata.com)* (Talk in English 🇬🇧) As Kubernetes has evolved, so has Kyverno! This talk provides a tour of the five new Kyverno policy types, ValidatingPolicy, ImageValidatingPolicy, MutatingPolicy, GeneratingPolicy, DeletingPolicy, with real-world examples of how you can use them to solve complex security, automation, and governance issues. The talk will end by showcasing how you can combine the usage of these policy types, for advanced platform engineering solutions. **2️⃣ Kyverno más allá de la validación: automatización con mutación y generación de recursos**, [Javier Dompablo](https://www.linkedin.com/in/javier-d-62a7b824b) - *Expert Platform Engineer and Product Security en [Schwarz Digits](https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwarz-digits-spain/)* (Talk in Spanish 🇪🇸) En esta sesión exploraremos dos de las capacidades más potentes de Kyverno: la mutación y la generación de recursos. Veremos cómo automatizar las configuraciones, aplicar de forma transparente los estándares de la plataforma a los equipos de desarrollo y reducir la carga operativa mediante la creación y la modificación automáticas de recursos en Kubernetes. A través de ejemplos prácticos, descubriremos cómo implementar políticas que mejoran la consistencia, la seguridad y la gobernanza de los clústeres sin necesidad de modificar las aplicaciones.

Some of it runs during install, some in CI, some inside the editor, and some with access to real credentials. This talk explains how recent supply-chain attacks abused that trust and what developers can do to reduce risk without stopping delivery. **19:20 Under the hood: How V8 powers your JS apps (and why you should care)** Speaker: [Gwyneth Rose](https://www.linkedin.com/in/gwyneth-rose/), Senior Engineer at Lodgify You've transpiled your JavaScript, minified it, chunked it, and sent it to your CDN. But what happens when the code actually hits the browser? In this talk, we'll walk through the workings of V8, the JavaScript engine that powers Chromium-based browsers and Node.js. We'll focus on its JIT (just-in-time) compiler, how it learns about your code at runtime, and how it optimizes for performance as you use a web app. We'll also go over concrete techniques to make the JIT compiler's job easier, helping you stay in V8's fastest execution path. **19:50: Drinks and networking!** **20:45 Meetup finished** Would you like to talk at the next meetup?

## **From Data Autonomy to Adaptive AI: Building Systems That Change How Decisions Get Made** **DOORS OPEN: 18:30** **TALKS START: 19:00** **NETWORKING: 20:00 - 21:30** ## **Our Speakers** **Marta Expósito Ventura, PhD, Head of Data, Stark Future** **Africa Perianez, Co-founder & CEO, Causal Foundry** ## **Marta Esposito - From ticket queues to data autonomy - engineering the shift** **Marta Esposito is Head of Data at Stark Future, an electric motorcycle company building high-performance, connected vehicles at the intersection of hardware, software, manufacturing and data.** **In her talk, Marta will explore what it takes to move a data function away from reactive ticket queues and towards a more autonomous operating model. As connected products generate increasingly rich streams of operational, product and user data, the role of data teams changes: from responding to requests, to enabling better decisions across the organisation.** **Her session will look at the engineering, organisational and cultural shift behind data autonomy: how teams structure data work, prioritise internal demand, build trust in data products and move closer to the real systems they support.** ## **Africa Perianez - Designing AI for imperfect conditions** **Africa Perianez is Co-founder and CEO of Causal Foundry, where she leads a team of engineers and AI scientists building reinforcement learning and personalisation technologies for real-world operational decision-making.** **Her work focuses on adaptive AI infrastructure that supports decisions across healthcare, logistics, behavioural nudging, demand forecasting, stockout prevention and resource allocation. Causal Foundry works with global partners including the Gates Foundation, Google.org, GAVI, Lilly and Johnson & Johnson, applying AI in environments where decisions are complex, resources are constrained and impact matters.** **In this talk, Africa will explore how AI systems move beyond prediction and dashboards into adaptive decision support. What does it take to build systems that can operate across changing contexts, local constraints and human behaviour? And how do you design AI that supports better decisions without pretending the real world is cleaner than it is?** ## **What’s In It For You?** **Some of the most interesting work in AI today is not just about building more powerful models. It is about turning data, machine learning and decision intelligence into systems that people and organisations can actually use.** **In this DeepTech Talks edition, Marta and Africa will explore two complementary sides of applied AI: how data teams become more autonomous inside complex organisations, and how adaptive AI systems support operational decisions in the real world.** **You’ll hear about:** * **How data teams move from reactive service models to autonomous data products** * **What it takes to build AI systems that support operational decision-making** * **How reinforcement learning and personalisation can be applied beyond consumer tech** * **The gap between dashboards, predictions and decisions that actually change outcomes** * **How technical teams work with messy real-world systems, constraints and stakeholders** **Expect a grounded conversation about AI that becomes s part of how organisations sense, decide and act.** ## **Who Should Come?** * **Data scientists, ML engineers and AI engineers** * **Data leaders, analytics leaders and engineering managers** * **Product leaders working with data-heavy or AI-enabled systems** * **Deep tech founders and technical operators** * **People working across healthtech, mobility, logistics, manufacturing or decision intelligence** * **Anyone curious about how applied AI becomes operational infrastructure** ## **Extras** **We’ll have food and drinks. 🍷🍕** **Come ready to meet engineers, founders, esearchers, data leaders and technology builders working on the next generation of applied AI systems.** **Spaces are limited, so grab your spot on Meetup while you can.** **Brought to you by DeepTech Recruitment & Cloudworks.** The organisers and venue reserve the right to refuse admission or entry and shall not be held liable for any incidents, losses or damages occurring during the event.

**Hello, fellow DevOps enthusiasts 🤓** On **July 2nd**, we'll meet again for a couple of insightful talks, hosted by [InnoIT Consulting](https://www.inno-it.es/en/) 📍**Location**: C/ Diputació\, 280\, Bajos 2ª · Barcelona \| https://maps\.app\.goo\.gl/CnaqHvZnv32T8Un47 \-\-\-\-\-\- 📅 **Agenda** * **18:30 - 18:40** Welcome from the hosts * **18:45 - 19:15** **I apologise for the confusion!

Anyway, here's the same plausible but wrong software again** * **Speaker**: **[Matīss Treinis](https://www.linkedin.com/in/matisst/)** \- Creator and Author\, [SpecDD](https://specdd.ai/) * **Duration**: 30-45 mins * **Abstract**: Introduction to SpecDD, a Specification-driven development framework that enables humans and AI agents to build better software. * **About**: I have spent most of my life building things. Close to twenty years of production platforms, infrastructure, distributed systems, developer tooling, and the organisational structures around them. My background is in software engineering and architecture, but most of my work has lived where product requirements, developer tooling, infrastructure, delivery process, and team structure all meet. I build the systems around the software as much as the software itself. I have run full technology functions end-to-end: development, architecture, DevOps, delivery, hiring, vendor strategy, and operational structure. A lot of my career has been spent taking environments that are unstable, fragmented, or afraid to ship, and turning them into organisations that can move quickly without collapsing under their own weight. I still work hands-on every day. I write code, work in infrastructure, and stay close to the actual problems instead of managing them from a distance. *** * **Title: DevOps Horror Stories Vol. 1** * **Speaker**: **[Vicent Soria](https://www.linkedin.com/in/vicentsoria/)** \- Fractional Infrastructure Engineer @ [techabreath.com](https://techabreath.com/) * **Duration**: 30-45 mins * **About**: I work with management and technical teams to connect strategy with execution. My goal is to transform technology from an obstacle into a business driver. I act as a fractional CTO, DevOps engineer, or technology consultant, depending on each client's needs at any given time.

We will have two talks: one about **Feedback for programming learners** and another one about a **Python-powered security lab**. \-\-\- Schedule: * 18:00: Welcome * ️ 18:15: Talks * **&** 20:00: Networking! * 20:45: Bye! \-\-\- * ➡️ **What: Feedback immediat per estudiants de programació: Powered by Python** * **Who**: Moisès Gómez Girón * ⏱ **Duration**: 45 minutes * **Language**: Catalan * **Abstract**: Presentació d’una eina per a l’ensenyament de la programació, creada per minimitzar el temps entre la resolució de l’exercici i la recepció de la retroacció. L’eina ha estat desenvolupada al llarg dels anys en paral·lel al seu ús a l’aula, sota pressió per terminis ajustats, canvis de temari i estudiants amb imaginació per trobar maneres enginyoses d’enganyar el sistema. El resultat és una història de compromisos i solucions creatives, des de prohibir funcionalitats concretes del llenguatge fins a l’ús exclusiu de tecnologies gratuïtes. \-\-\-\- * ➡️ **What: Python-powered Cybersecurity Lab: Caldera, Elastic Stack & ATT&CK simluation** * **Who**: Mauricio Volcanes * ⏱ **Duration**: 45 minutes * **Language**: Spanish * **Abstract**: En esta charla mostraremos un laboratorio completo de ciberseguridad compuesto por máquinas virtuales, Elastic Stack y el framework MITRE Caldera (Python). A través de una demostración guiada, analizaremos cómo simular técnicas del framework MITRE ATT&CK y cómo correlacionarlas en tiempo real con logs de sistemas Linux para detectar comportamiento malicioso. \-\-\-\- ➡️ Location: Cibernàrium 22@ - Barcelona Activa.

**🔎The session:** AI is already part of how we work, but most people are still using it as a chat or an autocomplete tool. The next step is moving from asking for help to letting AI actually do parts of the work for you. **That is where agents come in**. In this session, we explore **how to build and use AI agents in a practical way using tools like GitHub Copilot, Agent Mode, MCP, and reusable skills**. The focus is not on complex architectures, but on what is useful in real day-to-day work. We walk you through **what an AI agent is** and why it makes sense to use one instead of just prompts or simple automations. You will see how agents can reason, plan, and execute tasks across multiple steps, and how to apply patterns that already work in production. We also look at **how this fits into your existing workflow**, especially in environments like VS Code, and **how agents can connect to real systems and data**. Real examples will show how to automate documentation, interact with data platforms such as Microsoft Fabric, and create reusable workflows that save time. The session also **covers common mistakes**, including overcomplicating solutions with too many agents, and how to keep things simple, controlled, and maintainable. 🎯**The goal is to give you a clear and practical understanding so you can start using agents in your own work without overengineering.** 👩‍💻**This session is for you if:** * you are a developer working with code on a daily basis * you use tools like VS Code, GitHub, or similar environments * you are an engineer interested in improving productivity using AI beyond autocomplete * you want to explore how to integrate AI agents into real workflows -No prior experience with AI agents is required -Basic understanding of development workflows is enough 📋**Agenda** 🙋18:00 Registration & Welcome **🗣️18:30** Session and Q&A 🌮19:30 Drinks & Bites We look forward to this inspiring evening together! 🤩

Columbus Code & Coffee is an inclusive, informal co-working session. People of all skill levels attend, and we love it that way. Many people (optionally) bring projects to work on, and many other people (optionally) socialize the entire time. It's entirely up to you! **What to Expect at the Intro Circle** \~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~ Near the beginning of the event (1:30 pm), we do a standup: * Organizer announcements, updates, and logistics Round 1 - (7 secs max): * Your name * What you're working on * What you can help others with Round 2: * Community events you wanna plug. If none, that's cool too. Round 3: * Job opportunities you're hiring for OR announce that you are looking for one. If none, that's cool. After the introduction circle, everything is self-organized! Feel free to work alone, pair up, attend one of our workshops/presentations, or mingle!

Let's get together and listen to **[Eric Rico](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ericrico/)** from Unity3D (**From Joints to Gestures: Reading Hands in Unity**). A hand tracker gives you joints, not a gesture. This talk shows how you get from raw joints to a "thumbs-up" in Unity: the pipeline that cleans up the data, how a gesture becomes a few 0-to-1 values within tolerance, and why orientation matters as much as finger shape. Includes a live demo of tuning gesture thresholds. Eric also runs the **[Columbus Unity User Group](https://www.meetup.com/columbus-unity-user-group/)**. Check it out! ***Bring your laptop and expect to write some (non-AI-generated) code!*** Food and drinks will be available. **LOCATION:** 6515 Longshore Loop, Suite 300, Dublin, OH 43017 **FREE PARKING:** 6725 Longshore Street, Dublin, OH 43017

Most people use LLMs by feel: ask a question, read the answer, decide whether it “seems good,” and move on. That works for casual use. It does not work when you are building software, automating workflows, writing important documents, or relying on AI for anything that needs to be repeatable. In this talk, we’ll look at how to improve and evaluate the inputs and outputs of LLMs using practical measurement techniques. We’ll cover how prompt changes affect results, how to compare outputs, how to build simple evaluation sets, and how math-based methods like similarity scoring can help you move beyond guesswork. This will be beginner-friendly, so even if you don't know anything about AI, you should get something out of it. However, this will be a little more technical than our intro talks. You do not need to be an AI researcher, but programmers and technically curious attendees will get a lot out of it. We’ll cover: * Why “it looks good” is not enough * How to improve prompts by changing the input, context, and constraints * How to compare LLM outputs more systematically * Basic evaluation techniques for accuracy, consistency, and usefulness * How embeddings, cosine similarity, and scoring can help evaluate results * Where automated evaluation works — and where humans still need to stay in the loop By the end, you’ll have a practical mental model for treating LLMs less like magic and more like systems you can test, measure, and improve. LOGISTICS AND PARKING: The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks! The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.
