**EL COACH**
Desde mi descubrimiento por el básquet, con tan solo 15 años ya estaba al frente de un equipo de iniciación y colaboraba organizativamente de forma solidaria en todos los torneos y competiciones anuales del club.
Mi pasión por el básquet no se detuvo aquí, así que después de 8 años como jugador federado, quise ver el básquet desde otro prisma. Este, me llevo a trabajar de forma autónoma como arbitro en la Federación Catalana por mas de 4 años sobre las distintas regiones de Catalunya.
Ahora, como profesional de la salud y el deporte con mas de 13 años de experiencia en el sector y tras mi regreso a Barcelona después de estudiar un postgrado de entrenamiento de alto rendimiento, crear esta escuela de básquet junto Alexis, es uno de los proyectos mas emocionante que he tengo en mi ciudad natal.

**🎙️Talks**
**From Chaos to Marketplace: A Practical Guide to Sharing AI Agent Best Practices at Scale (In English)**
AI coding agents are transforming how we build software, but getting your whole engineering organization to benefit from them is harder than it looks. At Kovant, we learned this the hard way, going through four stages of trial and error before landing on something that actually works at scale. In this talk, Kovant's CTO will share the honest story behind that journey and reveal the approach that finally made it click for our teams.
*By Dror Asaf, CTO and Co-founder*
**Claude in Red Team and Blue Team Mode: From Breaking Things to Putting Out Fires (In Spanish)**
A practical talk on how to use Claude for reconnaissance and early phases of pentesting (red team), as well as a technical aid for incident analysis (blue team).
This talk explores what it truly means to be a hacker, separating myths from reality, and dives into a hands-on lab using Claude Code, covering setup, context, and operational rules. We introduce MCP as the interface that enables models to interact with tools, and walk through real testing targets and methodologies. Through practical exercises, we demonstrate how to identify web vulnerabilities, interpret Nmap outputs to prioritize risks and define next steps, and finally how Claude Code can also support defensive strategies, showing its value for both red and blue team scenarios.

**🎙️ Charlas**
**Del Caos al Marketplace: Una guía práctica para compartir agentes IA con buenas prácticas de escalado (en Inglés)**
Los agentes de programación con IA están transformando la forma en que desarrollamos software, pero lograr que toda tu organización de ingeniería se beneficie de ellos es más difícil de lo que parece. En Kovant, lo aprendimos por las malas, pasando por cuatro etapas de prueba y error antes de dar con algo que realmente funciona a escala.
En esta charla, el CTO de Kovant compartirá la historia sincera detrás de ese recorrido y revelará el enfoque que finalmente hizo que funcionara para nuestros equipos.
*Por Dror Asaf, CTO and Co-founder*
**Claude en modo red team y blue team: de repartir leña a sacar el extintor (en Español)**
Una charla práctica sobre cómo usar Claude en tareas de reconocimiento y fases iniciales de un pentesting (red team), y también como apoyo técnico para analizar incidentes (blue team).
Esta charla explora qué significa realmente ser hacker, desmontando mitos y conceptos erróneos, y se adentra en un laboratorio práctico con Claude Code, cubriendo su configuración, el contexto y las reglas de uso. Se introduce MCP como el mecanismo que permite a los modelos interactuar con herramientas, y se recorren distintos objetivos y metodologías de testing. A través de ejercicios prácticos, se muestra cómo detectar vulnerabilidades en una web, interpretar resultados de Nmap para priorizar riesgos y definir siguientes pasos, y finalmente cómo Claude Code también puede apoyar al blue team, demostrando su valor tanto en escenarios ofensivos como defensivos.

BUITREMAN, EL PASTOR DELS VOLTORS…
**Continuem amb un maig BESTIAL!** I us hem preparat una escapada molt especial, al **Matarranya, a la província de Teruel**, per gaudir d’un **espectacle únic al món**, per conèixer un projecte espectacular. Si, visitarem el **Mas de Bunyol, un observatori de voltors**, i coneixerem els seus habitants i al precursor del projecte, en **Buitreman** *(tal com el van batejar al National Geographic)*.
Però això només és una de les activitats que realitzarem, vols saber més? *Doncs vinga, al lio!*
**Programa**
***Dia 23 Maig***
✔ Sortida a les 09:00 en direcció **Monroyo** a la comarca del Matarranya.
✔ Arribada a l’[Hotel Posada Guadalupe](https://posadalupe.com/) a Monroyo, checking i dinar.
En plena província de Teruel es troba el municipi de Monroyo, en plena comarca del Matarranya. **Un lloc amb una màgia especial on es barregen història, gastronomia i naturalesa.**
Situat a 857 metres d’altitud, destaca pel seu traçat medieval de carrers empedrats i cases de pedra amb balcons tradicionals.
✔ Dinar a l’Hotel
✔ Després de dinar, posem camí fins a **Valderrobres**
En creuar el ‘pont de pedra’ i travessar la muralla pel portal de Sant Roque entraràs, sens dubte, en **un dels pobles més bonics d’Aragó i d’Europa**.
Declarat **Conjunt Històric**, als seus carrers medievals, plens de bells racons, destaquen monuments com l’església de Santa María, un dels màxims exponents de l’arquitectura gòtica a Aragó, el castell – palau de Valderrobres, també gòtic, i l’ajuntament, excel·lent exemple de palau renaixentista aragonès.
**Gaudirem d’una visita guiada amb guies locals, del centre històric i també del Castell de Valderrobres.**
✔ Tornada a l’Hotel i sopar (amb petita sorpresa i un sopar especial…)
Diuen que Sota el cel de Teruel cada estrella explica una història.
La província es troba en una zona amb baixa contaminació lumínica, la qual cosa la converteix en un destí ideal per als amants de les estrelles. Diverses comarques d’aquesta zona han obtingut els certificats de **DESTÍ TURISTIC STARLIGHT i de RESERVA STARLIGHT** per la qualitat dels seus cels lliures de contaminació lumínica.
Així que aprofitarem que estem aquí per sortir a fer una passejada o sortir al jardi de l’Hotel per gaudir d’aquest espectacle, si les condicions de la nit ens ho permeten.
***Dia 24 Maig***
✔ Esmorzar i ens anem a veure la joia del viatge, l’Observatori d’aus de **Mas de Bunyol**, seu d’en **“Buitreman”**
**L’«Home Voltor» o «Buitreman»** és el sobrenom amb què es coneix **José Ramón Moragrega**
Per a poder veure als voltors de prop, José Ramón va començar deixant alguns conills morts per a veure si els rapinyaires venien a menjar-se’ls. Al principi ni els tocaven, ja que els voltors tenen una por ancestral als humans, que els persegueixen des de l’antiguitat.
Van passar uns tres anys fins a aconseguir que els primers exemplars comencessin a menjar el que *«buitreman»* els tirava.
**Des de fa gairebé 35 anys**, cada matí «buitreman» repeteix el ritual de donar menjar als voltors. Un espectacle que cal veure-ho. **Veure més de 250 voltors si mai has vist cap de prop ja és tot un espectacle únic.**
En tot cas, **el que es fa en l’Observatori d’ocells Mes de Bunyol suposa una de les experiències més autèntiques i espectaculars que es poden viure a Europa en contacte directe amb la naturalesa i els animals salvatges.**
✔ Dinar a l’Hotel
✔ Tornada a casa després d’un cap de setmana molt ben aprofitat i submergint-nos a la natura més salvatge del Matarranya. Esperem que amb una experiència única més a la butxaca, amb moments divertits i les piles carregades!

Connecting the World: Scalable Geospatial Pipelines with GigaSpatial
Speaker: Utku Can Ozturk, Data Scientist and main developer of the Gigaspatial project
Geospatial data is critical for global development, but practitioners constantly battle fragmented data, scaling issues, and complex integrations across vector and raster formats. Enter GigaSpatial, an open-source Python library built by UNICEF’s Giga initiative to help connect every school in the world to the internet.
In this talk, we will explore the architecture behind GigaSpatial and how it replaces the need to stitch together a dozen different tools to answer a single spatial question. We will dive into how the library orchestrates data collection, transformation, and standardisation pipelines at scale. By leveraging strict configuration validation, object-oriented data connectors, and seamless multi-store management, GigaSpatial provides a unified API to wrangle spatial data. Finally, we’ll look at real-world applications across 30 countries, from validating point-of-interest data against multiple global building footprints to running zonal aggregations using different grid systems.
Whether you are a data engineer, a GIS professional, or a Python developer interested in open-source architecture, you might find this talk an interesting look into how we build robust spatial pipelines; and we would love to explore ways you can contribute to this global mission.
📅 **Date:** 21 May
⏰ **Start time:** 19:00 h

**\*\*\* We've Moved! Bold Penguin - 6555 Longshore St, Dublin, OH 43017 \*\*\***
Talk by
Todd Nussbaum
LGTM is not a Strategy
Pull requests are where quality is won or lost, and too many teams still treat reviews with a rushed "LGTM". In this talk, you'll learn a practical, repeatable approach to high-quality PR reviews that balances speed with risk management - covering how to triage changes quickly, review in layers, and write comments that lead to better outcomes without friction. We'll also show how QA and developers bring complementary lenses to the same review, turning acceptance criteria, scenarios, and observability into shared responsibility instead of production surprises. You'll leave with a lightweight framework and concrete habits for authors and reviewers that make reviews faster, kinder, and more effective.
**AGENDA:**
* See updates to parking below
* Doors open at 5:30, feel free to come and hang out before!

Building Scalable Customer Identity Resolution Pipelines on AWS Using AI
Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs.
This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context.
We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing.
