**🌌 Barcelona Space Friends** is a **free** monthly meetup uniting **space enthusiasts and professionals,** who share a fascination with the **space** and **exploration**. Hosted at the energetic **Brewdog Barcelona** 🍻, this gathering creates a laid-back atmosphere space Friends to connect and share their passion for the space. No formal lectures, no structured activities—just talk while we drink. The event is **completely free**, welcoming anyone eager to grow their space-loving community.

No slides. No speaker. No agenda. Just developers talking shop over a cold one. This is an informal gathering for engineers, founders, and builders who are deep in the agentic coding trenches — using tools like Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Code, OpenCode, or rolling their own agent pipelines. Come swap what's actually working, what blew up in production, and what you're excited about right now. We'll be at a bar in Gràcia, Barcelona, and the format is simple: show up, grab a drink, and share what you know. Bring a laptop if you want to show something, but it's not required. **What we talk about (but not limited to):** * Agentic coding workflows and tooling * Prompt engineering & context engineering in practice * Multi-agent architectures and orchestration * AI-native product building * What's broken in the ecosystem and how you're working around it **Who should come:** Developers, technical founders, and AI engineers who build with (or on top of) LLMs. All levels welcome — senior devs with war stories and curious beginners both make the conversation better. **Format:** Open conversation, round-table style. Everyone teaches, everyone learns.

La ERNI Academy está de vuelta con un evento híbrido y transversal que nos afecta a todos: **Qué se hace con los datos que compartimos en nuestras Webs y Aplicaciones.** En esta mesa redonda, moderada por David Carmona, exploraremos cómo la IA está redefiniendo el uso de los datos, sus riesgos y cómo protegerlos. **¿Qué valor real aportan tus datos en el contexto actual de la IA? ¿Se están utilizando de forma responsable?** Los datos se han consolidado como uno de los activos más valiosos en cualquier organización, impulsados por nuevas capacidades tecnológicas y por el avance de la #IA.

In this talk I share what I've learned from 6 months using Claude Code in real projects: the failure modes nobody talks about (context collapse, token-burning spirals, silent over-reliance), my actual setup and CLAUDE.md, and the principles I now live by. *Benjamin Tarenne, Senior Full Stack Software Engineer building products for Allianz and Claude Code Barcelona community co-organizer.* **AI Mythbusters: Debunking LinkedIn BS** From "AI is going to replace all devs", "AI already thinks" and "AI learns from your chats", to "with a RAG, AI will never hallucinate again" or "APIs are dead, long live MCPs", in this talk we'll do something highly disruptive in the tech industry: revisit some AI basic concepts. We'll go through some of the most persistent myths about artificial intelligence with no doomsaying, no hype, a hint of embarrassment in some cases, and something very old school but effective: evidence. Warning - You might leave with fewer certainties than you came in with. That's exactly the point. *Maite Malavia, Solutions Architect & AI Consultant partner at Zenital and Claude Code Barcelona community co-organizer.* *** **What to expect** This community is being built around solid engineering practices, not vibe coding. We want to explore what it really means to do agentic coding well, and how Claude Code fits into a professional engineering workflow. We have prepared some content around the basics of agentic coding and AI to get the conversation started, but we'd love to hear from you too! 👉 **Interested in presenting something?** If you have a topic, use case, or experience related to Claude Code and engineering practices, we'd love to have you on stage.

**🎟 Get your tickets: [https://bit.ly/3PBQC85](https://bit.ly/3PBQC85)** **Overview** Product Building Series #2: A 2-Hr workshop to define the right scope for your product before building too many features + Networking **Description** Many digital products start with a clear idea. But as development begins, something quickly happens: More and more features appear. New ideas are added, requests accumulate, and the product grows in multiple directions. Before long, the product becomes harder to build, harder to understand, and harder for users to adopt. One of the most common challenges for founders and builders is deciding: **What should our product actually include?** In this practical workshop, we will explore how to define the right scope for your product and avoid the trap of building too much too early. You will learn a simple way to identify the core capabilities your product needs and distinguish them from secondary features. **What You’ll Learn** This workshop is part of the Product Building Series. Together, the three workshops provide a complete path from idea → product scope → product structure, helping you move from concept to a clear and scalable product. In this workshop we will explore: • Why many products become overloaded with features • The difference between features and product capabilities • How to identify the core capabilities of your product • How to reduce complexity and focus on what truly matters. Through practical examples, you will see how successful digital products focus on a small number of clear capabilities rather than trying to do everything at once. **What You’ll Leave With** Participants will leave with a Product Scope Canvas for their idea or product. By the end of the workshop you will have: ✔ A clearer definition of your product’s core capabilities ✔ A better understanding of which features are essential vs optional ✔ A structured Product Scope Canvas you can use to refine your product roadmap ✔ A practical framework to avoid feature overload as your product grows. **Who This Workshop Is For** This workshop is ideal for: • founders and startup builders • people working on a new app or SaaS idea • indie hackers and makers • early product teams defining what to build. No technical background is required. **Workshop Agenda (2 hours)** 1.Welcome & Introduction *Why defining product scope is one of the hardest parts of building digital products.* 2.Why Products Become Feature-Heavy *Common mistakes when defining product functionality.* 3.Features vs Capabilities *Understanding the difference and why it matters.* 4.Real Product Example *How successful products define a small set of core capabilities.* 5.Practical Exercise *Define the core capabilities of your own product using the Product Scope Canvas.* 6.Discussion & Insights *Participants share their discoveries and refine their product scope.* 7.Wrap-Up & Next Steps **What to Bring** Bring a product idea, app idea, or feature you are planning to build. You will work directly on it during the workshop. We kindly ask participants to arrive about 10 minutes earlier, as the workshop will start promptly at 18:30. **Format** - Interactive workshop - Small group discussion - Practical exercise After the workshop, participants are invited to continue the conversation during an informal **networking session** at Sisi Bar on the top floor, where we can share experiences and enjoy the beautiful views of Barcelona together. 🎟 **Get your tickets**: [https://bit.ly/3PBQC85](https://bit.ly/3PBQC85)

**What if the most useful tools for navigating our future world aren't from business schools or consultancies, but drawn from quantum physics, metaphysics and extra-dimensional sources?** **[Tickets must be purchased in advance via LUMA - from 9 Euros.](https://luma.com/dplywd1n?utm-source-meetup)** There’s no doubt that we are living through a period of profound disruption to humanity. From rapidly changing geopolitics to AI, we can often find ourselves confused or concerned with the implications and our own survival. With so much uncertainty and change, how do we stay grounded to make decisions that move us toward better outcomes? In this Growth Lab LIVE session, designer, futurist and author, Phil Balagtas explores how engaging with these questions can expand our thinking and unlock an alternate ambitious and optimistic approach for how to think about the future. Advancing research on consciousness, quantum physics and non-human intelligence have quietly influenced how scientists, researchers, technologists and futurists are thinking about and understanding the world around us. They’re shaping the newest technologies on the horizon and awakening us to possibilities that are beyond anything we can imagine. In this session, we’ll draw on these theories to provide new inspiration for ways to navigate uncertainty and the rapidly changing reality we are witnessing. Ultimately, we’ll offer a new perspective that can help us imagine and work toward more preferable futures for our businesses, communities and ourselves. We'll explore: •⁠ ⁠What are some basic foundations about quantum physics and how its being used today to advance computing •⁠ ⁠How consciousness and our perceptions of reality can be shifted based on quantum principles •⁠ ⁠The strange and beautiful phenomena that is being documented and disclosed that could potentially shape a future where humans are not the most intelligent species on the planet **About the speaker:** Phil is a designer, strategist and futurist based in Barcelona. He has over 25 years of experience designing digital products, services and strategies for a variety of devices and platforms. Within the last decade he has served as a Design Director for General Electric’s Digital Aviation group and for McKinsey & Company. Today he is a professor at Elisava University and leads his own consultancy called HABITAT training organizations on Futures Thinking. He has just published a book on O’Reilly called, Making Futures Work: Integrating Futures Thinking for Design, Innovation and Strategy.

El "Taller de agentes IA con AI Studio y Gemma 4", será realizado por el Google Developer Expert Víctor Sanchez (lead organizer del GDG Mallorca) y por Andreu Ibáñez (lead organizer GDG Spain y GDG Lleida), y consistirá en la formación con los sistemas agénticos más modernos que se encuentren disponibles en el momento, ya que esto es una locura y todo evoluciona muy rápido. Previo al taller Andreu nos introducirá brevemente al mundo de los agentes, y su evolución en los últimos meses, para después pasar a la parte práctica de la mano de Víctor. Durante el taller haremos redeem de códigos gratuitos entregados por Google Cloud/Google Developers, para montar una VPS (servidor remoto privado y virtual) donde instalaremos un sistema dockerizado y un agente Hermes, que está comiendo el paso a OpenClaw, y que seguro en breve tendrá competencia. Este agente de IA estará conectado al último modelo de Gemma 4 disponible, lo que nos permite ejecutar instancias locales según el hardware de que dispongamos. La instalación se realiza con Docker, consiguientemente cualquier entorno o tipo de sistema operativo sirve (Windows, Linux, Mac). Y no te preocupes si nunca lo has usado, Víctor te enseñará :) Los asistentes deberán traer su laptop bien cargado y tener conectividad propia vía su propio móvil haciendo de hotspot, ya que no podemos garantizar el caudal para todo el mundo vía wifi. El taller en resumen enseñará a los asistentes a crear la VPS en Google Cloud, instalar el agente Hermes dockerizado y hacer pruebas con un modelo open source Gemma 4. La aplicación de este sistema ya dependerá de cada cual, ya que al ser Gemma 4 multimodal, las aplicaciones son infinitas. De su web: Gemma 4 introduces key capabilities and architectural advancements: Reasoning – All models in the family are designed as highly capable reasoners, with configurable thinking modes. Extended Multimodalities – Processes Text, Image with variable aspect ratio and resolution support (all models), Video, and Audio (featured natively on the E2B and E4B models). Diverse & Efficient Architectures – Offers Dense and Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) variants of different sizes for scalable deployment. Optimized for On-Device – Smaller models are specifically designed for efficient local execution on laptops and mobile devices. Increased Context Window – The small models feature a 128K context window, while the medium models support 256K. Enhanced Coding & Agentic Capabilities – Achieves notable improvements in coding benchmarks alongside native function-calling support, powering highly capable autonomous agents. Native System Prompt Support – Gemma 4 introduces native support for the system role, enabling more structured and controllable conversations. Aunque el taller es gratis, el local exige un consumo mínimo por persona de una pizza y una bebida, aprox 14 €.
