**Are you ready for the Milano–Cortina Winter Olympics? We’re not.** **That’s why we’ve created our very own Ostello Bello "Olympic" Games: a glorious display of questionable athletic skills and high-level nonsense.** While the "other" guys are busy with the official **Milano-Cortina 2026** ceremonies, we’re bringing the real "action" to the streets of Milan. From February 6th, we aren't gathering to break world records; we’re gathering to break the laws of physics. This isn’t about the podium; it’s about the survival of the chillest. Get your "winter" gear ready, because we’re about to prove that being an elite athlete is 10% talent and 90% just showing up for the vibes. **The Incentive:** Every participant gets a **shot**. The "legends" who actually win take home an **Ostello Bello T-shirt or a Drink**. ## The Disciplines: Official "Technical" Standards Every day from **7 PM to 9 PM**, our "athletes" will face a rotating schedule of these elite winter disciplines: ### 1\. Air Hockey: The Wrist\-Flick Battle A high-speed duel where the only thing frozen is your gaze on the puck. * **The Goal:** Smash the plastic disc into the hole. * **Requirement:** Move your hand faster than your brain can process and celebrate every point like you’ve just secured a gold medal. ### 2\. Boxing\-Glove Beer Pong: The Clumsy Champion Challenge We took a classic and made it impossible by adding the "Yeti factor." * **The Twist:** You have to play wearing massive, padded boxing gloves. * **The Challenge:** Gripping a tiny ball with giant hands is the ultimate test of patience. Success here is statistically unlikely and basically a miracle. ### 3\. DIY Curling: The Professional Slide The most serious-looking sport in our program. We’ve replaced expensive stones with pots and ice with felt pads, but the tension is real. * **The Setup:** A "House" (target) taped on the floor and a "Hog Line" for the release. * **The Action:** Launch the pot while your teammates run alongside it with brooms, screaming *"Hurry! Hard!"* just like in the real tournaments. * **The Score:** Closest pot to the center wins. Clean floors are a bonus. ### BONUS DAY: The "Wildcard" Game The discipline is a mystery. Our local legends will choose the challenge. Expect the unexpected: and probably more shots. **AND REPEAT.**

**(7:00 PM)** 🔹**Please fill in your details to confirm your attendance.** https://forms.gle/GmCTgY1SDqeHS6cG9 **Talk: The power of color in personal branding** How to build a memorable color identity Color is not an aesthetic choice. It's a strategic lever. Too often, a brand or personal brand is built following simplistic, outdated rules: "blue conveys trust," "red means energy," "green feels natural." The truth? It doesn't work that way. In this talk, we'll move beyond color psychology clichés to explore a deeper, more scientific and truly personal approach. According to neuroscience, color perception isn't universal: it's tied to each person's experiences, memories and emotions. This is exactly where the difference lies between a brand that follows conventions and a brand that gets recognized, remembered and chosen. What will you take away? ● A fresh perspective on the strategic role of color in your personal brand ● A method to build an authentic palette that reflects who you are and what you want to communicate ● The tools to set yourself apart from competitors relying on standard solutions ● Hands-on examples, perception tests and real rebranding case studies we'll analyze together All without ever losing sight of what truly matters: readability, accessibility and functionality. Because a brand that works isn't just beautiful. It's effective. **About the speaker** **Gabriele Lakhal** Gabriele Lakhal is a Design Strategist for freelancers and SMEs. He helps professionals and businesses who fear becoming invisible in an increasingly competitive market stand out with authority and win clients. His approach combines brand strategy, user-centered design, color psychology and funnel marketing to achieve tangible business results. ***📍 Join Our Community*** 📱 WhatsApp: [https://chat.whatsapp.com/LptflUCjNOk8BsU43ZE8HG](https://chat.whatsapp.com/LptflUCjNOk8BsU43ZE8HG) 💼 LinkedIn: [Digital Marketing Group Lisbon](https://www.linkedin.com/groups/9249844/) ✈️ Telegram: [https://t.me/+YrJYhbXrDDYwYjg0](https://t.me/+YrJYhbXrDDYwYjg0) 🎟️ Register: [https://dmktribe.com/register/](https://dmktribe.com/register/) **🌍 About DMK Tribe** **DMK Tribe** is an international community of marketers, creatives, entrepreneurs, and curious minds who believe in the power of genuine human connection.

**Hello PyData People!** We are excited to announce our **second event of 2026**! This time, we will be hosted at **iliad Italia**'s headquarters in Milan for an evening dedicated to AI at scale—ranging from Foundation Models for credit risk to sovereign and open-source data architectures. 📅 **When:** Wednesday, February 18, 2026 📍 **Where:** iliad Italia, Viale Francesco Restelli, 1A, 20124 · Milano **⚠️ Important:** Spots are limited. Please keep your RSVP updated to allow others to participate if you can no longer attend. *** ## 🕒 Agenda * **18:30:** 🚪 Doors open & Check-in * **19:00:** 🎤 **Talk 1:** Open Source & Sovereign Architecture – Riccardo Lorenzon * **19:45:** 🎤 **Talk 2:** Klarna’s Foundation Model – Valeria Verzi, Sudhakar Periyasamy, Goran Dizdarevic * **20:30:** 🍕 **Networking & Aperitivo** offered by Iliad! *** ## 🎤 The Talks ## 1️⃣An Open Source and Sovereign Architecture for Data, ML and AI **Speaker:** Riccardo Lorenzon (Head of Data @ iliad Italia) Iliad Group invests billions in sovereign AI ecosystems, open-source tech, and low-carbon data centers to reduce reliance on non-European providers and bolster Europe's technological autonomy. True to Iliad Group's 'make-over-buy' culture of full control, iliad Italia is building a data architecture in a hybrid on-prem and Scaleway (Iliad Group cloud) setup, combining open-source tech and managed services. This powers data management, self-service analytics, and ML/AI use cases for our 12m+ user base and 1000+ employees. During this speech, we will guide you through the tech journeys we have built and are building. **About the Speaker:** Riccardo Lorenzon serves as Head of Data at iliad Italia, where he works on evolving the data function into a modern setup covering the full data value chain from sources to business decisions. He previously led data teams at Vedrai, an AI startup, and Whirlpool EMEA, handling projects in analytics, machine learning, and cloud platforms across areas like consumer service, supply chain, and sales. With a Master’s in Mathematical Engineering from Politecnico di Milano and studies at ETH Zürich, he combines a hands-on approach to delivery with a strong focus on strategic value for the business. *** ## 2️⃣ Building the Klarna Foundation Model: A Unified Transformer for Customer Behavior Modeling at Scale **Speaker:** Valeria Verzi (Principal Data Scientist @ Klarna), Sudhakar Periyasamy, Goran Dizdarevic In this session, we introduce Klarna’s Foundation Model (KFM): a lightweight Transformer trained on more than 130 million customer events to learn a unified representation of customer behavior. Rather than building separate, task-specific models, KFM operates as a common sequence-modeling backbone that encodes behavioral patterns across different touchpoints of a customer’s interaction history with Klarna. We will walk through the technical design of the system, including event tokenization, sequence construction, and Transformer architecture, as well as how the learned embeddings are exposed as a shared layer for multiple downstream use cases. Attendees will gain a concrete understanding of how foundation models can be applied to behavioral sequence data in fintech, and how a single model can serve as a reusable, extensible representation layer across heterogeneous modeling tasks. **About the Speaker:** Valeria Verzi is a Principal AI Scientist at Klarna, where she leads the development of next-generation models, from foundation models to advanced deep learning or agentic systems. She has nearly a decade of experience applying machine learning to high-stakes decisioning across fintech and insurance. Before her current role, Valeria served as Klarna’s Head of Data Science for Fraud Prevention. Prior to Klarna, she held senior data science roles at Generali and NTT Data. Valeria holds a Master’s degree in Computer Science Engineering from Politecnico di Milano. *** See you there! 🚀 *The PyData Milano Team*

Costruire sistemi moderni non significa solo scegliere le tecnologie giuste, ma avere il coraggio di ripensare architetture, processi e persino il nostro modo di lavorare. In questo quinto meetup dell’AWS Well-Architected User Group Italy esploreremo **due storie** molto diverse, ma unite da un filo comune: la **trasformazione**. Da un lato, l’evoluzione di un sistema complesso e maturo verso un’**architettura event-driven** capace di alimentare un social feed in tempo reale; dall’altro, sei mesi di sviluppo immersivo che raccontano come nuove **tecnologie possano cambiare** non solo il codice, ma anche **le persone** che lo scrivono. Al termine dei talk, **networking e aperitivo 🍕 offerto dallo User Group.** **TheFork Feed: costruire un social engine** Giovanni Laganà \- Fullstack Software Engineer II @ TheFork \| Author @ thelinkedinengineer\.com Ogni social network possiede un Feed, ma implementarne uno ‘from scratch’ su un’architettura matura con 20 anni di storico dati è una sfida ingegneristica complessa. Come si aggregano efficientemente attività distribuite su domini di business separati, gestendo al contempo il flusso di dati in tempo reale? In questo talk, Giovanni Laganà — Software Engineer in TheFork — analizzerà le decisioni architetturali critiche dietro il ‘TheFork Feed’ lanciato a luglio 2025. Esploreremo il passaggio da logiche sincrone a pattern Event-Driven e le strategie adottate per garantire performance e coerenza in un ecosistema a microservizi. **Sei mesi di sviluppo immersivo con Kiro : Coraggio, tecnologia e umanità** Massimo De Giorgio - Innovation Analyst @ Tabata Massimo De Giorgio e il suo team vivono da sei mesi un’esperienza completamente immersiva nello sviluppo con Kiro. In questo speech, Massimo condividerà il proprio percorso attraverso le diverse prospettive di imprenditore, project manager e sviluppatore, offrendo una visione concreta e multidimensionale dell’adozione di questa tecnologia. Sarà un’occasione per raccontare non solo i risultati nei processi di coding, ma anche la passione, le emozioni e i timori che accompagnano quello che Werner Vogels definisce un nuovo “Rinascimento”: una trasformazione tecnologica e umana che interpella chi ha avuto il coraggio di intraprendere un profondo cambiamento professionale e personale. **📍 Location** **TheFork – Palazzo dell’Informazione** Piazza Cavour, 5° piano – **Milano** **Da ricordare:** * 🎫 Porta la tua cartolina raccogli punti per il timbro! (Se non ce l'hai ancora, te ne diamo una nuova) * ✅ Registrazione obbligatoria (posti limitati) Ci vediamo in TheFork! 👋

Come possiamo trasformare i contenuti di un sito WordPress in una strategia social automatizzata ma sicura? In questo incontro esploreremo il caso di studio "Itpoetry", dove un workflow orchestrato su n8n utilizza agenti AI e database vettoriali (Qdrant) per generare post Instagram. Vedremo come implementare un sistema RAG per evitare le "allucinazioni" dell'AI, garantendo che i post siano sempre basati su fonti verificate, e come integrare un passaggio di approvazione umana (Human-in-the-Loop) prima della pubblicazione definitiva. **Agenda** * **18:15** \- Presentazione del Pisa WordPress Meetup \(chi siamo\, cosa facciamo\) * **18:45** \- Presentazione del talk: "Automazione avanzata: Da WordPress ai social con n8n e agenti AI" * **19:15** \- Osservazioni conclusive * **19:30** \- Domande e risposte * **19:45** \- Proposte per i prossimi meetup * **20:15** \- After Meetup: socializzazione in un ristorante/pizzeria nelle vicinanze **After Meetup** Al termine dell'evento, ci sposteremo presso un ristorante/pizzeria della zona per continuare le discussioni e il networking in un ambiente informale.
