Wie reist du? Join us for our next German Sprachcafe as we cover the topic of Reuse (travel). Our event begins with a brief moderation at 19:00 where the host will introduce the topic, explain the conversation guidelines, and create groups of different German ability. In your group you will converse with a native German speaker on the topic of Reise. What are the best/worst parts of travel? What is your preferred mode of travel? Where is your next travel destination? These topic and more will be discussed with the participants in each group. So practice your German, whatever your level. Make mistakes, have fun, and improve in your language ability. Light snacks and drinks will be served to people in attendance. This event is free of charge! Our event officially ends at 20:30.

**The AWS Women’s User Group Berlin** is thrilled to invite you to our upcoming meetup sponsored by Storm Reply focused on **Building production-ready AI agents for real-world impact.** Join us for a deep dive into how to build, observe, and evaluate AI agents at scale. You’ll also see how these ideas come to life in a real-world climate-smart agriculture solution that turns weather forecasts into actionable field guidance. Whether you’re building agentic systems today or planning what comes next, this meetup will give you practical insights into making AI agents work in production. **Speaker Info** **Keynote Talk** **Speaker:** Tetiana Senna **Position:** Team Lead / Senior Project Manager, Storm Reply **Talk Title:** Trust, but Verify: Observability and Evaluations for AWS Agents **Abstract:** Getting an AI agent to work in a demo is easy. Knowing whether it still works in production - after the next prompt change, the next model upgrade, the next edge case - is the hard part. Unit tests don't cover non-deterministic behavior, and manually reviewing a handful of runs doesn't scale. This talk walks through the two practices that close that gap: observability (understanding what actually happened inside your agent) and evaluation (deciding whether the outcome was any good). We'll dig into Amazon Bedrock AgentCore's Observability and Evaluations capabilities, compare the proven evaluation approaches - built-in LLM-as-a-Judge evaluators for automatic quality monitoring, and custom evaluators for business-specific correctness checks - with a candid look at what each one is good for, where it falls short, and what it costs to run at scale. We'll also take a close look at AgentCore Optimization, AWS's newly previewed feature in this space. **Applied Agentic AI Talk** **Speakers:** **Vidhu Mitra Malladi:** Senior Software Engineer, Yara Digital Farming **Chamika Hasanthi:** Senior Software Engineer, Yara Digital Farming **Talk Title:** Weather Risk Intelligence Agent for farmers & Agronomist Abstract: Unpredictable weather events — heavy rainfall, drought, frost, and heatwaves pose significant risk to crop yield and fertilizer efficiency. While forecast data is widely available, it is rarely translated into timely; field-level guidance farmers can act upon. Using AWS AgentCore framework and AI capabilities, we can turn weather predictions into clear agronomic actions, supporting climate-smart agriculture at scale. **You'l learn:** * Implementation of the solution using AWS Agent Core framework * Architecture of the project. 🗓️ **Event Details:** \- Date: Tuesday\, June 30th \- Venue: Storm Reply GmbH\, [address](https://www.google.com/maps/place/Storm+Reply+GmbH/@52.5012692,13.368852,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x47a851119af460c5:0x35e34ba578e8b1ec!8m2!3d52.5012692!4d13.368852!16s%2Fg%2F11gg9298pv?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI2MDUxNy4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D) \- Time: 06:00 PM \- 9:00 PM Doors open at 6:00 PM Food & drinks will be provided. 📋 **Program Schedule:** **18:00** \- Registration and Welcome Networking **18:20** \- AWS Women's User Group Welcome **18:30** \- "Trust\, but Verify: Observability and Evaluations for AWS Agents" **Speaker:** Tetiana Senna, Team Lead / Senior Project Manager, Storm Reply A practical session for anyone working with AI agents on AWS who wants the confidence to put them in front of real users.

**Film Night – Living Legend Series: Wieland Speck** For **LGBTQIA+** **[Free with registration](https://wearevillage.org/shop/village-film/w27-2026)** Guest: ***Marcelo Alves*** **Living Legend Series: Wieland Speck** Intro: 20:00 Screening starts at 20:15 “Bei uns Zu Hause - Chez Nous” 35 min or TBD “David Montgomery und Ich” 16 min “Zimmer 303” 16 min (In German with English subtitles) Although “Legendary” and “iconic” are overused in queer-speak, sometimes the terms fit the person, as it does for this month’s Film night. Join us for a rare opportunity to speak with Wieland Speck, one of queer cinemas “legends” about his own work as a director and his influence on queer cinema as chief curator and head of the prestigious Panorama section of the Berlinale film festival. Typically out of the public eye, his most celebrated work “Westler” is often shown as an example of queer cinema out of Germany, so to have him select from his body of work will give us an insider’s perspective on his intentions as a director and what is conveyed to the audience. For the discussion we will explore particular themes in his films, his influence on the industry and his role in launching directors to the world stage. Please join us in honouring one of the living legends of queer cinema, the iconic Wieland Speck. **About the Village Film Night** Film Night is a monthly event that explores the wide world of queer cinema and beyond. Our selections cover a range of genres and styles, from film history classics to the latest in young queer cinema. Each screening is an opportunity to discover new narratives and voices, engaging with stories that challenge norms and celebrate diversity.

Juni 2026 Intro: 20:00 Uhr Filmbeginn: 20:15 Uhr „Bei uns Zu Hause – Chez Nous“ 35 Min. oder TBD „David Montgomery und Ich“ 16 Min. „Zimmer 303“ 16 Min. (Auf Deutsch mit englischen Untertiteln) Obwohl „legendär“ und „ikonisch“ im queeren Sprachgebrauch oft überstrapaziert werden, gibt es Momente, in denen diese Begriffe wirklich passen – so auch bei der diesmonatigen Filmnacht. Begleitet uns zu einer seltenen Gelegenheit, mit Wieland Speck ins Gespräch zu kommen, einer der „Legenden“ des queeren Kinos. Wir sprechen mit ihm über seine eigene Arbeit als Regisseur sowie über seinen Einfluss auf das queere Kino als Chefkurator und Leiter der renommierten Panorama-Sektion der Berlinale. Meist eher im Hintergrund tätig, wird sein bekanntestes Werk „Westler“ häufig als Beispiel für queeres Kino aus Deutschland gezeigt. Umso spannender ist es, dass er selbst eine Auswahl aus seinem Œuvre präsentiert und uns damit eine Insider-Perspektive auf seine Intentionen als Regisseur und die Wirkung auf das Publikum ermöglicht. Im anschließenden Gespräch widmen wir uns zentralen Themen seiner Filme, seinem Einfluss auf die Branche sowie seiner Rolle dabei, Regisseur\*innen auf die internationale Bühne zu bringen. Kommt vorbei und ehrt mit uns eine der lebenden Legenden des queeren Kinos – den ikonischen Wieland Speck. **Über die Filmnacht am Village** Die monatliche Filmnacht von we are village hat sich zu einem Muss für Cineasten entwickelt, die eine Auswahl an beliebten Klassikern genießen wollen. Das Programm umfasst eine breite Erkundung queerer und nicht-normativer Perspektiven in verschiedenen Genres und künstlerischen Stilen, die über LGBTQIA+Themen hinausgehen. Nach jeder Vorführung werden die Gäste zum Verweilen und zur Teilnahme an entspannten Gruppendiskussionen über die Filme und damit verbundene Themen eingeladen. *\*\* Diese Veranstaltung ist Teil unseres Programms ‚****[Gemeinsam statt einsam](https://wearevillage.org/village-quartiere/addressing-queer-lonliness)****‚, unterstützt von der* ***[LADS](https://www.berlin.de/sen/lads/)****.* *Erfahre mehr über das Programm [hier](https://wearevillage.org/village-quartiere/addressing-queer-lonliness).*

Communicative, collaborative and creative drawing sessions. Participants draw a central still-life that the group can create themselves until the music track finishes and then pass it to the person on their left. The drawings change hands 3 to 5 times and the end results are always inspiring.

There will always be somebody to offer advice if necessary Bring A4 paper, and favourite materials, pencils & brushes. You can also use some studio materials in exchange for a small contribution. A fun but informative approach with consistently creative results!

**You are doing the work. But are the right people seeing the value of it?** **In a difficult economy, being good at what you do is not enough. People are making decisions all the time: who gets trusted, promoted, referred, hired, renewed, funded, or invited into the next room.** **If your value is not clear in those moments, the cost is real.** **You get passed over. Your ideas get credited to someone else. Clients question your rate. Managers miss your contribution. You leave important conversations with vague promises instead of a clear next step.** **This workshop helps you make your value visible without sounding defensive, arrogant, or aggressive.** **Small group of max 20. You need working English to participate.** **This is for you if** * You deliver results but the recognition goes to someone else * You are doing more than people realise, but struggle to say it clearly * You over-explain, soften, or freeze in important conversations * You want to be taken seriously by managers, clients, partners, stakeholders, or decision-makers * You are preparing for a review, pitch, interview, promotion, raise, rate, or business conversation **What you leave with** * A framework to make your value clear * Your own real situation prepared and ready to use * Scripts for stating your contribution * Responses for pushback, dismissal, or vague answers * Practice saying it out loud in a small group * A follow-up email with the scripts and tools from the session **About the host:** Sumita Kar is the founder of Take a Brava Leap (TABL), based in Berlin.

Please RSVP on luma: https://luma.com/xmc1l5eg # Laid off? Same! Barely anyone I know hasn't been laid off at least once. Layoffs feel like another Tuesday right now. That's why I call us "Generation Layoff." If you've been laid off, or feel one coming - this is your space. This meetup is for everybody pre-, during or post-layoff. Whether you stressed out about an upcoming layoff or you've been laid off and now job-hunting or want to start something of your own - come and share. No judgment, no pressure. We share where we're at, what we're going through, and what's coming next. This isn't another networking event where we hunt opportunities and call being laid off "impacted by company restructuring." We connect people based on the challenges they're actually facing - so everyone leaves with something useful, whether that's a contact, a resource, or just knowing you're not alone. Being laid off is often treated as a taboo topic - and it shouldn't be. We'll exchange all the insider tips and tricks and get stronger together. What to Expect: → A chill, zero-judgement safe space → Addressing your challenges → People helping people ORGANISATIONAL STUFFS: → We'll meet in a park, bring a blanket to sit on, a drink of your choice and some snacks, whatever it is you need for a picnic style. ​→ In case of rain we will go to the BRLO Brewery. ​If you can't find us, call +4917626669794 ​I will carry a sign with "GENERATION LAYOFF" though :D ​We meet in Gleisdreieck park here: [https://maps.app.goo.gl/rC6fh9EprxEHnxEL7?g_st=ic](https://maps.app.goo.gl/rC6fh9EprxEHnxEL7?g_st=ic&utm_source=luma)
