🤖 AI agents aren't chatbots! They decide, they act, they call APIs, they handle data and when something goes wrong, you find out days later, if at all. Over the past twelve months, production agents have leaked credentials, executed unauthorized transactions, and exfiltrated confidential data through prompt injection. Classical security and QA playbooks don't catch these attack surfaces, because the trust boundary just moved, and most teams haven't caught up yet. We're gathering for an honest conversation - no theory, no vendor pitches. On the panel, practitioners who work on agent security every day, from people leading international open-source security frameworks to QA veterans who know first-hand why deterministic testing collapses in the face of non-deterministic AI. We'll talk about the new attack surfaces, real production incidents, and what every builder needs to know before shipping agents. Most AI security conversations happen behind closed doors. This one happens under the open Athens sky — accessible to all levels, beer in hand, in the city that invented public discourse.🍻 📅 **Thursday, May 28, 2026, 19:00**, we'll discuss the security of Agentic AI systems, real-world incidents, emerging attack surfaces, and what every builder needs to know before they ship. 📍 Where? **In the back courtyard of New York College, 38 Vasilissis Amalias Avenue, Athens 105 58** — a relaxed, open-air space in the heart of the city, ideal for conversation and networking. 🚌 Getting there: Right across from the National Garden: Metro: "Syntagma" Station (Lines 2 & 3) — 3 minutes on foot Tram: "Syntagma" Stop Buses: 040, 550, X14, 5, 15 (Stops "Amalias" or "Syntagma") Trolleybuses: 2, 4, 5, 11 (Stop "Syntagma") 👉 **Panel Discussion: Securing the Agentic Web** An honest conversation about the security challenges of agentic AI — what actually goes wrong in practice, what the new attack surfaces look like, and how you build AI agents that won't betray you when incidents hit. Accessible to all levels — no prior security background required. 👉 **Fireside Chat: Success Stories** Honest, first-hand accounts from teams inside Greek enterprises who deployed agentic AI into production and lived through what came next. They'll walk us through the risks they actually faced. 📋 **Program** **18:45 – 19:00: 🚪 Arrival & welcome** **19:00 – 19:30: 🎙️ Panel Discussion — Securing the Agentic Web (30')** * *John Sotiropoulos* **19:30 – 20:00: 🔥 Fireside Chat — Success Stories (30')** * *Romanos Matthaiasos* **20:00 – 20:15: 🙋‍♂️🙋‍♀️ Q&A — open questions from the audience (15')** **20:15 – 21:30: 🍻 Networking & Drinks (75')** 🎯 **Why you should come** 1. You'll understand how agentic AI systems fail in real scenarios — not theory, but what has actually happened 2. You'll get practical insights from people working actively in AI security 3. You'll meet builders and founders facing the same challenges as you 4. You'll connect with the Greek AI community at the largest tech gathering of the year 5. And you'll have an unforgettable evening — with a beer in hand, under the Athenian sky 🍻 **Seats are running out faster than the first beer. Book now!** 🚨 🚀 **Supporters** Thanks to New York College for hosting us and to the Panathenea 2026 team for the framework. This event is supported by HumanBound — an AI agent security testing platform that helps teams find vulnerabilities in their agents before attackers do. 🎤 **Speakers** * **John Sotiropoulos** — Leader of the global OWASP Agentic AI Top 10 initiative, one of the most important open-source frameworks for AI agent security worldwide. * **Romanos Matthaiasos** — Software QA Manager at Eurolife FFH & ISTQB Instructor. Evangelist of the shift-left mentality with 17+ years in test automation, who'll explain why classic QA playbooks fall apart in the face of non-deterministic AI. *By registering, you accept that AIandBeers and HumanBound will use your information (first name, last name, email) to organize the event and create networking opportunities.

Ready to hand over the code entirely to AI agents and just focus on system design? So are we. Until we need to debug whatever hallucinated dependency the agent snuck into production, let's do an Architecture Kata. **What is an Architecture Kata?** An Architecture Kata is a structured group exercise where we tackle realistic design problems as peers by sketching, questioning, and iterating out loud. No single "right" answer. Just engineers working towards a solution together. **How we'll spend the evening** * **Scenario Drop** (15 min): We introduce a concrete business situation. * **Small Group Sketching** (60 min): Break into groups of 3-5. Draw, argue, change your mind, start over. The goal isn't a perfect diagram, but the rationale behind it. * **Walkthrough & Peer Review** (30 min): Groups share where they landed. The rest of us ask "what if?" and "have you considered?" We learn from each other's blind spots. **Who This Is For** * Engineers who want to practice designing out loud * Anyone with interest/experience in software architecture (Optional) Your laptop, though markers and whiteboards do most of the work **Sponsors** Our sponsors for this meetup are [Yodeck](https://www.yodeck.com/) \- who are not only kindly providing the venue\, free of charge\, but who will also treat us to some snacks / drinks for the networking session after the meetup\! Do stick around and say hi!

⚠️ **IMPORTANT: You must sign up and buy a ticket here to attend:** [https://groupvibe.com/](https://groupvibe.com/) **Join the Athens Brunch Club and make new friends!** Each meetup brings together 4–6 people for casual conversations over brunch. We use the Groupvibe platform to facilitate the meetup and ensure everyone’s a good fit. 👉 **To attend, you’ll need to complete registration via this link:** [https://groupvibe.com/](https://groupvibe.com/) We’ll share the exact location of the upcoming meetup the night before only if you have bought a ticket or membership plan. **Why this works:** \* Smaller groups make real conversations easier. \* Discover new brunch spots in your city, together. \* Curated brunch venues with good food and vibe. \* If you hit it off with your brunch group, there’s plenty of time to hang out afterwards. **Note:** RSVPs on Meetup don’t reflect total attendance. Many attendees register directly via our website. The event on Meetup.com is only a placeholder. This meetup is organized by Groupvibe, a small team passionate about helping people form meaningful friendships offline.

**The Behavior Gap: Where Products Win or Lose** Teams today have more data than ever, and yet many still struggle to understand why customers adopt, engage with, or abandon their products. Teams sprint, ship faster, and chase more signals… all while metrics stall and confidence drops. The missing piece isn’t more data. It’s often the behavioral insight between the metrics, explaining why the numbers move in the first place. Dashboards can tell you what customers did, but understanding why they did it (and how to influence what they do next) requires a deeper blend of insights. This session is about closing that gap. Drawing from real-world experience designing and scaling products as [ZoCo Design](https://zocodesign.com/)’s CEO, [Lacey](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) will share how to cut through the noise and identify the insights that actually change behavior—moving people, and moving metrics. You’ll learn: * Why understanding customer behavior is a quant and qual challenge * How to spot the signals that actually predict behavior change * Where AI accelerates insight, and where it creates distraction * How to get meaningfully closer to customers, without adding more tools This talk reframes how to evaluate performance and identify what levers actually improve it, helping your team to make smarter bets with greater confidence. Every meaningful outcome is driven by behavior change. And when you know how to design for behavior, you stop guessing, and start building things that work. **About Our Speaker** [Lacey Picazo](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) is the Founder and CEO of ZoCo, a healthcare product studio that turns complex, high-stakes ideas into products that drive real-world adoption. She partners with healthcare organizations to uncover critical care delivery insights, focus product strategy through behavior design, and build solutions that patients and providers actually use.

In this session we'll explore strategies to protect our codebases through unit and integration testing, documentation, and code review along with additional ways of providing context and guard rails to our AI agents as they carry out the work we've assigned them to do. By the time we're done, you'll have a firm grasp of the problem and understand some helpful options for protecting your codebase from vibe coding mishaps getting YOLOed into prod. **YouTube Link** https://youtube.com/live/BltmWMH1zG0?feature=share
