The event will be held in English
For English below
\- \- \- \- \-
"Денят на Предприемача" е ежемесечно събитие на живо, на което каним успешни предприемачи, за да разкажат какво стои зад резултатите им. Освен нашите въпроси, всеки от присъстващите може да зададе и свои и да се включи в разговора.
През месец май очаквайте Matthias Zeitler, сериен предприемач
Matthias Zeitler builds and operates long-term residential environments where people live and work — with a focus on making them economically and structurally viable over time, not just attractive in the short term.
He has lived and worked internationally and is now based in Bulgaria, where he leads large-scale real estate and community projects. As chairman and operational lead of Coliving Semkovo, he is responsible for the redevelopment of a \~17,000 m² former hotel into a residential community with more than 200 units.
His work centers on turning underused or mispositioned assets into functioning places — designing ownership structures, operational models, and governance that hold up under real conditions. He typically leads projects through uncertainty and then steps back once they are stable.
Matthias was co-founder of Coworking Bansko, contributing to the town’s emergence as a global remote work hub, and founder of Bansko Nomad Fest, which he later exited. His earlier career includes senior product and technology leadership roles in international, enterprise-scale environments.
His current and upcoming projects include Thracian Views, a residential redevelopment near Sofia, and Nomad Pioneers — an initiative exploring how new remote-work ecosystems form in emerging locations.
His perspective is pragmatic: less about vision and positioning, more about what actually works over time — financially, operationally, and socially.

#47 Cyber Security Talks Bulgaria – 4th birthday party
4 години споделяме знание! Създаваме сигурност. Празнуваме заедно!
Настъпи момент да отпразнуваме заедно **4-тата** **ГОДИШНИНА на Cyber Security Talks Bulgaria**. Този път без домакин и по много по-различен начин. Заповядайте на нашето парти в Art Bar 158 на **20.05**.
Вече 4 години създаваме общност, споделяме опит, мнение и научени уроци, защото така вярваме, че ще постигнем по-сигурно Киберпространство за всички нас.
Стъпвайки отново фраза от добре познатия ни сериал „Бар Наздраве“ : „Where everybody knows your name“, бихме казали, че Cyber Security Talks Bulgaria се утвърди като място, където всеки е добре дошъл. На 20 май това място е „Art Bar 158” (ул. „Княз Борис I“ 158).
Подготвили сме една по-различна от обичайното програма, но ще я разкриваме постепенно.
Както казваше един знаменит българин „Часът и мястото на срещата са известни“ – Часът е обичайният, дата - нестандартна, мястото – различни от всяко до момента.
**Всеки гост на нашето парти ще получи подарък. Първото питие е от нас.**
Ела на едно по-различно събитие с quiz, жива музика и приятни моменти. Бъди част от общността!

PyData Sofia & DSS Meetup March 2026
Please join us on May 20th for an amazing co-hosted practical meetup with the Data Science Society!
## What can you expect?
This hands-on workshop explores how modern AI tools are changing everyday software engineering. Participants will see practical, real-world examples of how developers use tools like Kiro, Claude Code, Windsurf, and Cursor to write, debug, refactor, and understand code more efficiently.
The session focuses on concrete use cases - speeding up feature development, improving code quality, navigating large codebases, and integrating AI into existing development cycles. It will give attendees a clear view of what “AI-augmented development” looks like in practice.
## Who will present?
We have 4 speakers :
* Rosen Krumov
* Borislava Bagaliyska
* Petar Ivanov
* Viktor Botev
Soon we will announce a bit more about the concrete expertize and focus of each of them!

This is for anyone who enjoys:
* Thought-provoking conversations

* Practical philosophy
📅 Date: Tuesday, 19 May

Building Momentum: From Ambiguity to Execution
**Building a great product is one thing—building momentum behind it is another.**
Join **Senior Product Manager Adam Solaiman** and **User Experience Manager Tyson Smith** for a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to turn complex ideas into scalable products inside large organizations.
In this session, they’ll share how teams move from ambiguity to execution—navigating organizational complexity, aligning stakeholders, and continuously evolving products after launch.
You’ll walk away with insights on how to:
* Build and sustain momentum across teams
* Adapt to changing priorities without losing direction
* Scale products thoughtfully in complex environments
Whether you're driving a new initiative or growing an existing product, this conversation will give you practical strategies to keep things moving forward.
