#47 Cyber Security Talks Bulgaria – 4th birthday party
#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.

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.
