Ciao Pythonistas! 🐍 This month we shake things up with an incredible lineup. We have not one, not two, but three experienced developers who are now working as Engineering Managers, Heads of, or even VPs of Data, AI and Generative AI in large organisations. Not only that, but we're changing the format. This time, rather than a talk, we will engage in a panel - with open QA from the public about their experience, challenges and perspectives. Don't expect a one-sided panel: we will discuss themes ranging from data and AI governance, how to ship AI solutions that work in large enterprises and manage stakeholders, but also how to organise a team given how much GenAI and coding agents have changed the way we do our job. **Parvaneh Shiafiei, AI Manager @ TUI Musement** **Alberto Danese, Head of Data Science & Advanced Analytics @ Nexi** **Marco Santoni, Data Platform and Engineering Manager @ TeamSystem** **Parvaneh Shiafiei** is an AI Manager with over 10 years of experience delivering AI solutions that drive real business impact. She currently works at TUI Musement in the travel industry, where she focuses on improving both internal and customer-facing processes through AI, developing and scaling solutions in production, including GenAI applications. Working closely with cross-functional teams across product, engineering, and business, she helps translate AI capabilities into practical solutions such as conversational AI for customer interactions, GenAI tools that streamline internal processes, and ranking and recommendation systems that improve product discovery. Before joining TUI, she spent several years in consulting, helping organizations across industries identify high-impact AI use cases and bring AI solutions into production. **Alberto Danese** is the Head of Data Science & Advanced Analytics at Nexi, where he oversees the design and production of AI/ML systems for the digital payments sector, leading four teams across analytics and engineering. He has over 15 years of experience in data science applied to financial services. He is a Kaggle Competitions Grandmaster and regularly shares projects and insights on ML, AI, and data systems through talks, open-source projects, and his blog, *All About Data*. **Marco Santoni** is a Data Platform and Engineering Manager at TeamSystem, where he works on scalable data platforms, AI-enabled data products, and data governance architectures. Based in Milan, he is an active member of Python Milano community and co-host of the Intervista Pythonista podcast. He is also involved in education as Technical and Scientific Advisor at ITS Rizzoli, where he teaches data and software engineering topics. **🙏 Sponsors** A big thank you to **NumFOCUS** for supporting our community!

**This club welcomes founders and venture capitalists from all walks of life, past, present, and future.** ​Like steering a company, basketball poses unique challenges. The sense of unity and collaborative spirit that emerges on the basketball court can turn an intense game into an unforgettable adventure. ​🏀 Basketball challenges our athletic prowess and capacities for communication, strategy development, and forging deep bonds with our teammates. **Game information** \- 60 minutes game/ circa €70 total **\- €10 per person \(pay before the game [https://paypal.me/alexbing2](https://paypal.me/alexbing2))** \- Arrive 15 minutes before to have time to meet & greet other players\. **YOU CAN REGISTER via [https://luma.com/a1durh26](https://luma.com/a1durh26)** The cancellation policy: 2 days before the event.

🧘 Yoga & Sound Healing🎐 Mercoledì e Venerdì ore 9.00 Cominciamo la giornata con una pratica dolce e intensa: una sessione di Hatha Yoga accompagnata da un rilassamento finale con campane di cristallo di quarzo. La pratica è semplice, accessibile e profondamente introspettiva. Il lavoro sul respiro guida il movimento, mentre il suono sostiene il sistema nervoso e favorisce uno stato di presenza stabile e rigenerante. Le posizioni vengono mantenute con ascolto, senza forzature, per creare spazio, sciogliere le tensioni e risvegliare l’energia in modo naturale. Le vibrazioni delle campane accompagnano la fase finale di rilassamento, permettendo al corpo di integrare il lavoro e alla mente di quietarsi.

Sono proprietario di un bar e dispongo di un tavolo da biliardo semi-professionale. Sto creando un gruppo WhatsApp di giocatori amatoriali di biliardo americano pool/carambola, per la maggior parte debuttanti. Cerco persone disposte a unirsi al gruppo per giocare e divertirsi nel tempo libero, il pomeriggio oppure la sera in ogni giorno. Per stimolare l'impegno di ogni giocatore, abbiamo pattuito che il vincitore di ogni "mini-torneo" organizzato nei vari giorni giochi gratis e non paghi la tariffa di tempo per il periodo di gioco (un'ora di gioco costa 10€, ma viene di volta in volta frazionata in base al periodo di gioco effettivo). Il locale si trova in zona nord di Milano, stazione Greco-Pirelli, università Bicocca. Chiunque dovesse essere davvero interessato a partecipare e unirsi al mio gruppo, non esiti a contattarmi. Cerco persone serie e disposte solamente a divertirsi, senza puntare mazzette grazie mille. Antonio

Il 21 marzo segna un passaggio, un equilibrio sottile tra luce e ombra, tra ciò che si compie e ciò che è pronto a nascere. In questo incontro di Costellazioni Familiari daremo spazio ai movimenti profondi della nostra anima affinché ciò che appartiene al passato trovi il suo giusto posto e ciò che è pronto ad emergere possa farlo con forza e chiarezza. Onorare l’inverno significa riconoscere ciò che è stato, senza restarne trattenuti. Attraverseremo insieme questo tempo di soglia, permettendo alla vita di aprirsi al primo sole di primavera. ***

**📌 What** Kick off your weekend with the undisputed king of party games. Whether you're a sniper with the ping pong ball or you just enjoy the "beer" part of the game, this is the place to be. It's loud, it's fun, and it's the easiest way to make new friends in Milan. ***How it works:*** Meet at **20:30** at the **reserved table** to grab a drink, mingle, and form teams. The games start officially at **21:00**. Look for the group near the tables (or follow the sound of bouncing balls). ❗️You need to connect with other participants in the **[Whatsapp Chat](https://chat.whatsapp.com/CGBND0zPLG5DTUNlCjVMel)** to form a group! More info below. **📌 Who** Expats, students, locals, and anyone with decent hand-eye coordination (or willingness to learn). **📌 How** * RSVP to join. * Join the **[Whatsapp Group ](https://chat.whatsapp.com/CGBND0zPLG5DTUNlCjVMel)**— [Critical to find the group and form teams]. * (Please please please) keep your RSVP on Meetup updated 🫶

**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.**

We’ll meet in Porta Romana and start with a relaxed social walk, then head for brunch near Centrale Station. Expect around 4-5 km of walking. We plan to be finished around 2:00 PM. 1. Please **no last-minute RSVPs**. Once the event starts, we won’t be able to assist online, so make sure you’ve checked the WhatsApp updates in advance. 2. Feel free to bring a **game, activity, or conversation idea**. *This group values openness, kindness, proactiveness, and engagement. 💛* 3. If you live in the **north of the city**, reach out in advance. If there’s enough interest, we may arrange an alternative starting point. 4. All meeting points and live locations will be shared via **WhatsApp**. If you’re new to the group, please contact **Ellie**. **Important** The event can be **confirmed or canceled the day before**, depending on attendance and weather. Please update your RSVP if your plans change. **About WE NEED + PPL** Aiming to build a community for adults 25-50 who prefer real, casual hangouts.
