Coffee Talk
Fulfillment. Joy. – Do you know what it is? Do you feel it now?
Many of us are living lives that have “just sort of happened”. We had a dream, a vision (maybe we still do) for what we wanted our lives to look like. Somewhere along the way, life took over and something else ended up happening. We made decisions, took a turn down a path, and now our life isn’t what we thought it would be.
Or we’re living someone else’s life. Maybe it’s what our parent’s wanted for us. What we believe our partner or a potential partner might want. Or maybe it’s what we believe we need to do and have to be happy. I was one of these people. My life checked all the boxes for what I thought I needed in order to be happy. And still, I wasn’t.
Join me for a coffee talk on what it means to live a Life By Design. Where your choices are deliberate and based on your authentic, true self. What you have to let go off to achieve this (hint: the notion that vulnerability is a weakness and feelings of fear and guilt) and who you will become in the process.
Paint Mandalas with dots
Learn how to paint Mandalas with dots.
Painting a mandala is a therapeutic artistic activity that helps you de-stress and calm down. When you paint a mandala, all your attention goes towards maintaining symmetry. You get engrossed in the patterns and get into the flow of creation.
If done with an intention, painting a mandala lets you be in and enjoy the present.
Membership costs 50kr a year

Service Operations Workspace - Smart Customizations
**Join us for a Copenhagen ServiceNow Developer Meetup focused on smart customizations in the Service Operations Workspace (SOW)!**
This session tackles one of the most common pitfalls in ServiceNow projects: customizing Workspaces without a clear strategy. We'll look at where ServiceNow is taking the Workspace model, whether your organization is actually ready for it, and how to define a customization approach that serves your users - not just your backlog.
A big part of getting this right is understanding your audience. Who is actually using the workspace? What do they need to see - and just as importantly, what should they never have to deal with?
We'll work through how to segment by user group, define what's relevant for each, and build a strategy that holds up over time.
**Program:**
* Welcome & intro
* ServiceNow's Workspace vision -where it's heading and why it matters
* Is your org ready? An honest readiness check
* Defining your SOW strategy: audience, scope, and what to skip
* Q&A and networking
**Remember to bring your laptop!**
**Grow your network** — This is a great opportunity to engage with fellow ServiceNow developers, swap war stories, and pick up practical ideas you can use the next day.
**Win swag** — We'll draw winners of cool ServiceNow Developer Swag!

We provide access to hundreds of experiences that explore your passions and connect you with other event participants. **Check our website to learn more, and apply to join our community and events**: [lesamis.cc/apply](https://www.lesamis.cc/apply)
Finally! Someone who gets Agile and DevOps — to the point🤖
**[Klaus Bucka-Lassen](https://www.linkedin.com/in/buckalassen/)**: *An agile advisor and consultant with 25+ years experience with helping organizations streamline their agile processes.*
**[Lars Kruse](https://www.lakruzz.com/):** *A Continuous Delivery and DevOps evangelist and consultant with 25+ years experience with helping organizations streamline their SDLC processes.*
**For 25 years we've been preaching the basic principles of Agile and DevOps to teams, colleagues and clients.** Both Agile and DevOps have been declared DEAD many times. But now it's apparently *un-dead* (pun intended🤷♂️), as Agentic AI matures by the hour — a whole new breed of code contributors are entering the stage.
And they get EXACTLY what it's about: **Agentic AI may just be the the best Agile and most DevOpsy team mates one could dream of.**
What could possibly go wrong now?
You are hereby invited to a **short intro** (roughly 30 mins, expect slightly *provocative* and *opinionated* content — something that old men are still way better at than AI) followed by a facilitated **lean coffee discussion** on an *apocaloptimistic* perspective on:
***"What the heck is going on in Agile and DevOps Right Now"***
The venue is a bar 🍻 - so do not expect anything other than lively discussions with peers.
We're kicked out of the Workbar at 19:00 by the latest, but if the sentiment is right we may continue on to somewhere else and grab a bite after.
\- Cheers\!

Building Agents with Microsoft Agent Framework
We will show how to build custom agents with Microsoft Agent Framework. Attendees will learn how to build and custom host agents when Microsoft Foundry is not a viable option.
Building Scalable Customer Identity Resolution Pipelines on AWS Using AI
Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs.
This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context.
We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing.

CBusData - Practical AI for Power BI Developers
Practical AI for Power BI Developers
A year ago, “agentic AI” was mostly hype for Power BI teams. Today, it deserves your undivided attention. For Power BI pros, there is now a real opportunity to reduce repetitive development work, accelerate delivery, and help developers do more, but only when strong DataOps practices are in place to make AI workflows effective.
This session is a no-nonsense introduction to effective AI patterns for Power BI and Fabric development. Along the way, we will make sense of the growing pile of terminology, including skills, plugins, hooks, and MCP. You will see examples of how modern AI tooling can help with development tasks across Power BI and Fabric, along with the prerequisites, guardrails, and DataOps principles needed to use it responsibly.
Whether you're burned out on AI hype or already using Copilot CLI daily, this session will show you the foundations that are finally making AI-assisted development genuinely useful.
