*Please note: a one-drink minimum per person is required.* Welcome to our weekly Meetup group for Expats & English speakers permanently living in Barcelona! If you're a Barcelona local looking for a laid-back way to connect with fellow English speakers & residents, this is the perfect gathering for you.

Después de los 2 primeros meetup realizados nos hemos dado cuenta que la mejor manera de proceder por ahora es reunirnos para conocernos y así generar pequeñas formaciones de "music creators". Por ello, este meetup mensual de carácter distendido (tomar algo charlando en una terraza) servirá para que los nuevos y antiguos miembros puedan conocerse para empezar a crear música juntos. Como organizador asistiré a todos estos meetup. ¡Os espero a todos! :) After the first two meetups we realized that the best way to proceed by now is to meet monthly in a relaxed manner (having a drink chatting in a terrace) to meet other music creators and then create new "small" music producers groups. As the organizer I'll be attending all these monthly meetups. Hope to meet all of you! :) Importante: En el punto de encuentro (el Convent de Sant Agustí) suelen realizar eventos. Si finalmente no podemos quedarnos en el bar publicaré en el meetup la ubicación final. De todas maneras, recordad que siempre estaremos de 18:00 a 18:15 esperando en la puerta del Convent. Important: Our meeting point (Convent de Sant Agustí) is usually organizing events. If this is the case, I'll be publishing in the meetup the final location. Anyway, we will always be at the front door of the Convent from 18:00 to 18:15 waiting for our members.

If you’re a beginner and want to experiment, I’ll have a couple of starter kits available so you can try things out—whether that’s blinking your first LED, putting something on a display, or experimenting with simple sensors.

It’s time to take control of your mental health. How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself. Have you ever suffered from a traumatic experience, a deep loss or been through a painful breakup? Has your ability to communicate suffered as a result? And after that, even though you "moved on" did you find that things were never quite the same? Have you ever looked at childhood photos, or reminisced your early life and wondered where that happiness and spark went? Are your emotions out of your own control? Have you ever felt, even if you aren’t aware of it, that possibly you are getting in your own way of your happiness and success? How does this affect your self-confidence? Find out what is at the root of all stress, anxiety, depression and self-doubt. Find out how and why you hold yourself back from achieving your goals and having the life you have dreamed of. As soon as you learn what is at the root of these unwanted conditions, you’ll see it is something you can DO something about. You will not be labeled or categorized at this MeetUp.

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.
