Hello PyData People! We are excited to announce our next event of 2026! This time, we will be hosted at Generali Italia’s Torre Generali in Milan for an evening dedicated to open data, data platform orchestration, and scalable data engineering. 📅 When: Thursday, May 19th, 2026 – 18:30–21:00 📍 Where: Torre Generali Italia, Milan ⚠️ Important: Spots are limited. Please keep your RSVP updated to allow others to participate if you can no longer attend. *** **🕒 Agenda** 18:30 – Doors open & check-in 19:00 – Talk 1: Democratizing Data: A deep dive into Eurostat Open Database – Simona Mazzarino 19:45 – Talk 2: Scaling Data Mesh Orchestration with Dagster: Platform-Driven DAGs without Platform Friction – Marco Santoni and Andrea Romeo 20:30 – Networking & Social Dinner *** **🎤 The Talks** **1️⃣ Democratizing Data: A deep dive into Eurostat Open Database** Speaker: Simona Mazzarino (Data Scientist @ Clearbox AI) In this talk, we explore how to turn open data into actionable insights. You will learn how to navigate Eurostat, the EU’s vast statistical database, and use Python tools to fetch and process data for research, AI, and real-world analysis. We will look at how to discover relevant datasets, work with Eurostat’s interface and APIs, and integrate public statistics into your workflows for visualizations, dashboards, and models. A guiding example will be the analysis of migration flows across European countries, from data discovery to a usable dataset for analytics or machine learning. About the Speaker: Simona Mazzarino is a Data Scientist at Clearbox AI. With a background in linguistics, semiotics, and artificial intelligence, she specializes in language technologies. She is an active volunteer in the Python Torino community, where she helps connect people interested in Python applications, and she also volunteers for PyCon Italia. *** **2️⃣ Scaling Data Mesh Orchestration with Dagster: Platform-Driven DAGs without Platform Friction** Speakers: Andrea Romeo, Platform Engineer @ TeamSystem Data Mesh promises scalability and autonomy, but orchestration often becomes the hidden bottleneck: as data products grow, cross-domain dependencies explode, DAGs become fragile, and upstream teams are forced to react to every new consumer. In this talk, we present a platform-designed orchestration solution built on top of Dagster that enables company-wide orchestration without coupling data products together. Instead of requiring data engineers to manually define DAGs or modify upstream pipelines, each data product simply declares its dependencies on upstream output ports. From these declarations, the platform automatically builds and maintains the global DAG behind the scenes, ensuring that upstream data products remain unaffected by new consumers, orchestration scales as the number of data products grows, and platform standards are enforced without slowing down teams. We’ll walk through: * the orchestration challenges we faced when adopting data mesh at scale * how Dagster was extended and shaped into a platform abstraction, not exposed directly to product teams * the Python-based design patterns used to dynamically generate and evolve DAGs * the resulting developer experience for data engineers building data products This session is a practical, production-tested story of how Python and Dagster can be used to enable scalable orchestration in a real data mesh implementation — without turning the platform team into a bottleneck. About the Speakers: Andrea Romeo is a Platform Engineer at TeamSystem, where he focuses on building and evolving the technical foundation behind data infrastructure. He works closely with development and data teams to design scalable, resilient platforms that support data-driven products and services, with a strong focus on backend, cloud technologies, and developer experience. *** See you there!

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

**Italiano** Già negli anni '80, quando il computer era appena agli albori, Krishnamurti pose una domanda che oggi risuona con urgenza straordinaria: ***"Se la macchina può fare tutto ciò che l'essere umano sa fare, cosa resterà dell'uomo?"*** In questo secondo incontro del gruppo esploreremo il tema dell'**impatto della tecnologia sull'essere umano** attraverso la lente degli insegnamenti di Krishnamurti — ma anche con apertura ad altre voci e prospettive. Krishnamurti non era contro la tecnologia in sé. Vedeva però chiaramente un pericolo sottile: che il cervello umano, abituandosi alla velocità, all'efficienza e alla delega alla macchina, diventasse sempre più meccanico, distratto, ottuso — incapace di quel movimento interiore che solo può portare una vera trasformazione. **Come si svolgerà l'incontro** L'incontro non è una lezione: è una conversazione aperta tra persone che vogliono **indagare insieme**, senza dare per scontata nessuna risposta. Nello spirito di Krishnamurti, non si tratta di "studiare" un pensiero, ma di osservare direttamente — in noi stessi — quanto la tecnologia stia già plasmando il modo in cui pensiamo, sentiamo e ci relazioniamo. **Alcune domande** che potremmo esplorare insieme: * La velocità e la frammentazione digitale stanno rendendo la nostra mente più superficiale? * Stiamo delegando alla macchina non solo il lavoro, ma anche il significato? * È possibile usare la tecnologia senza diventare noi stessi più meccanici? * C'è uno spazio interiore che nessuna macchina può toccare — e lo stiamo coltivando? Nessuna esperienza precedente richiesta. Portate solo la vostra presenza e la disponibilità a guardare senza giudicare e senza motivazioni. **Ingresso libero — posti limitati. Confermate la partecipazione tramite Meetup.** Ci vediamo al Rob De Matt; il locale è a vocazione sociale; la consumazione presso il locale non è obbligatoria ma consigliata in quanto ospita il nostro evento. **English** Already in the 1980s, when computers were just in their infancy, Krishnamurti asked a question that today resonates with extraordinary urgency: ***"If the machine can do everything a human being can do, what will be left of man?"*** In this second meeting of the group, we will explore the theme of **technology's impact on human beings** through the lens of Krishnamurti's teachings — but also with openness to other voices and perspectives. Krishnamurti was not against technology itself. However, he clearly saw a subtle danger: that the human brain, growing accustomed to speed, efficiency, and delegation to the machine, might become increasingly mechanical, distracted, and dull — incapable of that inner movement which alone can bring about true transformation. **How the Meeting Will Unfold** The meeting is not a lecture: it is an open conversation among people who want to enquire together, without taking any answer for granted. In the spirit of Krishnamurti, this is not about "studying" a thought, but about observing directly — within ourselves — how much technology is already shaping the way we think, feel, and relate to one another. **Some questions** we might explore together: * Are speed and digital fragmentation making our minds more superficial? * Are we delegating to the machine not only work, but also meaning? * Is it possible to use technology without becoming more mechanical ourselves? * Is there an inner space that no machine can touch — and are we nurturing it? No prior experience required. Bring only your presence and the willingness to look without judging and without agenda. **Free entry — limited seats. Please confirm your attendance via Meetup.** See you at Rob De Matt; the venue has a social vocation; purchasing something at the venue is not mandatory but encouraged, as it is hosting our event.

Lake Moro is a natural gem of remarkable beauty. Nestled between the Sorline and Rodino hills and overlooked by Mount Pora and Mount Altissimo, it sits at just 381 meters above sea level. From a naturalistic point of view, the influence of the Mediterranean climate of Lake Iseo and the glacial climate of the Adamello makes Lake Moro one of the areas with the highest concentration of biodiversity in Europe. This unique condition also benefits local productions such as cheese, honey, and olive oil. **PROGRAM** 11:00 – Meeting point at G8 Wine Bar Café, Via Vittorio Veneto 20, 24060 Rogno (BG) 11:15 – Departure for Lake Moro Park 12:30 – Approximate arrival, free time, relaxing on the lakeshore, and lunch (packed lunch or independently arranged at local venues) 15:00 – Approximate return **Easy-Medium Level** – About 1h30 and 3.5 km each way, 250 m elevation gain. No special equipment or clothing required. Always bring some food and water, trekking shoes, a towel, and a swimsuit for a possible lakeside break. **Note 1:** Participants must reach the starting point independently (car, bus, train, etc.) or via carpooling by coordinating with other participants in the private Facebook and/or Telegram groups reserved for members (request access once you have your membership card). **Note 2:** The “I will attend” button on Meetup is not considered valid for us.

🍻 **Join Us for Tech Startups on the Terrace - Milan Edition!** 🍻 Hey there! 🌟 We have found a new location that suits out networking needs! Allora, we'd love for you to join us for our next edition of *Tech Startups in the Terrace*. The event is scheduled for **6 PM local Italian time**. The platform does not allow us to change the time zone, so we can only create events in GMT. Thus, you will see the invitation for 7 PM, but you definitely want to come earlier, since the place will be closed from 9-9:30 PM. It's a relaxed and refreshing evening at the **Porta Romana**, in a lovely **coworking space Open by Joivy**, and run by Volodymyr. We have been running for 3.5 years in London, and we are excited to now run our monthly events in Milan as well, welcoming new folks to the community. Whether you're a tech founder, an enthusiast, a budding entrepreneur, or simply curious about the tech scene, you'll fit right in. This isn't about panels or pitching, just good old-fashioned networking with like-minded people over a drink on a Thursday evening. **House Rules:** * Find Volodymyr to introduce yourself so we can welcome you properly. The place owners know we are coming, so you should be able to find us easily. * No hard selling or heavy pitching. This is a chill, friendly after-work get-together. * Not drinking? No worries! You're more than welcome to come hang out and enjoy the conversation. Mark your calendar and come down for some fun tech talk. See you there!

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.

**Welcome to Drunken Philosophy** a casual, curious social discussion **Optional topic for this meetup: What's up with all the AI hate?** A recent survey found that 74% of Americans have a negative view of AI, and I want to know why. Come out and debate whether AI is good or bad. My hot take: a labor-saving tool that could potentially help cure cancer gets called dangerous because it might raise unemployment or cause a speculative investment bubble, that tells you a lot more about capitalism and the economic system we live under than it does about the tool itself. As a computer programmer, I think AI is a wonderful tool that has increased my productivity by at least an order of magnitude. I'd go so far as to say Claude Code is the best tool I have ever used. Debate me and name a better one. Is AI potentially dangerous? Yes, but so are a lot of tools. Chainsaws. Steam engines (early ones would occasionally explode and kill everyone in the room). Do you think cavemen sat around debating whether fire could be used as a weapon or for self-harm, and decided not to discover it? I have two friends who hate AI for opposite reasons: one thinks it's a fad and not useful, and the other thinks it's going to take over everything and cause human extinction. Come out tonight, have a friendly debate, and make some friends. No lectures. Friendly crowd. Drop in for one drink and stay if it's fun.

**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge. **Abstract** TBD **YouTube Link** TBD
