TechFems TechTalks | Unlocking the Power of Data
We have prepared another evening of BI and Data Analytics at [Trainline](https://www.thetrainline.com/), open to everyone.
🚨 **To attend, RSVP at** [https://www.eventbrite.com/e/techfems-techtalks-unlocking-the-power-of-data-tickets-1982880387617](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/techfems-techtalks-unlocking-the-power-of-data-tickets-1982880387617). **This meetup does not accept RSVPs as we track attendance via Eventbrite** this time 🚨
**Agenda**
6:00 PM - Door opens and welcome 👋
6:30 PM - Talks Start
8:00 PM - Socializing & Networking with refreshments and snacks
⚠️ Make sure to **arrive before 6:30 PM**. No one can enter the building after that ⚠️
**🗣️Talks**
1️⃣ **From Chaos to Clarity: Building Your BI Platform**
🎙️ **[Viktoriia Kniazeva](https://www.linkedin.com/in/viktoriia-kniazeva-106403161/)**, Technical Consultant at [Omnevo](https://www.linkedin.com/company/omnevo/)
Many organizations accumulate multiple operational systems, each with its own data model, stack, and integration challenges — and BI often becomes an afterthought stitched on top. This session demonstrates how to design and implement a BI platform from scratch, unifying heterogeneous data sources into a reliable, scalable architecture. Based on hands-on experience with systems like Metabase, we examine patterns for creating clean data flows, ensuring trust, and building a foundation that analytics can grow on.
Takeaways:
• BI as Part of System Architecture: Why analytics needs to be architected—not improvised.
• Data Flow Design: Structuring the path from operational systems to actionable insights.
• What to prepare before starting a BI project — the key checks teams often forget
2️⃣ **Dashboards, Data, and “Did It Work?” at Grafana**
🎙️ **[Maria Dubinets](https://www.linkedin.com/in/maria-dubinets/)**, Senior Data Analyst at [Grafana Labs](https://grafana.com).
Grafana builds industry-leading tools for observing infrastructure — but how does an observability company observe its own products? This talk explores how Product Data Analytics and Experimentation are structured at Grafana, from high-volume event ingestion to statistically rigorous A/B testing. It will unpack how Grafana’s modern data stack — powered by RudderStack, BigQuery, dbt, Prefect, OpenMetadata, and Grafana itself — creates a scalable, governed, and trustworthy source of product truth. The session will then dive into one of Grafana’s most intricate live product experiments that just finished: testing whether automatically surfacing our Interactive Learning Plugin inside Grafana Cloud increases adoption of Synthetic Monitoring and IRM by moving users from Activation to Engagement. Attendees will see how the experiment was designed, sized, instrumented, and analyzed — and what was learned once the results came in. The talk concludes with a preview of the next onboarding experiment focused on improving Day 2–14 engagement for new Cloud users.
What Attendees Will Learn
• 🏗️ How Grafana structures its product data stack
• 📊 How dashboards evolve into decision systems
• 🧪 How product experiments are designed for rigor
• 🚀 Case Study: The Interactive Learning Plugin Experiment

Los 4 Mundos que dirigen tu vida sin que lo sepas
**[Únete al grupo de WhatsApp para recibir el enlace](https://chat.whatsapp.com/JPsrqI5o9xrE3EEPwb2DDn)**
**Muchas personas intentan cambiar su vida actuando solo sobre un área: pensar positivo, motivarse más o “esforzarse”. Sin embargo, los resultados no llegan porque la verdadera transformación ocurre cuando comprendes y alineas los distintos niveles que te gobiernan por dentro.**
En este evento descubrirás los **4 Mundos que influyen directamente en tus decisiones, emociones y resultados**, aunque no seas consciente de ello. Entenderlos te permitirá identificar con claridad dónde se están produciendo tus bloqueos y por qué repites ciertos patrones.
Durante la sesión trabajaremos:
* *Qué son los 4 Mundos y cómo interactúan entre sí*
* *Por qué cambiar solo desde uno genera frustración y retrocesos*
* *Cómo detectar en qué mundo está tu principal bloqueo actual*
* *La relación entre hábitos, pensamientos, emociones y propósito*
* *Claves prácticas para empezar a alinearlos de forma consciente*
Este encuentro está dirigido a personas que sienten estancamiento, confusión o repetición de patrones, y que buscan una comprensión más profunda de sí mismas y de su proceso de cambio.
No se trata de hacer más, sino de entender mejor desde dónde estás viviendo.
***Si quieres claridad, dirección y un mapa interno más consciente, este evento es para ti.***

Tour, la filosofia escondida de Barcelona
¿Cuál es la relación entre los filósofos y la ciudad de Barcelona? ¿Cómo pasaron por ella? ¿Qué reflexiones han surgido de su encuentro y cuáles siguen ocultas en los callejones de la ciudad?
Como hacían los filósofos peripatéticos, la reflexión se desarrollará también en movimiento. En cada etapa, un filósofo y una idea permitirán que se desplieguen las ideas sobre la idea de ciudad. De hecho, el hilo conductor del recorrido es la propia idea de «ciudad». Será un pensar caminando, un cuestionar conociendo.
El "Tour" es una experiencia colectiva de diálogo filosófico apta para tod@s, tanto para l@s que conocen bien la filosofía como para l@s que no la conocen en absoluto. Para todas las edades y perspectivas. El recorrido dura alrededor de 1 hora y 45 minutos. Al finalizar, podrás realizar un aporte libre, de acuerdo con lo que consideres que ha valido la experiencia. ¿Qué esperas para animarte a vivir esta nueva practica filosófica?
CÓMO PARTICIPAR
1. Reserva tu presencia en Meetup
2. El aporte libre se podrá realizar a final del "tour" en efectivo o por:
Revolut: +393388716566
Paypal: proemaci@gmail.com
Transferencia bancaria: IBAN: IT25Y0760103200000070285267 (motivo del pago: Barcelona)
ATENCIÓN: Si no puedes venir, por favor date de baja en Meetup o avísanos por WhatsApp (+34613937727).
Las ausencias sin aviso podrán limitar la participación en próximos tours. ¡Gracias por tu colaboración!
Importante: Para poder realizar el tour necesitamos al menos 3 personas inscritas.

From Web Forms to Web Components - Burton Smith
**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
**Abstract**
Web Forms gave .NET developers a powerful abstraction for building reusable UI controls long before design systems were a thing. Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively.
This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. We’ll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from server‑driven controls, and why they’re becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether you’re maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, you’ll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standards‑based way.

ServiceNow's Got Talent
Builders, creators, architects, admins, consultants - come one, come all. This one's for you.
We're bringing a little friendly competition to the Columbus ServiceNow community while highlighting the cool things people have built on the platform.
Five presenters will take the stage to showcase something they've built, solved, designed, or imagined on the ServiceNow platform - and a panel of judges (plus YOU, our amazing audience) will score them live.
So basically, America's Got Talent but make it ServiceNow's Got Talent.
Bring a notepad if you'd like 'cause you'll definitely be learning something new.
Each presenter gets 10 minutes max to wow the crowd with:
• A demo
• A real-world business solution
• A bold idea
• A UX transformation
• Or a creative use of the platform
Judging Criteria:
🏆 Business Value
🚀 Innovation
✨ User Experience
This event is about celebrating ideas, sharing knowledge, and showing how ServiceNow can drive both business impact and meaningful user value.
Come learn. Come support. Come get inspired.
Refreshments and bites will be provided.
And maybe next time… you’ll be on stage.
The Clawwww
OpenClaw, NemoClaw, personal assistants, 24/7 agents. What does it all mean? How does it all work and what should we know about it?
Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.

Using Philosophy to Cope with Current Events
So this month's prompt is more general. I think we can all agree that we are living in "unique" times that require coping skills. I think that one role and/or purpose of philosophy is to help us deal with our daily lives and our "unique" times. So, let's share our feelings and thoughts about which philosopher/philosophy we turn to in order to deal with our crazy events. Who/what helps you stay focused in your daily life and helps you sleep at night. I find that Stoicism with a little philosophical pessimism mixed in goes a long way in helping me deal with what I see as very destructive, fearful and mean spirited public policies at both the state and federal levels. Hope to see you on March 28th!
