Questo meetup nasce proprio con questo spirito. **Un incontro informale ma strutturato** per riflettere insieme su ciò che **il Salone ci ispira**: le idee che funzionano, le sfide che emergono e le opportunità che possiamo intravedere per il **futuro del design**, dell’**innovazione** e dei **processi creativi.** Per facilitare la conversazione utilizzeremo **Rose, Thorn, Bud**, una microstruttura molto efficace per generare insight e riflessioni condivise

Don't forget to get your ticket on Eventbrite to register for the event: https://www.eventbrite.it/e/post-technical-data-practitioner-impulses-and-conversation-tickets-1988266535731 Data practitioners (Data Scientists, Architects and Engineers, AI/ML Engineers and Strategists, etc) are changing the world, bringing machine learning and AI models to life, building the recommender systems that influence what we buy, watch, and listen to, and deciding how companies use the data they have about us. Our roles as data practitioners now have an impact beyond the immediate technical work we do. We believe it's time to reconsider our understanding of ourselves and our role to meet the growing influence our work has on our companies and society at large and to remain relevant as the technical aspect of our work becomes more automated. We call this the "post-technical data practitioner". Talk 1: Post-Technical Data Practitioner (Davide Posillipo, Komebi Studio) Talk 2: Stoic Data Scientist Framework (Rachel Berryman, Common Digital) Speakers: Rachel Berryman is an AI and Data Strategist based in Berlin. Rachel focuses on building responsible AI systems, primarily in the energy sector, and writes a substack on making better data solutions: [commondigital.substack.com](http://commondigital.substack.com/) Davide Posillipo is a Data Scientist and co-founder of Komebi Studio, a design studio dedicated to exploring the intersections between Data, AI and Design.

Hello fellow designers! This time we're practicing the art of noticing at Giardini Montanelli (Porta Venezia park). We'll wander, slow down, and capture what catches our attention through sketching, photography, writing, or whatever medium feels right to you. Bring your sketchbooks, pens, pencils, cameras, or just your eyes and a curious mind. After exploring, we'll gather at the café in the park to share what we noticed over a coffee. Let's immerse ourselves in the park together and see what it has to teach us.

**Quando il framework piu' complesso diventa il piu' semplice** Speaker: **Riccardo Degni** Negli ultimi anni ci è stata raccontata una storia piuttosto semplice: Angular è complesso, React è facile. Ma è davvero ancora così? Con l’arrivo dei Signals, l’evoluzione della template syntax e la rimozione progressiva di molte complessità storiche, Angular ha intrapreso una trasformazione profonda. Non solo nelle API, ma nel modo stesso in cui pensiamo e costruiamo applicazioni front-end. In questo talk metteremo Angular e React a confronto senza filtri, andando oltre le percezioni comuni e le narrative ormai datate. Parleremo di ciò che conta davvero nello sviluppo quotidiano: * modello mentale * gestione dello stato * flusso dei dati * prevedibilità del rendering * esperienza di sviluppo Vedremo come alcune scelte architetturali dell’Angular moderno possano portare a maggiore chiarezza, ridurre il carico cognitivo e rendere lo sviluppo più diretto e controllabile — fino al punto da ribaltare un’idea diffusa: oggi Angular può risultare più semplice di React, soprattutto in contesti reali e complessi. Non sarà una gara per decretare un vincitore, ma un confronto tecnico, concreto e aggiornato per capire davvero come stanno evolvendo i due ecosistemi — e come scegliere (e usare) al meglio gli strumenti del front-end moderno. 👉 Se sei uno sviluppatore front-end, questo talk ti darà una prospettiva chiara, pratica e attuale.

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. **SPEAKER BIO** Mosaic Syed is a Senior Data Engineering and Cloud Solutions Architect with over 20 years of experience designing and delivering scalable, secure, and high-performance data solutions across global enterprise environments. https://www.linkedin.com/in/mosaic-basha-syed-92300856 **CALL FOR SPEAKERS** Learn more: [https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/](https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/) **THANK YOU** *VEEAM* for hosting our meetup!

**Total Eclipse of the Chart: School Redistricting Dashboards** In this presentation, we will explore the utilization of maps, sets, and SQL within a Tableau dashboard to help provide “what-if” analyses generated through the use of a mapped dashboard, providing different scenarios and the potential implications of these. While in this use case we are focused on a large school district, the concepts of utilizing existing data to explore the future impacts of modifying different geographic boundaries can be useful to many industries, balancing the mix of maps with visual analytics. **About Our Speaker** Robert Kramer is the Data Systems and State Reporting Coordinator at South Western City Schools in Grove City.

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.
