**Event Summary** 5 minutes. Two woman. A spark. Rotate through 1-on-1 conversations with 15+ women in tech and find your next partner, mentor, co-founder, or collaborator. **Description** Want to meet interesting women in tech without the pressure? This is speed networking — a gentle, human format where you have 1-on-1 conversations with women you'd actually want to know. No pitches. No performing. Just real talks with real people. **How it works:** You sit across from someone. You have 5 minutes to talk. Ask each other what you're building, what you're curious about, what you're working through. A soft bell rings. You move to the next person. By the end of 90 minutes, you've met a dozen women — some become collaborators, some become friends, some just remind you why you love this work. **Who's this for?** Woman in tech, Founders, engineers, designers, product managers, mentors, marketing, etc. anyone building or exploring in tech. Early-stage or scaling. Experienced or just starting. All we ask is genuine curiosity and an open heart. Whether you're looking for a co-founder, a mentor, a peer who gets it, or just interesting people to learn from — there's space for you here. **Why this format?** It feels like a real conversation, not networking. Because it is. Meet quality over quantity. 5 minutes is enough to know if there's real connection. Unexpected friendships. Sometimes the person who changes your trajectory isn't who you were looking for. Share what you know. If you've got experience, there's someone here who'd love to learn from you. If you're early-stage, there's someone who remembers what that felt like. Just women being humans together. No competition. No ego. Just real. **What to bring:** Yourself. Your ideas. Your phone (LinkedIn app open and ready). We'll provide prompts to get conversations started if you need them. After the event you can stay for a non-structured networking to keep going the conversation. We'll add you to a WhatsApp group so you can follow up with the people you connected with. The magic happens in the DMs — so show up ready to be proactive. **WhatsApp Group:** [https://chat.whatsapp.com/GSwiV9YYOtwCcxnOPvgtbL](https://chat.whatsapp.com/GSwiV9YYOtwCcxnOPvgtbL)

🥾🛶 Join us for a fresh Costa Brava day in Llançà: sea, cliffs, coastal paths, kayaking, swimming and snorkeling and beach time. 🥾🛶 *Un día refrescante en la Costa Brava, en Llança combinando kayak de mar, snorkel, calas escondidas, vistas costeras y un ambiente relajado de playa.* **[CASTELLANO + ABAJO ⤵️]** 🛶 **The Plan** We’ll usually start with a 2-hour guided sea kayak activity, with time on the water and a stop for snorkeling. This area is especially beautiful from the sea: a wilder stretch of the Costa Brava, with rocky coastline, clear Mediterranean water, hidden corners and sea caves. One of the highlights of the kayak route is the Cova del Castellar, a hidden gem that will surprise you with its natural beauty and impressive rock formations. During the kayak activity, the guide will share some insights about the coastline and the marine life of the area, so we can enjoy the place not only as an adventure, but also as a small discovery of this unique wild Mediterranean environment. After the kayak, we’ll continue with an easy coastal hike to enjoy the landscape from land, find a nice spot for picnic and spend some relaxed time by the beach. And if kayak is not your thing, no problem. You can join with the hiking + beach chill option: while the others go kayaking, you can stay by the beach, swim, relax or enjoy your picnic, and then meet the group again for the hiking part. The usual plan is kayak first, hiking afterwards, but depending on sea and weather conditions, we may change the order to keep the day safe and smooth. A simple and happy Costa Brava day: sea, kayak if you feel like it, hiking, beach time and good people. 🚦**Difficulty level** 🛶 **Kayak:** around 2h paddling route Difficulty: Easy\*\*.\*\* Suitable for all people. (you need to know how to swim) 🥾 **Hiking:** around 2 - 3 h walk Difficulty: easy. 🚗 **How do we get there?** We’ll go by shared cars from Barcelona.

Moshe \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- 🛶 **El plan** Empezaremos con una actividad guiada de kayak de mar de 2 horas, con tiempo en el agua y una parada para hacer snorkel. Esta zona es especialmente bonita desde el mar: un tramo más salvaje de la Costa Brava, con costa rocosa, aguas cristalinas, rincones escondidos y cuevas marinas. Uno de los highlights de la ruta en kayak es la Cova del Castellar, una joya escondida que os sorprenderá por su belleza natural y sus impresionantes formaciones rocosas. Durante la actividad de kayak, el guía también compartirá algunas explicaciones sobre la costa y la vida marina de la zona, para disfrutar del lugar no solo como una aventura, sino también como una pequeña descubierta de este entorno mediterráneo tan salvaje y especial. Después del kayak, seguiremos con una ruta fácil de senderismo por la costa para disfrutar del paisaje desde tierra, buscar un buen sitio para comer nuestro picnic y pasar un rato tranquilo cerca de la playa. Y si el kayak no es lo tuyo, no pasa nada. Puedes apuntarte con la opción senderismo + chill time en la playa: mientras los demás hacen kayak, puedes quedarte en la playa, bañarte, descansar, leer, comer tu picnic o simplemente disfrutar del Mediterráneo a tu ritmo. Después nos reencontraremos con el grupo para hacer la parte de senderismo juntos. El plan habitual es hacer primero el kayak y después el senderismo, pero según el estado del mar y la previsión meteorológica, podemos cambiar el orden para que la actividad sea más segura y agradable. Un día simple y feliz en la Costa Brava: mar, kayak si te apetece, senderismo, playa y buena gente. 🚦 **Nivel de dificultad** 🛶 Kayak: ruta de unos 2 h remando Dificultad: fácil. Apta para todos los públicos. Es necesario saber nadar. 🥾 Senderismo: ruta de unas 2–3 h caminando Dificultad: fácil. 🚗 **¿Cómo llegamos?** Iremos en coches compartidos desde Barcelona.

Monthly working lunch for Columbus business owners. One specific topic, one to three actions you can run this week. You can be the best at what you do and still be invisible. If local buyers cannot find you, the phone does not ring. Marketing Monday Lunch + Learn is a monthly working lunch for Columbus business owners focused on building relationships, local networking, and local marketing. Every kind of local business welcome. No pitch round, no pressure, no upsell. **This month** Most local businesses pick one or two places to be visible and call it good. The result is inconsistent calls and a feeling that marketing is not working. We will walk through the three places every local business needs to show up, plus the fourth place most owners ignore that quietly produces the warmest leads. **What to expect** Doors open at noon. Order lunch and drinks at the cafe counter or bring your own. You get real conversation with other local owners and a focused marketing lesson. You leave knowing people and with one to three actions to run that week. The room is reserved through 1:30 PM. **Who this is for** Any local business owner who wants clearer marketing direction and real local relationships. Service businesses, retail, home services, professional services, online owners building local presence, anyone serious about being part of the Columbus business community. **Not the right fit if** You are here to pitch the room or recruit for an MLM. **Details** * Second Monday of every month * 12:00 to 1:30 PM * Good Cafe Easton, 4400 Easton Commons, Ste 150, Columbus, OH 43219 * Order lunch and drinks at the counter when you arrive * Free to attend, RSVP required, space is limited **About the host** Rita Suzanne is a local marketing strategist and the founder of Local Marketing Method. She runs Visibility is Profitability, the membership where local business owners build the system that keeps their phone ringing. Learn more at learnlocalmarketing.com.

It's entirely up to you! **What to Expect at the Intro Circle** \~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~ Near the beginning of the event (1:30 pm), we do a standup: * Organizer announcements, updates, and logistics Round 1 - (7 secs max): * Your name * What you're working on * What you can help others with Round 2: * Community events you wanna plug. If none, that's cool too. Round 3: * Job opportunities you're hiring for OR announce that you are looking for one. If none, that's cool. After the introduction circle, everything is self-organized! Feel free to work alone, pair up, attend one of our workshops/presentations, or mingle!

Highlights and Hidden Gems in SQL Server 2025 With so much emphasis on cloud data platforms and AI these days, SQL people can feel left behind by all the marketing hype. SQL Server 2025 was officially released in November of 2025, though, and contains a ton of improvements that will make our SQL Server deployments a bit faster, better, and more secure. There are even more improvements tucked into the release that never made a marketing blog or press release that you'll likely be learning about for the first time in this session! Join this session to learn about what makes your high availability a little more available, your performance a bit more performant, and your database more developer and app-friendly. Come spend an hour with SQL people talking SQL Server 2025 – the good, the "not quite ready for prime time", and the hidden awesomeness.

You can sleep in on the Sesquicentennial (observed), we’re shifting to the following Friday. But join the local UX community for a chat and some biscuits to catch up. If you were in CA for Figma Config, tell us all the lines and you can tell me how I can animate an SVG without coding it by hand, and why I’d even want to. Thanks to the team at Nationwide of supporting the group.

**Practical Curiosity: Learning from Everyday Data** How do we actually get better at utilizing our day-to-day data? Fancy dashboards and complex models might look nice and draw attention, but that’s not where most of us spend our time. In fact those shiny outputs frequently sit unused, while the real insights are drawn from the analyst’s daily practice. Sometimes it’s as simple and as powerful as noticing that a segment is shrinking, a channel is underused, or certain links keep getting all the clicks. There’s many different places that the spark of insight can come from, but you have to keep your head in the data and know where to look. In this session, we’ll explore real-world examples of how segmentation, testing, and click behavior can uncover practical digital marketing opportunities. You’ll leave with inspiration for your own use cases, along with a few simple ways to ask better questions, spot meaningful patterns, and make smarter decisions without overcomplicating it. **About Our Speaker:** [Elaine Armbruster](https://www.linkedin.com/in/elainearmbruster/) is a Director of Digital Experience at the [American Diabetes Association](https://diabetes.org/), where she focuses on using data and insights to create smarter, more effective digital experiences. A lifelong Columbus resident, she has built her career in email marketing and the broader digital user journey, and is finding she most enjoys working in the messy middle where systems, data, and big ideas don’t quite line up yet.
