Dear Community, after so many workshops, and a breathtaking Hamburg Summit, it's time to greet the sunshine and carry on the spirit of our beloved city! We have three amazing talks prepared for you this time! Thanks to our loyal host **Bonial International GmbH** \- we look forward meeting you all on the date\! =================================================== 18:15 - Warming up and networking chat 18:30 - Intro by AWS UG Berlin & Bonial 18:45 - 19:10 - **Alexey Grigorev // Zero-Trust AWS Access for Humans and AI Agents** Alexey will share two real-world stories about managing AWS access securely outside of AWS itself. First, he will show how he organized a hands-on workshop where participants used personal laptops and GitHub Codespaces to provision infrastructure in their AWS account — without ever receiving long-lived AWS credentials. They needed something similar to EC2 instance profiles, but for arbitrary external environments. Then he will talk about AI agents and autonomous tooling. Alexey's agents run on non-AWS servers with intentionally restricted permissions. Sometimes they need temporary access to AWS sandbox environments, but he doesn’t want permanent credentials on those machines. Alexey will show an approach for granting short-lived, revocable AWS access on demand. 19:10 - 19:35 - **Surjeet Singh Sachdeva// A Journey From Five Certification Reschedules to AWS Golden Jacket and AWS Ambassador** In this session, Surjeet will share his journey of working through the AWS certification path, leading to the AWS Golden Jacket, along with the practical steps, discipline, and consistency required to reach it. He will also explain what the Golden Jacket represents in the AWS ecosystem, including the recognition, credibility, and deeper access it brings within the community, and how professionals can approach the certification journey in a structured way. 19:35 - 20:00 - Networking break with food, snacks and drinks 20:00 - 20:30 - **Abdul Wahid // Deep Dive into Bedrock to Implement HITL Architecture** With the help of AWS Bedrock and his personal domain knowledge in the field on banking, Abdul Wahid will demonstrate The Human-in-the-loop (HITL) architecture by adding a layer of foundation model in the process to analyse the fraudulent transaction and return a confidence score. If the confidence score is below the defined threshold, then the system will alert the human to make the decision rather than letting AI to make mistakes. 20:30 - 20:50 - Common Q&A Round for all speakers. =================================================== **Very Important: There is no "waitlist" for our regular sessions.** However, there are limited seats available.

Hello fellow Symfonians, we are thrilled to announce something we've never done before: a **Live Code Review** session! This time it's not about slides and talks – it's about your code. Submit a snippet beforehand and we'll review it together as a group, live on stage. Expect honest feedback, fresh perspectives, and plenty of "ah, that's how you could do it" moments. This time we are hosted by **c-base** (Rungestrasse 20 10179 Berlin). Come by and enjoy an evening of learning, networking, and socializing with fellow Symfony and PHP developers. **Agenda:** 18:30: Doors open 19:00: Welcome and Introduction 19:20: **Part 1: "Live Code Review - Bring Your Own Code"** **by Stefan Priebsch & Sebastian Bergmann** 19:50: Break & Snack 20:00: **Part 2: "Live Code Review - Bring Your Own Code"** **by Stefan Priebsch & Sebastian Bergmann** 20:40: Socializing **Event Details:** **"Live Code Review - Bring Your Own Code"** by Stefan Priebsch & Sebastian Bergmann When Sebastian Bergmann and Stefan Priebsch take the stage together, expect an evening focused not on theory, but on the craft of building good software. As founders of [thePHP.cc,](http://thePHP.cc,) they have influenced the conversation around code quality, testability, refactoring, and sustainable architecture in the PHP community for many years. At this Symfony User Group meeting, they bring that experience to a special format: a public code review of code submitted by attendees. Together, they will look at real-world examples from everyday development, share direct feedback on structure, readability, testability, and maintainability, and show how even long-lived codebases can be improved step by step. This is a great opportunity to see how experienced practitioners approach code, which common issues they spot quickly, and which improvements can have the biggest impact in practice. If you would like feedback on your own code, bring it along. Please make sure to remove any credentials or personal data before sharing it publicly. The feedback will be constructive, respectful, and focused entirely on improving the code. Don't miss this insightful event, engaging discussions, and networking opportunities. We can't wait to see you at the June Symfony User Group! If you have any questions or accessibility requirements, please reach out to us. Also, if your company wants to be the next host for the User Group, just let us know!

# Kaleidoscope — at Monbijou Theater ## Lights Up! Berlin's Sell-Out Unscripted Musical **Monbijou Amphitheater · Monbijoupark, Berlin** **Doors: 5:30 PM · Show: 6:00 PM · Running time: 90 minutes** **Performed in English · Amphitheater · No interval** *** There is no better place to watch a musical get born than a wooden amphitheater on a summer evening in Berlin. Lights Up! is Kaleidoscope's fully unscripted musical: a complete story, with original songs, live music, and characters that didn't exist before tonight. The ensemble steps on stage with nothing prepared. The audience gives them a suggestion. And ninety minutes later, a musical ends that will never be performed again. A professional live band plays every song for the first time. The ensemble builds every scene from scratch. Nobody has rehearsed. Nobody has a script. Every seat at Monbijou Theater looks onto an open stage surrounded by one of Berlin's most loved outdoor spaces. **Performed in English. All nationalities welcome.** **A ticket reservation is required!** [TICKETS HERE.](https://www.yesticket.org/event/en/kaleidoscope-the-unscripted-musical-at-monbijou-14-06-26/) *** ### ★★★★★ *"Riotous joy"* — UK Theatre Network *Since their debut at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, Kaleidoscope has toured the UK and Europe — and kept finding new ways to make the unrepeatable look effortless.*

What happens when PMs stop watching engineers code — and start shipping themselves? You’ve probably heard the stories. Maybe you’ve already tried it in your own company. AI is changing how product teams build, collaborate, and ship — fast. Join us for an evening with product leaders sharing real-world experience building and shipping customer-facing features with AI, not just internal demos and experiments. We’ll talk about PMs opening PRs, non-devs contributing directly to production, and what actually changes when the whole team gets closer to the codebase. This event is designed for Product Managers and Product Leaders who want to understand how product roles, collaboration, and development processes are evolving in the AI era. **Agenda** 18:15 – Doors open for snacks, drinks, and networking 19:00 – Welcome from ProductTank Berlin 19:10 – Opening the PR is just the beginning, Dmitry Gorshkov 19:40 – What happened when we let non-devs into the codebase, Elena Berendeeva 20:10 – Networking 21:30 – Event ends Please note: - Please bring your IDs as you’ll need it when entering the venue. - The event is RSVP only: to enter, you must RSVP here on Meetup. - We'd like to capture the event with photographs for promotional purposes, such as sharing on LinkedIn after the event. If you have any concerns or preferences regarding this, please feel free to let us know beforehand. **Opening the PR is just the beginning** Dmitry will show how to go deep into the codebase as a PM and make it worth the effort. Crafting code is time consuming, so should PMs code instead of doing PM work? Absolutely. But you must come prepared. About the speaker [Dmitry Gorshkov](https://www.linkedin.com/in/dmitrygorshkov?utm_source=share_via&utm_content=profile&utm_medium=member_android) is a lead product manager at Finom, a Dutch fintech superapp for small businesses. Dmitry has shipped successful products at N26, Taxfix and Cut the Rope, among others - and has more than a decade of product management experience. **What happened when we let non-devs into the codebase** A year ago, we let PMs, designers, and QA contribute directly to our existing codebase using AI. What followed wasn’t just faster shipping – it was a quiet shift in how our team made decisions, handled ownership, and thought about their roles. This is that story. About the speaker [Elena Berendeeva](https://www.linkedin.com/in/berendeeva-elena?utm_source=share_via&utm_content=profile&utm_medium=member_android) is a PM at JetBrains who spent the last few years building 0-to-1 products – through pivots, sunsets, and a lot of uncertainty. Her most recent product is Matter, an AI prototyping tool that her team – designers, QA, and engineers – used to ship directly to production. She explores AI-native workflows and the evolving role of PMs in agentic product development.

The topic for June is "Roadtrip" Speak Easy: true stories, told live. The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast. Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect. The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!

**The Behavior Gap: Where Products Win or Lose** Teams today have more data than ever, and yet many still struggle to understand why customers adopt, engage with, or abandon their products. Teams sprint, ship faster, and chase more signals… all while metrics stall and confidence drops. The missing piece isn’t more data. It’s often the behavioral insight between the metrics, explaining why the numbers move in the first place. Dashboards can tell you what customers did, but understanding why they did it (and how to influence what they do next) requires a deeper blend of insights. This session is about closing that gap. Drawing from real-world experience designing and scaling products as [ZoCo Design](https://zocodesign.com/)’s CEO, [Lacey](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) will share how to cut through the noise and identify the insights that actually change behavior—moving people, and moving metrics. You’ll learn: * Why understanding customer behavior is a quant and qual challenge * How to spot the signals that actually predict behavior change * Where AI accelerates insight, and where it creates distraction * How to get meaningfully closer to customers, without adding more tools This talk reframes how to evaluate performance and identify what levers actually improve it, helping your team to make smarter bets with greater confidence. Every meaningful outcome is driven by behavior change. And when you know how to design for behavior, you stop guessing, and start building things that work. **About Our Speaker** [Lacey Picazo](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) is the Founder and CEO of ZoCo, a healthcare product studio that turns complex, high-stakes ideas into products that drive real-world adoption. She partners with healthcare organizations to uncover critical care delivery insights, focus product strategy through behavior design, and build solutions that patients and providers actually use.
