Aperitivo “comunicativo”. Impara come lasciare davvero il segno 🎯
**Il tema della serata** 📌
Oggi comunicare non significa parlare di più, ma lasciare il segno, essere ricordati.
In un mondo saturo di contenuti (more often than not, generati dall’AI) ciò che conta davvero è la capacità di creare connessioni, emozioni ed empatia.
Un incontro per andare oltre le “tecniche preconfezionate” ed i “trucchetti”, che ci aiuterà a capire cosa rende un messaggio davvero memorabile. Per diventare leader migliori nel business e comunicatori più efficaci nella vita di tutti i giorni.
**Il nostro ospite 🎙️**
**Lapo De Carlo** — giornalista, scrittore, conduttore radio-TV e docente universitario di comunicazione alla Bicocca dal 2005. Una carriera costruita su microfoni aperti, platee esigenti e parole scelte con precisione chirurgica: dalla radio (RMC, Giornale Radio) alla TV (Telelombardia, Sportmediaset, Rai News), passando per La Ragione, Wall Street Italia e Cosmopolitan.
**Format e Agenda 📋**
L'evento è a **numero chiuso** — pochi posti, location giusta, dialogo vero.
* **18:45** · Apertura porte e benvenuto.
* **19:00 - 19.50** · Intervento dell'ospite in forma aperta. Nessun copione, nessuna lezione, solo conversazione autentica e dialogo diretto con l'audience.
* **A seguire** · Networking libero
🥂 *Prima consumazione e light aperitivo inclusi. Ulteriori drink e food disponibili alla carta.*
***
Ti aspettiamo per una serata densa di idee, spunti inaspettati e persone nuove che vale la pena conoscere. 💡
*L'unica cosa che ti chiediamo: puntualità. Per rispetto di Lapo, della location e delle altre persone che hanno scelto di partecipare. See you soon! 👋*

## What we’re about
Buongiorno a tutti. 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.

**🕒 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.

Inside the Modern Threat Landscape: How Attackers Weaponize Trust
What does a trojan look like when it has over 900k+ combined installs and a Forbes write-up? Exactly like a legitimate Chrome extension.
This session presents a technical dissection of two Chrome extensions, each with over one million active installations — that functioned as trojans in production environments, evading detection while operating through entirely legitimate browser APIs. These were not obscure tools. They were widely trusted, actively recommended, and covered by mainstream press before their malicious behavior was fully understood. We will walk through the actual source code of both extensions, showing precisely how the malicious functionality was constructed, concealed, and executed at scale.
This analysis anchors a broader examination of how modern compromises actually succeed. Drawing on aggregated real-world incident data, we identify the technique categories currently delivering the highest adversary return, and why they keep working. Spoiler: it's rarely a zero-day. It's trust.
The Chrome extension deep-dive will cover:
* Line-by-line source analysis of how malicious functionality was embedded within working, useful software
* Which browser permission scopes were abused, and why a million users — and their IT teams — didn't see it coming
* The behavioral and structural indicators that distinguish a trojan extension from a legitimate one, and how to operationalize detection around them
This session closes with a practical defensive prioritization framework built around observed attacker behavior: which mitigations are measurably reducing risk in production environments, which are consuming budget without impact, and a scoring methodology your team and leadership can apply immediately.
**Source material:** Primary analysis of extension source code, corroborated by reporting from Forbes and other established outlets.
**What this is not:** A vendor pitch, a speculative threat narrative, or a surface-level breach retrospective.
**Who should attend:** Security architects, AppSec and cloud security practitioners, blue team leads, threat hunters, browser security practitioners, and security leaders responsible for prioritizing risk and investment decisions.
Building Scalable Customer Identity Resolution Pipelines on AWS Using AI
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.
