**This week's venue: Beer People \| Lázár utca 7\, Budapest 1065** We hold a bi-weekly workshop to encourage creative writing where we share pieces of creative writing and solicit feedback from the other attendees. Some members also use the forum to find others with whom to collaborate, edit work, and/or brainstorm plot, themes, settings, and so forth. And from time to time, we participate in competitions, recite and/or offer material for events organized by other groups. At the moment there is no prompt for this particular meetup. Instead, writers are invited to submit something they have (or are working on) or to craft a short story specifically for the event. Of course, there's no pressure to submit something. Many participants are interested in hearing ideas, questioning the authors, and examining style and technique. Often, we explore other published works as well. The submission guidelines are as follows: 1. limit the piece to 850 words (to give enough time for any other submissions being read at the event); 2. make the text available (though you can read it aloud) for the other attendees. Many authors bring a few printed copies, others post their work in the comments of the meetup; 3. have a question in mind for the group about the submission; and, 4. If offering something from a longer work, be prepared to give a little bit of background first.

En definitiva, se trata de conocernos como personas para entendernos como escritores. No importa si has escrito diez novelas, cuatro cuentos o el precioso título de un poema sin versos. Aquí todo aspirante a juntaletras es bienvenido.

We’re back with the third edition of the Budapest Databricks Meetup, a gathering for Databricks users, data engineers, analytics professionals, AI practitioners, and everyone interested in modern data platforms. This time, we’ll explore how **metadata** is becoming a key driver of **enterprise AI**, how **lineage** can help teams better understand KPI changes across BI environments, and how Databricks engineers can better navigate and integrate with the **SAP ecosystem**. 📍 **Location:** Agora Park, Hub 3, 4th floor (Árbóc utca 1–3, 1133 Budapest) 📅 **Date:** May 27\, 2026 \| 18:00–20:30 \(detailed agenda below\) 🤝 **Organizer:** Abylon Consulting 🍕 **Catering:** Pizza, snacks & beer **Beyond the Data: How Metadata is Reshaping Enterprise AI with Databricks** 🔹 Miguel Angel de Luna Gomez – Practice Lead EMEA, Databricks Enterprise data has always been at the heart of understanding how businesses really work. But things are changing. Today, it’s not just about the data itself, but also the metadata around it — and that shift is opening the door to a whole new generation of AI capabilities. In this session, Miguel will explore how organizations can accelerate their AI journey by combining Databricks with existing enterprise data landscapes. He’ll also introduce emerging patterns in enterprise AI, including how users can interact with enterprise data using natural language and what these capabilities look like in practice. **Why Did the KPI Change? End-to-End Lineage from Databricks to Power BI** 🔹 Edina Vedelek & Olivér Vetési – Abylon Consulting A practical look at how to cut through dashboard confusion by connecting backend SQL dependencies with Power BI reporting layers. Crossing the bridge between the two, thanks to Databrick AI (agent) and some Power BI tricks. This session will explore how metadata-driven lineage helps teams: ➡️ Assess downstream impact faster ➡️ Reduce dependency chaos between engineering and reporting teams ➡️ Move from guesswork to clear answers ➡️ Replicable automated information retrieval **SAP Data Meets Databricks: A Data Engineer’s Perspective** 🔹 Gábor Takács – Abylon Consulting In this session, we’ll explore how to work with SAP data from a Databricks data engineer’s perspective. We’ll cover common integration patterns, typical challenges, and practical ways to extract and make SAP data usable in a modern data platform. 🗓️ **Agenda** 17:30–18:00 — Arrival & Registration 18:00–18:30 — SAP Data Landscape from a Databricks Engineer’s Perspective 18:30–19:00 — Beyond the Data: How Metadata is Reshaping Enterprise AI with Databricks 19:00–19:30 — Why Did the KPI Change?

**The 2026 elections are over.** The dust is settling. And 2027’s new "EU Inc." company model is staring us down. When big structural changes happen, it is completely normal to put them on the back burner. You have a business to run. But the upcoming shifts in Hungary and the EU might actually change how you operate. We are heading to KLUSTER to figure out exactly how this affects us, without the panic or the guesswork. We are splitting the night in two. First, Bence Gajdácsi (CEO of Gajdácsi Flakon Kft.) tackles the macro reality of Hungary's post-election landscape and the new EU Inc. He will break down what these legal shifts mean for your business structure so you can adapt before the rest of the market even catches on. Second, Nándor Fehér (Content Marketing Specialist) reveals the steps of building a predictable client acquisition machine with no technical skills. Even if you genuinely hate marketing, you will leave knowing how to spot the psychological hooks others and your competitors use. **The Agenda & What You'll Learn** * **17:45:** Arrive, grab a drink, and connect. * **18:10 – 18:15:** Event Kickoff. * **18:15 – 18:35: Hungary's shift & a new EU structure** * Bence breaks down two major shifts: Hungary’s new reality under a new government, and an early peek at the 2027 EU Inc. This new European company structure aims to cut bureaucracy and accelerate cross-border growth. You get an honest look at how to position your business for both. * **18:35 – 18:55: Automating Client Acquisition** * Imagine a vending machine that turns a €1 coin into a €2 coin. How many times would you use it? Nándor will show you how to build that exact machine. In marketing and sales, this is called a 'funnel', a simple sequence of steps that naturally guides a complete stranger to buying your offer. You will learn to spot competitor patterns and walk away with a clear idea of which exact system actually makes sense for your own business. * **18:55 – 20:00:** Genuine networking & conversations with quality food and drinks. * **20:00 onwards:** We head to a nearby bar as usual. **Location** We'll be hosting at the fantastic **KLUSTER Coworking** space. **Who Is This For?** This series of presentations is for freelancers, founders, and open-minded people in Budapest. As you might know, the presentations are really just an excuse to get us all in the same room. Join real conversations with a real community of curious people who are navigating the exact same challenges you are. **The Legal Bit** As usual, we’ll be taking photos and videos throughout the night. By showing up, you consent to being in them. Thanks for reading, see you on the 29th (of May)! Bence & Nándi

We will cover how to think through inbound, outbound, and free marketing channels, how to choose the right channel for your goals, how to run the numbers before you spend, how to allocate the right budget, how to launch the campaign correctly, and how to evaluate and track performance so you can make better decisions moving forward. **SCALE Framework:** **S –** Select the right channel **C –** Calculate the numbers **A –** Allocate the budget **L –** Launch the campaign **E –** Evaluate and track it **What We’ll Cover** * How to get off-market deals through direct-to-seller marketing * How to stop guessing and start reverse engineering your marketing * The difference between inbound, outbound, and free marketing channels * How to choose the right channel for your business and market * How to calculate the numbers before launching * How to allocate a budget based on goals, not emotion * How to launch and track a campaign the right way * How to create more consistent and predictable deal flow **Date:** May 28, 2026 (Thursday) **Time:** 6 - 8pm EST **Location:** Ohio Brewing Company, 421 E 2nd Ave, Columbus, OH 43201 **Save Your Seat** → https://www.eventbrite.com/e/how-to-get-off-market-deals-with-direct-to-seller-marketing-tickets-1987845260686?aff=cicmeetupapp **FREE DRINKS & FOOD PROVIDED!** **About Columbus Investors Club** The Columbus Investors Club is a local meetup for real estate investors, aspiring investors, contractors, vendors, lenders, realtors, and other professionals who want to grow in the Columbus market.
