Building a great product isn’t just about adding new features. It is about having the discipline and clarity to decide exactly what not to build. At this meetup, we will dive into how product leaders make high-stakes prioritization decisions in two entirely opposite environments: a massive global enterprise and a fast-moving, VC-backed AI startup. **The Speakers & Contexts** **Andraž Zvonar,** Founder & CEO at KatalistAI – A fast-growing AI platform that automates professional video production from script to screen. The company recently secured $1.5 million in VC funding from South Central Ventures and already boasts over 300,000 registered users worldwide. Andraž has been a product manager before starting KatalistAI. **Matej Kern Meglič**, Product Manager at Teads – Representing a global media and adtech giant operating one of its core European engineering hubs right here in Ljubljana. With over 40 Product Managers collaborating worldwide, Matej will share how they manage massive corporate roadmaps and balance endless competing demands without creating organizational deadlock. **What We Will Cover** * We’ll skip the textbook theories and dive straight into the messy reality of product operations: * Planning vs. Chaos: Structured roadmaps vs. early-stage startup agility. * The Reality of a Pivot: What shifting directions actually looks like under pressure. * Operations & Legacy Debt: Managing technical debt, iteration speed, and structured agile vs. pure ad-hoc teamwork. * The Art of Saying NO: Standing your ground against corporate stakeholders, enterprise clients, or demanding VC investors. **Event Details** Where: Gecko HRM, Letališka 32, Ljubljana When: 16 June, 18.00-21.00 Vibe: Fireside chat, open audience Q&A, and informal networking with pizza and drinks.

Ciao! Dopo WordCamp Torino e WordCamp Europe abbiamo fatto del nostro meglio per organizzare il nostro incontro, anche se con un po' di ritardo. L'appuntamento di giugno è per **martedì 16 alle 19**, **sempre al Politecnico di Milano ma in una nuova sede:** **Via Edoardo Bassini, 6 / Edificio 41** **Link Google Maps:** https://maps.app.goo.gl/WxQp1JNsqSXWRDRQ8 Ed ecco il talk di questo mese: **WordPress 7.0 ed il suo nuovo client AI** I pericoli del nuovo Client AI di WordPress: "da grandi poteri derivano grandi responsabilità", ma qui non tutti sembrano rendersene conto. La decisione su quale modello usare e quale tetto di token imporre è delegata interamente al plugin, via codice, senza alcun limite globale lato amministratore. Tradotto: un plugin scritto con leggerezza, che non limita i token in uscita o preferisce di default un modello costoso, può bruciare cifre importanti a tua insaputa, e te ne accorgi solo leggendo la fattura. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- Saremo in diretta streaming Non puoi partecipare di persona? Noi non ti giudicheremo! :) Se vuoi, puoi seguirci anche in diretta streaming su YouTube. Il link sarà visibile solo una volta che avrai fatto la tua iscrizione all'evento. Durante la diretta, se vorrai, potrai intervenire anche tu usando una webcam e un microfono per dire la tua: basterà usare il link che verrà fornito via chat. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- In breve, ecco come sarà organizzata la serata: 19:00 Benvenuto + networking 19:20 Panel (di circa 50 minuti) 20:10 Domande e risposte 20:30 Fine; Chi vuole può continuare il networking in un bar o pizzeria vicino al luogo dell’evento. All’inizio dell’incontro faremo il conteggio per prenotare: per non creare disguidi conferma la presenza solo se sei sicuro di venire. Networking significa che ci sarà tempo per chiacchierare con chi partecipa e fare amicizia. Potresti trovare una persona interessante, un futuro cliente, un futuro fornitore o un nuovo partner di lavoro, chi può dirlo? Non riesci a venire, o devi dare la tua disdetta? Nessun rancore, sarà per la prossima. Ti chiediamo solo di farci sapere 24 ore prima così - liberiamo il tuo posto per altre persone. Vuoi essere speaker? Beh, nulla di più facile: Compila il modulo [cliccando qui](https://wpmilano.org/speaker-form/). Ti risponderemo per fornirti tutti i dettagli. Ci vediamo lì! 😉

An evening dedicated to backend engineering. On 17th June, we’re hosting a backend-focused meetup at the Outfit7 office in Ljubljana featuring two talks centered around scalability, maintainability, and data infrastructure in production environments. 📅 **Date:** 17th June 2026 ⏰ **Time:** 6:00–8:00 PM 📍 **Location:** Ameriška ulica 8\, 1000 Ljubljana \| 2nd floor 🎟 **Admission:** Free 🍕 **Food and drinks:** Provided after the talks **🗣️ Big Data, Bigger Lessons** *Tilen Kavčič - Senior Software Engineer @ Outfit7* 5 billion events a day. 200 million monthly players. Two clouds, one data team. Tilen will walks us through how Outfit7 built a data platform that had to keep up with one of the world's most-played mobile game portfolios, covering ingestion at scale, pipeline orchestration, the move to dbt, and what it actually means to run a parallel data warehouse on Huawei Cloud for Chinese users. Practical war stories. No architecture astronauts. **🗣️ Maintainability is a Feeling** *Miha Medven – Senior Engineering Manager @ Sportradar* Introducing new technologies into an existing stack is rarely just a technical problem. The real challenge is building confidence: confidence in operability, debugging, scalability, onboarding, and long-term maintenance. This talk explores practical ways to evaluate, introduce, and operationalize new technologies in backend systems without turning your stack into a liability. **👥 Who should come?** Open to developers, engineers, architects, students, and anyone interested in backend technologies. Expect discussions around scaling systems, introducing new technologies responsibly, operating data platforms in production, and the engineering tradeoffs behind it all. All sessions will be in English 🇬🇧 See you there 👋

Let’s meet and wander the galleries! General admission on Sundays is free.

Join the Columbus AI community for a special event. **Battle of the Personal Agents** is your chance to see what people are actually building with AI agents and personal automation systems. Whether you’re running OpenClaw, Hermes, or a completely custom solution, bring your agent and show the community how it works. We’re interested in real-world implementations: the problems your agent solves, how you use it day-to-day, how it’s hosted and managed, how you built it, and why you’ve chosen to keep using it. Live demonstrations are encouraged, so be prepared to show your code, architecture, workflows, and your agent performing real tasks. This is less about polished presentations and more about sharing practical experience, comparing approaches, and learning from one another. If you’d like to present, please contact Chris Slee (via meetup) before the event so we can allocate enough time for everyone’s demonstrations. Come ready to show what you’ve built, discover what others are doing, and maybe find a few ideas worth taking home. Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.

Over a billion documents processed. Millions of Veterans impacted. Hundreds of thousands of employee hours saved. Faster decisions. Greater accuracy. More benefits in the hands of our disabled Veterans. We created Smart Search, the world’s largest consumer of Amazon Textract, right when GenAI began reshaping what’s possible. Since then, we’ve built a suite of AI‑driven solutions that transform this data into real, measurable outcomes—accelerating benefits decisions for our Nation’s Veterans. Join us for a focused conversation on how an outcome‑driven approach to AI is helping us boost accuracy, streamline workflows, and deliver faster results for those who have served. This is a follow up to the AWS re:Invent 2023 "Intelligent Document Processing with Gen AI for Public Sector" presentation.

*Sorry for the 2 month break but I had to deal with some family member health issues, but we are now back!!* **LOCATION - THE DAILY GROWLER -** **2812 Fishinger Rd, Upper Arlington, OH 43221** Over the years, we’ve heard two requests constantly: 1. A place that was quieter and possibly private. 2. “I wish they accepted Bitcoin.” We’ve finally found a solution to these requests with The Daily Growler. We’ll have access to their private room, and you’ll be able to pay your tab with Bitcoin. Join us for a fun and relaxed social event! Enjoy delicious food and drinks as we chat about the latest news in the Bitcoin world. Everyone is welcome, whether you're looking for guidance, have questions, or just want to meet like-minded people. These social evenings are a great opportunity to make new friends and enhance your experience at the larger events throughout the year. We look forward to seeing you there!
