17:30-18:00 * Doors open * Welcome words by Zalando & WiMLDS 18:00- 18:40 **'Deploying AI agents at scale'** by **Valentina Halasi** **Abstract:** You've built AI agents with a framework like CrewAI or LangGraph. They work great locally. Now what? This talk covers the real infrastructure challenges of deploying multi-agent systems: handling long-running executions, managing stateful workflows, versioning deployments, and debugging complex agent behavior in production. Learn the steps from "works on my laptop" to production-ready, and discover why most teams end up building the same infrastructure stack. I'll wrap up with a live demo showing how to deploy agents with a single command, stream execution in real-time, manage secrets securely, auto-scale to handle concurrent runs, and version deployments with instant rollbacks, without building the full infrastructure yourself. 18:45-19:30 **'AI at scale in practice: Zalando Assistant'** by **Katya Mirylenka** **Abstract:** As artificial intelligence transforms the fashion industry, multimodal AI agents are stepping up to deliver deeply personalized shopping experiences. Using the Zalando Assistant (ZA) as a real-world case study, this talk dives into the practicalities of building and operating these complex systems at scale. We will explore why the e-commerce industry is moving beyond simple chatbots to sophisticated LLM-powered agents and how ZA processes complex user interactions to elevate the customer journey. Finally, we will unpack the behind-the-scenes technical hurdles of large-scale AI, including optimizing search and retrieval under heavy load, refining LLM evaluations, and handling complex product data. 19:30-20:30 Networking & Mingling

Ergänzende Infos: Salsa! Kein anderer Tanz hat in den letzten Jahren eine derart steile Erfolgskurve aufs Parkett gelegt. Die Salsa weckt Sehnsüchte nach der Karibik und versprüht wahre Lebensfreude. Salsa wird paarweise getanzt. Ein Partner führt, der andere wird geführt. Bei uns werden hauptsächlich Kurse im kubanischen Stil unterrichtet, der Salsa Cubana, welcher seinen Ursprung in Kuba hat. Die kubanische Salsa wirkt eher spielerisch, rhythmisch und lebendig und setzt sich aus unterschiedlichen lateinamerikanischen Rhythmen und Tänzen zusammen. Das wesentliche Merkmal des kubanischen Stils sind die Drehungen des Tanzpaares um einen gemeinsamen Mittelpunkt und das Kernstück des Salsa Cubana, die Rueda de Casino. Der Name Rueda rührt daher, dass alle beteiligten Paare einen Kreis bilden, wobei sie jeweils synchron die gleichen Figuren tanzen. Bedingt durch Partnerwechsel, die jeweils zu den getanzten Figuren gehören, dreht sich die Rueda bzw. das Rad. Der Kurs für blutige Anfänger oder für Leute, die sich mit den Basic-Elementen noch unsicher fühlen.

Dear All, This session is mainly for the people who want to learn kundalini yoga/meditation in a traditional way. Traditionally the master will transfer his/her kundalini energy to the student to activate his important chakras (energy centre) including Third Eye and Crown Chakra. The student can start to feel his/her Kundalini Energy is rising from their base of the spine and feeling the energy vibration(Consciousness) in the third eye (the space between the eyebrows) from the Kundalini Activation. This session is helpful for the beginners who want to learn simple yoga-meditation exercises also. This is a general session to experience your inner kundalini energy. But if you need proper kundalini activation(Shaktipat), then pre-registration is mandatory. **What is included in this session?** Simple stretching practices for Hip and Spine (not complicated, even beginners can do) Kundalini Breathing Techniques Sound Energy (Mantra) Meditation Energy Healing Techniques Formal Kundalini Activation (optional and only for pre-registered people) Chakra Meditation Yoga Nidra (Relaxation) **Some of the benefits of Kundalini Energy Activation are:** Keeps the body healthy Mind attains its natural peaceful state, so the meditation becomes easy. Breathing pattern will be harmonized Stress release and peace Clear & sharp intellect More intuition Inner happiness Clairvoyance and Clairvision and to the ultimate SELF realization (which will lead to the blissful state - our true state) with enough years of practise **DONATION BASIS** **About the Teacher who conducts this session:** The kundalini wisdom teacher Jayaprakash is from India. He is practising kundalini yoga for the since 2005 under the guidance of Self Realized Indian Master "GuruMahan". He is teaching kundalini yoga since 2008 as part of a non-profit organization "Maha Shakthi Yogam Switzerland". He teaches Yoga/Meditation/Pranic Healing/Stress Relief courses in various places of Germany and Switzerland. He is the authorized kundalini yoga wisdom teacher from UPF(India) to give kundalini initiations (Shaktipat) with the Grace and Protection of his Master. All these events are conducted for non-profit purpose. Donations are collected on behalf of Swiss non-profit organization (Verein) "Maha Shakthi Yogam - Switzerland" **Eligibility:** Anyone can attend the session even if they don't have previous yoga/Meditation experiences. **Dress:** Wear a comfortable dress if possible yoga dress. We provide the yoga mat. **Please RSVP only you are really interested and coming ! Limited Seats !** **About Kundalini Shaktipat:** In every human being there is a source of natural energy that the yogis call the kundalini. In order to evolve in the yogic path, no matter what our path, the kundalini must be active. For most of us, the kundalini lies dormant at the bottom of the spine in the base chakra known as the Muladhar. When it awakens, it ascends through the chakras until it reaches the highest chakra, the Sahasrar. When that occurs, we merge with our True Self and attain SELF realization (our true nature). Shaktipat is the transfer of spiritual energy from the teacher to the student in order to awaken the kundalini. This process is compared to lighting one candle with another that is already lit and glowing. When the teacher is connected with the fully realized master and the energy is completely within his or her control, shaktipat initiation ensures that the student’s energy will remain active and stable. "Electricity is present everywhere, but there can be light only when the switch is turned on. Similarly the true master manifests the consciousness in the disciple through shaktipat.” **HAPPINESS is our TRUE Nature, which comes from within not from outside !**

*Strategien & Werkzeuge für zukunftsfähige Geschäftsmodelle* Um innerhalb der planetaren Belastungsgrenzen zu leben und zu wirtschaften, sind Suffizienzstrategien unabdingbar. Dies stellt Unternehmen im Kontext eines Wachstumsparadigmas vor spannende Herausforderungen. Im BusinessLab analysieren wir diese aus verschiedenen Perspektiven und entwickeln Antworten auf die Fragen: Wie können Unternehmen zur Transition zu suffizienten - also ‘ressourcenleichten’ - Lebensstilen beitragen und inwiefern können sie selbst suffizient agieren? Mit welchen Strategien und Gouvernanz-Modellen können sie dabei profitabel bleiben, und wie profitieren sie gar selbst von Suffizienzstrategien? Gemeinsam mit Expert:innen aus Theorie & Praxis erkunden wir die Möglichkeiten unternehmerischen Handelns jenseits des Wachstumszwangs.

**AWS Community GameDay Europe is coming!** Strategy. Fun. Collaboration. We will join \~**50 User Groups across Europe** for a unique event: an **international, synchronized AWS Community GameDay**, powered by the European AWS community. 🧩 **A custom set of challenges makes this GameDay one of a kind** Get hands-on with **AI, security and cloud-native** challenges — no slides, no tutorials. A common scoreboard with global and local prices. Come with a friend, a team, or solo - we’ll form teams of **2 to 4 people on site**. **What is an AWS GameDay?** An AWS GameDay is a team-based, competitive learning experience that transforms cloud training into an immersive, high-energy event. Unlike traditional workshops where participants follow step-by-step instructions, GameDay drops teams into a live AWS environment with real infrastructure—often broken, misconfigured, or under attack—and challenges them to figure out solutions on their own. **What makes it a unique experience** * No step-by-step guides—teams must explore, experiment, and problem-solve * Real AWS accounts with actual running infrastructure (EC2, Lambda, S3, databases) * Time pressure creates urgency and forces prioritization decisions * Competitive leaderboard visible to all teams drives engagement * Points lost for poor decisions (overspending, downtime, security gaps) teach consequences **Format** Teams of 2-4 people compete over 2 hours. Each team receives access to their own AWS environment with pre-deployed infrastructure. **⚠️⚠️⚠️ BRING YOUR OWN LAPTOP ⚠️⚠️⚠️** Registration closing on March 13th!!! **Note:** Because there are some global limitations on the number of attendees, is better if you register before March 10th. **AGENDA** **📅** Tuesday, March 17th 🕔 17:00 Doors open ➖ 17:15 15-minutes session to get familiar with the AWS Web Console ➖ 17:45 Teams composition 🚀 18:00 Game starts! All locations connected live across Europe, we’ll kick off together, on time. 🎉 20:30 Global and local winners with prices 🍕🥤 Pizza and drinks offered during the event 📍 RedHat Office Switzerland (1St. Floor) **Compete live with AWS User Groups across Europe, all playing the same scenario at the same time.** Full list of locations: [https://www.awsgameday.eu/](https://www.awsgameday.eu/) **NOTE**: if you join our meetup group for the first time, remember also to reply to this event RSVP! **Attendees that didn't registered properly** providing the required information **cannot participate to the game** (we/AWS need time to prepare cloud environments)

The OWASP community is getting together for another meetup in March 2026! Join us for some security talks, good company, and a little Apéro. **Program:** **16:30** - **Doors open**: Grab a drink, meet old and new friends from the OWASP Switzerland community **17:00** - **Hello from OWASP Switzerland** **17:05 - Beyond the Buzzword: A Data-Driven Analysis of LLM-Generated Code Vulnerabilities -** (Rebecca Balebako, ZHAW) **18:05** - **(5min break)** **18:10- Swiss e-ID, Architecture and overcoming practical issues -** (Martin Scheck, Zühlke Engineering AG) **19:10 - Networking & Apéro**🍷- Grab a bite and chat with old and new friends **Talk Details:** **Beyond the Buzzword: A Data-Driven Analysis of LLM-Generated Code Vulnerabilities (Working Title, may change):** Can LLMs write more secure code than humans? Or are they better security reviewers? In this talk we discuss what data and measurements are needed to answer these questions. We will take a sceptical look at marketing claims regarding LLM benchmarks, describe attempts to define "secure code", and describe research measuring secure code generation. By the end of this talk you will be able to take a clear-eyed view of any benchmarks and claims that LLMs generate secure code. **Swiss e-ID, Architecture and overcoming practical issues (Working Titel and working Abstract, will change):** The Swiss e-ID, planned for release in late 2026, is based on decentralized identity (SSI) standards, offering strong security and privacy properties in theory. This talk provides a practical look at the e-ID, its ecosystem, and underlying standards, drawing on insights from a real-world project. We will assess its suitability for use cases such as identity verification and digital authentication, and discuss how it fits with existing identity and access management architectures and protocols. Attendees will gain a clear understanding of the ecosystem, security and privacy challenges, and practical considerations for applying the Swiss e-ID in real-world systems.
