Quantum Computing

**Um was geht es dieses mal?** Dieses Mal haben wir zwei Talks für euch! **KI in der BIG direkt gesund - Von der Vision zur Realität - Stephan Rex (BIG direkt gesund)** BIG direkt gesund zeigt in dieser Präsentation, wie die strategische Einführung von Künstlicher Intelligenz im Unternehmen umgesetzt wird. Im Fokus stehen die Rolle des KI-Boards, das Architektur-Zielbild und die ersten praktischen Anwendungsfälle. Die Inhalte geben Einblicke in Erfahrungen aus Pilotprojekten und verdeutlichen, welche Faktoren für eine erfolgreiche Implementierung entscheidend sind. **F\*ck Feature Branches - Felix Fischer (codecentric AG)** Direkt auf Main pushen – das klingt ziemlich gruselig. Wie sollen wir nur ohne PRs und asynchrone, ineffiziente Code Reviews Kontrolle über unsere Kollegen ausüben? In diesem Talk werden wir die Geheimnisse des Trunk-Based-Development lüften. Wir wollen herausfinden, warum die angestaubten Wege der Software-Entwicklung hoffnungslos veraltet sind. Lerne durch Feature Flags, Dark Launches, synchrone Code Reviews und Pair-/ Mob-Programming Dich vom Drama der Feature Branches zu verabschieden! **Hybrides Setup!** Wir freuen uns, euch bei uns in den Räumen der codecentric AG in Dortmund willkommen zu heißen. Vor Ort versorgen wir euch mit Snacks und Getränken und freuen uns gleichzeitig über interessante Diskussionen und einen guten Austausch. Für alle, die es nicht zu uns ins Office schaffen, werden wir das Meetup Hybrid durchführen. Der Stream beginnt ca. 10 Minuten später, damit wir vor Ort ausreichend Möglichkeit für persönliches Kennenlernen haben. Den Live-Stream findet ihr auf dem [YouTube-Channel](https://www.youtube.com/@codecentricAG) der codecentric AG. **Anreise**: Per Zug: Vom Dortmunder HBF sind es ca. 10 Minuten zu Fuß. Mit dem Auto: Rund um das Office gibt es einige Parkflächen, dazu befinden sich in dem Parkhaus der Thier-Galerie weitere Parkplätze.

We sit on cash, waiting for a correction or a better entry point, fearing that buying now means buying at the top. But is this fear based on data or emotion? Does waiting for a dip actually protect your capital, or does it simply guarantee a loss against inflation? This session is a structured, open discussion designed to give you the frameworks to separate the market headlines from the evidence surrounding real long-term wealth building. **🧭 Format of the Event** This is a casual, discussion-based gathering with no long presentations. We'll sit around the table, and your host Romain will kick things off with a 10-minute introduction to his core framework for **"Investing at All-Time Highs: Trap or Opportunity?"** This is your opportunity to move beyond the fear of a crash and discuss the real-world evidence on "Time in the Market vs. Timing the Market." **Recommended Preparation** To get the most out of our discussion, I recommend looking at a long-term chart of the S&P 500 (1980–2026) and noticing how many "All-Time Highs" were simply stepping stones to higher prices. * **Continue the Conversation:** For more content on building evidence-based portfolios, you can follow me on LinkedIn here: **[Romain Lucas](https://www.linkedin.com/in/romain-f-lucas/)** **👥 Who Can Join?** Everyone is welcome. This discussion will be especially valuable if you are: * Sitting on a pile of cash, waiting for the "right moment" to enter the market. * An investor who is worried that the current market is "too expensive" or in a bubble. * A professional who wants to base their financial future on robust data, not fear-mongering headlines. **📌 Practical Info** * **🗓️ Date:** Tuesday, February 10th, 2026 at 18:30 * **🗣️ Language:** The event will be in English. * **📍 Location:** **Hotel Le Place d'Armes** (18 Place d'Armes, Luxembourg). *The bar is hidden at the back. Ask at reception for directions if you are unsure.* * **🍻 Drinks:** Drinks are self-paid at the venue bar. * **👥 Limited Seats:** Please RSVP so we can manage space. If you can no longer make it, please cancel your reservation to free up your spot for someone on the waitlist.

A hilarious show about dating and failing, with some of the best comedians in town. We dated all the red flags, so YOU won't have to! The show is fun, playful and when the audience is up for it, it can get a bit unhinged too. Anna Ampatziani and her comedy friends gathered their crazy dating stories to give you an unexpected and very funny show that everyone can relate with. Treat yourself with an hour of laughter, while they tell you all about love, failure, and everything in between. According to those who saw her live, her stories hook you until the end, and she makes you laugh about things, you never thought you'd laugh about. The show takes place at the hidden "Salle New Jazzland" right next to the central train station. It's a cozy atmosphere with vinyls and vintage posters covering the walls. You can enjoy a cocktail or a meal à la carte. If you're coming alone, don't worry, you'll feel like you are among friends. Doors open at 7PM, show starts at 8PM Entry to the show is free with a one-drink minimum requirement.

**⚡ AI & Coffee – In-Person Meetup in Luxembourg** Since the community has been growing, we’re hosting the next event on Sunday 15th Februara from 15h00-17h00 in Updown Bar (Downstairs) Based on the great feedback last time, feel free to bring your laptops if you’d like to show your work. People were very open to sharing approaches and projects, which sparked some truly deep conversations. Looking forward to meeting you all again, and also welcoming those who couldn’t make it last time. AI is moving so fast that it’s hard to keep up alone. The best way to make sense of it is by meeting others, exchanging ideas, and hearing fresh perspectives.

Bring your curiosity and an open mind — and let’s build one of the most exciting AI communities in the area.

Let’s meet on **Valentine’s Day** for a gentle, warm, and slightly unpredictable afternoon, not to talk about romantic love, but about **the connection with yourself** 💗. This meetup isn't about figuring out who you are, but about reflecting on who you are, your passions and priorities, and how things unfold over time. 🌟 What to expect A small circle of open-minded people, with tea, coffee, or food in hand, sharing reflections, philosophy, psychology, or simply ideas and inspirations that arise naturally in the moment. The topic is suggested above, and the conversation will flow organically.🪄 We’ll explore the questions step by step, from light to deeper, in a roundtable format. For example: - What’s your name, where are you from, and what are you doing in Luxembourg? - How would you describe your character? What are your strengths and weaknesses? - What are you passionate about? What puts you into a flow state? - What are the three core values that guide your life right now? - How did you come to “find yourself”? - What tends to change once you feel more settled in who you are? - How do priorities shift over time? - What becomes simpler — and what might become more complicated? - How do you continue to become yourself? - …and whatever else naturally emerges. There’s no pressure to share deeply — listening is just as welcome as speaking. ✨ 📌 Practical details 📍 Venue: Bouneweger Stuff 📅 Date: Saturday, February 14, 2026 🕒 Time: 15:00 – 17:00 👥 Group size: Up to 12 people ☕ Food & drinks: Everyone orders and pays individually (Since this is a rather specific topic, the group will stay small. If you find that you can’t attend, please cancel your spot so someone else can join.) If you enjoy authentic connection, gentle humour, openness to different perspectives, and curiosity about others — not just what they do, but who they are — you’re very welcome to join. 🫶

**People Analytics 101: Making Sense of Compensation Data** Compensation data is one of the most widely used and widely misunderstood forms of people analytics. The session will cover where compensation data comes from, including market pricing data, internal payroll data, and benchmarking sources, and how companies think about structuring and analyzing that information. We will explore how compensation data is leveraged to set salary ranges, manage internal equity, support hiring and retention, and align pay with business strategy. A portion of the session will address common data challenges and limitations, such as market noise, inconsistent job matching, and incomplete datasets, while keeping the primary focus on practical use rather than technical depth. The session will also look ahead at where the space is going, including the growing impact of pay transparency laws, expanding pay equity requirements, and emerging regulations in the US and Europe that require organizations to report on gender and pay gaps. The goal is to give attendees a clear mental model for how compensation analytics works today and why getting it right is becoming increasingly critical. (note: we are back at Rev1 this month!) **About Our Speaker** [Alex Moore](https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexscottmoore/) is the founder of [Moore Cooperative](https://moorecooperative.com/), where he advises organizations on compensation strategy, pay equity, and people analytics. His work focuses on helping organizations like the Ohio Supreme Court design, analyze, and communicate compensation systems that are data-informed, defensible, and aligned with organizational goals. Alex lives in Granville, Ohio and has three little kiddos. More info at [cbusdaw.com](https://cbusdaw.com)
