***SPEAKER BIOS & TOPICS:***
**[Ali Reza Farahnak](https://dk.linkedin.com/in/alirezafarahnak)** is a Senior AI Architect at [Microsoft](https://www.microsoft.com/), focused on AI, Azure, and GitHub. For the past 7 years he has worked out of Microsoft's Global Customer Success organization in Redmond with some of the world's largest customers, including Tesla, NEOM, the London Stock Exchange, Bank of America, Emirates, Aramco, Maersk, Novo Nordisk, and several governments. Since January 2026, he has been part of Customer Success in Denmark, helping Danish enterprises turn generative AI into production-ready solutions.
Topic: Most enterprise AI apps stop at the chat window, but your customers are on the phone, on WhatsApp, on SMS, in their inbox, and inside Teams. Ali shows how Azure Communication Services lets a single AI app reach customers across all of those channels, with a live demo of an outbound Danish speaking voice agent, similar to what has been built for the insurance industry, Vodafone Qatar, Norlys and many more, that calls a customer, runs a light identity check, and has a real conversation powered by Azure Voice Live and gpt-realtime-1.5.
**[Kræn Hansen](https://dk.linkedin.com/in/kraenhansen)** is a Developer Experience Engineer at voice AI startup [ElevenLabs](https://elevenlabs.io/) where he builds [SDKs](https://elevenlabs.io/blog/elevenagents-react-sdk-v1-0) to enable text-to-speech, speech-to-text, and voice-cloning on the real-time ElevenAgents platform. He formerly worked at MongoDB, building a local-first database and sync engine called Realm. He holds a Master's degree in Computer Science from the Technical University of Denmark (DTU).
Topic: "We talk to AI every day, but when we switch from typing to speaking, the rules change. A half-second delay breaks the illusion of conversation. In this talk, I'll take you behind the scenes of how voice agents actually work: what makes a voice conversation feel natural, why latency is the enemy, and the different ways you can deploy voice AI, from fully managed platforms to bringing your own AI model. Whether you're building with voice AI or just curious about where it's heading, you'll walk away understanding what's really going on when you talk to a machine."
**[Daniella Feiglin](https://dk.linkedin.com/in/daniella-feiglin)** is a Product Manager at [Tactile](https://tactilegames.com/product-manager-at-tactile/), where she works closely with development teams and stakeholders to turn ideas into fully launched game features. She joined the company in August 2025 and brings nearly a decade of experience in the mobile games industry with a background across game design, market research, and product management. At Tactile, she focuses on using data and market insights to shape product decisions and drive impactful player experiences.
Topic: A practical, honest look at how day-to-day work changed using Claude Code. Daniella will share how she transitioned to an AI-powered workflow that allows her to prototype features as she specs them, while providing consistent, high-detail output for her development teams at a higher pace.
**[Olga Safonova](https://www.linkedin.com/in/olgasafonova/)** is a product leader with 20+ years in enterprise tech, currently Lead PM for [Public 360°](https://www.tietoevry.com/en/industry/public-360-services/360-case-document-and-records-management/) at Tieto (GovTech, 500K+ users). Previously at Siteimprove, Workday, LEO Innovation Lab and Saxo Bank. She also builds: Open-source MCP servers (a few running in production), an OTel observability library for AI tool infrastructure, and SkillCheck (getskillcheck.com). Where most product leaders talk about AI, she ships it on weekends.
Topic: From personal OS to team OS - Agentic skills, MCPs and team context. As product manager, Olga shares how she built her own AI tooling: A personal OS of agentic skills, MCP servers, CLIs, and the cross-machine configurations that keeps it coherent.

Expect a lively but welcoming table with:
* engaging facilitation

It’s competitive - but always social and inclusive.

Green Paddling 🚣🏻♀️ May edition
....aaaaand we are back in the water also this year!!!
Kayaking around the city channels is one of the most enjoyable activities in Copenhagen on a sunny day.
GreenKayak, a NGO dedicated to raise awareness to ocean pollution, makes few (open) kayaks available across the city to paddle and help collecting waste floating in the water.
Open kayaks are typically easier to manovre than other types, and do not require EPP2/EPP3 patents.
I booked 2 double kayaks for 4 ppl in total.
It is possible to use the facilities at Kayak Republic free of charge: restrooms, lockers and showers.
**REQUIREMENT**
\- Safety first \- Need to be able to swim comfortably
\- Waterproof gear preferable
\- Sun lotion and sunglasses
\- Change of clothes in case yours get a bit wet during paddling
\- Towel\, if you want to shower or just in case
**COST**
Unfortunately, due to the frequent last minute cancellation last summer, it was challenging backfilling participants with short or no notice, and it was very disrespectful to the group and GreenKayak NGO.
**To reserve your spot, please transfer 150 kr. to my mobilepay 25717293**. The amount will be returned to you if you show up on time, or the event is cancelled for other reasons; **this remains a free non-profit event**.
The kayak rental is free of charge provided that:
\- we are able to pick\-up some waste during our paddling activity
\- we share our experience on the So\.Me \#GreenKayak
**AGENDA**
11:50- Meet up - please be on time 🙂
11:50-12:00 Briefing and getting ready
12-00-13:45 Paddling around Copenhagen channels and return to the start point
13:45-14:00 Return the equipment to Kayak Republic

Drunken Philosophy: What’s up with all the AI hate?
**Welcome to Drunken Philosophy** a casual, curious social discussion
**Optional topic for this meetup: What's up with all the AI hate?**
A recent survey found that 74% of Americans have a negative view of AI, and I want to know why. Come out and debate whether AI is good or bad.
My hot take: a labor-saving tool that could potentially help cure cancer gets called dangerous because it might raise unemployment or cause a speculative investment bubble, that tells you a lot more about capitalism and the economic system we live under than it does about the tool itself. As a computer programmer, I think AI is a wonderful tool that has increased my productivity by at least an order of magnitude. I'd go so far as to say Claude Code is the best tool I have ever used. Debate me and name a better one.
Is AI potentially dangerous? Yes, but so are a lot of tools. Chainsaws. Steam engines (early ones would occasionally explode and kill everyone in the room). Do you think cavemen sat around debating whether fire could be used as a weapon or for self-harm, and decided not to discover it?
I have two friends who hate AI for opposite reasons: one thinks it's a fad and not useful, and the other thinks it's going to take over everything and cause human extinction.
Come out tonight, have a friendly debate, and make some friends.
No lectures. Friendly crowd. Drop in for one drink and stay if it's fun.

Free In-Person Meeting: Get Over Losses & Betrayals, Build Lasting Relationships
This is a free, in-person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships.
Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse.
Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well.
Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship.
Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action?
Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships!
Break free from self imposed limitations
Here we will discuss:
• How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes.
• Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you?
• Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it?
• Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love?
• Fights & arguments - what's really behind them?
• What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others?
• How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change?
• Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them?
• How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about?
• How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career?
Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general.
Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person.
Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life.
We look forward to having you join us!

You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge.
**Abstract**
Like it or not, AI agents are now capable of turning a quickly written paragraph of requirements into a pull request that is ready to be integrated into real-world production applications and it's now our responsibility to make sure AI doesn't go rogue and take down prod - or corrupt our data by misunderstanding the requirements or our existing schemas. In this session we'll explore strategies to protect our codebases through unit and integration testing, documentation, and code review along with additional ways of providing context and guard rails to our AI agents as they carry out the work we've assigned them to do. By the time we're done, you'll have a firm grasp of the problem and understand some helpful options for protecting your codebase from vibe coding mishaps getting YOLOed into prod.
