Tässä sessiossa katsotaan, mitä Copilot Cowork oikeasti tekee ja miltä sen käyttö näyttää arjen tilanteissa. Vedetään läpi muutama demo, joissa Cowork hoitaa rutiinit ja valmistelut taustalla, jotta käyttäjä voi keskittyä siihen mikä oikeasti vie työtä eteenpäin. Samalla jutellaan myös siitä, missä EU‑regulaation kanssa tällä hetkellä mennään ja mitä se tarkoittaa Coworkin käytölle nyt ja lähitulevaisuudessa. **Liity mukaan Teamsilla:** [https://copilotbuzz.com/miitti](https://copilotbuzz.com/miitti)

You are warmly welcomed to another in-person gathering of the Return community. During this event we'll create an open, free and safe space for meeting up with the people of the community and sharing what the heart desires to share. There's no strict agenda on what this event will hold. The soft intention here is to return to the mystery and see what arises from the present moment we create together. I'm looking forward to seeing you in-person at Bokvillan and returning to the mystery ✨

A warm space to write, connect, and spend some intentional time together. We start by gathering, chatting a little, and ordering a tea or coffee if you like.

If you are noise sensitive, bring earplugs/headphones etc.. There’s no pressure to share your work unless you feel like it — you’re always welcome to keep things private. All kinds of writing are welcome: – Creative writing – Poetry – Journaling – Essays or academic work – Anything else Any language is welcome too. After the session, you’re welcome to stay, chat, and hang out for as long as you like.

Welcome to join our Sahaja Yoga meditation meetings in English! The meetings are free of charge and you can just show up. The group consists of people of different ages and nationalities who have been meditating different periods of time. Newcomers are welcome at any time. We normally sit on chairs or on pillows on the floor, so there is no need to bring a mat and you can wear normal clothes. Meditation means mental silence or thoughtless awareness. You are present here and now, but your mind is not bombarded by thoughts from the past or the future. In this state, you feel peace and joy, which are the essential elements of the present moment. With regular practice of meditation, it is possible to establish this state within us. The group is lead by volunteers who are experienced and can offer guidance to get you started. We give a short introduction to the meditation and after that we do meditation exercises. We also give tips on how to meditate at home. After the meditation class, we have a cup of tea and there is time for questions. Welcome! We hope to see you in our meditation meetings!

Antero leads the Data, AI & Integrations unit at DNA, and acts as the company-wide AI transformation lead.

Whether you’re fine-tuning stakeholder management, mastering prioritisation, or seeking inspiration, you’ll find a welcoming space to learn, collaborate, and advance your skills.

Our events are designed to support the mental health and well-being of refugees and immigrants, while also encouraging dialogue that challenges cross-cultural stigmas and stereotypes. We believe open access is an important step in building trust, increasing participation, and creating meaningful connections across communities. After badminton, we'll enjoy Talihalli's sauna and maybe go to a local restaurant to grab some lunch after the game.

Welcome to our June meetup in Helsinki, arranged together with Elisa (https://elisa.fi/). Schedule: 17:00 Doors open! 17:30 Welcome words by organizers and Elisa 17:40 **"Build before specifying", Kristofer Pasanen, Development Manager/Product Owner, Elisa** What changes when a PO builds before specifying? Better stakeholder conversations. Real artifacts for real decisions. Sometimes the roles blur – sometimes it becomes obvious why every role is still needed. Notes from a year of building for myself and at Elisa. \*5 min break\* 18:15 **"Bringing Context, Orchestration and AI Agents to the SDLC by Graham & Akseli from Kaiku"** With AI in delivery projects, we consistently see the same pattern: every engineer has their own rules, their own prompts, their own way of working — and nothing is shared. Context lives in people's heads, local systems, or scattered across repositories. At Kaiku we've been tackling this from the inside - bringing shared context, structured skills, and orchestrated agents across our whole company. In this session, Graham & Akseli will walk through how Kaiku has approached this, how we've evolved and where we're aiming next. * ⁠Why context is the real bottleneck in AI-assisted development and why solving it at the individual level doesn't scale. * ⁠Building a shared knowledge layer: encoding expertise into skills, rules, and workflows that agents and humans pull from the same source. * What it looks like in practice when POs and engineers are all working with the same AI context across their tools and agents. * Orchestrating agents across the delivery lifecycle: what's worked, what we've learnt, and what we're still figuring out. Akseli Manninen is a senior data scientist at Kaiku and Graham Daw is one of the founders. \*5 min break\* 18:50 **"How an AI-native marketing agency actually uses AI** **Built AI-native from day one", Valtteri Taube, co-founder, OstraconAI** Valtteri Taube shares how the agency operates — and what it means to run marketing in an AI-first way. One example: the Claude Skills the team uses in its own marketing 19:30 Mingling / free discussion etc 20:00 Doors close **About us** Vibe Coding Finland is a community for developers, designers, business professionals and tech enthusiasts who love to vibe code, learn, and connect in a relaxed and inspiring atmosphere.

Full Circle is a community of practice where mental health and wellbeing professionals come together to learn, share, and grow. ​If you’re a mental health or wellbeing practitioner who thrives on shared wisdom and community, Full Circle offers a space where you can connect, grow, and bring fresh insights back into your client work. ​**Full Circle is for professionals who work with clients in mental health or wellbeing** (e.g. psychotherapists, counsellors, art therapists, coaches, and others integrating mind–body approaches) . ​A community of practice is a space where we come together as professionals to share our experiences, challenges, and insights, not to be taught, but to learn from each other. Full Circle is about connection, not workshops. It’s a circle of peers, not a classroom. ​**By registering for this event, you agree to stand by our shared principles:** * ​Confidentiality: What is shared in the circle stays in the circle. * ​Presence: We give our full attention to each other, listening deeply. * ​Respect: Every voice matters; we value different perspectives and approaches. * ​Curiosity: We come to explore, not to give definitive answers. * ​Contribution: Everyone is encouraged to share practices, cases, and reflections. * ​Commitment: We show up consistently, knowing the community grows through regular participation. ​**How our gatherings work**: ​We gather **once a month** in person, and every time we move through the same process: * ​*Check-in*: We begin by going around the circle, with each person sharing what’s present for them in the moment. * ​*Shared practice*: One member of the community leads the group through a method, exercise, or embodied practice from their own field. Everyone experiences it first-hand. * ​*Integration dialogue*: Together, we explore what the practice brought up and how it might be woven into our client work. * ​*Check-out*: Each person shares one insight they will carry with them.
