Scrum in Real World

🍻 **Join Us for Tech Startups in the Pub - Milan Edition!** 🍻 Hey there! 🌟 We'd love for you to join us for our next edition of *Tech Startups in the Pub,* this time in Milan, Italy! The event is scheduled for **6:30 PM local Italian time**. The platform does not allow us to change the time zone, so we can only create events with the GMT time, thus you will see the invitation for 7:30 PM, but you definitely want to come earlier. It's a relaxed evening at The O'Connell Irish Pub, and run by Volodymyr. We have been running for 3.5 years in London and we are excited to now run our monthly events in Milan as well, welcoming new folks to the community. Whether you're a tech founder, an enthusiast, a budding entrepreneur, or simply curious about the tech scene, you'll fit right in. This isn't about panels or pitching, just good old-fashioned networking with like-minded people over a drink on a Thursday evening. Important information about the location and time. **It is in the ZTL zone**, so please do not come by car. Please use public transport or walk. **House Rules:** * Find Volodymyr to introduce yourself so we can welcome you properly. The pub knows we are coming, so you should be able to find us easily. * No hard selling or heavy pitching. This is a chill, friendly after-work get-together. * Not drinking? No worries! You're more than welcome to come hang out and enjoy the conversation. Mark your calendar and come down for some fun tech talk. See you there!

**Are you ready for the Milano–Cortina Winter Olympics? We’re not.** **That’s why we’ve created our very own Ostello Bello "Olympic" Games: a glorious display of questionable athletic skills and high-level nonsense.** While the "other" guys are busy with the official **Milano-Cortina 2026** ceremonies, we’re bringing the real "action" to the streets of Milan. From February 6th, we aren't gathering to break world records; we’re gathering to break the laws of physics. This isn’t about the podium; it’s about the survival of the chillest. Get your "winter" gear ready, because we’re about to prove that being an elite athlete is 10% talent and 90% just showing up for the vibes. **The Incentive:** Every participant gets a **shot**. The "legends" who actually win take home an **Ostello Bello T-shirt or a Drink**. ## The Disciplines: Official "Technical" Standards Every day from **7 PM to 9 PM**, our "athletes" will face a rotating schedule of these elite winter disciplines: ### 1\. Air Hockey: The Wrist\-Flick Battle A high-speed duel where the only thing frozen is your gaze on the puck. * **The Goal:** Smash the plastic disc into the hole. * **Requirement:** Move your hand faster than your brain can process and celebrate every point like you’ve just secured a gold medal. ### 2\. Boxing\-Glove Beer Pong: The Clumsy Champion Challenge We took a classic and made it impossible by adding the "Yeti factor." * **The Twist:** You have to play wearing massive, padded boxing gloves. * **The Challenge:** Gripping a tiny ball with giant hands is the ultimate test of patience. Success here is statistically unlikely and basically a miracle. ### 3\. DIY Curling: The Professional Slide The most serious-looking sport in our program. We’ve replaced expensive stones with pots and ice with felt pads, but the tension is real. * **The Setup:** A "House" (target) taped on the floor and a "Hog Line" for the release. * **The Action:** Launch the pot while your teammates run alongside it with brooms, screaming *"Hurry! Hard!"* just like in the real tournaments. * **The Score:** Closest pot to the center wins. Clean floors are a bonus. ### BONUS DAY: The "Wildcard" Game The discipline is a mystery. Our local legends will choose the challenge. Expect the unexpected: and probably more shots. **AND REPEAT.**

Sono proprietario di un bar e dispongo di un tavolo da biliardo semi-professionale. Sto creando un gruppo WhatsApp di giocatori amatoriali di biliardo americano pool/carambola, per la maggior parte debuttanti. Cerco persone disposte a unirsi al gruppo per giocare e divertirsi nel tempo libero, il pomeriggio oppure la sera in ogni giorno. Per stimolare l'impegno di ogni giocatore, abbiamo pattuito che il vincitore di ogni "mini-torneo" organizzato nei vari giorni giochi gratis e non paghi la tariffa di tempo per il periodo di gioco (un'ora di gioco costa 10€, ma viene di volta in volta frazionata in base al periodo di gioco effettivo). Il locale si trova in zona nord di Milano, stazione Greco-Pirelli, università Bicocca. Chiunque dovesse essere davvero interessato a partecipare e unirsi al mio gruppo, non esiti a contattarmi. Cerco persone serie e disposte solamente a divertirsi, senza puntare mazzette grazie mille. Antonio

Ritiro speciale di San Valentino per esplorare le relazioni, l’amore e la guarigione emotiva **Non è necessario partecipare in coppia** per prendere parte a questo ritiro. Venire in coppia può essere un dono, ma non è un requisito. Ogni persona vive il proprio processo in modo unico e individuale, in ascolto profondo di sé. **La felicità attraverso le relazioni è un mito o una possibilità reale?** Desideriamo relazioni d’amore, affetto e comprensione, ma spesso qualcosa si blocca. Paure, schemi antichi e ferite invisibili emergono come barriere interiori, impedendoci di vivere il tipo di legame che il cuore desidera. Ci ritroviamo in tensioni e incomprensioni che nascono da piccoli dettagli, senza capire da dove arrivino né come trasformarle. **Cosa esploreremo:** In questo ritiro esploreremo il complesso mondo dei legami umani: * **La coppia:** con i suoi contratti impliciti e il bisogno di libertà * **Sessualità e intimità:** come vie di conoscenza e verità * **Famiglia e genitori:** dove nascono i nostri modelli affettivi * **Amare ed essere amati:** come possibilità autentica Le relazioni riflettono i condizionamenti che ci governano. Solo riconoscendoli possiamo liberarci e aprirci a un amore più consapevole. **Il lavoro con le piante maestre:** In questo incontro lavoreremo con le **piante maestre** in modo sottile e profondo. Non saranno al centro, ma al servizio di un campo di coscienza creato dall’intenzione di comprendere e guarire. Un invito a guardare le relazioni non come un bisogno, ma come un cammino verso l’amore reale. **La prenotazione include:** * **Alloggio e pensione completa**, con opzione vegana o vegetariana * Partecipazione ai **laboratori di approfondimento** con i facilitatori, che servono anche come preparazione prima della sessione notturna * **Integrazioni di gruppo del mattino** per condividere l’esperienza o ampliare la comprensione di ciò che sta accadendo nel tuo processo * Una **sessione con strumenti ancestrali** ogni notte di ritiro (se vuoi farne più di una durante il giorno di ritiro, si considera come una sessione aggiuntiva) con l’accompagnamento dell’equipe di facilitatori * **Appoggio prima, durante e dopo il ritiro** * **Sessione integrativa online** post ritiro **Informazioni in breve:** Per info sull’evento per favore contattaci direttamente ai riferimenti qui sotto 🙏 * **Data dell’evento:** 12-15 febbraio 2026 * **Struttura ospitante:** Da comunicare * **Città:** Milano, Lombardia * **Indirizzo:** Location da confermare 📞 **Contatti:** +39 327 540 8329 (WhatsApp) * **Altre informazioni:** Ritiro di 4 giorni a Milano. Non è necessario partecipare in coppia.

Who's in to hang out and play some basketball this Sunday? 😊 Our community member **Manikandan** is hosting a casual, friendly meetup. He’s a **professional basketball player** and would love to bring people together for a relaxed run.

If we get enough people, we can consider **renting a court and split the cost**. If we don’t have enough people to rent, **Parco Sempione will be our backup** (meet and play at the public court). To join: **drop a quick RSVP here**, then **join the WhatsApp group and message Ellie** so she can count you in and send the final location + updates. Once we see the numbers, we’ll finalize the plan and share details on Saturday. 💛 **About WE NEED + (MORE) PPL** We’re building a community for adults **25–50** who enjoy real, low-pressure social time.

Questo San Valentino, la community di @bookclubproibito si incontra a per il workshop creativo "The Book Cover of Your Love & Connections". Dopo il successo di “The Book Cover of Your Life” per BookCity Milano, torna un nuovo workshop in versione San Valentino: “The Book Cover of Your Love & Connections” 💘 Ça va sans dire, l'evento è LGBTQ+ friendly 🌈 Guidati da [@bookclubproibito](https://www.instagram.com/bookclubproibito/), i partecipanti saranno accompagnati attraverso stimoli visivi e sensoriali, spunti di scrittura e domande mirate per dare forma – in modo concreto e creativo – a qualcosa di molto personale. Insieme, creeremo la copertina che racconta il nostro viaggio nella scoperta dell’amore e delle connessioni: aspettative, idealizzazioni, desideri, gioie (anche sessuali), incontri e legami che ci hanno trasformato. Il risultato sarà un formato A4 creato con un insieme di tecniche come il collage creativo, la scrittura, il disegno libero e il caviardage. Questo workshop è uno spazio sicuro e giocoso per esplorare, riflettere e raccontarsi in modo nuovo. Non serve avere esperienza di scrittura o arte: basta la voglia di esprimere un pezzo autentico di sé, divertirsi e scoprire nuovi linguaggi di espressione. ✨ Ti aspettiamo 🖤

This training is designed for real estate agents who want to learn how to play the Agent Investor game. The goal of this training is to help you flip your income into ownership. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ **Investors move fast. Most agents don’t.** If you can’t evaluate a deal quickly and confidently, you lose credibility—and the opportunity disappears. Deal or Disaster teaches a simple, repeatable framework to determine in minutes whether a deal prints money or burns it. In this session, you’ll learn a 5-minute investment evaluation system that works across flips, rentals, BRRRRs, wholetails, and creative deals. The goal isn’t perfection—it’s speed, clarity, and credibility. We’ll break down: * How to identify the investor’s true goal before running numbers * A fast, reliable method to estimate ARV with confidence * How to calculate the real all-in acquisition cost * Simple heuristics to ballpark rehab and improvement costs * The key metrics that reveal whether a deal works—or should be killed You’ll also learn the most common red flags that signal bad deals, thin margins, and hidden risk, so you know when to pause or walk away. When you can analyze deals in minutes, you earn authority, build trust, and become indispensable to investors. Speed creates opportunity—and opportunity creates repeat business. If you want to move from real estate generalist to trusted investment strategist, this session gives you the framework to do it. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ **Did you miss it?** [Watch all GRID Reston event playback on YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLOTh5kxLLJI1G3VH6Pqhlhu0uTA8yrdpi) ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ **Join the GRID Facebook Community** [Join the online GRID community here](https://www.facebook.com/groups/gridinvestor) to post deals, ask questions, and connect with other investors across the globe.

**Join the BreadBreakers community for an evening of connection and comradery over the timeless art of boardgaming!** BreadBreakers is a community where people of all different belief systems and backgrounds create community and have meaningful conversation. Usually we do that over the dinner table, but sometimes you've got to change it up a bit! Here's what to expect: * A kind, welcoming atmosphere and community * Several familiar, and several novel boardgames. * Snacks :) * We'll be gathering in Meeting Room 1 at the Reston Regional Library. * Feel free to bring a board game to share if you'd like! **I've never attended a BreadBreakers event before - what is BreadBreakers?** BreadBreakers is a community where neighbors from all different beliefs and backgrounds can **hear, be heard, and know one another.** Most frequently, we do this through the ancient practice of breaking bread around a common dining table. But we're more than just a discussion group - we're a movement to heal our world's broken discourse and forge togetherness in a time of isolation and loneliness. **Through the sacred act of just "being" together, we're working to rebuild the town square, one table (or game night) at a time.** BreadBreakers is a religiously inclusive by Restoration United Methodist Church in Reston, VA. All faiths, beliefs, and stripes are welcomed, and our leadership and community include people who attend Restoration and people who don't.

The Cash-Flow Breakfast Club is NOT just a meet up. It’s the most unique Real Estate Investor Community of Mentors, Coaches & Masterminds. A community of growth oriented, abundance mindset, go-giver individuals with a BARE MINIMUM commitment to become financially free through real estate investing. We focus on providing education and building networks to help every member solve their cash-flow freedom equation, so they can have the time-freedom needed to follow their passions, make a lasting impact and even change the world! The unique format of this event, which consists of high-level education, gamified networking, mastermind breakout sessions, case studies, group deal analysis, market deep dives, and peer-to-peer coaching facilitation makes this the most impactful local real estate investor group a real estate investor can be a part of. The foundation of the group is built around the belief that everyone in the room has the potential to change the world… however most of us never have the time, energy or financial situation to even dare to dream big enough. Most of us have passions that will never be followed, amazing businesses or ideas that will never be pursued… unless we can solve the Cash-Flow Freedom Equation, which ultimately leads to Time-Freedom. Once that happens it is usually much easier for us to think bigger, dream bigger, be bigger. · 🤯 Learn more about the Cash-Flow Breakfast Club [HERE](https://cashflowbreakfastclub.com/) · 🥇 Get in the VIP List to be notified about the next event in your area [HERE](https://the.cashflowbreakfastclub.com/VIP) · 🤙🏼 Learn more about Launching your own Cash-Flow Breakfast Club Location [HERE](https://cashflowbreakfastclub.com/launch-your-own-club/) · 🤝🏼 Learn more about becoming an Affiliate-Sponsor at one of our club locations [HERE](https://cashflowbreakfastclub.com/affiliate-sponsors/) · 📷 View photos and videos of some of our recent events [HERE](https://cashflowbreakfastclub.com/about-the-cash-flow-breakfast-club/) · 😎 Looking to represent?
