This special holiday program is perfect for children who love being creative and want to try out different techniques. Inspired by the "All You Can Eat" principle, you can create as much as you like within your booked time. What can you create? During the summer holidays, you'll have a wide range of creative activities to choose from. You can focus on one technique or try several. Manga Drawing (1.5 hrs) \*starts at 1:00 pm\* Learn step-by-step how to draw manga characters. You'll learn the basics of manga faces, eyes, and proportions, and you can create your own character. Pottery (2 hrs) Shape a small bowl, mini vase, or figurine with your hands! I'll show you how! Acrylic Painting (2 hrs) Paint your own picture with acrylic paints on canvas. Whether it's cute animals, food illustrations, or summer scenes – let your imagination run wild! Coloring (0.5 hrs) Perfect for relaxing between other projects. Choose a template or create your own design and experiment with colors. Decoding (0.5 - 1 hr) In this popular technique, you decorate objects with a creamy paste and cute decorative elements. For example, cases, mirrors, or small boxes. The finished piece needs to dry overnight in the studio and can be picked up the next day. (max 3) Punch Needle (1 - 2 hr) Using yarn and a special needle, you create textured patterns and small textile artworks. This technique is easy to learn and especially fun. Crochet Tote Bag (1 hr) Using simple crochet techniques, you can make a small bag or accessory from yarn. Design Jewelry & Keychains (0.5 - 1 hr) Create your own bracelets, pendants, or small gifts. Hand Lettering & Greeting Card Design (1 - 1.5 hr) Learn beautiful lettering and design personalized cards – perfect for birthdays or short messages. Nail Design (1 hr) You can also get creative with your nails. For hygiene reasons, please bring your own nail file and nail polish. Just like with "All You Can Eat," there's only one important rule at All You Can Create: 👉 You must complete your project. If a project appears incomplete, an additional fee of 10 CHF will be charged. This rule helps ensure that the creative space is used fairly for everyone and motivates participants to consciously complete their projects.

Two complementary takes on what actually decides whether AI delivers value in an organization. One on why role-based structures are the real enabler, the other on what happens to teams when AI starts resolving the tickets. Here's what's planned for the evening: 17:30 - 18:00 - Arrival and first drinks 18:00 - 18:45 - AI Value Creation Starts Beyond Technology by Ralf Günthner 18:45 - 19:30 - When the Bot Takes the Ticket: Keeping Teams Effective as AI Rewrites the Rules by Dagmar Muth 19:30 - 20:30 - Networking, Open Space & More drinks\* **AI Value Creation Starts Beyond Technology** Many companies are currently investing heavily in AI agents, copilots, and automation, yet the expected gains in productivity and innovation often fail to materialize. The reason is rarely technological, but structural: classic hierarchical organizational models are not designed to collaborate effectively with learning, adaptive systems. This keynote explains why role-based work is the decisive enabler for successful AI adoption. In role-based organizations, responsibilities are clearly defined, decision rights are decentralized, and collaboration is dynamically organized, exactly the conditions under which AI agents can deliver maximum value. Drawing on current research (including McKinsey, MIT CISR, and Harvard Business School) and practical examples from industry, mechanical engineering, and chemicals, the keynote shows how companies can combine AI agents with role-based structures to: * drastically shorten implementation timelines * increase acceptance and trust in AI * enable continuous optimization instead of one-off pilot projects * significantly improve the ROI of AI investments The core message: AI does not transform organizations, organizations determine whether AI creates impact. Those who invest today in role-based ways of working, shared leadership, and decentralized decision logic build the operational foundation to not only introduce AI, but scale it strategically. **Ralf Günthner** Ralf Günthner is a transformation expert, entrepreneur, and lecturer with over 25 years of experience in digital transformation, AI, IoT, and organizational development. In his keynotes, he shows why AI value creation does not emerge from algorithms, platforms, or tools, but from leadership, culture, decision-making logic, and effective collaboration. He combines deep technology expertise with systems thinking, neuroscience, and hands-on transformation work. As Co-CEO of Team-Factory GmbH, he supports companies in anchoring AI strategically, creating orientation, and delivering sustainable impact, beyond hype and technology fixation. **When the Bot Takes the Ticket: Keeping Teams Effective as AI Rewrites the Rules** AI agents are starting to resolve incidents, write code, and close tickets. That's great for throughput, but what happens to the humans in the team? Motivation, ownership, skill development, and psychological safety don't disappear as team development topics just because productivity metrics go up. In this talk, Dagmar Muth draws on her work with engineering and product teams navigating AI-driven transformation. She shares what it takes to make AI integration work for the whole team: how to preserve ownership and purpose, keep accountability clear, and build the patterns that distinguish teams that thrive from those that merely adapt. You'll leave with a clear mental model for thinking about team health in AI-augmented setups and concrete questions to bring back to your own team or organization. **Dagmar Muth** Dagmar Muth is a systemic organizational developer and agile coach with 20 years of experience guiding teams and companies through transformation. As a co-worker of pragmatic solutions ag in Zürich, she supports organizations in finding the right setup, processes, and culture to sustain performance from vision to go-live, increasingly in contexts shaped by AI. She works with cross-functional tech and product teams, coaches leaders, and lectures on agile project management at SIB. Her particular focus right now: how organizations integrate AI without losing what makes their teams actually work.

**If your design feels right, how do you prove that it works?** Creatives are taught to trust their instincts, and rightly so. But intuition alone can leave your best work undefended in the room, and it cannot tell you whether a design actually changed anything. What looks better in a critique still needs to prove that it creates value in the real world. So, the real challenge is knowing what works, not just what looks good. In this keynote, **Mario Stipetic**, product designer, engineer, and product manager based in Zürich, introduces data-driven design as a practical way to use evidence without killing creativity. With over 14 years of experience designing and building SaaS web and mobile products end to end, including as Head of Product Design at a US-based fintech, Mario works at the intersection of design, product, and engineering. Join us on **June 30** as Mario shows, through real before-and-after case studies, how simple data can help teams test ideas, iterate faster, and build products people keep coming back to. **💡 What will you learn?** * Why creativity and data work best together, and how measurement helps you defend your design decisions * How simple methods like a 1–5 survey, a funnel, or a fake button can give you real proof without a big team or budget * How to set a clear hypothesis and one metric before you design, then measure before vs after * How to read what the data is telling you and turn it into sharper copy, visuals, flows, and product decisions *Connect with Mario* [LinkedIn](http://linkedin.com/in/mariostipetic) —— **📍 Where?** [Kulturhaus Helferei](https://maps.app.goo.gl/AJuPTcLTmihXxHyn9), near the Grossmünster in Niederdorf. \> Kirchgasse 13\, 8001 Zürich (Tram-Station Helmhaus) **📅 When?** Tuesday, June 30, 6:45 PM / 18:45 Uhr **⏰ What’s the schedule?** 6:30 PM → Doors open 6:45 PM → Keynote + Q&A 7:30 PM → Networking 🔗 **Discord** Get event reminders and connect with other members on Discord: ➡️ [discord.gg/PAyRBDhKkk](https://discord.gg/PAyRBDhKkk) —— **Who’s Visual Fields?** Visual Fields is a network of designers and creatives built for people to connect, support, and share with fellow experts.

### **Poolside Chats: Design, Research, Engineering & UX** Join us for a relaxed summer gathering at one of Zurich’s local Badis. This is a casual community meetup for designers, researchers developers, product managers, and other curious builders who enjoy thoughtful conversations, sharing ideas, and spending time outdoors. We’ll gather by the pool to discuss topics such as: * Passion projects * Design, technology, and product thinking * Ethical and responsible uses of AI * Creativity, learning, and experimentation * Personal philosophies and ways of working * Interesting questions about the future The format is intentionally informal. Feel free to join a conversation, listen, ask questions, or share something you’ve been exploring. Need a break? Take a swim, cool off, and come back with a fresh perspective or a new idea to discuss. This is not a recruiting event, job fair, or transactional networking meetup. While meaningful professional relationships may naturally develop over time, the purpose of the gathering is not to find clients, hire employees, or look for your next job. Instead, the goal is to create a welcoming space for genuine conversation, intellectual curiosity, and human connection. Bring your curiosity, a towel, and whatever ideas have been occupying your mind lately. \*Come to exchange ideas, not business cards.\*

**Practical Curiosity: Learning from Everyday Data** How do we actually get better at utilizing our day-to-day data? Fancy dashboards and complex models might look nice and draw attention, but that’s not where most of us spend our time. In fact those shiny outputs frequently sit unused, while the real insights are drawn from the analyst’s daily practice. Sometimes it’s as simple and as powerful as noticing that a segment is shrinking, a channel is underused, or certain links keep getting all the clicks. There’s many different places that the spark of insight can come from, but you have to keep your head in the data and know where to look. In this session, we’ll explore real-world examples of how segmentation, testing, and click behavior can uncover practical digital marketing opportunities. You’ll leave with inspiration for your own use cases, along with a few simple ways to ask better questions, spot meaningful patterns, and make smarter decisions without overcomplicating it. **About Our Speaker:** [Elaine Armbruster](https://www.linkedin.com/in/elainearmbruster/) is a Director of Digital Experience at the [American Diabetes Association](https://diabetes.org/), where she focuses on using data and insights to create smarter, more effective digital experiences. A lifelong Columbus resident, she has built her career in email marketing and the broader digital user journey, and is finding she most enjoys working in the messy middle where systems, data, and big ideas don’t quite line up yet.
