If you feel that there are better questions in life, this is the place for you. 🙌 **📓 HOW DOES IT WORK?** We start with a short & sweet intro talk followed by a few light-hearted group games to warm up. After that, we split you up into small groups and start with the conversation rounds (with 3-4 people). We'll have awesome question cards that will guide the flow of the conversation. You’ll never have to speak in public if you don’t want to. **🕹 HOW TO JOIN?** **[Take 1 minute to sign up 👈](https://luma.com/ftst4berlin)** 🔗 On your phone and can't click?

Give it a try!” - Brenda 🗣 "It’s a wonderful experience, it’s like being a kid again, when you were at the park, playing with other kids, and just decided you were going to be best friends for the next hours. Maybe you’ll never see those kids again. But that hour was amazing because you both opened up and trusted each other." - Sara [Check out our 130+ Google reviews here](https://www.google.com/maps/place/EPIC+LLAMA/@29.4255256,-41.3746386,3z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0xf758abc88e22289c!8m2!3d29.4255256!4d-41.3746386?sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiAydX55IP9AhWWQjABHejpCCkQ_BJ6BAhWEAg&coh=164777&entry=tt&shorturl=1)[ ](https://goo.gl/maps/TpZy77bfPFkGoikn7)💛 *(these are real humans, we promise!)* **🤓 FAQ** **• What's the age range?** Most people who come to our events are between 24 and 40 years old.

So are you a cybersecurity professional looking to connect with like-minded professionals, share experiences, and make friends? Look no further! **Transforming Classical Encryption to Post-Quantum Encryption for Financial Services** Quantum computing is set to break today’s encryption, creating urgent risks for financial institutions.

Revan cover practical steps to become quantum-ready without disrupting existing systems, with a focus on balancing security, compliance, and operational continuity. **What you’ll learn:** • Why the quantum threat is already relevant today, not just in the future • How classical encryption (RSA, ECC) will be impacted • Why hybrid post-quantum cryptography is the safest transition path • The role of cryptographic visibility (CBOM) in managing risk • How regulations like DORA and NIS2 are accelerating adoption • How early adoption can strengthen security and create competitive advantage **About the Speaker: Revan Ande** is a security researcher and founder of RivicQ, a startup focused on advancing next-generation cryptographic solutions.

**Zwischen Klarheit und Empathie: Die Kunst der Bewertungsrede** Feedback geben – das passiert nicht nur auf der Bühne. Im Job, im Team, im Alltag: Wer klar und einfühlsam kommunizieren kann, hinterlässt Eindruck. Aber wie kritisiert man, ohne zu verletzen – und lobt, ohne zu schmeicheln? In diesem praxisnahen Workshop zeigt uns **Gabi Brähler**, langjährige Meisterrednerin, wie konstruktives Feedback wirklich funktioniert. Kommt mit euren Fragen, macht euch Notizen – und geht mit konkreten Werkzeugen nach Hause, die ihr sofort einsetzen könnt. ✍️ 📍 **Wo und wann?** Im Clubraum in der Trinitatis Gemeinde (1. OG Hinterhaus – durch den Hof). Unsere Treffen folgen einem klaren, motivierenden Ablauf, der dir Sicherheit und Raum zum Ausprobieren gibt. 📌 **Neugierig geworden?** Dann schau vorbei – wir freuen uns auf dich!

We’re bringing back Adult Field Day. Last year was a good mix of competition and just hanging out, so we’re doing it again with some new games mixed in. Think team-based challenges, simple races, and a few things inspired by game shows. You don’t need to be athletic. Most of the fun is just being part of a team and getting to know people you wouldn’t normally talk to. The goal isn’t really winning. It’s meeting people, laughing a bit, and leaving knowing a few more names than when you showed up. If you stick around after, we’ll have a potluck, a bonfire, and a couple comedians in the evening. Bring: * Something to share for the potluck * Clothes you can move around in A small contribution helps keep events sustainable and ensures those who RSVP actually show up. Include your Meetup name + event name in the note. Please send $2 per person to guarantee your spot. Venmo (preferred) or PayPal @WiseUnlimitedLLC Actual links in comments below! Include your Meetup name + event name in the note.
