Ping pong #67 🏓- Wednesday - Renti
**Same stuff, always fun! **
ℹ️ **General info:**
Bats (rackets) & balls are provided by the venue (are included in the price).
The ping-pong tables have an hourly cost of 8€/hour, per table. Usually we pay 5-6€/person for the whole 1.5 hours. PLEASE, bring some cash on you, unless you have Revolut or IRIS (nope, a 50€ euro bill does not count).
**Location**:
The venue cannot be reached by metro, so you have to either take a bus or **carpool** with any attending member that will arrive via car.
ℹ️ Bus options should be fairly good, since the venue is next to a big amusement park & a mall.
ℹ️ Personally, I'll always be coming via car, so I'll have 4 available spots in my car. I can pick you from:
* **Egaleo** metro station, blue line,
* **Sepolia** metro station, red line,
* **Pallini** metro/train station
❗️ If you plan to attend via car and are willing to carpool people, please let me/us know in a PM or event discussion!
❗️ People getting carpooled should be in the agreed location **5 minutes earlier**, so that the driver is not made to wait! No excuses, just be on time (or else people won't offer to carpool any more in the future )!
OPTIONAL: Afterwards, we sometimes go at a nearby gyros/fast food restaurant something to eat.
⚡️ Feel free to follow the group [on Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/groups/athenssportsfunactivities/)! ⚡️

AI, Curiosity & a Bit of Chaos with Workable
Register for free **ONLY** here: https://friends.figma.com/events/details/figma-athens-presents-ai-curiosity-amp-a-bit-of-chaos-with-workable/ 🚀
**Τhree designers, three short talks, and one shared obsession.👀**
Avra, Margarita, and Stefania from Workable are pulling back the curtain on what happens when AI enters the design process, and doesn't leave quietly.
Through three case studies — an AI agent, a UX game built from data, and Workable Reporting — they'll uncover how AI can expand creativity, speed up prototyping, and introduce a fair bit of chaos along the way.
*No hype. No magic tricks. Just real experiments, a few failures, and lessons learned the hard way.*
Come find out.

**And one more thing:** we're excited to announce a new collaboration with **Mobbin**, a curated library of real app UI screenshots and flows, built for designers who want fast, quality inspiration. Everyone who attends walks away with free Mobbin merch and a discount code to start exploring!

Columbus Code & Coffee 84 @ Improving
Columbus Code & Coffee is an inclusive, informal co-working session. People of all skill levels attend, and we love it that way. Many people (optionally) bring projects to work on, and many other people (optionally) socialize the entire time. It's entirely up to you!
**What to Expect at the Intro Circle**
\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~
Near the beginning of the event (1:30 pm), we do a standup:
* Organizer announcements, updates, and logistics
Round 1 - (7 secs max):
* Your name
* What you're working on
* What you can help others with
Round 2:
* Community events you wanna plug. If none, that's cool too.
Round 3:
* Job opportunities you're hiring for OR announce that you are looking for one. If none, that's cool.
After the introduction circle, everything is self-organized! Feel free to work alone, pair up, attend one of our workshops/presentations, or mingle!
Data & Analytics Wednesday - Google Analytics Alternatives
**Google Analytics Alternatives**
Is it finally time to make the switch away from Google Analytics? Two-and-a-half years ago Jason Packer asked this question at Columbus Web Analytics Wednesday.
Since then: Google’s Universal Analytics has been sunset, we’ve changed our name to Columbus Data & Analytics Wednesday, and Jason has released two editions of his book “Google Analytics Alternatives”.
Fresh off the release of the 2nd edition of his book, we thought it was time to re-open this conversation. While people love to complain about it, GA’s market share has remained relatively constant (at least in the United States). Why is that? You won’t find any complaints about GA4 in this talk, but rather an overview of what’s currently available in the market and how to frame your decision-making process.
We’ll also be giving out some free copies of Jason’s book! So even if you’ve got a “GA4Lyfe” tattoo (no judgement), there’s free books to go with the free pizza and beer.
