Software Development

***(Note that all reservations need to be finalized on EventBrite to receive the link for access. See the bottom of this event description.)*** An intimate, online speaker event featuring two solopreneurs who have crossed oceans to build something new, personally and professionally. What does it really take to start a business in a country that is not your own? This event brings together two immigrants who arrived in the Netherlands, actively building businesses from the ground up. They come from different continents, different professional worlds, and different cultural contexts, and they share a common drive to create, contribute, and connect in their new home. Through candid conversation and personal storytelling, our speakers will explore what it means to be solopreneurs in the Netherlands (and worldwide, virtually): the challenges of navigating an unfamiliar market, the advantages of a fresh perspective, and the practical tools and strategies that are shaping the next generation of one-person businesses. **Topics of Discussion** *Making the Leap: Immigration & Entrepreneurship* *Building a Solopreneur Business in the Netherlands* *The Future of One-Person Businesses* **This event has been designed with whole heart and mind for:** * Aspiring and current solopreneurs curious about AI-driven and people-centered business models * Immigrants and expats in the Netherlands exploring entrepreneurship as a path forward * Business owners seeking fresh perspectives on courses, systems, and operational tools * Professionals interested in the intersection of organizational development and technology Whether you are new to another country, new to business ownership, or simply looking for inspiration and practical insight, this event offers honest, experience-driven conversation from two people doing the work in real time. **ABOUT THE SPEAKERS** **🇮🇷 Ahad Saeidi, DBA, PhD (Iran)** **Background:** DBA in Fintech (University of Tehran), PhD in Material Science, and 10+ years as a VP in venture capital.

Welcome to another Angular NL meetup! Tonight we have a great talk lined up on AI and how it's changing the way we build with Angular. Grab a drink, say hi to familiar faces, and enjoy the evening. 18:00 — Doors open & 🍕 Pizza, drinks and catching up 18:30 — Welcome 18.30 - Beyond the Code: what really makes a Senior Developer? Abstract: What actually makes someone a senior developer? Technical expertise is often the first thing that comes to mind. But real seniority goes beyond code. It combines strong engineering skills with communication, coaching, and the ability to create alignment within teams. Whether it’s refactoring existing code, improving developer experience, or helping a team adopt newer Angular approaches (like Signals), these changes often require more than technical knowledge alone. In this talk, Nicky Haze shares practical lessons from years of frontend development and consulting, showing how technical and human skills together create real impact in software teams. 19.30 From pixel perfect design to code Turning a design into code that truly matches the original is often harder than it looks. Small differences in spacing, typography, and layout can quickly turn a polished design into an interface that feels “almost right.” In this talk, we explore how developers can leverage AI to bridge the gap between design and implementation. We’ll look at practical ways AI can assist in translating design files into code, speeding up repetitive UI work. From interpreting design sto generating components and refining layouts, the session focuses on how AI can augment the developer workflow. 20:30 — Q&A 20:45 — Drinks & mingling

**Van hype naar toepasbare waarde** AI is overal. Maar voor veel organisaties blijft de vraag: *wat betekent dit concreet voor mijn product, mijn team en mijn organisatie?* Tijdens deze meetup van het **InnSpire Product Management Gilde** duiken we in hoe AI daadwerkelijk wordt toegepast binnen organisaties. Niet als hype of experiment, maar als onderdeel van werkprocessen en productontwikkeling. ### **Lennard Kruseman (spreker)** Lennard neemt ons mee in de realiteit van AI binnen organisaties. Wat betekent AI nu écht in de praktijk? Waar zitten de grootste misverstanden en risico’s? En hoe kun je AI op een veilige en schaalbare manier integreren in bestaande processen? *Aan de hand van concrete praktijkcases laat Lennard zien wat vandaag al mogelijk is en waar organisaties tegenaan lopen.* ### **Michiel Dekker (spreker)** Daarnaast vertelt Michiel over **AI discovery**. Want voordat je AI implementeert, moet je eerst begrijpen welk probleem je eigenlijk oplost. Hoe ontdek je waar AI waarde kan toevoegen binnen je product of organisatie? ### **Voor wie is deze meetup?** Deze avond is bedoeld voor professionals die werken met digitale producten en technologie, zoals: * Product Owners & Product Managers * Software Engineers & Architects * Agile Coaches & Scrum Masters * Digital & Innovation Leads ### **Wat kun je verwachten?** * Twee inhoudelijke talks uit de praktijk * Nieuwe inzichten over AI in organisaties * Ruimte voor vragen en discussie * Netwerken met vakgenoten * Een gezellige borrel * En natuurlijk wat te eten tussen de lezingen door 📍 **Locatie:** InnSpire HQ, Woerden

Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at Factor-ij Amsterdam on Thursday mornings. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. SCHEDULE: 11: 15 AM - Quick introductions 11: 30 AM - Timer starts: write for 1 hour 12: 30 PM - The End: chat, take off, or keep writing OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens at 12:30 pm after the writing is wrapped. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. BEING LATE IS OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check-in with me after the session. (I’ll be the person with the Shut Up & Write! sign.) If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you at Factor-ij! What Should I Bring? Whatever you need to be able to write! Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block the cafe’s overhead music or the occasional conversation by other patrons. Please come with your devices pre-charged, since we probably won't be always sitting somewhere with charging possibilities. Other Important Details: Travel by public transportation: 1. Take Tram 26 from the central station Amsterdam, and step out by the last stop. 2. Take bus 66 from the Amsterdam Bijlmer station, step out by Pieter Oosterhuisstraat, and further walk in the direction of the bus till the corner. FREE Wifi. Compulsory consumption is not required, but please do order a drink to honor our generous host.

This session introduces Squad: an open-source framework for multi-agent orchestration that lets you define teams of AI agents with specific roles, responsibilities, and expertise. We'll progress from Copilot basics to the Copilot CLI, explore how Agents add autonomy, and see how Instructions and Skills let you customize agent behavior. Then, the climax: a live demo where a Squad team of 3 agents (Lead, Developer, Tester) stands up and builds a working application in real-time, showcasing true multi-agent collaboration. Whether you're new to AI or exploring how to scale your use of Copilot, this session will show you what's possible when agents work as a team. **YouTube Link** TBD
