Ez az egynapos hackathon fejlesztőket, AI-rajongókat és innovátoroket hoz össze, hogy gyakorlati megoldásokat építsenek agentic AI segítségével – olyan rendszereket, amelyek önállóan képesek meghatározott célok elérésére törekedni. A résztvevők csapatokban dolgoznak majd valós AI-alkalmazások tervezésén és prototípusának elkészítésén, majd bemutatják projektjeiket egy szakmai zsűrinek az iparágból.
Az esemény összeköti az egyetemi hallgatókat a tech-ökoszisztémával gyakorlati kihívásokon, mentorálással és technikai előadásokon keresztül.
A résztvevők legfeljebb 5 fős csapatokban dolgoznak, ezért gondoskodj arról, hogy csapatod változatos tudással rendelkezzen – például fejlesztés, adattudomány, AI, termékgondolkodás és prezentáció terén.

Budapest Science Meetup – Április
*All the presentations are in Hungarian. Thanks for your understanding!*
Fél évszázad után visszatért az emberiség a Holdhoz, miután az Artemis–2 négy űrhajósa kedden hajnalban elhaladt az égitest mellett. De miért lett újra érdekes a Hold? Pacher Tibor, a Puli Space Technologies vezetője elmondja.
A Hold után egy másik nagyon aktuális témáról, az inváziós fajok és kártevők által jelentett kihívásról hallhattok a HUN-REN Ökológiai Kutatóközpont kutatójától, Halassy Melindától.
Részletes program:
**A holdi víz nyomában avagy mit keres a Puli a Holdon?**
*Pacher Tibor – Puli Space Technologies, ügyvezető igazgató*
**Új fajok, új kihívások – Az inváziós fajok terjedése és kezelési lehetőségei**
*Halassy Melinda – HUN-REN Ökológiai Kutatóközpont, Ökológiai és Botanikai Intézet*
Mi a hasonlóság a homoki prérifű, az ázsiai tigrisszúnyog és a mosómedve között? Egyik sem őshonos a Kárpát-medencében, ám újabban gyorsan terjednek. Az inváziós fajok megjelenése ma már alapvetően formálja környezetünket, és kihívást jelent a természet, a gazdaság és az emberi egészség számára is. A folyamat teljesen nem állítható meg, hiszen a globalizáció és az emberi mobilitás folyamatosan új fajok megjelenésének kedvez. Ugyanakkor a terjedés üteme lassítható, a hatások mérsékelhetők, ami időt ad a természetnek és a társadalomnak az alkalmazkodásra. Hazai példákon keresztül bemutatjuk, hogyan zajlik az inváziós folyamat, és hol miképpen lehet még hatékonyan beavatkozni, hogy időt nyerjünk az alkalmazkodáshoz.

CBusData: The Fellowship of the Star Schema: Transforming OLTP Data for Power BI
The Fellowship of the Star Schema: Transforming OLTP Data for Power BI
One does not simply build reports on OLTP data. Join us on an epic journey from the depths of raw, normalized tables to the shining halls of a well-modeled star schema fit for Power BI greatness. We will demystify the differences between OLTP and OLAP, walk through star schema vs snowflake (and why Power BI has a clear favorite), and show you the compression differences between normalized and columnar storage that will make you never look at an OLTP model the same way again.
We will cover the different types of dimensions, when to use them, and how to handle Slowly Changing Dimensions without losing your mind. You will leave knowing exactly how to identify a bad model, how to convert OLTP data into a clean star schema, and how to forge relationships that rule them all.
Whether you are a data wizard, a curious hobbit, or somewhere in between, your models will never be the same.
What If Your AI Could Be a Team? - Chad Green
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you.
The building address is 4450 Bridge Park
The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400
You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge.
**Abstract**
GitHub Copilot is powerful, but what if you could scale from a solo AI assistant to an entire team of specialized agents working in parallel? 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.
