**☕️ The Barcelona Coffee Rave – powered by Barcelona Techies x Nomad House ☕️** ​This isn’t your average morning coffee meetup — it’s a **rave before noon**! Forget hangovers. Here, **coffee replaces alcohol**, mornings turn into dance floors, and strangers become friends before your second espresso kicks in. To join, you have to purchase tickets in advance on Luma [https://luma.com/h02bpcld](https://luma.com/2ytj1ih8) ​**What’s brewing:** * ​Coffee (obviously) * ​High-energy DJ sets (lineup TBA — expect some *muy fuego* beats) * ​A mix of digital nomads, techies, dreamers, and doers * ​Free pastries sponsored by **Barcelona Techies** (first come, first devoured) * ​Free self‑service coat racks ​This edition is **indoors**, and it *will* get warm — so dress light, hydrate, and come ready to move. Dress code: **coffee tones** ☕️ — think browns, blacks, creams, espresso vibes. ​**Why come?** Because who said you can’t rave, meet awesome people, and build your professional network *before lunch*? Whether you’re solo or rolling in with friends, you’ll end up dancing with someone you met five minutes ago — and probably adding them on LinkedIn later. ​The event is **16+** and perfect for anyone who loves music, creative energy, and Barcelona’s digital spirit — without the hangover. Start your Saturday right downstairs at **Nomad House**, grab your flat white, and discover the coworking community that’s redefining the city’s tech scene. ​Let’s make Barcelona mornings cooler, one beat (and one brew) at a time.

This helps us ensure the right group size, adapt our group dynamics, and prepare the perfect amount of food!* (*Note: The actual number of attendees is higher than what shows here on Meetup. We promote this workshop across different channels like Instagram and our Website*) 🌟 **Special Guest from USA:** David, founder of Starks Insights, is traveling from the USA to co-facilitate. 🗣️ **Bilingual (EN / ES):** Language won't be a barrier. On-the-spot translation will be provided when necessary (and remember, this experience goes *beyond words*). **About the experience:** When relating to others, speech usually takes all the center stage. This leaves in the background relational languages that we all know, which are the ones that truly connect us with one another. In this Relational Laboratory, we propose lowering the volume of the mind and speech. We will explore universal languages that don’t need words—such as presence, movement, and gaze. A chance to experience a cleaner, deeper, and more authentic connection. **The event flow:** **1\. Gestalt Dynamics \(2 hours\):** Step out of autopilot to the here and now. Speech will take a back seat to give priority to a deeper way of relating. (No previous experience required). **2\. Aperitivo / Pica\-pica \(1 hour\):** We will close by enjoying a snack together and sharing our experience. 📲 **Booking via** **WhatsApp:** **[+34 692 188 927](https://wa.me/34692188927?text=Hi!%20I%20would%20like%20to%20book%20a%20spot%20for%20Connections%20%26%20Brunch.)** **[Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/starksinsights/)** *** **[ESPAÑOL]** Gestalt para conectar, compartir y disfrutar. *Edición Especial:* **Más allá de las palabras** *¿Qué sucede cuando el lenguaje hablado deja de ser el centro?* 💰 **Aportación:** 20€ (Pica-pica Incluido) – Bizum / Revolut / Efectivo 👥 **Plazas:** Limitadas a 25 📲 **Cómo reservar:** Por favor, **envíanos un WhatsApp** para confirmar tu plaza.

Promocionamos este taller en varios canales como Instagram y nuestra Web*) 🌟 **Invitado especial desde USA:** David, fundador de Starks Insights, viaja desde USA para cofacilitar. 🗣️ **Bilingüe** (EN / ES)**:** El idioma no será una barrera. Se facilitará traducción en el momento cuando sea necesario (y recuerda que esta experiencia va *más allá de las palabras*). **Sobre la experiencia:** Al relacionarnos, solemos darle todo el espacio a las palabras. Esto deja en un segundo plano lenguajes relacionales que todos conocemos, que son los que verdaderamente nos conectan con los demás. En este Laboratorio Relacional proponemos bajar el volumen de la mente y del habla. Exploraremos lenguajes universales que no necesitan palabras, como la presencia, el movimiento y la mirada. Una oportunidad para experimentar una conexión más limpia, profunda y auténtica. El flujo del evento: **1\. Dinámicas Gestalt \(2 horas\):** Saldremos del piloto automático hacia el aquí y el ahora. Las palabras cederán el espacio para dar prioridad a una forma de relacionarnos más auténtica. (No se requiere experiencia previa). **2\. Pica\-pica / Aperitivo \(1 hora\):** Cerraremos compartiendo y disfrutando juntos de un pica-pica relajado. 📲 **Reserva por WhatsApp:** **[+34 692 188 927](https://wa.me/34692188927?text=Hi!%20I%20would%20like%20to%20book%20a%20spot%20for%20Connections%20%26%20Brunch.)** **[Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/starksinsights/)**

⚡ Reset your direction. Meet someone unexpected. Walk away with fresh clarity. Join us for a relaxed **small-group afternoon event** that blends a light **Inner Coach conversation experience** with a **community potluck lunch**. In February we hosted our first **Inner Coach event**, and many attendees said it helped them notice something powerful — the voice inside that quietly guides better decisions when life gets complicated. This event builds on that idea. Instead of overthinking the past, we’ll explore how to **reset direction for what’s next** — through thoughtful conversation, new perspectives, and the kind of questions that spark real insight. We’ll start with a few short conversation rounds designed to spark reflection, humor, and perspective — and then continue the discussion over food and relaxed conversation. Think **good food, grounded people, and real conversations about what comes next in life.** Held in our **Startup Garage** — a bright, comfortable living-room style space inside a single-family home. (Couches, food, conversation — **not an actual garage** 😊) *** ## **🥘 Potluck Lunch** If you're able, bring something small to share. Homemade or store-bought — both welcome. A dish you enjoy making. A dish that always works Or simply something easy from the store If you're busy, come anyway — the goal is **community, not perfection**. We’ll share a relaxed **afternoon potluck lunch** while continuing meaningful conversations with people navigating their next chapter. *** ## **What You’ll Experience** • Light conversation rounds designed to spark insight • Fresh perspectives from people navigating similar life transitions • Humor, perspective, and grounded conversation • A relaxed environment where ideas and connections happen naturally *** ## **Who Typically Attends** • Professionals in their 30s–40s–50s • Entrepreneurs and builders • Divorced or separated individuals navigating what’s next • People who prefer thoughtful conversation over surface-level small talk Whether you're **resetting direction, building something new, or simply meeting grounded people**, this event is designed for honest connection and fresh perspective. *** Most attendees are navigating life and growth with **curiosity, clarity, and a sense of humor.** 📍 Hosted in a spacious living-room setting inside a single-family home (Ashburn – 20147).

**Agenda :** * 4.45 to 5.00 PM ET: Food and Networking * 5.00 to 5.50 PM ET: "Hands-On : GitHub Copilot SpecKit" Hello Everyone! Please join us for our April 14th edition of the AI-ML MeetUp. **Please note this is an in-person meeting and light refreshments/food will be provided. You will need a government-issued ID to enter the facility.** **Title:** Hands-On : GitHub Copilot SpecKit **Description:** Spec-Driven Development **flips the script** on traditional software development. For decades, code has been king — specifications were just scaffolding we built and discarded once the "real work" of coding began. Spec-Driven Development changes this: **specifications become executable**, directly generating working implementations rather than just guiding them. In this hands-on lab, we will be covering building your application using SpecKit. Pre-requisites: VSCode v1.107, GitHub Copilot, Python 3.13 + uv, Git installed. **Location:** The meeting will be hosted in the Applied Information Sciences ( AIS ) office in Reston, at 11440 Commerce Park Dr # 600 · Reston, VA. The location is also right off the Silver Line metro's Wiehle-Reston Metro Station. **Parking:** Parking is paid and can be validated at the AIS office reception. We will meet in Room Lake Anne. We hope to see you all there!!!!

Attendance is $35 (cash, credit/debit card, or ApplePay - paid at the door), which includes water/soda/coffee, bread, choice of a plated lunch entrée, and a dessert assortment. Parking is also validated in the Reston Station garages (3 hours of validation). Join one of Northern Virginia's most successful business networking groups (part of BNI). Open to the public and is typically attended by business owners, business developers, and entrepreneurs. Meetings are typically attended by 30-40 members and guests. \*\*\*PLEASE RSVP here: [REGISTER HERE](https://square.link/u/0WvC6Eir) \*\*\*If you do not register on the BNI website, there may not be a seat available for you.
