Startup Incubation

**Open Coding Night** Ti va di allenarti con il TDD provando qualche Kata? Vuoi provare il *vibe coding*? Hai un progetto personale che non riesci mai a portare avanti? Oppure ti piacerebbe imparare Rust, Zig, Haskell o qualche altro linguaggio? **Open Coding Night** è un formato anti-procrastinazione libero e non limitato al solo TDD: ci si trova la sera insieme ad altre persone curiose e motivate, per finalmente dare spazio alle proprie idee e sperimentare. **Come Partecipare** Porta con te un’idea, un esercizio, un progetto o una tecnologia che vuoi provare. Troverai una scrivania e un monitor a tua disposizione per metterti subito all’opera. Non hai un obiettivo preciso ma ti piace lasciarti guidare dalla serendipità? Nessun problema: puoi unirti a chi vuole condividere la propria attività e lavorare insieme. **Programma** * **19:00 – 21:30** meetup aperto * **19:30** breve giro di presentazioni: chi c’è, cosa vuole fare, a cosa vuole aggregarsi * **19:45 – 21:15**: focus time, ma siete liberi di muovervi, esplorare e fare domande in giro. * **21:15** mini-retrospective su cosa è stato fatto * Dalle **21:30** in poi, libertà totale: puoi tornare a casa o unirti a chi ha voglia di andare a cena insieme! \-\-\- We are open to English speaking participants: **Open Coding Night** Do you feel like practicing TDD by trying out some Katas? Want to try vibe coding? Do you have a personal project you never manage to move forward? Or would you like to learn Rust, Zig, Haskell, or some other language? **Open Coding Night** is an anti-procrastination format not limited only to TDD: you meet in the evening with other curious and motivated people to finally give space to your ideas and experiment. **How to participate** Bring an idea, an exercise, a project, or a technology you want to try. You’ll find a desk and a monitor at your disposal so you can get to work right away. Don’t have a specific goal but enjoy being guided by serendipity? No problem: you can join those who want to share their activity and work together. **Schedule** * **19:00 – 21:30** open meetup * **19:30** short round of introductions: who’s here, what they want to do, what they want to join * **19:45 – 21:15:** focus time, but you’re free to move around, explore, and ask questions. * **21:15** mini-retrospective on what was done * From **21:30** onward, total freedom: you can go home or join those who feel like going out for dinner together!

**Are you ready for the Milano–Cortina Winter Olympics? We’re not.** **That’s why we’ve created our very own Ostello Bello "Olympic" Games: a glorious display of questionable athletic skills and high-level nonsense.** While the "other" guys are busy with the official **Milano-Cortina 2026** ceremonies, we’re bringing the real "action" to the streets of Milan. From February 6th, we aren't gathering to break world records; we’re gathering to break the laws of physics. This isn’t about the podium; it’s about the survival of the chillest. Get your "winter" gear ready, because we’re about to prove that being an elite athlete is 10% talent and 90% just showing up for the vibes. **The Incentive:** Every participant gets a **shot**. The "legends" who actually win take home an **Ostello Bello T-shirt or a Drink**. ## The Disciplines: Official "Technical" Standards Every day from **7 PM to 9 PM**, our "athletes" will face a rotating schedule of these elite winter disciplines: ### 1\. Air Hockey: The Wrist\-Flick Battle A high-speed duel where the only thing frozen is your gaze on the puck. * **The Goal:** Smash the plastic disc into the hole. * **Requirement:** Move your hand faster than your brain can process and celebrate every point like you’ve just secured a gold medal. ### 2\. Boxing\-Glove Beer Pong: The Clumsy Champion Challenge We took a classic and made it impossible by adding the "Yeti factor." * **The Twist:** You have to play wearing massive, padded boxing gloves. * **The Challenge:** Gripping a tiny ball with giant hands is the ultimate test of patience. Success here is statistically unlikely and basically a miracle. ### 3\. DIY Curling: The Professional Slide The most serious-looking sport in our program. We’ve replaced expensive stones with pots and ice with felt pads, but the tension is real. * **The Setup:** A "House" (target) taped on the floor and a "Hog Line" for the release. * **The Action:** Launch the pot while your teammates run alongside it with brooms, screaming *"Hurry! Hard!"* just like in the real tournaments. * **The Score:** Closest pot to the center wins. Clean floors are a bonus. ### BONUS DAY: The "Wildcard" Game The discipline is a mystery. Our local legends will choose the challenge. Expect the unexpected: and probably more shots. **AND REPEAT.**

Sono proprietario di un bar e dispongo di un tavolo da biliardo semi-professionale. Sto creando un gruppo WhatsApp di giocatori amatoriali di biliardo americano pool/carambola, per la maggior parte debuttanti. Cerco persone disposte a unirsi al gruppo per giocare e divertirsi nel tempo libero, il pomeriggio oppure la sera in ogni giorno. Per stimolare l'impegno di ogni giocatore, abbiamo pattuito che il vincitore di ogni "mini-torneo" organizzato nei vari giorni giochi gratis e non paghi la tariffa di tempo per il periodo di gioco (un'ora di gioco costa 10€, ma viene di volta in volta frazionata in base al periodo di gioco effettivo). Il locale si trova in zona nord di Milano, stazione Greco-Pirelli, università Bicocca. Chiunque dovesse essere davvero interessato a partecipare e unirsi al mio gruppo, non esiti a contattarmi. Cerco persone serie e disposte solamente a divertirsi, senza puntare mazzette grazie mille. Antonio

Costruire una data platform in contesti enterprise è spesso una battaglia quotidiana. Dati duplicati, pipeline fragili e trasformazioni poco tracciabili. Processi di sviluppo sul dato difficili da testare, versionare e rilasciare in sicurezza. Cataloghi presenti ma scollegati dai flussi reali, governance dichiarata ma non operativa. Piattaforme che crescono nel tempo, aumentando complessità e perdita di controllo. Il paradigma Data Lakehouse open source promette ordine, scalabilità e flessibilità — ma come si traduce davvero in produzione, quando entrano in gioco: \- requisiti enterprise \- qualità del dato \- testing \- CI/CD \- governance reale \- responsabilità e ownership? 👉 Questo meetup nasce per rispondere a questa domanda, partendo da un caso d’uso reale, sviluppato e messo in produzione. **Agenda** * 18:30 – 18:45 **Benvenuto e Networking** * 18:45 – 19: 40 **Lakehouse Open Source in produzione: architettura, governance e developer experience in un caso reale** * 19:40 – 20:00 **Community Slot** (Proponi il tuo talk) * 20:00 – 20:30 **Q&A e Saluti** Registrati subito al meetup per ricevere tutti gli aggiornamenti sull'agenda. **Lakehouse Open Source in produzione: architettura, governance e developer experience in un caso reale** Il paradigma del data lakehouse open source rappresenta oggi una scelta strategica anche in contesti enterprise complessi. In questo meetup presenteremo uno use case reale, mostrando come sia possibile costruire una data platform moderna basata su tecnologie open source. Il talk si concentrerà sull’adozione di pratiche data-driven e developer-oriented, evidenziando il ruolo di **dbt** nel garantire replicabilità, qualità del dato, testing e integrazione con pipeline CI/CD. A completare il quadro, affronteremo i temi di data governance e data discovery attraverso **DataHub** e **OpenMetadata**, illustrando come un data catalog centralizzato abiliti tracciabilità, ownership e governance nel dato. Un percorso pratico per portare i data lakehouse open source verso una vera data platform moderna che possa rispondere a esigenze enterprise reali. **Lorenzo Pasco - Data Engineer @Seacom Società Benefit:** Laureato in Artificial Intelligence and Data Engineering a Pisa, fin da giovane, ho alimentato la mia passione per l’informatica e i videogiochi, unendo la tecnologia alla mia vita quotidiana. Al di là del digitale, il mio cuore batte per lo sport, in particolare il calcio, e sperimento la creatività in cucina. **Se stai cercando di capire come rendere i Data Lakehouse davvero “enterprise-ready”, questo meetup è l’occasione per confrontarti su un’esperienza reale, fatta di architettura, codice, governance e persone.** Come sempre, ci sarà ampio spazio per il confronto, le domande e le discussioni aperte

**Hello PyData People!** We are excited to announce our **second event of 2026**! This time, we will be hosted at **iliad Italia**'s headquarters in Milan for an evening dedicated to AI at scale—ranging from Foundation Models for credit risk to sovereign and open-source data architectures. 📅 **When:** Wednesday, February 18, 2026 📍 **Where:** iliad Italia, Viale Francesco Restelli, 1A, 20124 · Milano **⚠️ Important:** Spots are limited. Please keep your RSVP updated to allow others to participate if you can no longer attend. *** ## 🕒 Agenda * **18:30:** 🚪 Doors open & Check-in * **19:00:** 🎤 **Talk 1:** Open Source & Sovereign Architecture – Riccardo Lorenzon * **19:45:** 🎤 **Talk 2:** Klarna’s Foundation Model – Valeria Verzi, Sudhakar Periyasamy, Goran Dizdarevic * **20:30:** 🍕 **Networking & Aperitivo** offered by Iliad! *** ## 🎤 The Talks ## 1️⃣An Open Source and Sovereign Architecture for Data, ML and AI **Speaker:** Riccardo Lorenzon (Head of Data @ iliad Italia) Iliad Group invests billions in sovereign AI ecosystems, open-source tech, and low-carbon data centers to reduce reliance on non-European providers and bolster Europe's technological autonomy. True to Iliad Group's 'make-over-buy' culture of full control, iliad Italia is building a data architecture in a hybrid on-prem and Scaleway (Iliad Group cloud) setup, combining open-source tech and managed services. This powers data management, self-service analytics, and ML/AI use cases for our 12m+ user base and 1000+ employees. During this speech, we will guide you through the tech journeys we have built and are building. **About the Speaker:** Riccardo Lorenzon serves as Head of Data at iliad Italia, where he works on evolving the data function into a modern setup covering the full data value chain from sources to business decisions. He previously led data teams at Vedrai, an AI startup, and Whirlpool EMEA, handling projects in analytics, machine learning, and cloud platforms across areas like consumer service, supply chain, and sales. With a Master’s in Mathematical Engineering from Politecnico di Milano and studies at ETH Zürich, he combines a hands-on approach to delivery with a strong focus on strategic value for the business. *** ## 2️⃣ Building the Klarna Foundation Model: A Unified Transformer for Customer Behavior Modeling at Scale **Speaker:** Valeria Verzi (Principal Data Scientist @ Klarna), Sudhakar Periyasamy, Goran Dizdarevic In this session, we introduce Klarna’s Foundation Model (KFM): a lightweight Transformer trained on more than 130 million customer events to learn a unified representation of customer behavior. Rather than building separate, task-specific models, KFM operates as a common sequence-modeling backbone that encodes behavioral patterns across different touchpoints of a customer’s interaction history with Klarna. We will walk through the technical design of the system, including event tokenization, sequence construction, and Transformer architecture, as well as how the learned embeddings are exposed as a shared layer for multiple downstream use cases. Attendees will gain a concrete understanding of how foundation models can be applied to behavioral sequence data in fintech, and how a single model can serve as a reusable, extensible representation layer across heterogeneous modeling tasks. **About the Speaker:** Valeria Verzi is a Principal AI Scientist at Klarna, where she leads the development of next-generation models, from foundation models to advanced deep learning or agentic systems. She has nearly a decade of experience applying machine learning to high-stakes decisioning across fintech and insurance. Before her current role, Valeria served as Klarna’s Head of Data Science for Fraud Prevention. Prior to Klarna, she held senior data science roles at Generali and NTT Data. Valeria holds a Master’s degree in Computer Science Engineering from Politecnico di Milano. *** See you there! 🚀 *The PyData Milano Team*

Join the Columbus AI community for our quarterly gathering — a casual, community-focused evening where everyone has a chance to share, learn, and connect. These open mic–style events give anyone in the community up to **5 minutes** to present a project, share a tool, pose a question, or offer a perspective on the evolving AI space. No slides required — just a welcoming space to exchange ideas and keep the local AI conversation moving. If you’d like to take the stage, message **Chris (the organizer)** with a **title and short description** of what you’d like to share. Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus. Sponsored by [Transform Labs](https://www.transformlabs.com/services)
