GenAI x Chips: Vienna Roundtable — From Silicon to Agents (DACH) A relaxed, no-slides group dialogue on AI compute (Cerebras, SiPearl/EU) and agentic LLM adoption (LangChain, LlamaIndex) for the Austrian and DACH community. WHAT An informal, small-room conversation about the full GenAI stack—from chips and compute choices to real-world, agentic LLM workflows. Short intros, moderated circle discussion, open Q&A. No keynotes, no long decks. WHY DACH teams are moving from pilots to production. Compute options (EU chips, on-prem vs cloud) and building reliable agentic workflows are where decisions get costly. We’ll compare notes and share what actually works. FORMAT Group dialogue under the Chatham House Rule. Hybrid: on-site in Vienna with interactive online participation. Lightning intros only (30–45 seconds each), then moderated discussion and an open fishbowl segment. WHO SHOULD JOIN • Builders and practitioners shipping LLM apps (internal or external) • Data/ML leads, CTOs/CIOs, innovation and product leaders in DACH • Ecosystem partners across compute, infra, and frameworks DATE AND TIME Tuesday, 2 September 2025, 17:00–20:00 CEST (doors 17:00) WHERE Vienna (venue TBA) + Online (stream link sent to RSVPs) INVITED GUESTS (TBD) Cerebras, SiPearl (EU chip initiative), LangChain, LlamaIndex, plus local DACH industry voices.

DANS TOUS LES CAS, MERCI de téléphoner au 0782326054 au moins 48 heures avant la Date prévue ATELIER 1 spécial COACHS : Découvrez et Apprenez à faire une vidéo qui peut servir dans le domaine marketing mais aussi un outil d'expression dans le domaine du coaching et de l'accompagnement et relation d'aide : - aide à la visualisation d'un objectif - aide à l'expression de ses conflits intérieurs - construction de métaphores (visuel, son/musique générant plus d'émotions que de simples écrits) de style "main qui écrit " et autres effets originaux pour présenter vos services en seulement 2 heures ! https://youtu.be/ckHyvBomRF8 sans logiciel coûteux à installer ! Aujourd'hui, la vidéo est presque indispensable sur internet car elle est plus facile et ludique à regarder qu'un texte à lire. Une vidéo de quelques minutes permet d'ouvrir votre chaîne Youtube et de vous amener plus de notoriété et de nouveaux clients qui ne vous auraient pas trouvé par votre site internet. Beaucoup de personnes se filment simplement eux mêmes mais leurs vidéo ne ressort pas spécialement parmi les recherches sur Youtube car elle n'est pas "originale" par rapport aux autres. Or notre cerveau aime les métaphores, les représentations symboliques liées à des mots et phrases clés. "Un bon schéma vaut mieux qu'un long discours" auquel on rajoutera : "une méthaphore visuelle" vaut mieux qu'un long discours. De plus, si vous n'aimez pas spécialement vous montrer en vidéo, ceci est la solution qui réunit les 2 atouts. Mais rien ne vous empêche aussi de rajouter quelques secondes pour dire bonjour ou vous présenter en vidéo ou avec une simple photo. En 2 heures, vous apprendrez à créer ce genre de petite vidéo très utile et - efficace au point de vue marketing - mais cela peut aussi vous servir à faire des vidéos originales et attractives pour votre site, blog ou chaîne Youtube, Facebook etc. - Vous pouvez venir avec un projet vidéo ou non - Amenez vos ordinateurs portables si vous en avez ! Durée atelier : 2 heures Heure début : 17 heures Heure fin : 19 heures Tarif : 100 € en tout - dont la moitié 50€ pour réservation obligatoire pour une question d'organisation et d'engagement mutuel afin d'éviter que des personnes s'inscrivent au Meetup et ne viennent pas sans penser à se désinscrire, ce qui est malheureusement le cas de la majorité de Meetups - réservation obligatoire au plus tard la veille de l'atelier - et les 50 € restant à régler dès votre arrivée C'est un investissement à coup sûr qui vous fera gagner beaucoup efficacité, de temps et qui vous procura un moyen de grande créativité. - Cet outil permet aussi de fabriquer "des histoires" qui peuvent très bien convenir à l'approfondissement et à l’interaction avec un enfant dans le domaine éducatif ou psychologique. D'autres ateliers auront lieu certains Jeudi soir ou Dimanche après midi, mais il est souvent mieux d'agir maintenant pour avancer vers vos objectifs ! - Cet atelier sera suivi d'un Atelier 2 spécial Coachs où chacun travaillera sur son projet personnel (optionnel) pour les personnes intéressées. Merci de préciser sur ce mur si vous pouvez venir avec votre ordinateur portable afin de prévoir le nombre de place et de postes disponibles. http://photos2.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/c/4/4/6/600_445910246.jpeg DANS TOUS LES CAS, MERCI de téléphoner au 0782326054 au moins 48 heures avant la Date prévue

Our January program is privileged to have Kristen Tregar as our speaker. Ms. Tregar is the co-author with John de Lancie (the actor who portrayed the character Q on Star Trek next generation) of a radio play depicting the events surrounding the Kitzmiller v. Dover Area School District trial. The trial decided the issue of some of the Dover school district board members attempting to insert creationism disguised as "intelligent design" into the 9th grade biology curriculum. She will discuss the trial and the process of writing the play. (Bob Leonhard has seen the play and it is riveting and tense). Ms. Tregar's bio is below: Kristen Tregar is a dramaturg, director, playwright, and theatre teacher. She earned her Ph.D. in Drama and Theatre from the UC San Diego and UC Irvine joint program. In addition, she has a MS in Forensic Science from City University of New York- John Jay College of Criminal Justice and a MA in Educational Theatre from New York University- Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development. In 2013, in collaboration with Irish colleagues, she founded *The Ireland Project*, an intercontinental devised theatre work with high school students in New York and Tallaght, Ireland. Her original short story "Far From Here" was recently published in *Stay Awhile Longer: More Scenes From Temecula Valley*. She has two rescued dogs (Kira and Harry) and she rides, competes, and foxhunts with her horses, Andromache and Baker Street Irregular. Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid.

Session Abstract **Data on Fire: A Hands-On Intro to Spark in Fabric** Curious about Apache Spark but not sure where to start? This hands-on session introduces you to Spark in Microsoft Fabric Notebooks—a powerful and accessible way to process and analyze big data using familiar tools in the Microsoft ecosystem. We’ll break down key Spark concepts like distributed computing, DataFrames, and lazy evaluation, then show how they come to life inside Fabric’s notebook experience. You’ll see practical demos that cover loading, transforming, and analyzing large datasets—while leveraging Fabric’s modern data stack, including OneLake, Dataflows, and Pipelines. You’ll also learn how to choose between Spark and pure Python notebooks in Fabric, based on execution needs, data integration, and use case fit. Whether you're a SQL pro, BI developer, or data engineer, this session will give you the tools and confidence to start using Spark in your own projects—no cluster management required. \*Please note, that we will be using Microsoft Teams for the online portion of this meeting. You may want to join a few minutes early to ensure you do not have any issues. If you are attending in person, there are large TVs at the office, and you do not need to bring a laptop or use Teams.
