No slides. No speaker. No agenda. Just developers talking shop over a cold one. This is an informal gathering for engineers, founders, and builders who are deep in the agentic coding trenches — using tools like Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Code, OpenCode, or rolling their own agent pipelines. Come swap what's actually working, what blew up in production, and what you're excited about right now. We'll be at Barcelona, and the format is simple: show up, grab a drink, and share what you know. Bring a laptop if you want to show something, but it's not required. WhatsApp Group: https://chat.whatsapp.com/GVS0bHMPIzID3Ch9lt6YsU?mode=gi_t **What we talk about (but not limited to):** *Agentic coding workflows and tooling - Prompt engineering & context engineering in practice *Multi-agent architectures and orchestration - AI-native product building *What's broken in the ecosystem and how you're working around it **Who should come:** Developers, technical founders, and AI engineers who build with (or on top of) LLMs. All levels welcome — senior devs with war stories and curious beginners both make the conversation better. **Format:** Open conversation, round-table style. Everyone teaches, everyone learns.

*Please Always contact me by whats app to book your space at the workshop, thank you!* What we' ll do You don't need to be an artist to join my creative art workshop! I'll be waiting for you outside the MACBA (The Barcelona Museum of Contemporary Art). From there, we'll take a walk to CCCB (The Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona), which has a café and co-working space. Once we get there, we'll ask for coffee/tea and get ready to embark on our creative journey! The art-making process will serve as a bridge for social and creative communication, and the theme will be centered around traveling and the things that make us vibrate. We'll start by using imagery, storytelling, and moving freely between drawing and writing to collage. We'll also work collaboratively, with each collaborator adding to a composition in sequence, allowing creativity to flow as we play. The main objective is self-expression, awakening creativity, having fun, and sharing a nice time together while colors and words come together to empower the artistic experience. I will guide you in the right direction to create something that you may have never thought of on your own, and you can take your own pace with art and bring it back home. The aim of this art workshop is to enhance your own creativity and self-expression. I will provide all the art materials, and the cost is 25 euros for a maximum of four people for a one-hour-long session. An individual session costs 40 euros. If you'd like to attend an creative art workshop please send me a message or call me to book your place. You can also arrange a different time that suits you better. Thank you very much!

Why do some goals light you up while others die the moment you write them down? Why does a robot programmed to "want" things behave nothing like a human who *actually* does? Is there, in-fact, a mathematical law behind curiosity? ​At our next Growth Lab Live, we're sitting down with one of Barcelona's leading computational neuroscientists, ​Dr. Rubén Moreno-Bote, to break open the science of motivation in a way that's genuinely useful. **[TICKETS MUST BE PURCHASED VIA LUMA TO ATTEND.](https://luma.com/ojiwgc14?utm_source=MEETUP)** ​We throw the word "motivation" around constantly but almost nobody stops to ask what it actually is. Is it a drive? A goal? A feeling? Turns out, those are very different things, and understanding the difference changes how you approach pretty much everything. ​Dr. Moreno-Bote will walk us through the neuroscience and the surprisingly elegant logic underneath it, keeping the maths friendly and the takeaways sharp. ​On the night we'll cover: * ​The real difference between drives, goals and intrinsic motivation, and why conflating them holds you back * ​The paradoxes hiding inside how we make decisions and what they reveal about how motivation actually works * ​A beginner-friendly look at the mathematics of curiosity (yes, it exists, no, you don't need a calculator) * ​Can a robot be genuinely curious? AI, Asimov's Robot Laws and what the answer means for us ​**About the speaker** ​Rubén Moreno-Bote is a Full Professor at Universitat Pompeu Fabra and director of the Theoretical and Cognitive Neuroscience Group at the Center for Brain and Cognition. His lab works at the intersection of neuroscience and AI, using physics, reinforcement learning and brain science to model how intelligent behaviour emerges. His recent research, published in Nature Communications, centres on what he calls the Maximum Occupancy Principle: a framework explaining how complex, exploratory behaviour grows out of intrinsic motivation. In short, he studies why curious, driven people act the way they do, and what the rest of us can take from that. ​**Agenda:** * ​Doors open: 7.15pm * ​Workshop starts: 7.30pm * ​Q&A session: 8.30pm * ​Drinks & Networking on the terrace: 9.00pm **Tickets: [https://luma.com/d4dhst3l?utm-source-meetup](https://luma.com/ojiwgc14?utm_source=MEETUP)** **[Growth Lab: Unlock Your Potential](https://www.growth-lab.live/)** ​​​Join us at Growth Lab, where ambitious minds gather to explore ideas that fuel personal and professional growth.

What’s that sound? A new kind of Creativity Lab. ***Bluff Lab*** *is free to attend, with advance RSVP requested at* ***[bluffeducation.org](bluffeducation.org).*** Bluff Lab is an interdisciplinary creative workshop blending improvisation, writing, and sound-play. The lab explores *bluffing* not as deception, but as a creative tool: pretending, testing, and moving forward with or without certainty. Through structured prompts and playful constraints, participants are invited to loosen habits, bypass overthinking, and access new ways of making and collaborating. We begin with an open workshop focused on presence, listening, and creative risk-taking in a supportive group setting. In the second half of the evening, participants can join or observe a playful, guided jam using material generated during the workshop. Participation is always optional. **What to expect** • Guided exercises using voice, text, movement, and sound • Individual and group-based prompts • A relaxed, process-driven environment with optional sharing • No prior experience required **Who it’s for** Creatives and “*non-creatives*,” students, professionals, performers, musicians, and anyone curious about creative process. Open to all levels and backgrounds. **Details** Language: English (instructor also fluent in Castellano; participants are welcome to write and share in any language they choose) Format: Open session / drop-in Entry: Please RSVP at [bluffeducation.org](bluffeducation.org) Cost: Free; optional pay-what-you-will donation Bring: Notebook, pen or pencil, curiosity **Doors & bar:** 18:30 **Workshop:** 19:00 – 20:20 **Jam:** 20:30 – 21:30 **Location:** The BCN Studio C/ d’Elkano 26, 01A Poble Sec, Barcelona

Being the only researcher, or part of a small research team, often means carrying the weight of user advocacy entirely on your shoulders. The Barcelona tech ecosystem is fueled by fast-moving startups and agile product teams, but that reality can sometimes leave UX researchers managing backlogs and advocating for stakeholder buy-in without a massive support system. Join us as we interview a panel of UXRs who have successfully built their company's research culture from within a lean team. We will dive into their firsthand experiences and talk through real-world playbooks for strategic roadmap influence. Expect thoughtful discussions on how to democratize your insights, scale your impact across the organization, and drive high-fidelity product decisions. Whether you are a team of one or navigating the growing pains of a small team, bring your questions, your challenges, and your stories. See you there!

Connection.** **Wildflow is a body-led electronic music experience, driven by live DJ performances and supported by breath, sound, and movement.** ​Imagine stepping into a space where you feel free, alive, and fully yourself. ​Where the music awakens something deep inside you. ​Where every breath, every beat, every glance around the room pulls you closer into connection — with yourself, with others, with life. ​✨ This is Wildflow. ​A 4-hour healing journey designed to leave you clearer, more connected, and full of life. *** ## ​**🌿 The Journey** ​**1\. Connect — Heart Awakening** ​As the sun sets, we gather in ceremony with cacao. Intentions are set, hearts are opened, and breathwork guides us into presence. A sense of unity begins to grow. ​**2\. Dance — Rhythmic Flow** ​The music invites movement: organic, tribal, and ethnic sounds that evolve into deep electronic rhythms. No choreography, no expectations — only freedom. The dancefloor is alive, constantly transforming as the night deepens. ​**3\. Heal — Energetic Release** ​What begins in grounded presence swells into intensity. The beats rise, the energy expands, the dancefloor becomes a temple of release and raw expression. You’re invited to let go, to discover new layers of yourself in the rhythm. ​**4\. Integrate — Reflective Landing** ​As the music softens, the collective energy settles. The dancefloor shifts again — from primal fire to gentle grounding. You leave balanced, uplifted, and renewed. *** ## ​**💫 Why It’s Different** ​That moment of openness you usually chase with substances? ​At Wildflow, it happens naturally. ​Through breath, cacao, music, and trust, you find yourself dropping your guard, moving with abandon, and connecting in a way that feels real, alive, and lasting. ​No alcohol. No drugs. No muchrooms. Just presence, rhythm, and pure human energy. ​✨ Come alone or with friends — you’ll be welcomed into a safe space where connection happens naturally, and you won’t leave alone. *** ## ​**🎶 Your Invitation** ​Wildflow is not just a night out. ​It’s a dancefloor with intention — a space where your natural essence takes the lead. ​Join us, and remember how good it feels to be fully awake, fully alive, and fully connected. ## ​📸 Follow us on Instagram for exclusive sneak peeks! 👀✨ ​\*\*[https://www.instagram.com/wildflow.ofc](https://www.instagram.com/wildflow.ofc)\*\* *** ​**Meet the Hosts, DJs & Guest Artists** ## **​• Henk Schepens** ​*Entrepreneur, Trauma-informed Community Builder & Visionary DJ* ​*Instagram: [@henksky](https://www.instagram.com/henksky)* ​Henk’s journey of self-discovery and healing is deeply connected to the transformative power of music.

**Total Eclipse of the Chart: School Redistricting Dashboards** In this presentation, we will explore the utilization of maps, sets, and SQL within a Tableau dashboard to help provide “what-if” analyses generated through the use of a mapped dashboard, providing different scenarios and the potential implications of these. While in this use case we are focused on a large school district, the concepts of utilizing existing data to explore the future impacts of modifying different geographic boundaries can be useful to many industries, balancing the mix of maps with visual analytics. **About Our Speaker** Robert Kramer is the Data Systems and State Reporting Coordinator at South Western City Schools in Grove City.

Practical AI for Power BI Developers A year ago, “agentic AI” was mostly hype for Power BI teams. Today, it deserves your undivided attention. For Power BI pros, there is now a real opportunity to reduce repetitive development work, accelerate delivery, and help developers do more, but only when strong DataOps practices are in place to make AI workflows effective. This session is a no-nonsense introduction to effective AI patterns for Power BI and Fabric development. Along the way, we will make sense of the growing pile of terminology, including skills, plugins, hooks, and MCP. You will see examples of how modern AI tooling can help with development tasks across Power BI and Fabric, along with the prerequisites, guardrails, and DataOps principles needed to use it responsibly. Whether you're burned out on AI hype or already using Copilot CLI daily, this session will show you the foundations that are finally making AI-assisted development genuinely useful.

Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs. This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context. We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing. **SPEAKER BIO** Mosaic Syed is a Senior Data Engineering and Cloud Solutions Architect with over 20 years of experience designing and delivering scalable, secure, and high-performance data solutions across global enterprise environments. https://www.linkedin.com/in/mosaic-basha-syed-92300856 **CALL FOR SPEAKERS** Learn more: [https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/](https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/) **THANK YOU** *VEEAM* for hosting our meetup!
