We all know that product work isn’t just about developing features. It’s about making product work sustainable - from keeping discovery alive over time to getting products launched without wasting too much energy on alignment, stakeholder management, and organisational friction. That’s often where product work starts to slip: discovery isn’t maintained, launches stall, and too much effort goes into managing the system instead of building the product. Join the **Product Academy** community at Westpark Zurich for an evening of raw insights, real-world failures, and proven frameworks from two industry experts. **Who is this for?** * The Strategist: PMs who want to use Opportunity Solution Trees (OST) to build the right thing faster. * The Change-Maker: PMs in large corporates are tired of "stalled" launches and stakeholder misalignment. * The Lifelong Learner: Anyone looking to network with the Zurich product community. **Limited spots available**. **The Lineup:** **Vivienne Clement (Product Owner @ Swiss Post)** * Talk: What happens when the Product is ready, but the Organisation isn't? * The Vibe: A deep dive into the "political" side of PMing. Learn how to manage stakeholder buy-in and overcome hidden resistance when **launching AI and B2B products** in large corporations. **John Huertas (Product Manager @ Swiss Re)** * Talk: Making Continuous Discovery & Opportunity Solution Trees Sustainable. * The Vibe: Move beyond theory. John shares lessons from a multi-year journey of experimentation to show how teams can bring more discipline to discovery, improve prioritisation, and make product decisions with greater confidence. **The details:** * 📅 When: May 7, 2026 * ⏰ Time: 18:30 CET * 📍 Where: Westpark Zurich Grab your seat and let’s level up your product game together!

„Echte Sicherheit entsteht nicht durch die Abwesenheit von Triggern, sondern durch die Fähigkeit, mit ihnen umzugehen.“ Häufig warten wir in intimen Situationen darauf, dass ein Raum „sicher genug“ ist, um uns zu öffnen. In diesem Workshop drehen wir die Perspektive um: Sicherheit ist kein passiver Zustand, sondern eine aktive, somatische Handlung. Wir laden dich ein, die Loyalität zu deinem eigenen Körper über das Ziel einer „perfekten“ Begegnung zu stellen. **Die Schwerpunkte von Modul 1:** Somatic Consent: Lerne, die Stimme deines Körpers als Navigationskompass zu nutzen. Wo sagst du „Ja“, um zu gefallen, obwohl dein System Schutz braucht? Containment & Intensität: Wie viel Lust, Scham oder Discomfort kannst du halten, ohne zu dissoziieren? Die 5%-Bedürfnis-Regel: Wir üben, Impulse in winzigen Dosen zu erfahren, damit dein Nervensystem „mitkommen“ kann, ohne geflutet zu werden. **Was dich erwartet:** Ein zweitägiger Forschungsraum mit Einzel- und Partnerübungen. Wir nutzen radikale Verlangsamung, um die Kapazität für dein eigenes Erleben zu erweitern. Als sex-positiver Lernraum sind Nacktheit und Berührung willkommen, aber immer basierend auf radikaler Freiwilligkeit. Datum: 9. – 10. Mai 2026 Zeit: Sa 10:00–20:00 | So 10:00–18:00 Ort: Oberdorfstrasse, Zürich Leitung: Michèle (Intuitive Wisdom) & Jasmin (Onda+Mare) Preis: 420 CHF (Early Bird 380 CHF bis 5. April) Voraussetzung: Offen für alle (Anfänger & Fortgeschrittene). **Wichtige Infos für die Events:** Radikale Freiwilligkeit: Du entscheidest in jedem Moment über dein Level an Beteiligung. Aktives Zuschauen oder Pausen sind jederzeit willkommen. Anmeldung: Die Zusage hier auf Meetup dient der Vernetzung. Eine verbindliche Anmeldung erfolgt über michele-brand.ch bzw. Onda+Mare. Bist du bereit, deine Intimität aus der Tiefe deines Körpers heraus neu zu definieren? Wir freuen uns auf dich!

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!
