How do organizations in regulated industries build AI systems that are not only innovative, but also responsible, safe, and trustworthy? What can pharma teams learn from practical approaches to AI governance, and how should we evaluate generative and autonomous systems when benchmarks alone are not enough? This meetup brings together two complementary perspectives on AI in regulated environments — from building responsible, governed AI programs in pharma to designing meaningful evaluation approaches for generative and agentic systems in real-world use cases. Together, the talks will explore how to move beyond hype, understand common failure modes, and build evaluation and governance practices that reflect actual system behavior, risk, and impact. ### Why you should attend? * Practical perspectives on responsible AI, governance, and safety in pharma * A clearer understanding of why benchmarks are not enough for AI evaluation * Insight into common failure modes of generative and agentic systems * Simple frameworks and techniques for designing better evaluations * New ideas for building trustworthy AI in regulated industries ### Program: **17:30 – 18:00** Registration & coffee **18:00 – 18:10** Welcome **18:10 – 19:00** Presentations * **AI Transformation in Pharma: Building Responsible, Safe and Governed Systems,** Filip Rais * **Responsible AI and Ai Safety,** Pavel Vácha **19:00 – 19:20** Q&A / discussion **19:20 – 20:00** Networking See you there!

**What does it mean to belong somewhere — and who gets to decide?** Agora Network and [MigAct](https://migact.net/cs/) invite you to participate in an evening of dialogue centered around **exploring the experience of migration, identity, and what it means to make a home in a place that wasn't always yours**. We'll be using the [DEMOS Dialogue](https://democracydialogues.eu/) methodology: a structured, facilitated conversation designed to move beyond debate and into genuine exchange. The DEMOS model is built on a simple but powerful idea: that people with different perspectives and lived experiences can think together — not to reach consensus, but to understand each other more honestly. **No speeches, no winning arguments. Just real conversation.** What to expect: * **A welcoming, low-pressure atmosphere open to people of migration background and local Czech residents alike** * **Facilitated small-group dialogue using the DEMOS method** * **Reflection on themes of belonging, identity, and what we share across difference** * **About 2 hours, with time to connect informally afterward** Whether you were born here or arrived recently, your perspective matters. This event is for anyone willing to listen as much as they speak Space is limited to keep conversations intimate — reserve your spot below.

Learning Czech can be hard and demotivating, especially when studying alone. **This meetup is a shared study session where we come together to stay focused, motivated, and make progress — each in our own way.** This is a co-learning / co-studying session, not a class. There is no teacher, no lesson, and no study material provided. Everyone comes with their own resources and studies independently, in a shared environment. 🧠 **How it works** • We all bring our own material: • textbooks • homework from a Czech course • Duolingo or other apps • reading practice • vocabulary review, etc. • We mainly work individually • We are free to: • ask questions • help each other • share tips and resources • No teacher, no formal structure, no pressure 👥 **Who is it for?** • Czech learners of all levels • Non-Czech speakers (expats, internationals) • Czech native speakers are welcome if they want to help, but this is not a language exchange ⏱ **Practical info** • Location: Cafedu 12, Škrétova 490, 120 00 Praha 2 (Metro A and C, Muzeum station) • Duration: 2 hours, or less or more, as you want • Day & time: Monday, 18:00 • Group size: small group for now • Free event — please support the café by ordering a drink ☕ If you’re learning Czech and lack motivation when studying alone, come join us — let’s find it together 🙂

Talk 1 **Title: The Platform Is the People: SLAs, DORA and Trust at Billions of Requests a Month** By: Harry Bouras Role / LinkedIn: AI & Cloud Engineering leader, formerly heading the API organisation of a leading, extremely global and multicultural corporation. LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/harry-bouras/ Abstract: Most "platform" talks are about tools. This one isn't. Heading the API organisation of a leading, extremely global and multicultural corporation, interconnecting decades of legacy systems while serving billions of requests a month and scaling across both Azure and Google Cloud, taught me a contrarian lesson the hard way: at that volume, platforms don't fail on technology, and cloud bills don't explode because of bad Terraform. They fail, or succeed, on how the organisation is set up to own, deliver and grow the thing. The org chart is the real architecture. I'll walk through the levers that actually moved the needle, each anchored in real moments from that scale. How SLAs, framed as clarity rather than punishment, change engineer behaviour more than any dashboard. Why extending trust and time to a team up front - the most uncomfortable thing a leader can do, is precisely what raises build quality and cuts the rework you can't afford at billions of requests. What genuinely changed when we dragged a waterfall-shaped organisation toward iterative, Scrum-based delivery, and why that was about shortening feedback loops, not adding ceremonies. And how DORA metrics became our objective answer to a question every team argues about: what actually makes a successful Senior Software Engineer and what a DevOps engineer? Then the human core, told honestly, which means told as comedy. What makes a good manager in this world, narrated through the things I was certain about and was completely wrong about. The running joke is also the real point: nearly every instinct that made me a good engineer made me a mediocre manager until I unlearned it. Finally, a look at what we're all about to get wrong together: AI is forcing DevOps to grow up into DevSecOps - and the teams that handle it well will be the ones that already have the ownership, trust and growth culture this talk is really about. Talk 2 **Postmortem Culture: Turning Failures into Learning, Not Blame** By: Dani Yelovitch Most engineering teams treat incidents as embarrassments to bury — a quick fix, a vague Slack message, and everyone moves on. This talk argues for a different approach: treating every failure as a gift. The core idea is blameless postmortems — a practice pioneered at Google and Netflix where the goal isn't to find a scapegoat, but to understand how the system (people, tools, processes) allowed a failure to happen in the first place. If a human made a mistake, the real question is: why did the system make that mistake easy to make? The talk would cover: What a good postmortem looks like (and the common ways they go wrong) How to run a blameless review without it becoming a blame-by-committee session Turning action items into actual change, not a graveyard doc nobody reads Building psychological safety so engineers report problems early instead of hiding them The key takeaway: teams that learn from failure faster than their competitors ship better software with fewer catastrophic incidents — not because they have better engineers, but because they've built better feedback loops. **Talk 3:** Title: From Service Organization to Self-Service: Platform Engineering in Action By Pavel Bureš from Sky Modern engineering organisations accumulate platform silos faster than they can pay them down — each team picking its own way to provision workloads, databases, queues and caches, each with subtly different security, observability and cost profiles. In this talk we share how we are tackling that problem at scale through a Platform Engineering practice built on the principle of a unified, abstracted interface for application-centric configuration — an approach that shifts platform teams from "ticket-driven plumbing" to product thinking: stable contracts, golden paths, and self-service by default. In the second half we zoom in on PEaaS (Persistence Engineering as a Service), our concrete implementation of these principles for stateful workloads. We will walk through the architecture — Crossplane 2.0 composition functions on EKS, application-centric Kubernetes claims (XRs), and a tenant-onboarding model that automates IAM, VPC endpoints, OIDC and S3 provisioning — and how it abstracts heterogeneous backends (Keyspaces, Aurora DSQL, Redis Cloud, and Kafka on EKS) behind one consistent interface. Attendees will leave with: A practical pattern for designing engineering platforms in their own organisations. A reference architecture for persistence-as-a-service on Crossplane. Honest lessons on standardisation, tenant onboarding and platform adoption.

"Who gets paged? Unit\-testing Grafana notification policies\.*" by Martin Fryč, Staff Infrastructure Engineer at SentinelOne** \*Grafana notification policies decide who wakes up at 3am, and a single mistyped label can silently reroute an alert into the wrong team's branch. Grafana 13 and grafana-operator let teams own their slice of the policy tree, but Alertmanager still evaluates one merged tree, so a too-broad matcher in team A's subtree can quietly swallow team B's alerts. This talk shows a small Go tool that treats routing as code: declarative "given these labels, expect these receivers" assertions, run in CI against the assembled policy. We will walk through the routing semantics, real misroutings the tool can catch, and why multi-tree provisioning makes this test layer more necessary, not less. **2\. "*Using OpenTelemetry in development of resin 3D printers*" by** **Pavel Štrobl** \*In this talk we will take a look how it's possible to get metrics from upcoming resin printers from Prusa Research using OpenTelemetry, why it was not possible to use Prometheus Remote Write and the quirks while getting metrics from hardware constrained environment. **19:40 - 21:30**: Discussion and more pizza Note that by registering for this event you consent to related event & product communications from Grafana Labs and agree to our[ code of conduc](https://grafana.com/events/events-code-of-conduct/)t \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **​PLEASE NOTE**: at the SentinelOne office, in line with the venue security requirements - all meetup attendees will be required be verified by their\*\* ID card (or passport\*\*), also to\*\* sign a generic ND\*\*A used for all office visitors and to wear a visitor badge with their name during the whole event - to be able to attend the meetup

Mental Health, how do you understand it? How can you improve it? How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself. Have you ever suffered from a traumatic experience, a deep loss or been through a painful breakup? Has your ability to communicate suffered as a result? And after that, even though you "moved on" did you find that things were never quite the same? Have you ever looked at childhood photos, or reminisced your early life and wondered where that happiness and spark went? Are your emotions out of your own control? Have you ever felt, even if you aren’t aware of it, that possibly you are getting in your own way of your happiness and success? How does this affect your self-confidence? Find out what is at the root of all stress, anxiety, depression and self-doubt. Find out how and why you hold yourself back from achieving your goals and having the life you have dreamed of. As soon as you learn what is at the root of these unwanted conditions, you’ll see it is something you can DO something about. You will not be labeled or categorized at this MeetUp. This group is hosted by the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
