Is Agile finally dead, just because AI rotted out skills and software happens with the push of a button? Or do we need change agents now more than ever? Pooja Gupta, Agile Coach at Visma Solutions, and together with the Agile Coaching Circle Finland, invite all Agilists, Product Owners, and Scrum Masters to come together and explore the magic of AI in the life of an Agilist. For her, AI is a new tool to do her job in a new, more efficient, way than ever before. She will share her stories of the value of welcoming change with curiosity, and why doing it earlier takes us further! During this workshop, we will explore together: * How AI can be used effectively in Agile organizations * How AI aligns with core Agile values and principles * Where Agilists fit into the modern value flow from idea to delivery * How AI can improve collaboration in cross-functional teams, to generate ideas and on picking “low-hanging fruit”— like creating Jira tickets, helping with Retros and refining user stories. Pooja will share how she creates AI Agents, and uses large language models (LLMs) in her daily work, approaching a more AI-native workflow. Agile Coaches have always been change agents, and the industry needs our support more than ever during this period of transformation. This is our time. Let’s explore the future of Agile with AI together! **Agenda:** * [17.00] Welcome and networking * [17.30] Workshop and discussions * [19.30] Q&A and networking * [20.00] End of the event

(English version at the bottom) Joskus huomaamme, kuinka helposti mieli kiristyy kokemuksen ympärille. Haluamme asioiden olevan toisin tai arvostelemme sitä, mitä tunnemme. Mitä tapahtuisi, jos voisimme hetkeksi suhtautua omaan kokemukseemme hieman lempeämmin? Tässä maanantain meditaatiossa tutkimme, mitä tarkoittaa kohdata oma kokemus hieman ystävällisemmästä paikasta käsin. Illan lopussa teemme myös perinteisen mettameditaation, eli rakastavan ystävällisyyden meditaation. 𝐌𝐚𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐢 𝐦𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨 Maanantain meditaatio on viikoittainen zen-harjoitus. Harjoittelemme yhdessä meditaatiota ja tutkimme joka kerta yhtä teemaa, joka voi avata uusia näkökulmia omaan mieleen ja elämän kokemiseen. Harjoitus voi tuoda lisää selkeyttä, rauhaa ja tasapainoa sekä meditaatiossa että arjen tilanteissa. 𝐌𝐲ö𝐭ä𝐭𝐮𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐞𝐞𝐦𝐚 Tämä ilta on osa myötätunnon ja mettameditaation teemaa, jota tutkimme maanantain meditaatioissa 23.3.–20.4. 𝐌𝐚𝐤𝐬𝐮𝐭𝐨𝐧 𝐤𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐚 Tämä kerta on maksuton. Halutessasi voit tehdä vapaaehtoisen lahjoituksen kulujen kattamiseksi ja opetuksen tukemiseksi. 𝐎𝐡𝐣𝐞𝐥𝐦𝐚 • 50 min teetä & opetusta • 2 x 25 min istumameditaatio + 10 min kävelymeditaatio • Henkilökohtaista ohjausta (meditaation aikana, vapaaehtoinen) • Teetä ja yhdessäoloa harjoitusystävien kanssa (vapaaehtoinen) 𝐓𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐢 𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐯𝐨𝐢𝐧 𝐤𝐚𝐢𝐤𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐞 Kaikki ovat tervetulleita. Aikaisempaa kokemusta meditaatiosta ei tarvita. 𝐈𝐥𝐦𝐨𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐚𝐮𝐭𝐮𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐧: https://forms.gle/ZPL9X5hsxaBJC2rS6 Lempein terveisin, Tyyniminä-yhteisö \~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~ 🇬🇧 Sometimes we notice how easily the mind tightens around our experience. We want things to be different, or we begin judging what we feel. What would happen if, for a moment, we could relate to our experience with a little more kindness? In this Monday meditation we will explore what it means to meet our experience from a more gentle place. At the end of the evening we will also practice metta meditation, the traditional meditation of loving-kindness. 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐌𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 Monday meditation is a weekly Zen practice. We meditate together and each week explore a new topic that can open new perspectives about our own mind and our experience of life. The practice can bring more clarity, peace, and balance — both in meditation and in everyday life. 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦𝐞 This evening is part of the theme of compassion and metta meditation, which we will explore in Monday meditations from March 23 to April 20. 𝐅𝐫𝐞𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐞 𝐬𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 This session is free of charge. If you wish, you may offer a voluntary donation to help cover expenses and support the teachings. 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐝𝐮𝐥𝐞 • 50 minutes of tea & teaching • 2 × 25 minutes sitting meditation + 10 minutes walking meditation • Personal guidance (during meditation, optional) • Tea and time to connect with fellow practitioners (optional) 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐚𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐫𝐞 Everyone is welcome. No previous meditation experience is needed. 𝐑𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: https://forms.gle/htLe2rccKwuav8pM8 Warmly, Tyyniminä Community

**Welcome to the third Finnish Game Industry QA Meetup!** We will be kicking off the meetups for 2026 with the theme “Automation in QA (Mobile Edition)”. Since automation is such a large discipline by itself, we decided to split it into multiple different areas. For this event we have chosen "mobile" as the focus point. Once again, we welcome everyone interested in the quality assurance in game industry to our event, whether you are a seasoned industry veteran or someone taking their first steps into QA. We highly encourage all our attendees to being active during the presentations and share knowledge with each other during mingling. **Host** This meetup will be hosted by [Rovio](https://www.rovio.com/about/)!

[Henry Lunabba](https://www.linkedin.com/in/henrylunabba/) from [Metacore](https://metacoregames.com/company)! **How to Start: Quick Wins in Mobile Game Automation** **Speaker:** Ru Cindrea Test automation in mobile games feels hard to start - and even harder to justify later on. This talk draws on real-world experience across multiple mobile game projects to make the case that you don't need a perfect framework, full coverage, or a dedicated automation team to get value. It shares concrete examples of what has actually worked on live games and offers a practical lens for deciding where automation is worth the investment. **Stories from the trenches: Why the best in-house test automation framework doesn’t necessarily solve all your problems** **Speaker:** Henry Lunabba Software for games is built of exactly the same components as software in banking, finance or any other tech, but there is of course some differences as well. In his talk, Henry will share his experiences and learnings from diving straight into the world of gaming QA and automated game testing, with absolutely no prior experience from game development. **We are excited to welcome you to our first meetup of 2026!** **Best Regards,** The Organizing Team
