Founders Running Club :: Berlin
Founders Running Club :: Berlin
​**Founders Running Club** (FRC) brings founders, investors, tech, creative people and startup enthusiasts together for weekly easy runs and networking. ​Every Saturday morning we gather together and run through Tiergarten. Join us in one of these 3 routes: ​\* **5K** – for new & beginner runners ​\* **7K** – for regular runners ​\* **11K** – for more experienced runners **OBS**: We are usually around 30 people, between regulars and newcomers (from here and from Luma), so don't be scared if there are not a lot of people confirmed on the event here. The pace is chill and conversational, around **6:30**. On the 7k and 11k some people like to push a bit more, but no one gets left behind. We finish with a nice coffee and amazing conversations. The vibe is always great. Pets, friends, family, are welcome. More about **FRC**: ​🗓️ Launched in San Francisco, July 16, 2022 🌍 Now in 50+ cities 📅 Running + Networking events + Community ​**Join the community** [http://foundersrc.com/chats](http://foundersrc.com/chats?utm_source=luma) Berlin Instagram [http://instagram.com/frcberlin](http://instagram.com/frcberlin?utm_source=luma) ​ **Global FRC**: Instagram [http://instagram.com/foundersrc/](http://instagram.com/foundersrc/?utm_source=luma) LinkedIn [http://linkedin.com/company/foundersrc/](http://linkedin.com/company/foundersrc/?utm_source=luma) Strava [http://strava.com/clubs/foundersRC](http://strava.com/clubs/foundersRC?utm_source=luma) Website [http://foundersrc.com/](http://foundersrc.com/?utm_source=luma)

Watercolour Basics
Watercolour Basics
**Saturdays, 13.6. - 11.7.** 18:15 - 21:00 This workshop is designed as a calm and welcoming space to slow down, paint, and reconnect with the joy of making things by hand – while also building a strong foundation in the essentials of watercolour painting. Through guided exercises and individual support, you’ll learn everything from how to work with water and pigment through brush pressure, layering, and colour mixing. The sessions are designed to help you switch off mentally, focus on the rhythm of painting, and settle into a relaxed creative flow without the pressure of perfectionism. This is not a “copy exactly what the teacher does” type of class. The aim is to help you build confidence and control with watercolour, develop a stronger eye for colour and observation, and create paintings that feel personal to you. The atmosphere is intentionally relaxed and open. You can join regularly throughout the full workshop period or simply come when you need a creative evening to reset, focus, and paint alongside others! **[Book your tickets here with Maximiliana!](https://www.tickettailor.com/events/maxmartiskova/2203970)**

Respect and Safety: There is always at least one organizer present at every meetup. If you ever feel unsafe or bothered by someone’s behavior, you can reach out to an organizer privately. Your identity will remain confidential, your concern will be taken seriously, and no inappropriate behavior is tolerated — anyone making others feel uncomfortable will be removed from the group immediately. We hope to see you there. Bring yourself, your smile, drawing materials, your stories—or just your comfy self. Let’s make Saturday a little more laid-back, a little more social and a lot more nice.

Watercolor Day: A Beginner-Friendly Watercolor Workshop
Watercolor Day: A Beginner-Friendly Watercolor Workshop
Have you always wanted to try watercolor painting but didn’t know where to begin? Watercolor Day is a hands-on workshop designed to introduce you to the fundamentals of watercolor in a clear, practical, and approachable way. Through a series of guided exercises, you’ll learn how watercolor behaves and how to use its qualities to create expressive paintings. We’ll begin with simple studies focused on water control, tone, color mixing, and washes. Once you’ve become familiar with the medium, you’ll practice essential watercolor techniques such as wet-on-wet painting, glazing, layering, and creating textures. In the second part of the workshop, you’ll apply these skills to create a finished watercolor painting. ### What you’ll learn * The basic principles of watercolor * How to control water and pigment * Color mixing and tonal values * Different types of washes * Wet-on-wet and wet-on-dry techniques * Glazing and layering * Texture and special effects * How to build a painting from light to dark ### What’s included * All materials and professional watercolor supplies * A practical watercolor workbook designed specifically for this course * A finished watercolor artwork to take home The workbook contains key concepts, exercises, techniques, and practice recommendations, helping you continue painting independently after the workshop. ### Workshop Language The workshop will be taught in English. German and Russian explanations can be provided whenever necessary. ### Who is this workshop for? * Complete beginners * Anyone curious about watercolor * Artists working in other media who want to explore watercolor * Creative people looking for a relaxed and practical learning experience No previous experience is necessary. By the end of the workshop, you’ll have a solid understanding of watercolor fundamentals, your own completed artwork, and a workbook to support your future practice. **About the Instructor** Jenny Andreeva is a Berlin-based watercolor artist and educator. She is a member of the German Watercolour Society and has exhibited internationally, including at the Fabriano Watercolour Festival in Italy. She has held several solo exhibitions in Berlin and teaches watercolor to beginners and hobby artists. **Tickets:** Use promo code HEARTSPACEFRIEND for a 30% discount for friends of the Community!

Stop Guessing: How to Measure and Improve LLM Outputs
Stop Guessing: How to Measure and Improve LLM Outputs
Most people use LLMs by feel: ask a question, read the answer, decide whether it “seems good,” and move on. That works for casual use. It does not work when you are building software, automating workflows, writing important documents, or relying on AI for anything that needs to be repeatable. In this talk, we’ll look at how to improve and evaluate the inputs and outputs of LLMs using practical measurement techniques. We’ll cover how prompt changes affect results, how to compare outputs, how to build simple evaluation sets, and how math-based methods like similarity scoring can help you move beyond guesswork. This will be beginner-friendly, so even if you don't know anything about AI, you should get something out of it. However, this will be a little more technical than our intro talks. You do not need to be an AI researcher, but programmers and technically curious attendees will get a lot out of it. We’ll cover: * Why “it looks good” is not enough * How to improve prompts by changing the input, context, and constraints * How to compare LLM outputs more systematically * Basic evaluation techniques for accuracy, consistency, and usefulness * How embeddings, cosine similarity, and scoring can help evaluate results * Where automated evaluation works — and where humans still need to stay in the loop By the end, you’ll have a practical mental model for treating LLMs less like magic and more like systems you can test, measure, and improve. LOGISTICS AND PARKING: The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks! The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.
