This is a multidisciplinary community and meetup for innovators, creators, and techies who are passionate about learning and talking about artificial intelligence. The event is open from 16:45. The program starts 17:15. **Lightning talks (15 minutes)** * Ali Reza Farahnak, Senior AI Architect, Microsoft * Kræn Hansen, Developer Experience Engineer, Eleven Labs * Daniella Feiglin, Product Manager, Tactile Games * Olga Safonova, Lead Product Manager, Public 360° at Tieto ***SPEAKER BIOS & TOPICS:*** **[Ali Reza Farahnak](https://dk.linkedin.com/in/alirezafarahnak)** is a Senior AI Architect at [Microsoft](https://www.microsoft.com/), focused on AI, Azure, and GitHub. For the past 7 years he has worked out of Microsoft's Global Customer Success organization in Redmond with some of the world's largest customers, including Tesla, NEOM, the London Stock Exchange, Bank of America, Emirates, Aramco, Maersk, Novo Nordisk, and several governments. Since January 2026, he has been part of Customer Success in Denmark, helping Danish enterprises turn generative AI into production-ready solutions. Topic: Most enterprise AI apps stop at the chat window, but your customers are on the phone, on WhatsApp, on SMS, in their inbox, and inside Teams. Ali shows how Azure Communication Services lets a single AI app reach customers across all of those channels, with a live demo of an outbound Danish speaking voice agent, similar to what has been built for the insurance industry, Vodafone Qatar, Norlys and many more, that calls a customer, runs a light identity check, and has a real conversation powered by Azure Voice Live and gpt-realtime-1.5. **[Kræn Hansen](https://dk.linkedin.com/in/kraenhansen)** is a Developer Experience Engineer at voice AI startup [ElevenLabs](https://elevenlabs.io/) where he builds [SDKs](https://elevenlabs.io/blog/elevenagents-react-sdk-v1-0) to enable text-to-speech, speech-to-text, and voice-cloning on the real-time ElevenAgents platform. He formerly worked at MongoDB, building a local-first database and sync engine called Realm. He holds a Master's degree in Computer Science from the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). Topic: "We talk to AI every day, but when we switch from typing to speaking, the rules change. A half-second delay breaks the illusion of conversation. In this talk, I'll take you behind the scenes of how voice agents actually work: what makes a voice conversation feel natural, why latency is the enemy, and the different ways you can deploy voice AI, from fully managed platforms to bringing your own AI model. Whether you're building with voice AI or just curious about where it's heading, you'll walk away understanding what's really going on when you talk to a machine." **[Daniella Feiglin](https://dk.linkedin.com/in/daniella-feiglin)** is a Product Manager at [Tactile](https://tactilegames.com/product-manager-at-tactile/), where she works closely with development teams and stakeholders to turn ideas into fully launched game features. She joined the company in August 2025 and brings nearly a decade of experience in the mobile games industry with a background across game design, market research, and product management. At Tactile, she focuses on using data and market insights to shape product decisions and drive impactful player experiences. Topic: A practical, honest look at how day-to-day work changed using Claude Code. Daniella will share how she transitioned to an AI-powered workflow that allows her to prototype features as she specs them, while providing consistent, high-detail output for her development teams at a higher pace. **[Olga Safonova](https://www.linkedin.com/in/olgasafonova/)** is a product leader with 20+ years in enterprise tech, currently Lead PM for [Public 360°](https://www.tietoevry.com/en/industry/public-360-services/360-case-document-and-records-management/) at Tieto (GovTech, 500K+ users). Previously at Siteimprove, Workday, LEO Innovation Lab and Saxo Bank. She also builds: Open-source MCP servers (a few running in production), an OTel observability library for AI tool infrastructure, and SkillCheck (getskillcheck.com). Where most product leaders talk about AI, she ships it on weekends. Topic: From personal OS to team OS - Agentic skills, MCPs and team context. As product manager, Olga shares how she built her own AI tooling: A personal OS of agentic skills, MCP servers, CLIs, and the cross-machine configurations that keeps it coherent. ... ***Venue:*** [Tactile Games](https://tactilegames.com/) \- Vestergade 33\, Copenhagen ***Sponsors:*** Thanks to [Tactile Games](https://tactilegames.com/) for event sponsorship along with sponsoring food, beverages and snacks.

Our first Technoverts meetup had a great turnout, so we're doing it again, this time with an optional conversation theme: **How people are actually using AI in everyday work and life**. This is not a panel or presentation, and I do not have a fixed agenda, it's just a relaxed coffee conversation for people in tech (or tech-adjacent fields) who are curious about practical AI use cases, useful tools, workflow hacks, weird experiments, and what's generally helping people right now. *Topics might include:* * AI tools people actually use at work * Productivity and automation * Prompting successes and failures * Writing, coding, research, analytics and creative use cases * What feels overhyped vs. genuinely useful. No expertise is required. It's completely fine to come mostly curious, skeptical, or just interested in meeting thoughtful people in tech. *What to expect:* * Low pressure conversation * A mix of tech talk and normal conversation Location: (Subject to change as I do more research) High Point Pub Tyson's Whole Foods, 1635 Boro Pl. (This is the cafe space on the second floor of the Whole Foods at the Boro, Tysons. Parking is free in the garage with validation). Time: 11 am (this is when the cafe opens). Everyone covers their own coffee/snacks. I'll arrive early and grab a table and will post details about location in the event discussion. Address: 1635 Boro Pl. Whole Foods 2nd Floor Cafe

NOVA Code and Coffee is an inclusive, informal, co-working session. People of all skill levels are invited. The concept is simple, bring a laptop and ideas, we'll provide the coffee and donuts! Here's how it works: 1. At 10:15 everyone introduces themselves and briefly describes what brought them to Code & Coffee today (project, homework, networking, etc) 2. For the rest of the day, folks work in the communal space on their projects providing one another help and conversation as needed. Oh and they usually drink coffee and tea too! That's it! Hope to see you there! **Location** Our hosts are the Fairfax City Economic Development Building: [10300 Eaton Pl, Fairfax, VA 22030](https://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&&p=d7298231ca2df594df822003f9a93517c788fceefe1fcbb79c8976696e341bc6JmltdHM9MTc1MzIyODgwMA&ptn=3&ver=2&hsh=4&fclid=180d0745-3b7f-69a1-23a2-11433a7868e5&u=a1L21hcHM_Jm1lcGk9MTA5fn5Ub3BPZlBhZ2V-QWRkcmVzc19MaW5rJnR5PTE4JnE9RmFpcmZheCUyMENpdHklMjBFY29ub21pYyUyMERldmVsb3BtZW50JnNzPXlwaWQuWU44NzN4ODI4MTk2Mjg0NTk5MDM4MTU0MiZwcG9pcz0zOC44NjE0NDYzODA2MTUyMzRfLTc3LjMwMjE3NzQyOTE5OTIyX0ZhaXJmYXglMjBDaXR5JTIwRWNvbm9taWMlMjBEZXZlbG9wbWVudF9ZTjg3M3g4MjgxOTYyODQ1OTkwMzgxNTQyfiZjcD0zOC44NjE0NDZ-LTc3LjMwMjE3NyZ2PTImc1Y9MSZGT1JNPU1QU1JQTA&ntb=1) Conference Room A- Large, Floor 1 This is a new venue for us, so give us some time to get more details about it.

Join our new group’s third meeting. Meet fellow tech enthusiasts west of the beltway. ​Because our group is new, we have a poll for the direction we want to take this new group. ​[https://submatrix.net/article/Meetups/e9ym4fr8Ca](https://submatrix.net/article/Meetups/e9ym4fr8Ca) ​For this event, we will be running a working meetup. ​Our meetings are a great place to work on and show off what you do. We are always welcoming. ​Our format is great for people who have started on but not finished one or several side projects. ​We will start off with basic introductions and what we are working on and what our goals are. We’ll break the rest of the meeting into two working sessions. In between, we’ll do a quick check-in to see how folks are going. If the RSVP is full, come anyway. We'll likely have space.

We will be meeting at Starbucks to learn together. Come with an online class you're already going through or an interest and we will try to connect you with a course where you can learn it. Already have a skill you want to contribute to a Kaggle Datascience competition? We will work on these too! Laptop required :)
