ZurichJS X VDZ: Warm Up
ZurichJS X VDZ: Warm Up
The road to **[Voxxed Days Zürich 2026](https://vdz26.voxxeddays.ch/)** starts here. Before the main stage opens, we’re gathering for a high-octane warm-up to stress-test our assumptions and sharpen our tools. In this special collaboration, we’re moving past the "hello world" tutorials and diving into the hard-won lessons of scaling production apps. Join us for an evening of technical deep dives and community networking as we set the tone for the VOXXED DAYS ZURICH conference. **Agenda** * 17:30 – **Doors open** * 18:30 - 18:50 – **Settling in & Intro** * 18:50 - 20:30 – **Talks and pizza** * 20:30 – **Networking** **Explore the detailed agenda and speaker info: [https://zurichjs.com/events/march-2026](https://zurichjs.com/events/march-2026)** **About the organizers** * **[Bogdan Ilie](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ilie-bogdan/)** is a user advocate.

From Hype to ROI: LLMs, Machine Learning, and Real Value in Analytics
From Hype to ROI: LLMs, Machine Learning, and Real Value in Analytics
With AI dominating every conversation, it’s becoming harder to separate real business value from hype. In this roundtable, we’ll explore how AI is actually used in modern analytics (beyond chatbots and flashy demos). Our special guest, Dr. Pawel Kampczyk, Head of AI & Data Science at Aktiia, will uncover where large language models and machine learning make a real impact, where their limits are, and how companies can use them with confidence. You’ll leave with a clearer mental model of how AI is used in marketing and analytics today. What to trust, what to double-check, and where it can drive measurable value for your business. The Analytics Roundtable will as always take place at the Advance Metrics office at the On Labs Tower in Zurich at Förrlibuckstrasse 190.
Fast Friending - Make Meaningful Connections! (21-40/Bring a lady free)
Fast Friending - Make Meaningful Connections! (21-40/Bring a lady free)
Moving to a new city is exciting at first — a fresh start, new opportunities, a new chapter. But once things settle, being new in town can feel lonely. You don’t know anyone yet, you’re unsure where to go to meet people, and everyone else seems to already have their circles. That’s where we come in. Our Fast Friending evenings are designed especially for those who are new in town and ready to build real friendships — creating welcoming spaces where conversations flow naturally and meaningful connections begin. **You will need to buy a ticket for attending -** [https://zurich28thmarch.eventbrite.co.uk](https://zurich28thmarch.eventbrite.co.uk) \*You can use any debit or credit card to purchase your ticket at PayPal checkout. It will ask you for your email address but that is only to send you a receipt. You do not need a PayPal account. TICKETS:- Early bird - CHF 10 Regular ticket - CHF 15 Cash at the meetup - If you have not purchased your ticket in advance then you can pay CHF 20 per person in cash on the day of the meetup to Julianne (Please bring exact change) 'Fast friending' is our fun and quick way to help you make new connections quickly with both ladies and gentlemen. These are people in the age group of 21 and 40 and so you will be on a similar wavelength. Naturally you can always choose who to speak with based on your preference! Here's how your evening is planned - **7:00 PM – Welcome** \- We will meet at 7\.00 pm when you will be welcomed by your host Julianne\. She will manage the evening and also help you make connections\. If you are a bit shy or anxious then please come early. Julianne will help you meet other members in a small group and help you settle down and get comfortable. All attendees are also welcome to bring a lady friend along with them for free. This will make it a lot less stressful for you as you will always have your friend alongside. **7:30 – 8:30 PM \| Fast Friending** \- From 7\.30 to 8\.30 pm\, we will start 'Fast Friending' where our host will ask you to speak to a different attendee every 3 minutes\. You will be able to meet lots of ladies and gentlemen and not be limited to only those sitting or standing next you\. **After 8:30 PM \| Open Mingling** \- After 8\.30 pm you will have time to interact with those you have met as well as others\. If you are a bit shy or anxious then please come early. Neo will help you meet other members in a small group and help you settle down and get comfortable. \- We are not a close knit tight group\. Our evenings are warm and comfortable for members attending for the first time and those coming alone\. You will not feel alone\! \- We have many groups in this city\. Members of our other groups who RSVP are included as guests of the organisers in order to give you an indication of expected people\. \- This evening is for ladies and gents in the 21 to 40 age group\. \- Our evenings are not about 'dating' or for 'romantic' connections\. 'Fast friending' is NOT 'Speed dating'\. 'Fast friending' is designed to help members meet other like minded ladies and gents\. It is about new friendships and connections\. Naturally\, new friendships can lead to dating or romantic connections\, but that is not our focus\. Why do we have tickets? 1. Cover our costs - Our host is compensated for their time and work.

Whatapp: [https://chat.whatsapp.com/FxOfVTK9nf431xHtVl3eGK](https://chat.whatsapp.com/FxOfVTK9nf431xHtVl3eGK) Website: [https://webzurich.ch](https://webzurich.ch) 18:30 \~ 19:00 Arrival time with drinks, chat and introduction 19:00 \~ 19:40 *Christian Heitzmann* **Why Documentation Won’t Write Itself—and AI Won’t Save You** For the last 15+ years, I’ve joined and consulted software teams that all struggled with the same problem: nobody likes writing documentation, and everybody pays the price for it. New developers spend weeks reverse-engineering codebases, architecture lives in people’s heads, and wikis quietly decay into noise. With AI now entering the picture, many hope it will fill the gaps. It won’t. I’ll show the simple ideas that change everything: how to think about documentation in the right levels, how to keep it close to the code, and how to avoid the decay we all know too well. These are the decisions that have to be made before any tool or process can work. The documentation won’t write itself. But there are ways to make it far easier and far more reliable. 19:40 \~ 20:00 *Marco Gähler* **How to write good code** There is an infinite amount of solutions how you can solve a programming problem. Some are better, others are worse. The best solutions are easy to understand, maintain and errors are not able to hide. I wrote a book "Software Engineering Made Easy" about this topic and I'm more than happy to explain some principles that make your code better. Most of them are quite simple to understand, once you understand the mechanics, why your code always breaks. 20:00 onward More drinks & chat We look forward to see you there!

AI Ambition vs. Enterprise Reality: How to cross the adoption gap.
**\>\>\> Please use [this registration link](https://events.xebia.com/intelligent-automation/outsystems-ai-ambition-vs-enterprise-reality) <<<<<** The speed of AI evolution is outpacing most organizations' ability to adopt it, especially when it comes to integrating agentic AI into business processes. This session explores **why platform-based approaches are helping organizations bridge the gap between AI ambition and real business value.** We'll address the most common adoption challenges and what's actually slowing organisations down. Most attempt to build their own AI-powered custom software solutions, but achieving the speed and scale required takes more than technology, it requires a different operating model. [Xebia](https://xebia.com) invites [OutSystems](https://www.outsystems.com) to share their real-world perspective on intelligent automation and closing the enterprise adoption gap. **Speakers** * [Aysegul Kaya](https://www.linkedin.com/in/aysegul-kaya-121a70108/).

Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively. This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. We’ll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from server‑driven controls, and why they’re becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether you’re maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, you’ll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standards‑based way. **YouTube Link** TBA
