Cowork - ja sinä voit keskittyä olennaiseen
Tässä sessiossa katsotaan, mitä Copilot Cowork oikeasti tekee ja miltä sen käyttö näyttää arjen tilanteissa. Vedetään läpi muutama demo, joissa Cowork hoitaa rutiinit ja valmistelut taustalla, jotta käyttäjä voi keskittyä siihen mikä oikeasti vie työtä eteenpäin. Samalla jutellaan myös siitä, missä EU‑regulaation kanssa tällä hetkellä mennään ja mitä se tarkoittaa Coworkin käytölle nyt ja lähitulevaisuudessa.

In-person gathering
You are warmly welcomed to another in-person gathering of the Return community.
During this event we'll create an open, free and safe space for meeting up with the people of the community and sharing what the heart desires to share.
There's no strict agenda on what this event will hold. The soft intention here is to return to the mystery and see what arises from the present moment we create together.
I'm looking forward to seeing you in-person at Bokvillan and returning to the mystery ✨
Sahaja Yoga meditation course in English
Welcome to join our Sahaja Yoga meditation meetings in English! The meetings are free of charge and you can just show up. The group consists of people of different ages and nationalities who have been meditating different periods of time. Newcomers are welcome at any time. We normally sit on chairs or on pillows on the floor, so there is no need to bring a mat and you can wear normal clothes.
Meditation means mental silence or thoughtless awareness. You are present here and now, but your mind is not bombarded by thoughts from the past or the future. In this state, you feel peace and joy, which are the essential elements of the present moment. With regular practice of meditation, it is possible to establish this state within us.
The group is lead by volunteers who are experienced and can offer guidance to get you started. We give a short introduction to the meditation and after that we do meditation exercises. We also give tips on how to meditate at home. After the meditation class, we have a cup of tea and there is time for questions.
Welcome! We hope to see you in our meditation meetings!

Shut Up & Write - Helsinki
A warm space to write, connect, and spend some intentional time together.

No phones, no chatting during the writing time — just a simple way to create momentum while being in the company of others. If you are noise sensitive, bring earplugs/headphones etc..
There’s no pressure to share your work unless you feel like it — you’re always welcome to keep things private.
All kinds of writing are welcome:
– Creative writing
– Poetry
– Journaling
– Essays or academic work
– Anything else
Any language is welcome too.
After the session, you’re welcome to stay, chat, and hang out for as long as you like.

Vibe Coding Finland: June meetup with Elisa
Welcome to our June meetup in Helsinki, arranged together with Elisa (https://elisa.fi/).
Schedule:
17:00 Doors open!
17:30 Welcome words by organizers and Elisa
17:40 **"Build before specifying", Kristofer Pasanen, Development Manager/Product Owner, Elisa**
What changes when a PO builds before specifying? Better stakeholder conversations. Real artifacts for real decisions. Sometimes the roles blur – sometimes it becomes obvious why every role is still needed. Notes from a year of building for myself and at Elisa.
\*5 min break\*
18:15 **"Bringing Context, Orchestration and AI Agents to the SDLC by Graham & Akseli from Kaiku"**
With AI in delivery projects, we consistently see the same pattern: every engineer has their own rules, their own prompts, their own way of working — and nothing is shared. Context lives in people's heads, local systems, or scattered across repositories.
At Kaiku we've been tackling this from the inside - bringing shared context, structured skills, and orchestrated agents across our whole company. In this session, Graham & Akseli will walk through how Kaiku has approached this, how we've evolved and where we're aiming next.
* Why context is the real bottleneck in AI-assisted development and why solving it at the individual level doesn't scale.
* Building a shared knowledge layer: encoding expertise into skills, rules, and workflows that agents and humans pull from the same source.
* What it looks like in practice when POs and engineers are all working with the same AI context across their tools and agents.
* Orchestrating agents across the delivery lifecycle: what's worked, what we've learnt, and what we're still figuring out.
Akseli Manninen is a senior data scientist at Kaiku and Graham Daw is one of the founders.
\*5 min break\*
18:50 **"How an AI-native marketing agency actually uses AI**
**Built AI-native from day one", Valtteri Taube, co-founder, OstraconAI**
Valtteri Taube shares how the agency operates — and what it means to run marketing in an AI-first way. One example: the Claude Skills the team uses in its own marketing
19:30 Mingling / free discussion etc
20:00 Doors close

Sketchy Collective: Helsinki Drawing Meetup (15:00 Helsinki time)
**HOW TO FIND US**
Outdoors: We meet **every Sunday at 15:00** in the **Töölönlahti Park**, opposite the entrance to Pikku-Finlandia. If you’re walking from Oodi, pass the playground with the big swings and the volleyball court. On the left, you’ll find us in the **area with benches, hammocks, and yellow chairs**.
Indoors: When it's cold or rainy we move to the **top floor** of the **Oodi** Library, on the stairs opposite the children’s area.
It's a good idea to **keep your sketchbook visible** so others can easily recognize that you're there for the sketching meetup. And if you’re a regular participant, making it clear that you're part of the sketching group can be very helpful for newcomers!
\*\*\*
**HOW IT WORKS**
At each meetup, attendees take turns being the model for a quick **10-minute sketch session**. One person poses, everyone else sketches, then we rotate.
\*\*\*
**WHAT TO BRING**
Pencils and paper (or any sketching tools you like).
No fees, no pressure. The only thing we ask is that everyone takes a turn posing for the group. You can sit however you feel comfortable — the 10 minutes go by quickly! Draw as much as you like, skip a round if you’re tired or just want to chat, and leave whenever it suits you. The event continues as long as there’s interest.
\*\*\*
**STAYING CONNECTED**
**Only people who have attended at least one meetup will be accepted into the WhatsApp group**. To be added, please ask other participants at the meetup — a few members have permission to approve new people, and at least one of them will likely be present.
\*\*\*
**SOCIAL MEDIA**
If you’d like to share your drawings from the meetup, you can send on WhatsApp group or use the Instagram collab function (instagram.com/sketchy.collective). We warmly encourage everyone to share their work and take part in building our international sketching gallery — together with artists from all the cities where Sketchy Collective meetups are organized.
Please note that photos may be taken during the meetup and shared on our social media. If you’d rather not be in photos, please let the person taking photos know so they can avoid photographing you.
If you’re taking photos, please make sure people know about it and can choose whether they want to be included or not.
Picnic meetup!
One more final meetup for the season. This one is super casual. Come hang out, grab a seat, enjoy the summer evening, and chat about games, design, projects, or whatever’s on your mind.
No presentations, no schedule, no pressure. Just a relaxed end-of-season meetup with other game designers.
See you there!
Badminton at Tali
Hello sporty population!
Join us for badminton and meet people from around the world! Everyone is welcome, whether you’re a beginner or already experienced.
**IMPORTANT**: Spots are limited, so please reserve yours in advance. Only registered participants can join to ensure fair access for everyone. If you mark “going” but do not attend, or fail to cancel at least 1 day before(By 9pm Saturday), you may be suspended from the next two sessions.
📍 Location: Talihalli Huopalahti
⏰ Time: 11:00–12:30
🏸 Courts: 9, 10, and 11
You can meet us at the entrance a little before 11:00 or come directly to the courts (**please do not enter before our booking starts**).
Who can join?
• Open to everyone, regardless of background or gender
• No badminton skills needed – beginners are welcome
• **Age limit: 16+**
Event is free, but please bring your rackets and indoor shoes, or you can borrow a racket from the hall for free if needed.
We are committed to making our events and activities accessible to those who need them most. Therefore, **individuals with a refugee background are welcome to attend free of charge without prior registration.** If you plan to join, simply send a message to Alaa to let us know you’re coming.
This approach is intentional. Many refugees and newcomers face practical, cultural, and psychological barriers that can make formal registration difficult or discouraging. By removing this requirement, we aim to create a more inclusive, low-threshold environment where participation feels safe, simple, and welcoming.
Our events are designed to support the mental health and well-being of refugees and immigrants, while also encouraging dialogue that challenges cross-cultural stigmas and stereotypes. We believe open access is an important step in building trust, increasing participation, and creating meaningful connections across communities.
After badminton, we'll enjoy Talihalli's sauna and maybe go to a local restaurant to grab some lunch after the game.
Warm welcome!

Rethinking how we organise product and service development in the AI era
Antero Kivi, VP of Data, AI & Integrations at DNA, looks at today's topic beyond tooling and technology.
**Product Owner Meetup - Helsinki** is a community where Product Owners come together to celebrate their craft, share real-world experiences, and grow as leaders in their industry.
### **🍦 Join us in the June's meetup about product and service development in the AI era**
**🎤 More about the speaker**
**Antero Kivi** from DNA looks beyond the tooling and technology to ask a bigger question: does the way we organize product and service development still hold up?
His view is grounded in the realities of a large telecom operator, where the pressure to move faster comes first and foremost from business needs, not from the technology.
Antero leads the Data, AI & Integrations unit at DNA, and acts as the company-wide AI transformation lead. With a background in product management, Antero brings a strategic perspective to today's topic.
📍 *Where:* **Nitor Office, Aleksanterinkatu** 46, 6th floor (next to Mummotunneli)
🕕 *When:* **Wednesday, June 10th, from 17:30 to 19:30**
🍪 *Bonus:* **Snacks, drinks, and great company!**
Through inspiring talks, hands-on discussions, and opportunities to connect with peers, we aim to value and highlight the role of the Product Owner to one of innovation, pride, and strategic impact.
Each session brings together practical insights from industry leaders with first-person, real-life stories from local and global product professionals who have tackled challenges and achieved breakthroughs.
Whether you’re fine-tuning stakeholder management, mastering prioritisation, or seeking inspiration, you’ll find a welcoming space to learn, collaborate, and advance your skills.
Join us in shaping a movement where Product Owners are recognised as key drivers of outcome orientation, innovation and value, transforming the profession into a globally celebrated craft.
📍Please note: the downstairs exterior doors lock at **17:00**. If you arrive after this, just ring the doorbell and we will let you in. The event begins at **17:30**.
