Barcelona: Beyond the hype: real AI use cases from the people doing the work
**‼️IMPORTANT! Please register on [Luma Page](https://luma.com/1gb0mkfm) ‼️**
*Everyone is talking about AI. Few are sharing what actually happens after the headlines.*
*What does AI look like when it moves beyond the hype, LinkedIn hot takes, and “10 prompts that will change your life” energy? How are people really using it inside startups, businesses, education, community building, and product development?*
Join us for an evening of practical insights from founders, builders, educators, and innovators who use AI in real projects — not just talk about it.
Hosted by Projector Global Community by [@prjctr_institute](https://prjctr.com/en), in collaboration with[ Xolo ](https://www.xolo.io/es-en/home?ref=OLENAPRJCTR?utm_source=olena&utm_medium=community&utm_campaign=prjctr_spain&utm_content=socials)and [ESEI business school ](https://www.eseibusinessschool.com/)Barcelona, this event is designed for people who want to understand where AI creates real value today: what works, what doesn’t, what’s still messy, and how AI is changing the way we build, collaborate, learn, and grow.
**Together, we’ll unpack:**
→ How AI is being used in real projects across different industries
→ What happens after the first excitement and experimentation stage
→ Where AI creates actual business, product, educational, and community value
→ What founders, educators, and builders are learning from using AI in practice
→ What still doesn’t work as smoothly as everyone pretends
→ How to think about AI not as a trend, but as a working tool
And yes, we’ll also have an interactive panel discussion where speakers will share their honest takes, real examples, and lessons learned from working with AI in different contexts. Practical. Human. No “AI will replace us all by Monday” drama.
**Speakers:**
→ [Arie Elbelman](https://www.linkedin.com/in/arieelbelman/?locale=en&utm_source=luma) — Community Builder, Educator & Facilitator
→ [Paolo Giordano](https://www.linkedin.com/in/paologiordano1/?utm_source=luma) — CEO at FlyKube
→ [Oleksiy Denysyuk](https://www.linkedin.com/in/alekseydenysyuk/?utm_source=luma) — Startup Mentor & Adviser
**For whom:**
→ Entrepreneurs and founders exploring AI for business growth
→ Professionals who want to use AI more strategically at work
→ Students and early-career specialists curious about real AI applications
→ Educators, community builders, and creators experimenting with AI
→ Product people, marketers, operators, and builders looking for practical use cases

Navigating Kubernetes Policies with Kyverno 🚀
Join us for our first [Kyverno](https://kyverno.io/)-dedicated meetup before the summer break 🌴
We want to thank **[Schwarz Digits Spain](https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwarz-digits-spain/)** for kindly hosting us for this evening of learning and networking!
**🧭** **What is Kyverno?**
**[Kyverno](https://kyverno.io/)** is a CNCF-graduated, Kubernetes-native policy engine. Unlike other tools that require learning a new programming language, Kyverno allows you to manage cluster governance, security, and compliance using familiar Kubernetes manifests. With zero coding required, you can easily:
* **Validate**: Block non-compliant resources before they hit your cluster.
* **Mutate**: Automatically inject sidecars, labels, or configurations on the fly.
* **Generate**: Automatically create new resources (such as NetworkPolicies or ConfigMaps) when a new namespace is provisioned.
**📅 Agenda**
* **18:30-18:45**. Doors Open.
* **18:45-19:45**. Talks (see below).
* **19:45-20:30**. Mingling and food.
**📍Location:**
c/ Bergara 13\, Barcelona \| [https://maps.app.goo.gl/zd6h3BGzHNxgAgjT6](https://maps.app.goo.gl/zd6h3BGzHNxgAgjT6)
**🎙️ Talks**
**1️⃣ The Kyverno Five: New Policy Types And What You Can Do With Them**, [Cortney Nickerson](https://www.linkedin.com/in/cortney-nickerson-26836413a/) *\- Head of Community at [Nirmata](https://nirmata.com)* (Talk in English 🇬🇧)
As Kubernetes has evolved, so has Kyverno! This talk provides a tour of the five new Kyverno policy types, ValidatingPolicy, ImageValidatingPolicy, MutatingPolicy, GeneratingPolicy, DeletingPolicy, with real-world examples of how you can use them to solve complex security, automation, and governance issues. The talk will end by showcasing how you can combine the usage of these policy types, for advanced platform engineering solutions.
**2️⃣ Kyverno más allá de la validación: automatización con mutación y generación de recursos**, [Javier Dompablo](https://www.linkedin.com/in/javier-d-62a7b824b) - *Expert Platform Engineer and Product Security en [Schwarz Digits](https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwarz-digits-spain/)* (Talk in Spanish 🇪🇸)
En esta sesión exploraremos dos de las capacidades más potentes de Kyverno: la mutación y la generación de recursos. Veremos cómo automatizar las configuraciones, aplicar de forma transparente los estándares de la plataforma a los equipos de desarrollo y reducir la carga operativa mediante la creación y la modificación automáticas de recursos en Kubernetes. A través de ejemplos prácticos, descubriremos cómo implementar políticas que mejoran la consistencia, la seguridad y la gobernanza de los clústeres sin necesidad de modificar las aplicaciones.

URBAN SKETCHING
It's the practice of drawing what surrounds you. It consists of capturing your personal vision of your immediate world, or the places you travel to. It's a narrative of everyday life: that coffee shop that motivates you, the streets or parks you walk through that inspire you, etc.
Sketch without fear of making mistakes, move beyond figurative and realistic styles to experiment with the style you enjoy the most.
Come and experiment!
Stop prompting. Start building agents with criteria
**🔎The session:**
AI is already part of how we work, but most people are still using it as a chat or an autocomplete tool. The next step is moving from asking for help to letting AI actually do parts of the work for you. **That is where agents come in**.
In this session, we explore **how to build and use AI agents in a practical way using tools like GitHub Copilot, Agent Mode, MCP, and reusable skills**. The focus is not on complex architectures, but on what is useful in real day-to-day work.
We walk you through **what an AI agent is** and why it makes sense to use one instead of just prompts or simple automations. You will see how agents can reason, plan, and execute tasks across multiple steps, and how to apply patterns that already work in production.
We also look at **how this fits into your existing workflow**, especially in environments like VS Code, and **how agents can connect to real systems and data**. Real examples will show how to automate documentation, interact with data platforms such as Microsoft Fabric, and create reusable workflows that save time.
The session also **covers common mistakes**, including overcomplicating solutions with too many agents, and how to keep things simple, controlled, and maintainable.
🎯**The goal is to give you a clear and practical understanding so you can start using agents in your own work without overengineering.**
👩💻**This session is for you if:**
* you are a developer working with code on a daily basis
* you use tools like VS Code, GitHub, or similar environments
* you are an engineer interested in improving productivity using AI beyond autocomplete
* you want to explore how to integrate AI agents into real workflows
-No prior experience with AI agents is required
-Basic understanding of development workflows is enough

ReactJS Barcelona - Lodgify June
New Meetup is here! Let's gooo! We have some amazing speakers, and pizza and beer will be available after the event.
──────────
**18:00: Welcome**
Grab a beer, a snack, and a seat until everybody arrives!
**18:30 Intro by Host Neciu Dan**
**18:45 The Package Was Fine Yesterday: Why Your Dependencies Are a Security Risk - and What to Do About It**
Speaker: [Vitaly Baev](https://www.linkedin.com/in/vitaly-baev/), Senior Frontend Engineer @ Revolut
Every JS project relies heavily on third-party code. Some of it runs during install, some in CI, some inside the editor, and some with access to real credentials. This talk explains how recent supply-chain attacks abused that trust and what developers can do to reduce risk without stopping delivery.
**19:20 Under the hood: How V8 powers your JS apps (and why you should care)**
Speaker: [Gwyneth Rose](https://www.linkedin.com/in/gwyneth-rose/), Senior Engineer at Lodgify
You've transpiled your JavaScript, minified it, chunked it, and sent it to your CDN. But what happens when the code actually hits the browser? In this talk, we'll walk through the workings of V8, the JavaScript engine that powers Chromium-based browsers and Node.js. We'll focus on its JIT (just-in-time) compiler, how it learns about your code at runtime, and how it optimizes for performance as you use a web app. We'll also go over concrete techniques to make the JIT compiler's job easier, helping you stay in V8's fastest execution path.
**19:50: Drinks and networking!**

OBJECTIVE
🌳 Come and explore the best beaches and coves just 40 minutes from Barcelona with cliffs, forests, and charming towns: from the fishing town of Vilanova to artistic Sitges.
📸 I will teach you how to technically and conceptually improve your photographs with your mobile camera or a professional one, with no prior knowledge required.
👁️🗨️ We will work on how to use focus to achieve blurred contrasts, improve light, manual control, and creative effects.
👁 I will tell you the history of the place, its fauna, and its flora. Through photography and meditative hiking, we will work on active observation of the landscape to connect with the environment, with yourself, and disconnect from your routine.
🧘♀️ The goal is connection with nature and not the kilometers to cover. We will do 20 minutes of silence during the journey.
🚶♂️🚶♀️ Meet future friends with your same passions.
PLAN
👥 We will be a small group of 6 to 20 people to respect the environment of the explored areas and to interact better among ourselves.
🐶 Animal companions welcome.
🥾 We will enjoy an easy 13 km route and 200 m elevation gain.
⏳ Duration: 11h. Includes 40 min of transport each way.
🚂 We will take the 9:15 AM train until arriving in Vilanova i la Geltrú at 10:00 AM.
☕ We will have breakfast to gather strength for the adventure.
🌊 There we will do a charming linear artistic route with a stop for a refreshing swim.
📍 We will return from Sitges station on the 6:28 PM train, arriving at Sants at 7:10 PM.
🌊 Anyone interested can join a post-hike plan at a beautiful cove in Sitges.
🚗 Let me know if you want to get on at another stop or go directly by car (returning by train from Sitges to Vilanova, just one stop away).
🎁 Take home my audiovisual report of the experience and the photo series taken by your companions and yourself as a keepsake.
✍️ I will give you photography guidelines and exercises to keep improving your photography.
Let's create a memorable excursion!

ARTISTIC HIKING
Walking mindfully as an aesthetic practice, and not just as transit between two points, reveals a rich range of facets in experiencing the landscape.
🔹 Multisensory landscape: Feeling the landscape through touch, sound, and smell develops our perceptive and creative personality.
🔹 Peri-urban drift: Exploring without a fixed route along the borders between cities and forests brings unexpected stimuli and discoveries.
🔹 Time bubble: Being in the present, completely isolated from past and future.
To the adventure!

IxDA Chat n Pancakes
You can sleep in on the Sesquicentennial (observed), we’re shifting to the following Friday.
But join the local UX community for a chat and some biscuits to catch up. If you were in CA for Figma Config, tell us all the lines and you can tell me how I can animate an SVG without coding it by hand, and why I’d even want to.
Thanks to the team at Nationwide of supporting the group.
Columbus Code & Coffee 88 @ Improving
Columbus Code & Coffee is an inclusive, informal co-working session. People of all skill levels attend, and we love it that way. Many people (optionally) bring projects to work on, and many other people (optionally) socialize the entire time. It's entirely up to you!
**What to Expect at the Intro Circle**
\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~
Near the beginning of the event (1:30 pm), we do a standup:
* Organizer announcements, updates, and logistics
Round 1 - (7 secs max):
* Your name
* What you're working on
* What you can help others with
Round 2:
* Community events you wanna plug. If none, that's cool too.
Round 3:
* Job opportunities you're hiring for OR announce that you are looking for one. If none, that's cool.
After the introduction circle, everything is self-organized! Feel free to work alone, pair up, attend one of our workshops/presentations, or mingle!
Data & Analytics Wednesday - Learning from Everyday Data
**Practical Curiosity: Learning from Everyday Data**
How do we actually get better at utilizing our day-to-day data? Fancy dashboards and complex models might look nice and draw attention, but that’s not where most of us spend our time. In fact those shiny outputs frequently sit unused, while the real insights are drawn from the analyst’s daily practice.
Sometimes it’s as simple and as powerful as noticing that a segment is shrinking, a channel is underused, or certain links keep getting all the clicks. There’s many different places that the spark of insight can come from, but you have to keep your head in the data and know where to look.
In this session, we’ll explore real-world examples of how segmentation, testing, and click behavior can uncover practical digital marketing opportunities. You’ll leave with inspiration for your own use cases, along with a few simple ways to ask better questions, spot meaningful patterns, and make smarter decisions without overcomplicating it.
**About Our Speaker:**
[Elaine Armbruster](https://www.linkedin.com/in/elainearmbruster/) is a Director of Digital Experience at the [American Diabetes Association](https://diabetes.org/), where she focuses on using data and insights to create smarter, more effective digital experiences. A lifelong Columbus resident, she has built her career in email marketing and the broader digital user journey, and is finding she most enjoys working in the messy middle where systems, data, and big ideas don’t quite line up yet.

American Sign Language Beginners Meetup Group
We meet to learn and practice American Sign Language and to grow our familiarity with Deaf culture. Facilitated by hearing folks (with a connection to a professional interpreter) using Deaf-created content. People of all ASL skill levels are welcome! As we learn, we hope to connect more with the Deaf community in Central Ohio. Join us as you're able!
Come regularly or just once - whatever you're looking for! Each meetup will explore different topics related to ASL/Deaf culture, and will feature time to practice conversation with one another. Just bring yourself and a willingness to learn!
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.
