Come to check out our hackerspace, talk to people and learn some new things, maybe use the tools for a short while, or just sit down with a laptop and do some work in a quiet place. Also a good time to sign up for a membership! We will have tea and coffee, likely also cookies. Come whenever from 19:00 till 22:00 - we might even be open until 24:00! If there's a problem (i.e. doors not open), call 28701072.

On March 17 at 18:00, there will be a home get-together, freshly baked waffles and conversation. You can **bring board games, cards, your own drinks, etc.** The more entertainment options, the better. You can come after 18:00; we'll still be there ;) The event will take place in a private apartment, when you arrive, the host (Oskars) will meet you outside. ——— ***The event is donation-based.** ——— Address: Ludzas iela 58, Riga, Latvia ——— Is there parking place ? Yes, there is, on the main street. But it's easier to get there by public transport (15 trolleybus). The bus stop is very close.

Come finish the week with drinks, banter, and make some friends ☺️ **This event does not have a host.** If nobody shows up, check out the Kiwi bar next door ☺️ Join our [WhatsApp group](https://tinyurl.com/riga-international-link) group.

Builders, creators, architects, admins, consultants - come one, come all. This one's for you. We're bringing a little friendly competition to the Columbus ServiceNow community while highlighting the cool things people have built on the platform. Five presenters will take the stage to showcase something they've built, solved, designed, or imagined on the ServiceNow platform - and a panel of judges (plus YOU, our amazing audience) will score them live. So basically, America's Got Talent but make it ServiceNow's Got Talent. Bring a notepad if you'd like 'cause you'll definitely be learning something new. Each presenter gets 10 minutes max to wow the crowd with: • A demo • A real-world business solution • A bold idea • A UX transformation • Or a creative use of the platform Judging Criteria: 🏆 Business Value 🚀 Innovation ✨ User Experience This event is about celebrating ideas, sharing knowledge, and showing how ServiceNow can drive both business impact and meaningful user value. Come learn. Come support. Come get inspired. Refreshments and bites will be provided. And maybe next time… you’ll be on stage.
