Speaker: Utku Can Ozturk, Data Scientist and main developer of the Gigaspatial project Geospatial data is critical for global development, but practitioners constantly battle fragmented data, scaling issues, and complex integrations across vector and raster formats. Enter GigaSpatial, an open-source Python library built by UNICEF’s Giga initiative to help connect every school in the world to the internet. In this talk, we will explore the architecture behind GigaSpatial and how it replaces the need to stitch together a dozen different tools to answer a single spatial question. We will dive into how the library orchestrates data collection, transformation, and standardisation pipelines at scale. By leveraging strict configuration validation, object-oriented data connectors, and seamless multi-store management, GigaSpatial provides a unified API to wrangle spatial data. Finally, we’ll look at real-world applications across 30 countries, from validating point-of-interest data against multiple global building footprints to running zonal aggregations using different grid systems. Whether you are a data engineer, a GIS professional, or a Python developer interested in open-source architecture, you might find this talk an interesting look into how we build robust spatial pipelines; and we would love to explore ways you can contribute to this global mission. 📅 **Date:** 21 May ⏰ **Start time:** 19:00 h 📍 **Location:** [Akasha Hub](https://maps.app.goo.gl/CZE8q8uaag8UgnRCA) \- Carrer de la Verneda\, 19\, Nau 1 · Barcelona

**THE ACTOR'S INSTRUMENT** is a weekly practice dedicated to developing the actor's primary tool: **the self** **THIS WORK FOCUSES ON:** Presence, responsiveness, imagination and the ability to act truthfully under imaginary circumstances. **IT IS NOT ABOUT PERFORMANCE or RESULT.** **IT IS ABOUT PROCESS, AWARENESS, AND AVAILABILITY** **THE WORK:** * Through structured exercises and guided exploration, actors train: * Attention and concentration * Physical and Vocal awareness * Emotional availability * Imagination and impulse * Connection to partner and enviroment **THE WORK IS ACTIVE, PRACTICAL AND ROOTED IN DOING.** **THE APPROACH:** This is a safe space to practice, not presentation. **Actors are invited to:** * Let go of fixed outcomes * Work moment to moment * Explore without forcing results * Develop sensitivity to impulse and response * The aim is to build an instrument that is awake, responsive and precise. **WHO THIS IS FOR:** * Actors at any stage of their development * Artists interested in deepening their craft * Those looking for a consistent, focused practice **STRUCTURE:** Sessions are * Guided * Participatory * Process-oriented Work may include solo exercises, partner work and group exploration.

Want to build websites with **modern WordPress**? Come practice with us. **What happens during the session?** * We pick a real website section together — a banner, a team section, a pricing table — from a live site or a Figma file * We reproduce it using WordPress's new block editor (Gutenberg & FSE) * We work in pairs — two people, one laptop, building together **Good to know:** * Spots are limited to 6 — small enough to have real conversations and make real connections * Stuck on something? Someone in the group will be happy to help **Who is it for?** * ​Entrepreneurs, freelancers, developers, designers, or anyone curious about building websites with modern WordPress * ​Some WordPress experience is helpful — no previous experience with the new editor needed **What to bring?** * Your laptop with a local WordPress install — we recommend [LocalWP](https://localwp.com/), it's free and takes 5 minutes to set up * A block theme activated (Twenty Twenty-Five works perfectly) **What is "modern WordPress"?** WordPress has evolved from a simple blog editor into a full site design tool called Gutenberg & Full Site Editing (FSE). You can now build every part of your website — header, footer, templates, page layouts — using visual drag-and-drop blocks, without touching a single line of code. This makes heavy page builders like Elementor unnecessary: no bloat, no plugin dependency. Modern WordPress loads only the styles each page actually needs, resulting in faster, lighter sites — and because clean code and speed are exactly what Google rewards, your SEO improves naturally too. Most WordPress users haven't made the jump yet — this meetup is the place to start. \*\*\* 🇪🇸 ¿Buscas eventos en español? Te recomiendo el grupo WordPress Barcelona 👉 meetup.com/wordpressbcn

Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs. This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context. We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing. **SPEAKER BIO** Mosaic Syed is a Senior Data Engineering and Cloud Solutions Architect with over 20 years of experience designing and delivering scalable, secure, and high-performance data solutions across global enterprise environments. https://www.linkedin.com/in/mosaic-basha-syed-92300856 **CALL FOR SPEAKERS** Learn more: [https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/](https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/) **THANK YOU** *VEEAM* for hosting our meetup!
