You are warmly invited to step into the Womb Room — a space for deep rest, reconnection, and inner exploration. Innerdance is not a dance in the traditional sense. It is a guided, music-and sound supported process where you are invited to lie down, close your eyes, and allow your body and mind to enter a natural state of expansion. Through carefully curated soundscapes, the brain moves into a more fluid, intuitive rhythm — often activating imagery, emotional release, insight, or deep stillness. Each experience is unique. Some travel through vivid inner landscapes, others rest in profound calm. There is no right or wrong way to experience it. The Womb Room offers a safe and held environment to: – reconnect with your body – release stored tension and emotion – access deeper layers of awareness – and return to a more natural, intuitive state You don’t need to know anything or do anything. Just arrive, lie down, and allow. This is a space to return — gently, and in your own time.

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 **About us** Vibe Coding Finland is a community for developers, designers, business professionals and tech enthusiasts who love to vibe code, learn, and connect in a relaxed and inspiring atmosphere.

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**.

Full Circle is a community of practice where mental health and wellbeing professionals come together to learn, share, and grow. ​If you’re a mental health or wellbeing practitioner who thrives on shared wisdom and community, Full Circle offers a space where you can connect, grow, and bring fresh insights back into your client work. ​**Full Circle is for professionals who work with clients in mental health or wellbeing** (e.g. psychotherapists, counsellors, art therapists, coaches, and others integrating mind–body approaches) . ​A community of practice is a space where we come together as professionals to share our experiences, challenges, and insights, not to be taught, but to learn from each other. Full Circle is about connection, not workshops. It’s a circle of peers, not a classroom. ​**By registering for this event, you agree to stand by our shared principles:** * ​Confidentiality: What is shared in the circle stays in the circle. * ​Presence: We give our full attention to each other, listening deeply. * ​Respect: Every voice matters; we value different perspectives and approaches. * ​Curiosity: We come to explore, not to give definitive answers. * ​Contribution: Everyone is encouraged to share practices, cases, and reflections. * ​Commitment: We show up consistently, knowing the community grows through regular participation. ​**How our gatherings work**: ​We gather **once a month** in person, and every time we move through the same process: * ​*Check-in*: We begin by going around the circle, with each person sharing what’s present for them in the moment. * ​*Shared practice*: One member of the community leads the group through a method, exercise, or embodied practice from their own field. Everyone experiences it first-hand. * ​*Integration dialogue*: Together, we explore what the practice brought up and how it might be woven into our client work. * ​*Check-out*: Each person shares one insight they will carry with them.

**Will take place in the event we get four signups.** **The main event page for signing up: [https://jarkkaa.fi/events/20d7c2a9-5380-4f6b-8508-1d9ced68724b](https://jarkkaa.fi/events/20d7c2a9-5380-4f6b-8508-1d9ced68724b)** The room we have reserved in Oodi has rather strict attendee limit of 10 people. The recommended way to sign up is using the link above. Main description text copied from the event page listed above: The Helsinki Haskell Users Group has not had the opportunity to actually use Haskell as a group so far, at least in the time that I have been a participant, so it is high time we corrected that! The idea behind this workshop is that we gather together to place the foundation for, and hopefully build onward from there, a library for general use in the Haskell ecosystem. As things stand, we have elected to write a library working with bidirectional parser-generators, so one definition to both be able to parse data of a given form and to generate such data. We, the organisers, offer space, a general plan of how to tackle the topic, a repository for the work (please set up a [GitHub](https://github.com/) account if you do not presently have one) and general oversight of the process with hopefully fitting some programming time ourselves just as well. You, the participant, bring Haskell code and possibly some snacks for yourself. Eating and drinking is allowed in the room, though be mindful of potential allergies. Oodi also has a cafe from which more can be bought with money. Hope to see you there!

Friendship is one of the most important parts of human life. We seek friends, rely on them, celebrate with them, and mourn their loss. Yet the nature of friendship is surprisingly difficult to define. What makes someone a friend rather than merely an acquaintance? Is friendship based on affection, trust, shared experiences, mutual support, common values, or something else? Can friendships survive profound disagreements? Do we owe our friends special loyalty, and if so, why? This meetup will explore questions such as: * What is a friend? * Why do human beings seek friendship? * What makes a friendship genuine? * Are some friendships better than others? * Can friendship exist without reciprocity? * What causes friendships to grow, fade, or end? No prior knowledge of philosophy is required. Bring your curiosity, experiences, and questions as we investigate one of the oldest and most enduring topics in philosophy. Description by ChatGPT

In the year 2044, in the age of AI, a woman named Gabrielle (Seydoux) tries to purify her DNA by purging the inherited memories of her past lives. She (re)lives her life in 1910 Paris and 2014 Los Angeles, and as the procedure goes on, the lines between her worlds become blurred. These three timelines have a lot of connective tissue holding them together; certain symbols and motifs appear repeatedly, not to mention Mackay’s Louis, a figure whom Gabrielle seems drawn to in each lifetime. *The Beast / La Bête* can be streamed for free on Kanopy or the Criterion Channel. It's also available for rent on Amazon Prime, AppleTV and YouTube.

Join us for Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn! Fresh from a brief stay at a psych hospital, reporter Camille Preaker faces a troubling assignment: she must return to her tiny hometown to cover the unsolved murder of a preteen girl and the disappearance of another. For years, Camille has hardly spoken to her neurotic, hypochondriac mother or to the half-sister she barely knows: a beautiful thirteen-year-old with an eerie grip on the town. Now, installed in her old bedroom in her family's Victorian mansion, Camille finds herself identifying with the young victims—a bit too strongly. Dogged by her own demons, she must unravel the psychological puzzle of her own past if she wants to get the story-and survive this homecoming.

**Our June novel is: *The Eights* by Joanna Miller** **This month’s novel is set during World War I. It’s a 20th-century historical fiction story about friendship and war, with coming-of-age elements and a slightly haunted tone. The book is 384 pages in print and 10 hours and 9 minutes on audiobook.** Oxford, 1920. For the first time in its one-thousand-year history, Oxford University officially admits female students. Burning with dreams of equality, four young women move into neighboring rooms in Corridor 8. Beatrice, Dora, Marianne, and Otto—collectively known as The Eights—come from all walks of life, each driven by their own motives, each holding tight to their secrets, and are thrown into an unlikely, unshakable friendship. Dora was never meant to go to university, but, after losing both her brother and her fiancé on the battlefield, has arrived in their place. Politically-minded Beatrice, daughter of a famous suffragette, sees Oxford as a chance to make her own way - and some friends her own age. Otto was a nurse during the war but is excited to return to her socialite lifestyle in Oxford where she hopes to find distraction from the memories that haunt her. And finally Marianne, the quiet, clever daughter of a village pastor, who has a shocking secret she must hide from everyone, even her new friends, if she is to succeed. Among the historic spires, and in the long shadow of the Great War, the four women must navigate and support one another in a turbulent world in which misogyny is rife, influenza is still a threat, and the ghosts of the Great War don’t always remain dead.
