**Több, mint egy közös sörözés.** Bár a jéghideg sör jó ürügy a találkozásra, a lényeg idén is a szakmán van: pörgős előadásokkal és az épp aktuális témákkal készülünk. Áprilisban szeretnénk összehozni a ServiceNow közösséget egy kötetlen estére, ahol a minőségi tartalom mellé most is jut bőven a jó hangulatból. Gyere el, és koccintsunk egyet! ❗️ **Az esemény ingyenes, de regisztrációhoz kötött:** [BeerUP ServiceNow Edition 2026 regisztráció](https://www.mndwrk.com/beerup-servicenow-edition-2026) ##### Az előadók, és az általuk hozott témák: Bözöri Dániel - Advisory Solution Architect (ServiceNow) Vígh Gergely- ServiceNow Architect CTA (Accenture) Boros Bulcsu - ServiceNow Architect CMA,CTA (Sofigate) Dombai András - ServiceNow Architect CMA (Rubico) **1\. előadás \-** **AI Agentek a ServiceNow platformon – mikor használjuk, mikor ne?** A ServiceNow és az AI fejlődése rengeteg új kaput nyit meg, de a generatív megoldások és az AI Agentek nem minden helyzetben jelentenek automatikusan jobb választ. Az előadás során azt járjuk körbe, hogyan lehet tudatosan, az üzleti értékre fókuszálva beépíteni ezeket a funkciókat a vállalati környezetbe. Megnézzük, milyen problémákra érdemes valóban AI-t használni, és hol hatékonyabbak a hagyományos workflow-k vagy szabályalapú megoldások. Szó lesz a technológiai korlátokról, a kockázatokról és arról a határvonalról, ami elválasztja a látványos tech-demót a valódi, hosszú távon is fenntartható üzleti értéktől. **2\. előadás \- Scoped Application mint belső szolgáltatás** Az előadás a ServiceNow Scoped Application koncepcióját mutatja be a modern mikroszolgáltatás-alapú szemlélet tükrében, rávilágítva arra, hogyan válthatóak valódi belső szolgáltatássá az elkülönített, jól menedzselhető alkalmazások. A résztvevők megismerhetik a moduláris és skálázható ügyféligények tervezésének módszertanát, valamint az Open API szabványokra és egyedi integrációkra épülő technikai szolgáltatások platformszintű előnyeit. A prezentáció gyakorlati útmutatást ad ahhoz, hogyan építhetőek strukturált, újrafelhasználható és könnyen karbantartható megoldások komplex ServiceNow környezetben. **3\. előadás \-** **Extension Points in Practice – hogyan tervezzünk jól és használjuk őket skálázhatóan?** Az extension pointok hatalmas szabadságot adnak, de ha félrecsúszik a tervezés, a megoldás hamar nehezen karbantarthatóvá és törékennyé válhat. A kérdés az, hogyan használjuk őket úgy, hogy valóban a skálázhatóságot szolgálják, és ne a technikai adósságot növeljük. Valós példákon keresztül nézzük meg a jól működő struktúrákat, a tipikus hibákat és azokat a bevált tervezési mintákat, amikkel hosszú távon is fenntartható marad az architektúra. Kiderítjük, hol van az a pont, ahol tényleg érdemes hozzájuk nyúlni, és mikor célravezetőbb más utat választani. **4\. előadás \- Adat és folyamat szeparáció a gyakorlatban** Az előadás betekintést nyújt banki környezetben, nemzetközi leányvállalati kiterjesztés kihívásaira , amit az adat és folyamat szeparáció koncepciójának bevezetésével támogattunk. A következő kérdések lesznek fókuszban: \- Hogyan lehet Domain Separation nélkül adatot és folyamatot leválasztani? \- Milyen esetekben lehet rá szükség? \- "Értem én\, hogy gőzgép\, de mi hajtja\!?"

El objetivo de este encuentro es romper el hielo, hablar de las historias que nos gusta escribir, de por qué escribimos, de los libros que nos gusta leer, de qué dificultades encontramos al enfrentarnos al folio en blanco y de qué esperamos del grupo. En definitiva, se trata de conocernos como personas para entendernos como escritores. No importa si has escrito diez novelas, cuatro cuentos o el precioso título de un poema sin versos. Aquí todo aspirante a juntaletras es bienvenido.

*“we add the feelings of delight of successful executive instruments, the useful 'under-wills' or under-souls—indeed, our body is but a social structure composed of many souls—to our feelings of delight as commander”* **Friedrich Nietzsche - Beyond Good and Evil.** **(In english!)** This session is designed as a beginner's workshop, even if you haven't read or don't know Nietzsche's work. And if you do but would like to deepen and share your knowledge, you are also welcomed. We will focus on a few clusters from just the first two chapters of *Beyond Good and Evil*. Reading, clarifying, and discussing his aphorisms, covering 5 main topics. We split into separated groups and there will be practical work. The focus will be on some of Nietzsche’s most provocative ideas. From the rejection of simple opposites, to the first appearance of the will to power. The goal is to understand what Nietzsche is really attacking, where his insights are still up to date, and if and where he may be overstretching. This time a notebook and pen is recommended. **Introduction of guests (10 minutes)** We start with a short introduction of the guests. Those who are familiar with Nietzsche will seat next to those who aren't in a more or less homogeneous distribution. **The topics to discuss (1 hour and 45 minutes)** 1. **Truth, contraries, and the prejudice of philosophers** Excerpts: **1–4**, **24**, **31**. 2. **The unity of the self: ego, will, commonwealth, masks** Excerpts: **12**, **16–17**, **19**, **26–27**, **40**. 3. **Freedom, free will, determinism, and the free spirit** Excerpts: **21–22**, **29**, **34**, **41–44**. 4. **Psychology against philosophy: resentment, indignation, morality as symptom** Excerpts: **5–6**, **23**, **30**, **32–33**, **38–39**. 5. **Will to power as the deep explanatory wager** Excerpts: **13**, **19**, **22–23**, **36**. **RSVP**: As this is a different format than usual I will let a maximum of 16 people. Please confirm your attendance by transferring: • 3,000 HUF — Workshop entry (please support the venue buying any drink) • 6,000 HUF — Entry + veggie bruschetta • 8,000 HUF — Entry + veggie bruschetta + alcohol-free red wine Please, sign up here: [https://forms.gle/pEjhTLLkDGBWJS1N7](https://forms.gle/pEjhTLLkDGBWJS1N7?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBEwb1FaR1hyTGJFSXZYeDVlaHNydGMGYXBwX2lkEDIyMjAzOTE3ODgyMDA4OTIAAR6EZUT9iwDH3EokkwJFynJFBDWeH8upis9o_TKhzQuFShYpWUqOEJ2jcCCR0w_aem_7p274cXA4ZIGQYNOMhZH4g) And make the payment here: [https://revolut.me/marcoshht/pocket/ZtuHAUE1NO](https://revolut.me/marcoshht/pocket/ZtuHAUE1NO?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBEwb1FaR1hyTGJFSXZYeDVlaHNydGMGYXBwX2lkEDIyMjAzOTE3ODgyMDA4OTIAAR664E5SHLpYlZ7cIdEPCPULV1XvR0c8sZKgwfe67wqm_TfSgubMoAVcj-inKw_aem_FAi0Woh7heWIUccOlmRH9A)

Practice Buddhist meditation in the middle of Budapest! The meditation is suitable for beginners. Each regular meditation is guided and begins with a short introduction. (all together is about 30-40 minutes) Our regular Buddhist meditations have proven popular with people who want to integrate authentic Buddhist methods into their daily lives. For the modern lay person who is juggling work, relationships, and an active role in society, we teach a meditation that is easy to learn, and profound and powerful for experienced practitioners. The meditation originates from the Karma Kagyu tradition of Tibetan Buddhism. It has a cumulative effect on mind, leading to greater clarity and calmness. Fearlessness, joy, and active compassion are the result of regular practice of Buddhist meditation. * Do I need any special clothing? No special clothing needed. * Does the attendance cost anything? No, the meditation is free.

In this session, we dive into Pranayama, (an ancient practice to discover the flow of energy within) and the power of conscious breathing, which is one of the most important aspects of the original yogic lifestyle. On these Tuesday evenings, we do more than just a breathwork session: this is an opportunity to explore a true harmony between our breath & the mind - body connection. We begin with a 15-minute chest-opening yoga sequence to gently expand our lungs and prepare for deeper breathing (no need for gym clothes though, just an open mind). Then, we explore different breathing techniques designed for self-awareness, relaxation, and energy flow. These classes are designed to help you discover how breath can be a tool to balance, energize, and center yourself. To close, we immerse in a short yet profound "silent concert", a meditative sound journey where 174 Hz sound waves or white noise guide us into a state of deep harmony. Whether emotions are light or heavy, thoughts are clear or clouded, this is a space to simply be and find some peace.

Join us to swap stories, practice new languages, and build genuine friendships across cultures.

Egy tinifiú hipp-hopp uralkodó lesz tündérországban? Ennyitől még lehetne egy gyerekkönyv is akár. De ettől a könyvtől nem fog egy gyerek sem Halloween-kor koboldnak öltözni, mert nem a pózok és a grandiózus csaták hangsúlyosak benne. Hősünk a helyét keresi, és egészen üdítő egy gyerek idealizmusával látni a politikai helyezkedéseken túl azt az ambíciót, hogy ő egy jó császár szeretne lenni. Zsáner irodalmon belül ez egy szokatlanul lassúkás és elgondolkodós könyv, de javaslom a végén található jegyzék tanulmányozását, mert fantasyhez illően minden rang és megszólítás helyett újított az író, hogy megalkossa a császári udvar hivatalos nyelvezetét. Remélem, hogy nektek is tetszeni fog, és beszélgetünk egy jót!

Get to know others and discover, reinforce & improve yourself through this psychological community game! **"Identity**" is a psychological self-improvement game that lets participants have a glimpse into themselves and each other from different aspects of life and providing opportunity to share relevant experiences and thoughts. You'll get a random simple task with every card you draw such as: **"Most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be.**" -> How could you use this insight? What does it say to you? How does it bring you forward? "**When did you last have me-time?** What did you do? What things do you usually do for your own joy?" "**Every ending opens up a new gate.**" -> Recall at least 2 painful stations in your life when something important for you ended! What good things could begin thanks to these endings? Substantial short talks in a respectful, non-judgemental (really: judgements, *even advices* are forbidden by the rules!) environment, while comfortably having a drink. Let others surprise you positively, learn about them, reflect on yourself internally and improve your personal life thanks to select short tasks that aim to bring you forward! **The game will be held in english!** The game only exists in hungarian version, so for instant translation of the cards, **Google Lens is recommended on your phone**! The event will be held in the "Másik Szoba" Café and Bar (part of the Élesztőház): https://elesztohaz.hu/reszeink/masikszoba/

A different way to end the week. **Friday Sobers: The Tea Social** is a relaxed Friday evening gathering at Okuma — good tea, small bites, and easy conversation from 6 to 9PM. Each table is poured a different tea, so the simplest way to meet someone new is to wander over and taste what they’re brewing. No alcohol, no rush — just a warm room, an open seat, and something worth sipping Ticked event, please book here: [https://okuma.space/event/friday-sobers-the-tea-social-2/](https://okuma.space/event/friday-sobers-the-tea-social-2/)

A WiA Collective Wisdom Exchange At the start of this year, we gathered to look back, set intentions, and imagine the next chapter. This is the follow-up. Not a check-in. Not a progress report. A small, facilitated circle to reconnect with what you said mattered — and honestly explore what’s actually happening now. Together, we’ll explore: • What you intended at the start of this year - and what that looks like three months in • What’s surprised you, supported you, or shifted • What the next chapter needs now that you know what you know If you were at our January gathering, bring whatever you made or wrote — your word, your artifact, your intention. We’ll look at it with fresh eyes. If this is your first time, you belong here too. You’ll start where we all started: with what’s true right now. Optional art materials will be available for anyone who wants to reflect creatively alongside conversation. If you brought something home from January, you’re warmly invited to bring it back. The intention is the same as always: everyone leaves feeling more clear, more connected, and a little lighter. Space is intentionally limited to keep the experience intimate. What to Expect • A small, welcoming circle (not a large meetup) • Structured conversation so everyone has space to speak • Reflection, listening, and lived experience — not advice-giving • Optional creative reflection alongside conversation • A calm, supportive environment Who This Is For Women and underrepresented folks working in or around agile, product, technology, leadership, or organizational change — especially those looking for honest conversation and community beyond frameworks and buzzwords. Good to Know • No preparation required • If you attended in January, we invite you to bring anything you created or wrote (or something that represents your intention at the start of the year) - it’s optional but invited • Participation is invitational; listening is always welcome • Creative activities are optional

**We'll hike 3.4 miles on the Killdeer and Yellowlegs Trails - both out and back gravel trails. If we want more mileage we can repeat an out and back. Pace of around 3.5 mph, no one left behind and those who want to go faster sure can!** **As always optional lunch after.** **This is the second Metro Park in the lineup - with 21 to go (plus more are being added).** **Also I have a conflict and am not available so have asked Karin to lead!**

**Over time I'm hoping to organize a hike to all the Franklin County Metro Parks. This is the first one so if you're interested jump in!** **We'll start with the Canopy Walk, a cool feature of this park. Climb 100 stairs to the top - or take the elevator if stairs aren't your thing. At the top there are a bunch of things to play on - a rope bridge, a fireman pole that we can slide down - and more! About fifteen minutes there and we'll head to the natural trail, Buttonbush, Maple and Beech Trail for 2.2 miles then do a 1.7 mile loop on the paved Greenway Trail. We'll be passing our cars as we transition if you only want to do the first loop, or the second loop. Pace of around 3.5 mph but no one left behind.** **If there is an interest we can grab lunch nearby afterward at Prost Beer and Wine Cafe. Www.prostcafe.com** **Blacklick Woods Canopy Walk is at 6711 East Livingston Ave, Reynoldsburg OH**
