Women's Tango Technique with Andrea
A női tangó technika gyakorlása segít abban, hogy magabiztosabban és elegánsabban táncoljunk, valamint könnyebben kapcsolódjunk a partnerünkhöz és a zenéhez.
Hogy ne csak követőként, hanem tudatos táncosnőként legyünk jelen a táncban.
**Mikor**: Kedd, 18:00 – 19:00
**Hol:** Roxy Stúdió, 1136 Budapest, Tátra utca 4.

The Unfiltered Coffee: Real Conversation for Women in Budapest
What does success look like to you on a random Tuesday? What is an invisible talent you have that doesn't appear on your LinkedIn?
These are the conversations we have at our table. We aren’t here for surface-level networking, no. Our mission is to level up the professional experience for women in Budapest, diving into the important things that the corporate world often ignores.
COME JOIN US IF YOU'RE
* **Building your Budapest circle**, weather you're a local or a newcomer (expat), ready to make this city feel like home.
* **Hungry for high-fidelity connections** that go deeper than a business card.
* **Eager to swap stories** with women who see the world differently than you do.
* **Looking for your people** and a supportive space where you can be inspired and offer a hand to others.
THIS IS HOW IT WORKS
**We discover the city’s hidden gems together.** Once you register, you’ll receive the secret location for our gathering.
**You’ll be greeted with a warm welcome hug** **and your first coffee (or tea) is on us**. We keep our groups intimate to ensure real conversation. With the help of a facilitator and our custom cards, we open the door to insights you won't find anywhere else.
**No pressure, just presence.** You can stay quiet and listen, or share your wisdom with the group. You only share what you’re comfortable with. When the gathering ends, the connection continues, and you’ll be invited to our private community to keep the chemistry going.
WHY WE ARE DIFFERENT
We know the algorithm loves loud, party-style events, but we believe in the power of the intimate and the intentional. We are here for the women who want to be seen, heard, and truly connected.
👉 Take your seat at our table.[ Register here](https://luma.com/6t835215)

#6 Female Networking over coffee ☕ Connection Circle March Edition | Budapest
Most professional events feel like a job interview.
Most social hangouts feel like aimless small talk.
**We are here to do the opposite!**
🌟 WHY JOIN?
At the **Women’s Coffee Network**, we offer a non-traditional experience where you don't have to fight for your voice, perfect an elevator pitch, or navigate a room of strangers alone. We created this circle because **we don't believe in the hustle; we believe in the power of a steady anchor.**
This is a facilitated experience, not just a meeting.
We don’t just book a table; we curate a journey. Working with the precision of a designer and the empathy of a coach, we’ve built this soft sanctuary where **the superficial is skipped** and **the high-fidelity connection begins**. We're here to share personal stories and build professional alliances.
👉 To secure your spot, please [register via our Luma page](https://luma.com/6t835215)
🎀 WHO IS THIS FOR?
⋆☕︎ ˖ It's a **female-only community** because we have our unique way to express ourselves, struggles in the business world, and jokes only other women can understand.
⋆☕︎ ˖ If the idea of a meetup with 50 people makes you want to stay home, this circle is for you! We gather in **small, intimate groups** — to meet enough new people to have a deep conversation, but not so many that you feel anxious or overwhelmed.
⋆☕︎ ˖ Whether you are leading a corporation, building a creative empire, or navigating the quiet uncertainty of a career transition, you have a seat at our table. The **diversity of professional backgrounds** makes our circle special with shared wisdom.
⋆☕︎ ˖ Our **soft-flow dialogue** ensures that no bravery is required to be heard. You don’t have to be the loudest in the room to be the most impactful. Here, your silence is respected, and your voice is gently invited.
WHAT TO EXPECT?
* A **guided start** where every woman is seen and heard. You introduce yourself saying whatever you feel like sharing in a way that is comfortable to you.
* We use our **custom-designed materials** to move past titles and discover the humans behind the roles.
* A **verified circle** of women where you can be professionally ambitious and personally vulnerable at the same time.
* Leave with **full batteries**, meaningful new professional bridges, and the support of women who truly *get it*.

🕒 Date & Time: Saturday\, March 22nd\, 2026 \| 10:00 AM

Teszt és Tea @evosoft – 2026 Március - A Teáskannától a Teszt Architektúráig
Sziasztok!
Nagy örömel várunk titeket a következő Teszt és Tea alkalmunkra
**FONTOS RÉSZLETEK:**
Ez alkalommal az evosoft Hungary Kft. vendégei leszünk. Az esemény gördülékenysége érdekében ezért az alábbiakra figyeljetek:
* Maximum **100 fő** fog tudni jelentkezni a meetupra
* A **meetup appot** használjátok kérlek
* A jelentkezés során kérlek használjátok a **valódi neveteket** (ettől függ, hogy be tudtok-e jutni majd az irodába)
* **Jelentkezni március 17.-én napvégéig tudtok!**
Erre az estére egy különleges téma csokorral készülünk nektek: megnézzük, milyen furcsaságok alakították a szoftvertesztelés múltját, majd fejest ugrunk a jövőbe, hogy kiderítsük, ki is az a Test Architect, és hogyan navigálhatunk magabiztosan ebben az új világban.
**Az este agendája:**
* **Fekete Attila: Új ISTQB minősítések a modern tesztelésben**
Attila röviden bemutatja az újdonságokat az ISTQB certifikációk világában.
* **Mészár Imola: A teáskanna, az Evil Bit és más tesztelői rémálmok**
Mi a közös a HTTP 418-ban, az Evil Bitben és a Caps Lock-ban? Valódi szoftvertörténetek, amelyek sokkal többet árulnak el a tesztelői gondolkodásról, mint bármelyik tankönyv. Ebben az előadásban a szándékos „hibákon", rejtett állapotokon és etikai dilemmákon keresztül járjuk körbe azt a kérdést, amit minden QA-nak fel kellene tennie: nem az, hogy „működik-e" – hanem hogy kinek, és milyen feltételezésekre építve.
* **Bolyhos Csaba és Csépe Zsombor: A Tesztelés Múltja és Jövője**
A szoftvertesztelés már rég nem csak hibakeresés. A modern rendszerek világában a minőség tudatosan tervezett architektúra eredménye – ahol a Teszt Architect a pipeline, a döntések és a minőségkultúra építője. Megmutatjuk, hogyan változik ez a szerep a DevOps, a microservice-ek és az AI korszakában.
Várunk mindenkit, aki szeretné megismerni a tesztarchitektek világát, vagy csak szívesen beszélgetne egy jót a szakma jelenéről és jövőjéről!

Columbus Comedy Improv Meetup at Gresso's!
Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you knew Del Close on a personal level, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup** for some fun and games!
The idea behind improv is to create entire scenes from scratch based on a suggestion from the audience. This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway*, *ComedySportz*, or *Wild 'n Out*; it could also be done to tell stories, like *Middleditch and Schwartz*. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and free!) weekly comedy event, brings the games (and occasionally different forms) for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Not only is it a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and make friendships that'll last a lifetime!
Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "Yes, And" that you'll have fun!
NSCoder Night
Bring your work or your hobby, hang out, and code with us.
