Erfahre bei unserer Veranstaltung, wie Wikipedia und ihre Schwesterprojekte funktionieren, lerne wie du selbst mitschreiben kannst und finde heraus, welche Artikel zu deinen Lieblingsthemen noch fehlen. Oder vielleicht interessierst Du Dich für Fotografie und würdest gerne mehr über die Commons-Lizenzen und die Mitarbeit an der Bilddatenbank Wikimedia Commons erfahren? Auch dann bist Du herzlich Willkommen! 🕖 Termine: jeden 1. und 3. Mittwoch des Monats ab 18.30 Uhr ℹ️ Aktuelle Termine: [https://w.wiki/tv](https://w.wiki/tv) Mehr Informationen: [WomenEdit-Seite](https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WomenEdit/Treffen_(Berlin)) Die Teilnahme ist kostenfrei.

**This is 100% non-profit. The 15€ sign up fee for everyone is only to minimize last-minute cancellations. The total sum goes to a bar-tap that everyone can use to order drinks until the amount is used up. ‼️NO REFUNDS‼️** **‼️Please don't just show up without RSVPing here and paying the 15€. We have a separate room that has limited capacity and a specific drinks agreement with the bar - so splitting up the bill won't become a mess.‼️** **Small update on how your money get's used from May 2024 onwards:** As of this month, meetup.com has started charging me 34€ instead of 16€ per month. I've decided to distribute this fee evenly among all us participants every month. Example: In the last 12 meetups, the average number of attendees was 17. With 17 attendees I would effectively collect 230€ (after fees). I would now substract 34€ leaving us with 196€ that go to the bar. 15% get's tipped to the wait staff, in this case 30€, leaving us with 166€ effectively to order drinks. Hope everyone is cool with this system. :) Website: https://www.pberg-engineers.me WhatsApp groups: Please come and join us on WhatsApp! \- "PBerg Engineers \- NEWS" \- Only organizers can post announcements or polls \-\> https://chat\.whatsapp\.com/EqMJMmlCZO6LOOfAoG4yTj \- "PBerg Engineers \- DISCUSS" \- Everyone can post \-\> https://chat\.whatsapp\.com/LPuo76J83gF6IZMLUcM4u2 Please join those groups now if you're interested. :) All skill/education-levels welcome! :) Lightning Talks: \- TBD We'll also have a brief "Jobs: Lost & Found section". **Location:** From the street you will have to enter the right hand Cafe Chagall (yes, there are 2).

The Moody Comedy Show is an interactive stand-up experience where the audience sets the tone! Just like in life, we all have different moods—happy, angry, excited, or maybe just “meh”—and comedians are no different. Each performer will embrace their mood on stage, delivering jokes that match their vibe, whether they’re feeling upbeat, frustrated, or existential. But that’s not all—you get to join in too! Audience members will write down their mood, and we’ll pull from a hat, riffing on your emotions in real-time. It’s a comedy show that evolves with the energy in the room https://www.eventbrite.de/e/moody-comedy-showcase-tickets-1276031276899?aff=oddtdtcreator

On the 1st of July we will host the next iteration of our monthly Audio Developer Meetup where **Peggy Sylopp** from [sinceare](https://www.sinceare.com/) will be presenting her work on personalization approaches for hearables, and **Vlad Litvinenko** will demo 'Spotykach', a looping playground. See below for details! As always, there will be a chance to network over drinks and pizza. Anyone interested in Audio development is welcome! Doors open at 18:00, talks start at 18:15. Please note: Attendance is **strictly limited** to people who have RSVP'd. Talk details: **Can users train their own audio system?** \- Peggy Sylopp In this talk, we present Sinceare’s closed-loop personalization approach for hearables. Instead of relying on predefined fitting rules or static presets, users teach the system how it should sound through interaction and feedback. These preferences are transformed into personalized machine-learning models that learn how to control existing audio processing algorithms according to individual preferences. Rather than replacing audio DSP algorithms, the generated models act as an adaptive control layer that continuously adjusts algorithm parameters based on user-specific listening preferences. Based on more than eight years of research and a recent study conducted with Fraunhofer IDMT and Charité, we will share insights into user-driven audio model generation, human-in-the-loop machine learning, and the path from research prototype to future embedded hearable deployment. **Spotykach, a looping playground** \- Vlad Litvinenko Vlad is a Berlin based software developer doing e-commerce by day, bleeping machines at night and sometimes music in between. The talk is about device they’ve recently built. It’s “Spotykach”, a looping playground, as they call it. It started from an attempt to do a simple Beat-Repeat kind of plugin, but then evolved into a community project within Synthux Academy with people from different backgrounds and countries.

Only 1% of Venture Capital reaches all-female teams. Nina Wöss is on a mission to change that. ### Gender-diverse and and all-female startups receive just 9% of all venture capital according to the latest Female Founders Monitor 2025 published by Start-Up Verband Germany and Bertelsmann Stiftung in 2025. These numbers have not changed much in the last 10 years. New ideas are needed to change a system that is not leveraging all its potential. Creating new specialized venture funds is one solution. In this session, Nina Wöss—Managing Partner of the VC Fund F tells us what motivated her to found a venture capital fund specializing in gender-diverse founders only. Fund F writes cheques of up to EUR 600k, acts as lead investor, and brings an active follow-on policy—backed by a team of entrepreneurs, investors, and operators who provide hands-on support and connections to their portfolio companies. Nina will also pull back the curtain on how VCs actually think and what they look for. She previously founded the Female Founders Community with 83.000 members all over Europe and is a leading figure in Austria’s VC Scene. #### 💡 What you will learn * What **VC funds in general and Fund F** in particular **looks for in early-stage startups** and how to get on their radar * Why **gender-diverse teams outperform** all-male teams * **Concrete steps** you can take today to **strengthen your fundraising position** This event is brought to you by **SIBB Incubator**, who supports founders building the future of cybersecurity, trustworthy AI, and deep tech. #### 🧑🏻‍🏫 Speaker **Nina Wöss - *Managing Partner, Fund F*** * **Founder** and **Managing Partner** of **Fund F**, Austria's first VC fund specifically for female and gender-diverse founding teams * **Co-founder** of **Female Founders Global** (since 2016), one of Europe's largest communities for female entrepreneurs * **Former Principal** at **Speedinvest** * **Former COO** at **AVCO** (Austrian Private Equity & Venture Capital Organisation) * MSc in **Strategic Management**, WU Vienna * **Active in the startup ecosystem** since 2012 ***Moderated by: Etta Dannemann in her role as head coach.*** Etta Dannemann moderates the event in her role as Startup Coach at the SIBB Incubator.

Join us for 4 beautiful days of celebrating who you are in abundance and joy in sisterhood. In this tantric retreat we will come together with other women and side by side, go through a profound process of healing, releasing blockages, traumas and limiting beliefs so that each one can expand and redefine their relationship with the body, with their self-esteem and discover a deeper access to their own power, which has been numbed to women through history and patriarchy. We will together create a safe space to release and then raise our energy and circulate it through the body (and with that through the chakras and different areas of our lives) with the help of different tantric techniques including breath, sound, movement, touch, pleasure, community, sharing and listening. It will be an intimate occasion to make us feel connected with our deeper truth, each other and with the flow of life itself. For our life energy to flow freely through our bodies and our lives, we need to finally feel home in our bodies and reclaim its power. In this tantra retreat you will learn different tools to: * listen to your body wisdom and feel at home in it * increase your ability for self-love, self-respect and self-pleasure * feel more attuned with your feelings, desires, boundaries, needs and learn to communicate that; * process and let go of old pain, conditionings and blockages * bring your vital energy to flow to feel alive and inspired * find your path to feel safe and at ease in your body, inviting more pleasure in * connect to your inner wisdom and intuition * unlock your innate erotic and creative power * built intimacy with yourself and others **Please note, this Retreat takes place close to Berlin and is payed.

Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you were quoted in *Truth in Comedy*, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**! The idea behind improvised comedy is to create entire scenes from scratch. A suggestion is taken from the audience and laughter is built on the spot. This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway, Make Some Noise,* or *Wild 'n Out*; it can also be done in a longer way, to tell a complicated story, like *TJ & Dave*. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and FREE!) weekly comedy event, brings the games for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Afterward, many members will hang out in *Gresso's* itself and get to know each other. Not only is this a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, your public speaking, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and build relationships that will last a lifetime, and you do that while laughing your butt off! Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "*Yes, And*" that you'll have a blast!

Columbus Code & Coffee is an inclusive, informal co-working session. People of all skill levels attend, and we love it that way. Many people (optionally) bring projects to work on, and many other people (optionally) socialize the entire time. It's entirely up to you! **What to Expect at the Intro Circle** \~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~ Near the beginning of the event (1:30 pm), we do a standup: * Organizer announcements, updates, and logistics Round 1 - (7 secs max): * Your name * What you're working on * What you can help others with Round 2: * Community events you wanna plug. If none, that's cool too. Round 3: * Job opportunities you're hiring for OR announce that you are looking for one. If none, that's cool. After the introduction circle, everything is self-organized! Feel free to work alone, pair up, attend one of our workshops/presentations, or mingle!

Evolve exists to provide a welcoming place for professional women to create an authentic community, deeper connections, and confident growth through networking and workshop events. No cliques, no judgement. **Shades of Sisterhood** is a space for women to grow from the inside out through meaningful conversations, personal development, mindset growth, and courageous self-awareness. These gatherings are designed to create deeper connection, expand perspective, and encourage women to become healthier, stronger, and more aligned versions of themselves — both personally and professionally. Through honest dialogue, shared experiences, and intentional conversations around identity, leadership, confidence, relationships, emotional resilience, and growth, women are invited into a supportive environment where they can learn, reflect, heal, and evolve together. This is not about perfection, hustle culture, or surface-level positivity. It is about creating a safe space for women to have real conversations, challenge limiting beliefs, grow in self-awareness, and step more confidently into who they were created to become. At its core, Shades of Sisterhood exists to remind women that growth starts within — and no woman has to navigate that journey alone. Guests are always welcome. We'd love to meet you! **[Click here to join the call!](https://zoom.us/j/7894682064)** \*\*Evolve Women's Network is a membership based networking group.
