Vibe Coding Finland: June meetup with Elisa

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
