Applying AI Events in Zurich
"AI research" and "AI in production" are two pretty different worlds at this point. This page collects events from the production side: how teams integrate LLMs into real products, build agents that are worth trusting, wire up RAG pipelines that don't quietly hallucinate, and ship Copilot-style features without breaking the rest of the app. Agentic coding is a particularly active thread right now, with dedicated meetups and studios popping up across the continent.
This page narrows the Zurich calendar to Applying AI events. It's a subset of Switzerland's wider tech-event schedule, useful when you want something specific to go to in the city this month.
Zurich sustains one of the most research-dense tech-event calendars in Europe, anchored by ETH Zurich and the broader Swiss research ecosystem. ML-research, systems, and programming-languages communities are particularly strong. This is one of the places in Europe where compiler, distributed-systems, and cryptography research still has a community event presence in the form of guild nights, reading groups, and visiting-speaker series.

AI:Thorough Research & Confidence
Zurich, đ¨đ Switzerland
All ages, professions, and students welcome. Most of us have heard AI can change how we work, but few of us outside tech actually know how to use it well: ethically, sustainably, and securely. This group is for anyone outside the tech world who wants to build real, practical AI skills, the kind that save time and sharpen your thinking from day one.
You'll see how AI can:
- Help you research without getting confidently wrong answers
We'll also map out everything else AI can do for your daily work, from drafting hard emails and summarizing long documents to breaking down big goals and preparing for tough conversations.
No tech background needed.
Bring a real task or decision you're working on, and you'll leave with something you can use immediately. Donations welcome, this is for covering the 50 CHF cost of hosting and booking the space and room for this workshop.

Tech Leadership Circle: Leading Teams through AI Transformation
Zurich, đ¨đ Switzerland
The hardest part of AI transformation isn't the technology. It's the humans. Join other tech leaders for an honest reckoning.
Everyone's talking tools, timelines, ROI. Almost no one is talking about what it actually feels like to lead a team through AI-driven change. The fear underneath "just implement it." The resistance you can't quite name. The quiet sense that the deal between employer and employee is being rewritten â while everyone pretends it's business as usual.
This Tech Leadership Circle is for leaders looking to bridge that gap.
We're bringing tech leaders together to look honestly at how AI is reshaping organisations from the inside â workflows, roles, culture, trust.
Three senior tech leaders join our panel to share what's worked, and what hasn't, as they've navigated their own teams through AI-driven change:
- Marco-Andrea Buchmann, Head of Applied Science at Zalando
- Dr. Maria Fay, Business AI Strategy Lead Switzerland at SAP
- Irina Wolf, Team Lead Hardware at Wingtra
There will be a chance to bring your questions to the panel and have them answered by the experts. Come curious and leave with new insights.
Agenda17:45 - Doors open
18:00 - Intro and welcome by Hello 50:50 World
18:05 - Panel discussion and Q&A
18:50 - Conclusions and final remarks

Debugging the Human Layer & Guerilla InnerSource in the AI Hype
Zurich, đ¨đ Switzerland
Two complementary perspectives on engineering culture and the way we work together. Two experienced speakers and plenty of networking opportunity. We are very much looking forward to the next DevOps Meetup Zurich.
Here's what's planned for the evening:
17:30 - 18:00 - Arrival and first drinks
18:00 - 18:45 - Debugging the Human Layer: Applying Systems Thinking to Team Dynamics by Ashwin Krishnan
18:45 - 19:30 - Guerilla InnerSource in Enterprises, During the AI Hype by Oleg Nenashev
19:30 - 20:30 - Networking, Open Space & More drinks*
Debugging the Human Layer: Applying Systems Thinking to Team Dynamics
In DevOps, we obsess over the "Three Ways": Flow, Feedback, and Continuous Learning. We build robust CI/CD pipelines and automated testing to eliminate technical friction, yet we often ignore the most volatile component in our architecture: the humans.
This session explores how personality and team dynamics assessments function as "telemetry" for your human systems. By understanding the underlying "code" of our team membersâtheir communication protocols, stress-response thresholds, and cognitive biasesâwe can move from accidental collaboration to intentional high-performance.
I will present a few personality assessments I have used personally, as well as with my teams (no brand endorsements), that the audience can consider to use to get a better understanding of themselves.
Ashwin Krishnan
Innovator, Board Advisor, Change Catalyst
Ashwin Krishnan is a highly accomplished CxO & Board Advisor with over 23 years of experience driving large-scale digital transformation and delivering significant business impact.

He possesses a multi-cultural, multilingual, and multi-domain skill set, having advised CxOs in financial services, telecom, and manufacturing across Europe, the US, and APAC. His entrepreneurial leadership is demonstrated through his founding of wealthQUAY, a cloud-based Wealth Management-as-a-Service venture within Cognizant, as well as heading Disruptive Innovation at Orange Business. He holds an embaX from ETH ZĂźrich & HSG St. Gallen and a B.E. in Computer Engineering.
Guerilla InnerSource in Enterprises, During the AI Hype
Many developers want to foster collaboration, knowledge sharing, and developer productivity, especially when those developers are their own colleagues. But do their companies really care? Despite the endless DevOps and developer productivity slidedecks, not everyone has a strategy beyond "let's form another task force" or "let's have another weekly meeting" from management. Can a single engineer actually introduce InnerSource and change how work gets done in a big enterprise? Maybe! Can they burn out in the process? Well, let's talk.
We'll discuss introducing an open collaboration culture, also known as InnerSource, inside rigid corporate structures that are not willing to change. The ongoing AI hype can be a great leverage, an excuse to form internal guilds, secure funding, and get executive attention for collaboration and productivity initiatives. How to get started without a budget or official blessing from higher ups? How to find allies and not burn too many bridges? And how to show impact when everyone is obsessed with KPIs?
