Tech Events in Graz

📚🌳 Join Us for our 3rd annual "Reading in the Park" - May 9th! 🌳📚

We're excited to invite everyone to our May event, Reading in the Park, hosted by the Women* + Tech Meetup Group!

🗓️ Date: Saturday, May 9th
⏰ Time: 11:00 AM
📍 Location: Sitting Woman Statue, Graz Stadtpark

Bring your current (or favorite) book - it can but doesn’t need to be tech-related. You can also bring a blanket and a drink to stay hydrated on this relaxing late morning of reading and discussing books with other women* in tech.

As there are several other events going on in Graz that day, perhaps you want to continue the networking at Veganmania or the Kunst und Design market afterwards!

Whether you're a tech enthusiast or simply a book lover, we look forward to spending time together! 📖💬

See you there! ✨

I am very happy to announce, the first special event in a workshop format!

TL,DR; One of the benefits of message-based architectures is the ability to divide the work across different responsible parties that can work independently. We will experience this during the workshop on our meetup

For this special event we will be joined by Marijn Huizendveld, a Domain-Driven Design veteran with 15 years of experience in building message-based architectures.
In the workshop guided by Marijn we will model and implement a design for a car-sharing business using messages in the form of `commands`, `events`, `questions`, and `answers`.
Expect a combination of event storming and example mapping to dive into the details.

After jointly agreeing on schema details for the messages, that will be exchanged by different parts of the system, subteams will work on solving a small isolated problem.
During the workshop we will iterate and push our solutions into the cloud, and see how our design can come together thanks to the agreed upon schema design.
During the workshop can work in Kotlin, Java or whichever JVM language you prefer 🤓

Join this coding workshop to experience the power of message-based architectures first hand.

Many thanks to wirecube / shopreme for graciously hosting us again! 🙏🏼

A little background info:
Marijn is passing by on his trip to Weblica where he will be giving his talk "Going by the book and Failing". Learn how he has helped a large Dutch energy company to adopt Domain-Driven Design in a 12 minute long documentary.

GenAI Community: Autonomous Agents Edition - Graz
Acuity Analytics, Graz | May 20, 2026 | 5:30 PM

The era of simple chatbots is evolving into the age of agentic systems: AI that doesn’t just talk, but plans and executes complex tasks autonomously. But how do we bridge the gap from experimental scripts to robust production environments?

Join AI Austria and Acuity Analytics for an evening dedicated to the architecture, challenges, and future of Autonomous Agents. We’re bringing together Graz’s top builders and researchers to share what’s actually happening under the hood.

• When: May 20, 2026 | Starting at 5:30 PM
• Where: Acuity Analytics Office, Graz
• Host & Moderation: Anna Poledna (AI Austria)

Expect deep technical insights, honest lessons from the field, and lively discussions. We will explore how agentic architectures are evolving and what technical hurdles teams are currently facing.

We are thrilled to welcome a high-caliber lineup from the AI Austria network and Acuity Analytics. Expect deep insights from:

• Blackshark.ai
• TU Graz
• Acuity Analytics
• ... and more to be announced soon!

• 5:30 PM – Doors Open & Welcome
• 5:40 PM – Kick-off: Impulse Talks & Keynotes
• 7:00 PM – Networking, Drinks & Conversations

Admission: Free for the community, but seats are limited. Grab yours now!

Sechs erfahrene Expert:innen aus der Praxis liefern Use Cases, Strategien und Werkzeuge, die du am nächsten Tag im Unternehmen einsetzen kannst.
