Geometrie, Tragwerk & Ressourcen | Peter Bauer (ITI, TU Wien, werkraum)

Vienna, 🇦🇹 Austria

Emerging Materials and Technology: Geometrie, Tragwerk und Ressourcen

Lecture by Peter Bauer

Geometrie, Tragwerk und Ressourcen

In the frame of the Module Emerging Fields in Architecture (++), HB2, TU Wien

Die Notwendigkeit Ressourceneffizient und Wiederverwend- bzw. Recyclebar zu konstruieren und zu bauen, bedeutet auch werkstoffgerecht zu konstruieren und zu bauen.

Die Abteilung ITI beschäftigt sich intensiv mit diesbezüglichen Forschungsfragen. Wissen um die Eigenschaften der Werkstoffe und ein vertieftes Verständnis der Geometrie ist Vorrausetzung effiziente Tragstrukturen zu entwickeln.

Der Vortrag Geometrie, Tragwerk und Ressourcen stellt neue Forschungsergebnisse auf diesem Gebiet vor.

++

Das Modul Emerging Fields in Architecture vermittelt aktuelles Wissen aus neuen Forschungsfeldern in architektur- und ingenieurswissenschaftlichen Disziplinen, mit dem Ziel aktuelle und zukünftige Entwurfsherausforderungen im breiteren gesellschaftlichen Kontext fachübergreifend und grundlegend zu bearbeiten. Die Vorlesungen vermitteln Kenntnisse über unterschiedliche und fachübergreifende Zugänge zur Entwurfsfindung, aktuelle Entwicklungen und Resultate der Material- und Bauweisenforschung, über das Planen und Bauen unter/in extremen Bedingungen sowie über Strukturen die sich aufgrund von wechselnden Parametern verändern bzw. entwickeln.

In diesem Zusammenhang werden Strategien zur Entwurfsfindung (von der ersten Idee bis zur Umsetzung) im interdisziplinären Diskurs hinterfragt, und der Frage nachgegangen wie sich der Weg von der Idee zur Realisierung gestalten kann und inwieweit es möglich ist systematisch kreativ zu sein.

Build & Connect Meetup mit Expertentalk

Vienna, 🇦🇹 Austria

Willkommen bei "Build & Connect" – dem Treffpunkt für Unternehmer:innen, die raus aus dem operativen Hustle wollen. Organisiert von Gründerio.

English description below.

Dieses kostenfreie Event richtet sich vor allem an Unternehmer:innen und Selbstständige, die bereits ihr eigenes Business aufgebaut haben und den nächsten Schritt gehen wollen – vom Operator zum strategischen Owner. Natürlich bist du auch herzlich willkommen, wenn du dich noch in der Planungsphase deiner Selbstständigkeit befindest.

Das erwartet dich bei unserem Meetup:

🌟 Expertentalk
Bau’s selbst – oder lass es?
Eigene Software-Tools zu bauen war nie so einfach. Genau das ist das Problem.
Mit KI baust du an einem Wochenende, wofür du vor drei Jahren ein Entwicklerteam gebraucht hättest. Die eigentliche Frage ist: Zahlt es sich aus?
Das hängt davon ab, was du baust. Ein Tool für dich selbst lohnt sich, wenn es dir mehr Zeit spart, als Bau und Wartung kosten, und die Wartung nicht wieder an dir hängen bleibt. Ein Produkt, das du verkaufen willst, folgt anderen Regeln. Da ist das Bauen der leichteste Teil. Schwer wird es danach: Kund:innen finden, Support leisten, Updates liefern.

Joe Wilhelm baut seit Jahren Software mit KI und bringt anderen bei, das selbst zu tun. Er zeigt, was heute wirklich geht und was nach dem Bauen kommt.
Alexander Porsch verantwortet seit über zehn Jahren Produkte, als Berater und aktuell als Director Product in einem Corporate-Venture-Startup. Als zertifizierter KI-Manager stellt er die kritischen Fragen: Zahlt sich ein eigenes Produkt aus – oder nicht?

🤝 Austausch auf Augenhöhe: In einer entspannten Atmosphäre kannst du dich mit Gleichgesinnten vernetzen, Ideen austauschen und von den Erfahrungen anderer profitieren.

🍹 Gechillte Atmosphäre: Uns ist wichtig, dass du dich wohlfühlst und Spaß hast. Wenn sich daraus ein neuer Geschäftskontakt oder eine Zusammenarbeit entwickelt – umso besser!

🚀 Unser Ziel: Wir möchten dir nicht nur die Möglichkeit bieten, neue Leute kennenzulernen und echte Verbindungen zu schaffen, sondern dir auch praktische Impulse an die Hand geben, die dir helfen, dein Business so zu strukturieren, dass es für dich läuft – nicht andersherum.

Wir freuen uns darauf, dich bei unserem nächsten Treffen in Wien willkommen zu heißen. Lass uns zusammen wachsen und den Weg vom Operator zum Owner gestalten.

Welcome to "Build & Connect" – the meetup for entrepreneurs ready to escape the operational hustle. Organized by Gründerio.

This free event is aimed primarily at entrepreneurs and self-employed professionals who already run their own business (or several) and are ready for the next step — from operator to strategic owner. Of course, you're also very welcome if you're still in the planning phase of going self-employed.

Here's what awaits you at our meetup:

🌟 Expert Talk:
Build it yourself – or don’t?
Building your own software tools has never been easier. That’s exactly the problem.
With AI, you can build in a weekend what would have taken a dev team three years ago. The real question is: Is it worth it?
That depends on what you’re building. A tool for yourself pays off if it saves you more hours than it costs to build and maintain, and if the maintenance doesn’t end up back on your plate. A product you want to sell plays by different rules. Building is the easy part. The hard part comes after: finding customers, providing support, shipping updates.

Joe Wilhelm has been building software with AI for years and teaches others to do the same. He shows what’s really possible today and what comes after the build.

Alexander Porsch has been leading products for over a decade, as a consultant and currently as Director Product at a corporate venture startup. As a certified AI manager, he asks the critical questions: Does building your own product pay off – or not?

🤝 Real Connections: In a relaxed atmosphere, you can connect with like-minded people, exchange ideas, and learn from each other's experiences.

🍹 Chill Vibes: It's important to us that you feel comfortable and have fun. And if a new business connection or collaboration comes out of it — even better!

🚀 Our Goal: We don't just want to give you the chance to meet new people and build real connections — we also want to hand you practical insights that help you structure your business so it works for you, not the other way around.

We're looking forward to welcoming you at our next meetup in Vienna. Let's grow together and shape the journey from operator to owner.

Pi Durable & Groma.md - with Mario & Alex

Vienna, 🇦🇹 Austria

Hello everyone!

We're excited to announce the next Vienna AI Engineering Meetup on Tuesday, November 10th! This time we'll be again hosted by Dynatrace at their Vienna office in the ICON Tower next to Hauptbahnhof.

Mario Zechner, the creator of Pi, will kick off the meetup and explain "WTF is Pi durable", the new experimental harness for long-running, crash-proof, multiplayer agents that shipped together with Pi 1.0. Then Alex Gavrilescu, co-organizer of this meetup and creator of Backlog.md, will show how to stay in control of your agents with Groma.md. Finally, Peter Melchart will wrap up with a short talk on device logging for hybrid apps.

Join us to explore the future of AI Engineering together!

-------------------------------
Here are the detailed abstracts:

WTF is Pi durable (Mario Zechner)
Pi the coding agent is built for one human in a terminal: if the process dies, you look at what happened and tell it to continue. But what if you want an agent that lives in Slack for years, talks to many people in parallel, survives the laptop going to sleep or the container being redeployed, and runs on Cloudflare instead of your Mac? That's Pi Durable, the experimental harness Earendil shipped alongside Pi 1.0. Mario will explain in detail WTF it actually is.

In the loop, not in the dark: staying in control in the era of dark software factories (Alex Gavrilescu)
After Backlog.md enabled agents to generate 300,000 lines with limited oversight, Groma.md restores architectural ownership. It maintains a real-time project blueprint as the source of truth, guiding agent-driven implementation while keeping humans focused on meaningful design decisions. A live demonstration will map a large open-source repository into Groma.

Device Logging Like a Pro (Peter Melchart, short talk)
Hybrid apps are complex. Debugging them doesn’t have to be. Discover a better way to see what’s happening on your device.

-------------------------------
About the speakers:

  • Mario Zechner (@badlogicgames) is the creator of Pi, a minimalist, self-modifying AI coding agent now stewarded by the startup Earendil, where he's a stakeholder and team member. Before AI, he built the popular cross-platform Java game framework libGDX and spent years on the animation tool Spine. Refreshingly blunt about the industry, Mario calls permission popups "security theater," warns about "token addiction," and tells engineers to slow down and treat agents as surgical tools. Blog: https://mariozechner.at/
  • Alex Gavrilescu leads backend & web engineering at Funstage GmbH in Vienna, keeping millions of free‑to‑play gamers happily tapping. He still ships code, tinkers with Raspberry Pi Kubernetes clusters for fun, and is passionate about weaving project‑management smarts with practical AI. Most recently he created Backlog.md, Groma.md, became the OpenAI Codex Ambassador in Vienna and joined the org team of this very meetup.
  • Peter Melchart has spent nearly his entire career making games - from the Amiga to PC, consoles, and for the last 20 years, on (mostly smart) phones. Now he is leading the Mobile Development for Social Brands at Funstage.

#E4s - Translating Research Into A Business Model

Vienna, 🇦🇹 Austria

Join this Masterclass and learn how to build a commercially successfull product/service out of your research.

Most researchers excel at discovery but receive little guidance on commercialisation pathways, regulatory navigation, or the creative leaps required to build a company. That is why TU Wien’s i²c incubator has organised the Masterclass “Translating Research into a Business Model”.

Drawing on extensive experience in technology transfer, deep-tech venture building and institutional investing, this session equips participants with practical frameworks for thinking outside the conventional academic box, mapping the essential steps from lab to market, and anticipating the regulatory landscape that shapes spin-offs in AI, biotech, health-tech and related fields.

Key Takeaways

  • How to reframe research results into commercially attractive value propositions and spin-off concepts
  • The critical steps from idea validation and IP strategy through company formation, funding and launch readiness
  • Key European regulations and compliance considerations that founders must address early
  • Practical approaches to governance, capital structure and go-to-market planning for deep-tech ventures

By combining hands-on expertise in technology transfer, entrepreneurship and venture capital, it offers researchers a comprehensive toolkit to bridge the gap between scientific excellence and successful commercialisation.

Is my Helm chart good enough? - Manavjot Singh (WhizUs)
Ever wondered if the third-party Helm chart you are running, or the one you wrote yourself, is good enough? In this talk we go over Helm development patterns, best practices and tools that make our lives easier (or harder, but more compliant). Be careful though, this talk quickly turns into a group project. Starting from a plain YAML manifest, we iterate through improvements, and after every step the audience has to answer the question of the day: is my Helm chart good enough? With this social experiment we will find out where the threshold for a good enough Helm chart lies and what we can still improve from there on out.

Make AI Do Your Work!

Vienna, 🇦🇹 Austria

Bring one annoying task. Leave with AI helping you do it. No experience needed ✌️

You use ChatGPT. But what if AI could actually do part of your work for you?

​Bring one thing that takes too much time. Maybe it's writing emails, doing research, making reports, creating content, organizing information, answering customers, or working with documents.

​No experience needed. No technical background required. You don't need to be a tech person. You don't even need to understand AI.

​This is for any job, any background. Designer, founder, marketer, student, freelancer, manager, researcher, creator, or just someone curious. If a task eats your time, you belong here.

​This is not a lecture. This is a working session in a tiny group (max 4–5 people) where we sit together and build a simple AI system for something you actually do. You show us the task that wastes your time. We find what AI can handle. We build it together. Then you try it yourself.

​You leave knowing how to use and improve your system, something you can use Monday morning. Then you get a free follow-up call to check your progress or fix what broke.

​Bring one problem. Let's make AI solve it.

​What it is

​✅ Small co-working session where you build one AI helper useful for YOUR actual task
✅ Personalized guidance: we adapt to your work, your pace, your goals
✅ Small group (4–5 max) so everyone gets personal instructions
✅ Hands-on with simple, modern AI tools — no coding, no jargon, we set everything up with you
✅ A system you can revisit, improve, and expand in future sessions or on your own
✅ Free 1:1 follow-up hour after the workshop to check progress or debug issues

AI Integration & ApplicationWorkshopFree

Get 5 Hours Back!

Vienna, 🇦🇹 Austria

Turn one repetitive task from your real work into an AI workflow. Small group, hands-on, your tools ✌️

Build an AI Workflow That Saves You Time Every Week!

​What do you do every week that makes you think: "There has to be a better way to do this"?

​Maybe it's emails, research, reports, content, data, meetings, documents, customer questions, or admin. You probably already use AI. But you're still doing most of the work manually. This workshop is about fixing that.

​No AI lecture. No 50-slide presentation. No generic prompt engineering course. Your work. Your tools. Your workflow.

​This is for professionals and founders who want practical results, not another AI course. If repetitive work keeps coming back, you belong here.

​This is not a lecture. This is a working session in a tiny group (max 4–5 people) where we sit down and turn one repetitive task from your real work into an AI-powered workflow. We find the parts AI can handle, design the better workflow, build it, and test whether it actually saves you time.

​You leave with one working system and a clear idea of what to automate next. Then you get a free follow-up call to check your progress or fix what broke.

​Stop doing the same work twice.

​What it is

​✅ Small co-working session where you automate one real task from YOUR actual job
✅ Personalized guidance: we adapt to your tools, your workflow, your goals
✅ Small group (4–5 max) so everyone gets personal instructions
✅ Hands-on with modern AI tools and automation — Claude Code, OpenClaw, and whatever fits your workflow
✅ A before/after you can measure: hours back, every week
✅ Free 1:1 follow-up hour after the workshop to check progress or debug issues
✅ Open to anyone with repetitive work — technical or not

​What it is NOT

​❌ A slide deck you watch while checking your phone
❌ A generic "AI will change everything" pep talk
❌ A prompt engineering course with 50 examples you'll never use
❌ A networking event disguised as learning
❌ One-size-fits-all. If you want that, YouTube is free!
❌ A certificate to put on LinkedIn

​

​****- You leave with:****

  • ​One working AI workflow that doesnt break
  • ​A system built around your actual work
  • ​Hands-on guidance
  • ​Coworking access
  • ​A free 1:1 follow-up after the workshop
  • ​A clear idea of what to automate next

​****- We will be working with tools like:****

  • ​MCPs,
  • ​APIs,
  • ​Agents,
  • ​Claude Code,
  • ​OpenClaw or Hermes,
  • ​Workflows, etc.

​📍 Location: May change due to capacity. You will be informed in advance.

SecurityMeetupFree

OWASP Meetup Klagenfurt #8

Vienna, 🇦🇹 Austria

OWASP Klagenfurt Chapter Meetup – Incident Edition 2026

Real incidents, real lessons – and afterwards we move on together to the Tech Afterwork.

Security incidents are the best teachers, as long as they happen to someone else. 😉

In our November meetup we take a look at some of the most talked-about incidents of the last weeks: what happened, how attackers got in, and what we as developers, admins and security folks can learn from them.
This time we meet in a new place: the HollyHub at Heiligengeistplatz, right at the top of the building.

After the talks we head over together to the DevMeetup Tech Afterwork at magdas, so you can keep the conversation going with the wider Klagenfurt dev community.

Whether you're a developer, security professional, sysadmin, student or just curious about cybersecurity, you are very welcome to join us. As always: free, and no OWASP membership needed.


Details

📅 Date: Thursday, 19 November 2026
🕔 Time: 17:00 – 18:30, then on to the Tech Afterwork at magdas
📍 Location: HollyHub, Heiligengeistplatz 4/27, 9020 Klagenfurt am Wörthersee
🚪 How to find us: go all the way up to the top floor, turn left, then take the door on the right


🎤 Agenda Welcome & Intro 3 Security Incidents (PHP, LiteLLM, CA): What Happened?

Speaker: Andreas Happe + Felix Slama
Three recent incidents, three very different attack surfaces: a programming language ecosystem, an AI gateway library and a certificate authority. We walk through what happened and what you can check in your own stack.

The Hugging Face Incident

Speaker: Felix Slama + Helmut Riegler
AI platforms are becoming part of everyone's supply chain. We look at what happened at Hugging Face and what it means for teams that pull models and datasets from public hubs.

Open Discussion & Networking

…and then we walk over to magdas together for the DevMeetup Tech Afterwork.
