Confronto concreto tra aziende, esperti e partner tecnologici sull'AI nei processi aziendali. Gratuito, su invito. 20 aprile, Museo Ferrari.
Belgrade, 🇷🇸 Serbia
2026 has been widely called the year of AI agents, and this workshop will help you understand why.
Join us for a hands-on technical workshop where we will explore how modern AI agents work and how to build them from scratch using today’s most powerful tools.
❗Important
This workshop is intended primarily for students and will be conducted in Serbian.
We especially encourage 3rd and 4th year students, as well as Master's students from engineering majors, to apply.
During the session, you will learn the core building blocks of AI agents such as reasoning, tools, and memory. We will also explore different agent architectures and practical use cases for agentic systems.
The workshop culminates in a hands-on implementation where you will build a technical documentation agent that uses:
• MongoDB as the agent’s memory and knowledge store
• Claude 3.5 Sonnet / Gemini 2.0 / GPT-4o as the agent’s reasoning engine
• LangGraph to orchestrate the agent’s workflow
No local setup is required — everything will run in a cloud environment and can be accessed directly from your browser.
You will be provided with a GitHub repository containing Jupyter Notebook templates, and during the workshop you will replace pseudocode with working implementations.
By the end of the workshop, you will have built your own AI agent capable of answering documentation questions using MongoDB-powered memory.

Utrecht, 🇳🇱 Netherlands
We are excited to announce our next Utrecht JUG meetup on April 20, 2026, hosted at the Kamer van Koophandel. Join us for an evening focused on the future of software development, where AI-driven, agentic systems are becoming an integral part of how we build and operate applications.
In the first session, Soham Dasgupta will demonstrate how AI agents can power autonomous DevSecOps pipelines; from detecting vulnerabilities to generating fixes and validating them through CI. This hands-on talk offers a practical look at building self-driving security workflows with tools like GitHub Copilot.
After the break Raphael de Lio explores how memory works in both humans and AI agents. By connecting insights from cognitive science to real-world engineering challenges, this session sheds light on how to design more reliable and context-aware AI systems.
Join us for an evening of practical insight, new ideas, and great conversations.
Please join us and RSVP!
Because of the limited number of seats, please keep your RSVP up-to-date, so we can welcome someone else if you can't make it.

20:15 The Anatomy of Memory in Humans and AI Agents by Raphael de Lio
21:15 Drinks
1 JetBrains licence
What if your security pipeline could find vulnerabilities, file issues, write fixes, run CI, and request human approval — all autonomously? In this hands-on session, we start with a polyglot microservices repo that has zero security tooling and progressively build a fully autonomous agentic DevSecOps pipeline using GitHub Copilot.
You'll see how AI agents perform repo-wide security assessments, how custom instructions shape agent behavior across the SDLC, and how agentic workflows chain dependency scanning, SAST, and test coverage checks into a self-driving loop: scan → auto-create issues → Coding Agent fixes → CI validates → AI code review → human approves. We'll also build custom Copilot agents for IaC security scanning and use GitHub's agentic workflow capabilities to generate recurring security reports — no human trigger required. Walk away with a working, repeatable pattern for embedding autonomous AI agents and agentic workflows into every stage of your DevSecOps lifecycle.
Artificial intelligence does not need to copy the human brain to advance, yet cognitive science still offers useful guidance. As agentic applications grow, understanding how humans store and retrieve information can help us design agents that act with greater context and reliability.
This talk connects human memory to the practical challenges of building AI agents with memory. We will review the main types of memory in the brain, revisit a landmark case in neuroscience, and relate these ideas to how large language models process information. We will also look at the real difficulties of taking agents to production, where choosing what to store and how to retrieve it becomes the core challenge.
Participants will learn:
- How insights from cognitive science can guide agent design
- The key forms of human memory and their relevance to AI
- What neuroscience reveals about the limits of large language models
- The main obstacles of deploying agents with memory in real systems
- How our work at Redis led to an open-source, production-ready agent memory server
- Practical ways to improve memory in AI agents
This session offers both conceptual clarity and concrete tools for building more capable agentic systems.
Soham is a technology enthusiast working at Microsoft as a Solution Architect, with over 19 years of experience in software programming, designing, and architecture which includes on-prem, cloud-native applications, and web-based conversational application design.
Raphael De Lio is an AI and Software Engineer at Redis with over eight years of experience spanning multiple industries and countries. He is passionate about distributed systems and specializes in Java, Kotlin, and building scalable, high-performance software with a growing focus on reliable, distributed agentic systems.
What drives him is bridging the gap between software engineering and AI engineering, bringing the hard-won knowledge of building distributed, scalable systems into the world of AI where those foundations are often missing but matter most.
Originally from Brazil, Raphael spent six years in Portugal before making the Netherlands his home, where he also helps organize the Dutch Kotlin User Group. He loves blending code, community, and creativity to help developers build better systems faster, and with a lot more fun along the way.
Bern, 🇨🇭 Switzerland
Abstract
AI systems are moving beyond prompts to agents that plan, act and interact. And this time, Java is not catching up, it’s leading. Frameworks like LangChain4j and Embabel bring agentic capabilities with the strengths Java is built on: type safety, structure, reliability and testability.
Agents aren’t a passing hype. They are a necessary design pattern for robust AI systems, enforcing separation of concerns, controlled execution flows and human-in-the-loop checkpoints. They make complex AI interactions predictable, auditable and production ready.
This talk shows how the Java ecosystem is turning agentic design into a disciplined engineering approach, and how you can start replacing suitable parts of your processes using agents in a practical, production-ready way.
The talk will be held in English!

Turin, 🇮🇹 Italy
What does it take to build an AI agent from scratch in Go — no frameworks, no magic?
In this talk we'll find out, taking inspiration from two real systems: Claude Code and OpenClaw. We'll break the problem into two halves.
The first is the agent core: context management (keeping conversations coherent when the context window is finite), tools (exposing Go functions as callable actions), skills (a Markdown-based plugin system with lazy loading), and subagents (delegating work to isolated agent sessions).
The second is the long-running agent: how to turn an agent into a daemon, add a heartbeat for proactive wake-ups, and schedule autonomous work with cron.
The second half of the talk is a live demo on a real running agent, showing all of these pieces working together.
You'll leave with a clear mental model of how agents work under the hood and concrete Go patterns you can use right away.

Eindhoven, 🇳🇱 Netherlands
Most conversations about AI in software development focus on coding. This evening is not about that.
ICT Improve invites you to join our next ICT Knowledge Hub: an interactive evening with the theme: “AI as a thinking partner in software development”. The most popular application of LLMs in tech is to have it generate code… But what if - rather than using it to build the solution - we use LLMs to explore and map the problem space?
What if we think of AI as:
During this session, we want to explore the intriguing and promising subject of LLMs as a conversational partner.
How can LLMs help the teams shape requirements, explore behavior and clarify domain knowledge?
This meeting is a mini-unconference, meaning no keynote, no fixed program. Instead, we collaboratively shape the evening: everyone is given the opportunity to pitch their question, idea or lesson learned in one minute, with the only constraint being that it has to fit our theme. We then collectively decide which subject(s) we want to dive into.
The goal is to provide an open, low pressure environment where we can explore ideas, connect, inspire and learn from each other. Pitching is highly encouraged, but optional. Want to maximize the chance of your pitch grabbing the attention it deserves? Share your idea with Johan van Berkel (johan.van.berkel@ict.nl).
17.00 - 18.00 - Walk-in and light dinner
18.00 - 20.30 - Unconference
20.30 - 21.00 - Networking and drinks
When you want to join this evening, please also sign-up here, so we can reserve a meal and parking spot for you and have a name tag ready. Thank you!
ICT Knowledge Hub is the collective name for a series of interactive theme evenings where we dive into the depths of modern system development together. From Living Documentation to testing, from requirements to Domain-Driven Design: each event offers inspiration, practical experiences and directly applicable tools.
The evenings are meant for professionals who want to learn, reflect and connect, whether you are a developer, analyst, tester, product owner or researcher. Together, we build a community of like-minded people who are curious about better collaboration, smarter approaches and sustainable solutions.
We invite speakers from the field as well as from academia, and offer space to anyone with something valuable to share.
Come and listen, join the discussion, and learn together from each other's practice and perspective.

Bucharest, 🇷🇴 Romania
Glucose, longevity, AI, 3D-printable super-human genes — all in one evening.
Continuous glucose monitoring is becoming interesting far beyond diabetes, especially for people thinking about metabolic health and longevity. That broader interest is also what led to Sugar-Sugar — an ongoing open-source study that anyone can participate in, focused on glucose prediction and how human intuition compares with machine-learning models.
Alongside that, we’ll also show Materialized Enhancements — an open-source project about striking biological abilities found in nature, using parametric art to turn genes and enhancement ideas into something visual, tangible, and easier to discuss.
Both projects were founded by Livia Zaharia and Anton Kulaga, and we’ll use the meetup to share them, show examples, and open the floor for discussion.
Livia Zaharia will present Sugar-Sugar, a research project on human vs AI glucose prediction. She also trains machine-learning models for glucose prediction, so this topic connects both the practical and technical side: what CGM data can tell us about metabolic health, why glucose prediction matters, and how human intuition compares with models.
We’ll also present Materialized Enhancements, a project exploring striking biological abilities already found in nature — extreme longevity, radiation resistance, hypoxia tolerance, cancer resistance, cold adaptation, and unusual sensing or oxygen-storage traits.
It uses parametric / generative art to turn selected gene sets into printable forms — a blend of science, design, and science communication.
The website is already capable of generating printable models, and we’ll bring some of the first printed objects to the meetup. You can already generate your own model here: materialized-enhancements.longevity-genie.info — even before or during the meetup.
Repo: github.com/longevity-genie/materialized-enchancements
People interested in longevity, transhumanism, biosignals, genetics, generative art, future biotech, and diabetes / CGM topics — including curious non-experts and people with diabetes.
We chose Healthy Bytes as the venue because it’s a unique café focused on low-sugar / keto food — a fitting place for a conversation about glucose, metabolic health, and longevity.

How TrackPaw use AI to ship good stuff faster
(Carl Johan Wetterqvist)
I have been experimenting with incorporating AI in my deliveries since before ChatGPT was a thing — this is how we at TrackPaw use AI to help us ship good stuff fast today.
From Autopilot to Co-Pilot: Using Agent-Based Workflows to Transform AI-Assisted Software Development
(Oliwer Helsén)
AI coding assistants are powerful, but left unchecked they tend to produce generic, context-free output. What if, instead of letting the AI do the thinking for you, you structured the collaboration using specialized agent personas and agile workflows that guide both human and AI through the entire software development lifecycle? This talk explores an open-source framework that does exactly that — introducing domain-expert agents such as Product Managers, Architects, UX Designers, and Scrum Masters as AI-driven collaborators, each with structured workflows grounded in agile best practices. The framework adapts its planning depth based on project complexity, supports everything from quick bug fixes to full enterprise product planning, and even allows multiple agent perspectives to converge in a single session. We'll walk through the two main development paths — a lightweight flow for small, well-scoped tasks and a full planning path for complex products — and share practical lessons learned from applying agent-driven AI development in real-world SaaS projects.

📣🇩🇪 Das Ende der Code-Ära: Warum Domain Modeling & Harness Engineering die wichtigsten Skills 2026 sind (Benjamin Font Pera)
Die Ära, in der Softwareentwicklung primär durch das Beherrschen von Programmiersprachen und Frameworks definiert wurde, ist vorbei. Wer 2026 noch versucht, über reine Syntax-Kenntnisse Wertschöpfung zu generieren, hat gegen agentische KI-Systeme bereits verloren. Die eigentliche Herausforderung hat sich nach links verschoben: in die präzise Definition von Problemen und die Konstruktion von Leitplanken.
In diesem Talk räume ich mit dem Mythos auf, dass KI uns das Denken abnimmt. Im Gegenteil: Die Verantwortung steigt. Ich stelle das Konzept des Harness Engineering vor – die Kunst, fachliche Anforderungen so in Test- und Evaluationsgerüste zu gießen, dass KI-Systeme darin verlässlich operieren können.
Als Agentic Coding Engineer und AI Coach zeige ich auf, warum Fachlichkeit zur wichtigsten technischen Fähigkeit wird. Wenn die KI Code generiert oder "halluziniert", ist das tiefe Verständnis der Domäne das einzige verlässliche Werkzeug zur Qualitätssicherung.
Die Kernbotschaften:
Dieser Vortrag ist ein Weckruf für alle, die Softwareentwicklung noch als Handwerk am Code verstehen – und ein Leitfaden für diejenigen, die bereit sind, die nächste Ebene der Abstraktion zu besetzen.
📣🇬🇧 Documentation with OpenCode (Gautam Ghosh)
The process of software development consists of several tasks which are considered to be mundane and tedious, documenting code is one such task. Nevertheless, documentation is a crucial part of any software product and it requires frequent updates to ensure maintainability and long-term sustainability of software systems. Naturally, software developers would need to spend precious hours and typically developers would prefer to use a tool to accelerate the process and focus on creative tasks.
In this talk, we explore the use of OpenCode - An open source agentic AI terminal. We particularly focus on the fundamental understanding of this AI and check if it is a reliable tool for software developers.

Sint-Niklaas, 🇧🇪 Belgium
Wir sind schlecht darin, exponentiell zu denken. Alle.
Die KI-Kurve läuft steil. Unsere Intuition läuft linear. Das ist eine gefährliche Lücke — und die meisten merken es nicht mal.
Wenn wir über KI reden, landen wir immer wieder am gleichen Ort: entweder große Angst oder blumige Chancen. Entweder Untergang oder Wunderland. Dieses Entweder-oder greift zu kurz.
Was, wenn wir das anders angehen?
Marc Bless (Bless AI) kommt mit einem Set radikaler Thesen. Zum Beispiel: „Menschliche Softwareentwicklung — also das Kodieren — wird es nicht mehr geben." Provokativ, absichtlich unbequem — und genau darauf ausgelegt, den Entweder-oder-Reflex zu triggern.
Thomas Krause bringt strukturierte Denkwerkzeuge: KI-gestützte Methoden, die uns zwingen, wirklich multiperspektivisch zu denken — nicht bauchgefühlbasiert, nicht binär.
Zusammen nehmen wir Marcs Thesen auseinander. Methodisch. Schonungslos.
Format: Kein Vortrag. Gemeinsames Denken unter echtem Druck.
Für wen: Alle, die KI-Zukunft ernst nehmen — und sich nicht mit einfachen Antworten zufriedengeben.
Innsbruck, 🇦🇹 Austria
AI Austria is back in Innsbruck for the 3rd edition of our local community meetup series! This time we are co-organising with the AI:AT AI Factory Austria at the University of Innsbruck.
This meetup is part of our growing AI community in Tyrol, with a clear technical focus. We go beyond high-level overviews and look into how models, systems, and real projects actually work.
The main goal is to learn from each other and to connect industry and academia. Expect technical talks, practical insights, and space for real discussions with people who actively build and research AI.
This event is fully in English, so internationals are very welcome :)
Agenda
🕡 6:00 - 06:30 pm // Open Doors, Arrival
🕡 6:30 pm // Start of Event, Welcome
🕡 6:45 pm // 🎙 Lukas Huber, roosi GmbH - From Shadow AI to Sovereign AI: Building Independent AI Infrastructure
Everyone's using ChatGPT, Copilot, and Perplexity – but who actually controls where the data goes? In this talk, Lukas Huber breaks down what it takes to build your own independent AI infrastructure: from model routing and observability to authentication, RBAC, and compliance – and why it matters whether you're building for a company, a university, or a side project. He'll walk through a real hands-on project: setting up an open-source AI stack (OpenWebUI + LiteLLM + Langfuse) in 2 days – what worked, what broke, and why that's only 10% of the actual work. You'll learn about the architectural decisions, the governance layer most setups are missing, and how to go from a weekend prototype to something production-ready and GDPR-compliant. No slides full of buzzwords. Just real code, real problems, and real solutions.
🕡 7:30 pm // 🎙 Nadja Gruber, LFU - AI in Medical Imaging: From Newborn Brain Scans to CT Image Reconstruction
Artificial intelligence offers enormous potential in medical image analysis, enabling more precise and efficient interpretation of complex imaging data. In the medical care of premature babies, AI-based methods, particularly deep learning, can support early detection and diagnosis of health risks. Examples include the identification of biomarkers for neurological development through MRI analysis in preterm infants, as well as the development of AI algorithms for accelerated CT image acquisition, enabling faster scans with reduced radiation exposure while improving image quality and supporting safer, more efficient clinical workflows.
The talk will provide an overview of how these AI methods are developed and applied in practice, including key model architectures, data requirements, and validation strategies. It will further illustrate these concepts through concrete case studies in neonatal MRI analysis and AI-driven CT reconstruction, highlighting both current capabilities and remaining challenges.
🕡 8:15 pm // Community Events - What's happening in Innsbruck? A short overview of interesting events happening by the community for the community.

19:00: AI Tools for AI Skeptics
by Enzo Conty (Google Developer Expert from France 🇫🇷)
You’re not convinced AI will replace developers, me neither. But there are still tools that are genuinely useful today, that is if you use them carefully. In this session I will present usecases and tools that can be useful for all mobile developers without falling into the AI slop.
19:40: 🍕 Food, Drinks and Socializing Break

Le "vibe coding" — coder en langage naturel et laisser l’IA générer le code — est-il un buzz passager ou une vraie évolution pour les développeurs ?
Après 6 mois d’utilisation intensive de Claude Code au quotidien, cette conférence propose un retour d’expérience concret. Nous explorerons les "8 Levels of Agentic Engineering" (Bassim Eledath), un framework qui va du simple auto-complete jusqu’aux équipes d’agents autonomes, en passant par le context engineering et les feedback loops automatisés.
À travers des cas pratiques — maintenance de code legacy, refactoring à grande échelle, développement de nouvelles fonctionnalités, validation et tests — on verra ce qui fonctionne réellement, ce qui ne fonctionne pas encore, et où se situent les vrais gains de productivité.
On abordera aussi les défis humains : comment faciliter l’adoption dans les équipes, faire évoluer les pratiques de code review, et gérer la confiance envers le code généré. Une session pour prendre du recul et comprendre concrètement comment l’IA agentique transforme déjà le métier des développeurs.

Important:
An in-person series of meetups focused on helping product & engineering teams in Copenhagen bridge the gap between UX, Product, Design, and Dev, and to build better products faster, together.
Agenda:
18:30 - 19:00 Opening and registration
19:00 - 19:15 Welcome from the UXDX Ambassadors and Manychat
19:15 - 19:45 Talk 1: Glòria Langereo, Senior Design Director at GitHub
19:45 - 20:15 Talk 2: Greg Kozakiewicz, Director of Design at Oracle
20:15 - 20:45 Closing and networking
Talk by Glòria Langreo - What Breaks When AI Hits Real Product Workflows
A talk focused on the things that do not work smoothly in practice yet, like undocumented internal APIs, weak documentation, messy systems, and the gap between AI hype and what teams can actually use day to day.
Talk by Greg Kozakiewicz - Fast is Easy. Coherent is Hard.
Ai is making it faster and cheaper to build than ever before but speed without coherence is how products fall apart. This talk explores what actually changes for designers and design leaders when Ai enters the workflow at scale: not the tools, but the judgment, the responsibility, and the systems needed to keep products from fragmenting under velocity pressure. Using design systems as a concrete anchor, the talk makes the case that the designer's role isn't shrinking, it's shifting upstream, toward the decisions that Ai can't make on its own. Practical, honest, and beyond the hype.
UXDX helps teams shift from project based delivery to empowered, autonomous product teams. We host global conferences and over 150 free community events each year, bringing together UX, Product, Design and Development practitioners to share how real teams build better products faster.
