What's on in CZ
Join us for a curated evening of networking, refreshments, and live AI problem-solving, supported by Cognition (the team behind Devin) and hosted by LaunchLoop together with Kaya VC. Refreshments: Drinks and small bites provided. The Vibe: High-energy, collaborative, and strictly zero boring panels. What to Expect We are skipping the traditional tech talks for something hands-on. After a brief introduction to Cognition—and a hello from Kaya VC—we will split the room into teams and throw you into a high-stakes operational crisis. Your mission? Design an AI-driven solution on the fly. The game is intentionally participatory, using analog teamwork, pens and paper only, no laptops needed. Behind the scenes: Devin, the autonomous software engineer created by Cognition, will ingest your team's responses to track scores and update a live leaderboard on the big screen. Devin will also act as our live AI judge, analyzing your submissions, giving feedback, and delivering real-time praise (or roasts) to the room.

Let’s close the season together – with a drink in hand, sun on our faces, and good people around. To kick things off, Tereza Fukátková (TV Nova) and Jaroslav Rychna (Česká spořitelna) will sit down for a panel on AI adoption — the honest version of what's actually landing and what isn't. After that, Michal Řehout (Rouvy) takes the stage with a talk on how he vibecoded his side project, Skolachek, from start to finish. You can look forward to several special guests: - Tereza Fukátková who leads TV Nova's AI transformation, from strategy to execution. Her team covers both the development of personalization for the Oneplay streaming platform and the deployment of AI in the daily work of the entire company - Jaroslav Rychna, Head of Engineering @ Česká spořitelna. He has spend over 15 years in banking it and is responsible for developing the bank’s engineering community and ensuring that technology works reliably, and teams collaborate smoothly. - Michal Řehout is Web & Mobile Director at Rouvy. In five years at the company, he has worked his way up from Web Team Lead to Web & Mobile Director, with a brief experience in the CTO role in between. He focuses mainly on full-stack web & mobile product building, with strong background in platform and architecture. After that: no slides, no formalities – just a relaxed hangout for tech leaders who want to reconnect, reflect, and recharge. Whether you're staying in the city or just passing through, join us for some chill vibes, interesting conversations, and community spirit. 🍹 Expect light drinks, rooftop energy, and the kind of networking that doesn't feel like work!

An evening for frontend people to talk honestly about what the craft looks like now that AI is part of the team. Two facilitated conversations run in parallel. Pick one and stay, or move between them. The hosts keep things on track; the agenda is whatever the room wants to dig into. What we'll talk about #1 FE Autonomy #2 React Native How the night runs Doors open at 6PM. Kickoff at 6:30 PM with a short intro from our hosts, then we split into the circles. Food and drinks included. Come to learn, come to vent, come to argue with someone smart. All good reasons.
