The Goodbye Meetup

Welcome to our pop-up creators’ and makers’ space: an open, low-barrier environment where people of all disciplines can come together to create. Bring your own tools, whether that’s a laptop, a sketchbook, a typewriter, or a crochet kit and spend time sketching, making, coding, writing, painting, sewing, or building. The concept is simple: no workshops, no formal program, just an open space where everyone is welcome to focus on their own project or get inspired by others. It’s about creating side by side, with minimal structure and maximum accessibility. We can learn and inspire each other. Whether you want to work on your side project, procrastinate your side project with a new side project, or learn a new skill, or just drink coffee - you're welcome to drop by anytime during 10-18h for as long or short as you want. The event is intended to cross-pollination between different disciplines, spark fresh ideas, and inspire participants to explore skills outside their comfort zone. Everyone is welcome, regardless of background or experience.

Join Professor Emeritus Gerd Junne at SustainaLab for a seminar on his book Waterstof NL and the future of hydrogen in the Netherlands. Explore green hydrogen, energy-intensive industries, global developments and the potential of decentralised hydrogen production.

We are thrilled to welcome you to our 12th edition of AI Native Netherlands, hosted at the Studytube headquarters in Amsterdam. In this edition, Pini takes the organisational view of AI coding adoption - how it progresses across an engineering org and the order things tend to break as it scales. Aleksei goes hands-on into the tooling - what happens when you build an MCP server the way the docs suggest, where it falls apart, and the pattern that replaces it. A massive thank you to our host, Studytube, for their generosity in providing the venue and drinks for this evening and for supporting the Dutch AI engineering community. We'll cover: How AI coding adoption progresses across an engineering org, from first licences toward a mostly automated delivery process The order things usually break as adoption scales: coordination, review, testing, context, security boundaries, ownership, CI/CD, and product flow Why faster individual developers don't automatically mean faster team delivery The platform and infrastructure foundations for scaling AI-generated code safely Where traditional MCP tools fit, and where they hit their limits Giving a model an API plus a sandboxed code environment instead of writing a new tool for every use case Running model-generated code safely: sandboxing, module allowlists, CPU and memory limits, static analysis, and audit logs Speaker 1: Pini Reznik (re:cinq) Pini Reznik is a seasoned technology leader with extensive experience in the software industry. He is the CEO and Co-Founder of re:cinq, experts in Cloud Native and AI Native engineering. Former software engineer, Co-Founder of two successful consulting businesses and an O’Reilly author. Talk: The AI Adoption Ladder: From First Licences to the Dark Factory AI coding tools make individual developers faster, but many teams discover that delivery does not improve at the same rate. PR volume rises, review queues grow, tests become less convincing, context gets messy, and eventually
