How is AI changing the world beyond software?
Thu, Oct 22, 4:30 PMAfter a too long break, it's time to get together again. And the next meetup topic is: **"How is AI changing the world beyond software?"** We, *software* product builders, deal with AI every day in our product work. We can imagine where things are heading in the our *software* building world, but what about the rest of the world? Healthcare, education, logistics, the arts? What's actually shifting out there? To keep it real, I'd love each of you to bring a guest who does NOT work in tech or software. A teacher, a doctor, an architect, a chef... anyone with a perspective from outside our bubble. More details coming soon. Looking forward to seeing you all again!

Brew & Brainstorm: Design Thinking for Sustainability
Sun, Oct 25, 1:00 PM**Brew & Brainstorm: Design Thinking for Sustainability** Got a sustainability question you can't stop thinking about? An idea you'd like to test, or a challenge from your work or daily life? Bring it along. Brew & Brainstorm is a relaxed, participant-led coffee session. **You set the agenda.** There are no slides and no lectures. Just curious people, good coffee, and conversations that actually go somewhere. **How it works** ☕ **Arrive & connect (10 min):** Grab a coffee and meet the group. 💡 **Share your topics (10 min):** Everyone writes down one or two sustainability topics they want to explore. These can be climate, circular economy, fashion, supply chains, green careers, everyday habits, policy, or anything else. 🗳️ **Vote (5 min):** The group picks the topics with the most energy. 🔄 **Design-thinking rounds (2–3 x 15 min):** For each topic, we use simple design thinking steps: * *Understand:* What's really going on? Who is affected? * *Reframe:* What's the core challenge? * *Ideate:* What could we do differently, as individuals, organizations, or communities? ✨ **Takeaways (10 min):** Each person shares one insight or one action they'll try. **Who should join** Anyone curious about sustainability is welcome: professionals, students, entrepreneurs, career changers, or people who simply care. No expertise is needed, only an open mind and a willingness to share. **Why come** * Meet like-minded people in a small, welcoming group * Explore the topics *you* care about, not a fixed agenda * Leave with fresh perspectives and practical ideas * Help shape a growing sustainability community 📍 Café Neundrei, Monbijouplatz 2, 10178 Berlin ☕ **Please note:** We're hosted by Café Neundrei, so each attendee is expected to order at least one drink or snack. It's a small way to thank our hosts for the space and keep this meetup possible. *Bring a friend. Every great idea starts with a conversation.*

See & Discuss #01: Cattelan - Neue Nationalgalerie
Sun, Nov 1, 5:00 PMFor our first meetup, we’re diving into the world of Maurizio Cattelan at Berlin’s Neue Nationalgalerie. Known for his provocative, often ironic works, Cattelan has a way of making us laugh, feel uncomfortable, question what we’re seeing — and sometimes wonder whether it’s art at all. Have you visited the exhibition? Let’s get together to share our impressions, exchange perspectives, and discuss what we think lies behind the work. We’ll kick things off with a few conversation prompts before settling into a relaxed, open discussion. Afterwards, we’ll continue over drinks and get to know each other. No art expertise required, no right or wrong answers — just curiosity, an open mind, and a willingness to share your thoughts. **Important**: Please visit the exhibition independently before the meetup. You don’t need to prepare anything — just come with your impressions! https://www.smb.museum/en/exhibitions/detail/maurizio-cattelan-night/ Let’s see what happens when we look at the same art through different eyes. ✨

A Talk on Career & Personal Insights with Torsten Waack van Wasen
Thu, Oct 29, 9:00 AM**CEO of GERRY WEBER, Managing Director at Internetstores, COO of Marc Cain, Operating Partner in private equity: on paper, Torsten’s career looks like a classic success story.** But that’s not the story he is coming to Visionary Voices to tell. Instead, he will talk about what rarely makes it onto a CV: decisions that didn’t work out, unexpected detours, moments of doubt — and why some of his biggest mistakes became some of his most valuable experiences. His path to senior leadership was anything but conventional. Rather than starting out in finance or business, Torsten began his career in communications and marketing. He will take us back to the marketing world of the 1980s and reflect on just how much the way we work has changed since then. What have we gained — and what might we have lost along the way? Does everything we call progress actually move us forward? And what role do the latest digital tools and AI play in all of this? After decades in international business and senior leadership, his perspective ultimately leads to a much more personal question — one that no CV can answer: What truly matters in the end? Which experiences and values stay with us? How does our understanding of success change over the course of a career? And what can we learn from the moments that didn’t go according to plan? An invitation to look beyond titles, positions, and polished success stories — and discover a more personal and reflective perspective on a remarkable career.
