Albert Cortez (MongoDB) presents a session on moving from traditional systems of record to agentic AI-powered systems of action, where intelligence layers augment existing data to enable real-time, smarter decisions. Attendees will learn how to unify legacy systems with live agent interactions, apply semantic and governance layers for business context and compliance, and explore real-world demos showing AI orchestrating enterprise workflows. The session targets AI professionals, engineers, and executives looking to turn AI capabilities into measurable outcomes.

After the event, you will be able to join Tech Barcelona’s Pier01 Afterwork at Pier01’s terrace to find out about tech projects in the pitching session and, after that, enjoy networking with a Damm beer and great views of downtown.

Angel investing isn’t just about picking great startups — it’s about building a portfolio that can withstand uncertainty and compound over time.

In “Portfolio Power: How Smart Angels Reduce Risk Through Diversification,” we’ll break down how experienced angel investors think about diversification across stages, sectors, geographies, and check sizes — and why portfolio construction is just as important as deal selection.

This session is designed for current and aspiring angel investors who want to move beyond intuition and learn practical strategies to reduce risk, manage exposure, and increase the odds of strong outcomes over the long run. Expect real examples, honest trade-offs, and actionable insights you can apply to your own investment strategy.

IEBS Business School organitza el Trends Summit 2026, un esdeveniment en línia que se celebrarà el dijous 26 de febrer a les 18.00 h (hora d’Espanya) i que posarà el focus en les tendències clau que ja estan impactant empreses i professionals.

La trobada reunirà especialistes en economia, intel·ligència artificial, talent i màrqueting de KPMG, Metricool, knowmad mood, PwC, entre d’altres, que compartiran com estan interpretant el context actual i quines decisions estratègiques s’estan prenent avui amb la mirada posada en el 2026.

Un espai per entendre el context i prendre decisions amb criteri

El món ja no canvia per cicles previsibles, sinó per senyals econòmics, tecnològics, socials i culturals que ja estan marcant el rumb dels pròxims anys. En aquest escenari, les organitzacions i els professionals que avancen no són els que intenten predir el futur, sinó els que saben llegir abans el context i connectar tendències amb decisions reals.

​Let’s rethink security for the quantum era together! 

​Quantum computing isn’t just a breakthrough in computing, it’s a turning point for security.

​Not tomorrow, not in a movie, but fast enough to start questioning the assumptions behind today’s protection models.

• ​What happens to the security frameworks we rely on today?

• ​When should companies start preparing?

• ​Is post-quantum security urgency or overreaction?

​We’re hosting an evening to explore these questions in a clear, engaging way.

​You’ll hear from Jordi Puiggalí, Co-founder & CTO of Secrets Vault, a recognized expert in cybersecurity and cryptography with more than 30 years of experience across IT, cryptography and blockchain. Jordi has authored 50+ research publications and holds 50 patents in cryptographic protocols and secure technologies, with notable work in areas such as election security and secure digital systems.

​He’ll explain what the quantum transition means from a security perspective, why it matters for real-world infrastructures, and how organizations can approach it with strategy rather than fear.

​What we’ll explore:

• ​ Why quantum computing reshapes the future of cybersecurity

• ​ The real risk behind “harvest now, decrypt later”

• ​ Where post-quantum security standards stand today

• ​ What this means for data protection, digital trust and long-term resilience

• ​ How to start preparing without disrupting your current security architecture

​No hype, no fear-mongering, just a smart conversation about what’s next!

​Agenda:

​19:00 – Welcome

​19:30 – Security talk by Jordi

​20:00 – Roundtable (TBC)

​20:30 – Drinks & networking

​Join us for quantum beers, they’re full and empty until you take a sip!

​Register now for a smart, relaxed evening with people who care about where security is heading with good conversations, great company and a few surprises along the way (limited availability). Registration is required to access the location.

At InnoIT Consulting, we are delighted to invite you to our upcoming meetup, organized in collaboration with Sony AI, on Wednesday, February 25th.

🎙️Transforming scientific literature into discovery at Sony AI

The speaker will be Miquel Ferrer (ML/AI Engineer at Sony AI).

SUMMARY

In this talk we will gain insight into how AI can act as a bridge across domains, transforming the overwhelming scale of modern research into a proactive engine for discovery.

In an era where thousands of papers are published daily, even the most specialized experts struggle to stay afloat. However, the sheer volume of global research represents more than a management challenge—it is a massive, untapped resource for discovery.

In this session, we will explore how AI can transform the vast body of scientific literature into an interconnected system of concepts and entities. Moving beyond simple search and efficiency, we discuss how modeling the evolution of knowledge enables us to uncover “scientifically plausible links”—hidden connections across domains, such as biology and medicine, that are supported by data but have not yet been articulated in print.

By leveraging AI to bridge these silos, we can move from managing what is known to predicting the next frontier of scientific breakthroughs.

This event is for you if you’re in: AI/ML, Data & Analytics, NLP/LLMs, Knowledge Graphs/Ontologies, Search/IR, MLOps, or Data Engineering and want to turn research into actionable discovery.

With time for a dynamic Q&A session and, of course, our networking with food 🍕 and drinks 🍻.
