☕ Noteworthy Coffee + Deep Conversations Roundtable + Breakfast (Pasadena)
Sun, Sep 27, 3:30 PM📅 **Date:** **Sunday, September 27th, 2026** 🕣 **Time:** **8:30 a.m. – 10:30 a.m.** 💲 **Cover Fee:** **Free** 📍 **Location: Urth Caffé - Pasadena** 594 E. Colorado Blvd., Pasadena, CA 91101 🚗 **Parking:** Street and nearby public parking available 👥 **Age Group:** Late 20s – Early 40s **Description:** Join us for a relaxed Sunday morning of coffee, breakfast, conversation, and connection with people from Andy's board-game, pickleball, kickball, and mahjong communities. This meetup is designed for people who want to connect beyond the usual game table and have conversations that are a little more thoughtful than everyday small talk, while still keeping the atmosphere light, social, and welcoming. There is no expectation to share anything overly personal or serious. This is not a support group or group therapy. Come as you are, grab something to eat or drink, meet some new people, and participate at whatever level feels comfortable. We’ll begin with a few light icebreakers and social games such as **Monikers**, **We’re Not Really Strangers**, **The { } And**, and other easy conversation-based games. Nothing overly strategic or intense, just something fun to get everyone talking, laughing, and comfortable with one another. From there, we’ll transition into an open roundtable discussion with questions designed to be interesting, slightly provocative, and relatable without turning the morning into a political debate. Some of our discussion questions may include: * Is being “financially responsible” getting harder, or are people simply spending too much? * At what point does being frugal become cheap? * Should friends with very different incomes still split everything 50/50? * Is homeownership still a realistic goal, or is renting becoming the smarter lifestyle choice? * How much money does someone actually need to feel financially secure today? There are no right or wrong answers. The goal is simply to hear different perspectives, challenge a few assumptions, and enjoy a thoughtful conversation with people you might not otherwise meet. Expect good coffee, breakfast, friendly faces, a few laughs, and conversations that make Sunday morning worth getting up for. **Venue Purchase Requirement:** By attending this event, you agree to purchase **at least one food or beverage item directly from Urth Caffé** during the meetup.

Prediction Markets: Beyond the Bet
Fri, Oct 2, 3:15 PMPrediction markets allow people to trade on whether a future event will happen, from election outcomes and interest rate decisions to economic indicators and business events. While prediction markets have been around for years, they’re rapidly evolving beyond betting and speculation. Growing participation, new technology, regulatory changes, and the rise of AI are expanding their potential uses for forecasting, risk management, financial products, data, and decision making. Maria Cannizzo, Founder & CEO of Kelvon, will break down how prediction markets work, what’s driving their growth, who’s participating, and where the industry is headed. She’ll also explore the challenges created by a market that is currently fragmented across different platforms, contracts, terminology, and settlement rules — and how new infrastructure is being built to help businesses reliably tap into prediction market data and intelligence. Whether you already follow prediction markets or are simply wondering what all the buzz is about, this conversation will offer an accessible look at this emerging financial and technology ecosystem and why its potential may extend well beyond the bet. **About Maria Cannizzo** Maria Cannizzo is the Founder and CEO of Kelvon, an intelligent infrastructure and data platform for event and prediction markets. She has spent more than 15 years building enterprise financial technology at both large corporations and early-stage startups, with experience developing and scaling global FinTech infrastructure across traditional finance and digital assets. Today, she is building Kelvon for a future where event markets are embedded across financial products, AI systems, data platforms, and enterprise applications. **Networking** Come early to connect with fellow founders, technologists, creatives, and community members. Friday Coffee Meetup is as much about the people in the room as it is about the conversation on stage.
