Let’s gather, connect, and dive into thoughtful conversations in a relaxed setting. Barcelona, we’re coming!

How to Evaluate a Startup in 10 Minutes: A Practical Framework

Learn the exact framework experienced angels use to evaluate any startup in minutes; practical, repeatable, and no finance degree required **Overview** Most startup pitches sound compelling in the room. The real skill is knowing what to look for and what to look past. This is a hands on, practical session designed to give you the fundemental framework that experienced angel investors use to quickly filter opportunities. No spreadsheets, no MBA required. Just a basic, repeatable process you can use whether you're evaluating your first deal or trying to bring more discipline to how you assess opportunities. **What you'll walk away with:** * A starting framework for evaluating a startup in under 10 minutes * Some insight into key criteria angels use to separate signal from noise — Problem, solution, team, market, traction, and more * The red flags most first-time investors miss (and how to spot them fast) * A simple scoring approach you can personalise and reuse across every deal you see * Confidence to walk into any pitch and know what questions to ask **Who is this for?** This session is for aspiring angels, early-stage investors, and curious professionals who want a practical toolkit not theory. If you've ever sat through a pitch and thought *"I have no idea how to judge this,"* this session was built for you. **What to expect:** This is not a lecture. Expect real examples, interactive discussion, and a framework you'll actually use. Come ready to think critically, ask questions, and leave with something tangible in hand. The best investors aren't the ones who say yes the most they're the ones who know quickly and confidently when to say no. 2 hour event (There will be time for networking!). **About the organizer –** **[SIA Angel Hub](https://www.siaangelhub.com/?utm_source=luma "https://www.siaangelhub.com/?utm_source=luma") (previously SIA - Startup Investor Accelerator)** SIA is an angel investor hub designed to help more people become active participants in innovation through angel investing, entrepreneurship, and meaningful ecosystem connections.

Design is changing, but it's definitely not dead

**UX Hub** is thrilled to welcome you to our next event, hosted at Preply's offices in Barcelona! **Design is changing, but it's definitely not dead** Every AI tool launches ships with a eulogy for design. This talk argues that the hot takes have it backwards: AI has transformed the cost of executing design work, gathering data, analysing it, ideating, prototyping, and even shipping code, but it hasn't touched the part that was always the point. The thinking. Drawing on how the design team at Preply works with AI day to day, Tim explores the traps waiting inside this new speed: mistaking fluency for intelligence, mistaking a fast answer for the right one, and the recursive slop loop where AI-generated work trains the next generation of AI, raising the floor while quietly lowering the ceiling. The conclusion is optimistic. Design isn't disappearing, its stages are being redistributed between human and machine. Thinking is the glue between those stages, and choosing what to hand over, and what to hold, is the new craft. **Speaker** [Tim Green](https://www.linkedin.com/in/destroywerk/) is a Principal Product Designer at Preply. Originally from Manchester, UK, he began his career in traditional graphic design before transitioning to product design. After living in Berlin and Buenos Aires, he settled in London, where he has been based for the past 15 years. Tim spent nearly a decade at Google helping to launch Android Enterprise, Pixel Watch, and Pixel Tablet. He then moved to the HR SaaS platform Personio to solve complex organizational structure challenges. He is currently the Area Lead for the Growth tribe at Preply, supporting seven teams in creating the best possible onboarding experience for new learners. **Hosts** This event is hosted by [Preply](https://preply.com/), one of the world's leading online language learning platforms, connecting learners with tutors for live, personalized lessons in over 50 languages. Its platform combines smart matching technology with a global community of tutors, helping millions of learners build real-world language skills through one-on-one, tailored instruction. **Location:** Preply\*\*,\*\* 97 Carrer de Badajoz, Sant Martí, 08018 Barcelona, Spain **To join us, just:** ✅ RSVP here on Meetup ✅ Answer [this form](https://48db4b2d.sibforms.com/serve/MUIFALfB0bn_p1G9zS7yYICl8fr4aT-cjBYl7Ow1DKvi6gv1FzDSE3Dt9fmIH5k78PONlJNEn2S6UnpOuo_VNIeUd69dkI5RJ0kaw7TjtxPjtwYy8KKc80BkMTozTqyRXiKCcXK9G8y-NccOB4S1Ci0SPkuWLJ5BCVWC80yGZ9bhinpCpoBKNV5cyovr3wH4BWM1_lNTf8IsVTvO) **What’s Happening?** * Keynote Talk: Tim Green * Hope in the Age of AI: Design is changing, but it's definitely not dead * Hosts: Preply * Interactive Q&A: Get your questions answered * Community Networking: Connect with fellow designers, AI specialists, and UX thinkers **Details:** **🗓️ Date**: Wednesday, July 15, 2026 **⏰ Time:** 18:30–21:00 📍 **Location:** Preply, 97 Carrer de Badajoz, Sant Martí, 08018 Barcelona, Spain **Why You’ll Love It:** A sharp take on why thinking, not execution, was always the real craft. **Agenda:** **18:30 – Doors Open** **18:45 – Introduction** **19:00–20:15 – Talk & Q&A** **20:15–21:00 – Socialization & Fun!** **Educational partners:** [Interaction Design Foundation](https://ixdf.org/) [Uxcel](https://uxcel.com/?utm_medium=paid%20search&utm_source=google&utm_campaign=brand&utm_term=uxcel&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=23478421564&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=23478421564&gbraid=0AAAAAoYVYnfrZ5Yt8YP5nzmg5PiQ4LvIK&gclid=CjwKCAjw6rfSBhAqEiwA_yocppX7EENM8-y2gWRMnWIprvZnHOrWMLhhAxQKPof1jyFAryWd1HY_ERoCJIQQAvD_BwE) [Uxia](https://www.uxia.app/) **P.S.** Please make sure to show up on time. **If we reach full capacity, we'll not be able to let you in**, even if you have a ticket!

Workshop PNL 🧠 Entrena tu Mente para Lograr tus Objetivos ✨

**Workshop PNL 🧠 Entrena tu Mente para Lograr tus Objetivos ✨** El éxito —ya sea profesional, personal o empresarial— no depende únicamente del talento o del esfuerzo. La forma en que piensas, interpretas lo que te ocurre, gestionas tus creencias/emociones y te comunicas contigo mismo condiciona las decisiones que tomas y, en consecuencia, los resultados que obtienes. En este **Workshop de Programación Neurolingüística (PNL)** descubrirás los principios fundamentales de una de las metodologías más reconocidas para comprender cómo funciona la mente, modificar patrones de pensamiento y desarrollar una mentalidad más orientada al logro. Durante las dos horas de sesión exploraremos los conceptos esenciales de la PNL desde un enfoque claro, práctico y aplicable. Combinaremos la explicación de sus principales herramientas con algunos **ejercicios y prácticas** que te permitirán comprender cómo aplicar estos principios en situaciones reales. A lo largo del workshop abordaremos temas como: * Qué es la PNL y en qué se fundamenta * Cómo se forman las creencias y de qué manera condicionan nuestros resultados. * La influencia del lenguaje interno en nuestras emociones y decisiones. * Cómo identificar patrones mentales que limitan nuestro potencial. * Estrategias para desarrollar una mentalidad más enfocada, flexible y orientada a objetivos. * Aplicaciones de la PNL en el liderazgo, la comunicación, el emprendimiento y el desarrollo personal. Este workshop está dirigido a emprendedores, profesionales y personas interesadas en el crecimiento personal que desean comprender mejor el funcionamiento de su mente y adquirir herramientas para potenciar su desarrollo personal y profesional. **¿Qué te llevarás?** * Una visión sólida de los fundamentos de la Programación Neurolingüística. * Una mejor comprensión de cómo tus pensamientos, creencias y emociones influyen en tus resultados. * Técnicas sencillas y prácticas que podrás seguir desarrollando y aplicando en tu día a día. * Una nueva perspectiva para afrontar objetivos, desafíos y procesos de cambio con mayor claridad y confianza. Porque cuando comprendes cómo funciona tu mente, empiezas a utilizarla como tu mejor aliada para construir la vida que deseas. ✨ **Instructor**: Alejandro Alonso \| Coach\, PNL practitioner **Linkedin**: [www.linkedin.com/in/aalonsoas](http://www.linkedin.com/in/aalonsoas) **Aportación:** 10€
