August 2022 Summaries

Graph Data Zagreb is hosting its 6th meetup on September 7, 2022, in Zagreb, Croatia, featuring a talk on tracking data lineage with a graph database by MANTA, which highlights the capabilities of the MANTA Flow product in automating data flow analysis across interconnected systems using a graph database. The event also includes presentations by interns from Memgraph, who participated in projects focused on node classification in fraud detection, link prediction in telecom systems, GitHub code analysis, a Hacker News analyzer, and a document recommendation system. The meetup encourages participation by offering networking opportunities along with refreshments and invites attendees to join their community on Discord to stay updated on future events.

The second company retreat organized by the firm was a four-day event combining work and leisure, with activities in Zagreb and on the island of Mali Losinj. The retreat began with a day of workshops and sessions at the company's hybrid office, where employees engaged in icebreakers, discussed company goals, and aligned on Memgraph’s positioning. The subsequent days were filled with team-building activities such as rafting on the Mreznica river and exploring the Losinj archipelago, fostering teamwork and camaraderie among employees. The retreat also featured social events, including a cocktail night that encouraged bonding and fun. Despite the eventual return and the usual post-event melancholy, the retreat was deemed successful in strengthening relationships and setting a positive tone for future endeavors.
