Join us for the Sphinx Needs User Group Meeting Spring ‘26

📅 Date : April 14, 2026 📍 Location : Munich Urban Colab

We are pleased to invite you to the Spring 2026 Sphinx-Needs User Group Meeting, hosted by useblocks.

This event is part of our ongoing user group series and brings together the Sphinx-Needs community, as well as professionals interested in structured and fully traceable engineering workflows. Together, we will share product updates, discuss roadmap priorities, and exchange hands-on experiences from real-world projects.

‍Focus Topics – Spring 2026 Edition
‍This edition is built around two key pillars:
‍
‍1. Sphinx-Needs Core Stack & useblocks Technology Update
‍Latest developments in the Sphinx-Needs core stack
Updates on the useblocks tool ecosystem
Review and follow-up on the feature priority ranking conducted during our last meeting

‍2. AI Hackathon for Safety-Critical Software Development Special Edition: Hands-on AI Hackathon with Microsoft
‍This spring, we are collaborating with Georg Doll (CTO Automotive, Microsoft) to explore a highly practical and forward-looking question: "How can we accelerate safety-critical software development using AI while remaining safe, deterministic, and fully traceable?"
‍
‍Engineering teams today are under increasing pressure to deliver faster. At the same time, safety-critical environments demand uncompromising traceability, reviewability, and strict compliance.
To keep the session concrete and technically meaningful, this will not be a talk-heavy event. The core of the meeting will be a structured, hands-on hackathon where we collaboratively explore practical approaches, experiment with AI-supported workflows, and evaluate their suitability for safety-critical contexts.
