In this keynote, Allie K. Miller breaks down what it takes to become an AI-first business. Drawing on her work advising the world's leading companies, she shows how AI is transforming three core areas of every organization: people, process and product, with concrete, real-world examples.

You’ll get a deep understanding of the shifts defining the next era, from assistants to autonomous agents, and how to stay ahead of the competition.

The first wave of AI raised a provocative question: would agents make enterprise software obsolete? This panel looks beyond that initial disruption narrative to explore what's actually changing.

Leaders from Anthropic, AWS, NVIDIA, Kernel Foods and Teneo will discuss how AI is reshaping the way software is built, bought, operated and consumed. From durable horizontal platforms and regulated enterprise data to agentic workflows, production-ready products, infrastructure and commercial models, the conversation will examine where legacy systems remain essential—and where new interfaces and operating models are emerging.

Expect an honest discussion of the hard questions: Are organizations trading predictable SaaS subscriptions for volatile AI costs? Can agents preserve the governance and reliability enterprises depend on? And what does it now take to turn an idea into a scalable product?

AI has made outputs abundant, but it also made judgement scarce and value complex to track.  If tokens were free tomorrow, many AI projects wouldn’t be any closer to ROI.  Alexander Moore will share real-world, proven patterns that are common to organizations enjoying compounding returns with AI. Modeling the action layer, owning the learning loop, and iterating on delegation of authority for agents are key capabilities required to recognize enduring returns with AI. Together, we'll explore how to make the most of your scarcest resource: executive judgement.

After lunch, the agenda belongs to the attendees. Martin Fowler will host us for an afternoon 'unconference' – a participant-driven event experience rooted in Open Space principles. There are no keynotes, formal presentations or pre-set speakers. Instead, the participants propose the discussion topics that matter most, focusing on real-world challenges, shared experience and forward-looking ideas. What proceeds is a series of simultaneous breakout sessions, and attendees choose the discussions they want to take part in. 

The sessions follow the Chatham House Rule, creating space for open discussion without attribution.
