What to expect The day kicks off with an inspiring keynote, followed by two parallel tracks. The session track features talks, live demos, and in-depth discussions from industry experts and community speakers. The workshop track is where theory turns into practice: guided, hands-on labs where you build working AI solutions yourself, from intelligent agents to production-ready applications.

Developers, architects, data scientists, students, and tech leaders all find sessions tailored to where they are in their AI journey. Why attend Learn practical skills you can apply immediately, straight from experts who build with these tools every day. Get hands-on experience in guided workshops instead of just watching slides.
