🔎 A Program for Every Developer

This year’s schedule brings together sessions across Python, Java, Data Science, and JavaScript.
Whether you’re coding in Python notebooks, building enterprise systems in Java, exploring AI-driven APIs with JavaScript, or analyzing data for real-world insights—you’ll find something practical and inspiring.

Here are some examples by technology:

  • Python-focused sessions: Merel Theisen (QuantumBlack, McKinsey) on embedding software engineering best practices into AI projects with Kedro, and Mary Grygleski (AI Collective) on harnessing event-driven and multi-agent architectures.
  • Data Science-focused sessions: Prachi Jamdade (Gravitee) on building API endpoints for AI agents, and Nimo Beeren (iO) on building effective multi-agent applications.
  • Java/Kotlin-focused sessions: Josh Long (Spring Developer Advocate, Broadcom) on Bootiful Artificial Intelligence, and Anton Arhipov (JetBrains) on building AI agents in Kotlin

Attendees will also find deep dives into:

  • AI frameworks and libraries: Spring AI, CrewAI, Kedro, Spark, Apache Iceberg
  • Architectures: Multi-agent systems, event-driven workflows, scalable AI systems
  • Engineering practices: Secure LLM integrations, spec-driven development, best practices for AI projects
  • Collaboration & productivity: AI-powered developer assistance, teamwork in the age of AI
  • Cutting-edge tools: MCP protocol, API endpoint generation, Brokk platform

🌟 Why This Year is Special

  • Code-first learning: Every session has at least 50% code.
  • Top-tier speakers: From Java Champions and CTOs to engineers shaping AI frameworks.
  • Hands-on workshops: Learn by doing, not just listening.
  • Networking built-in: Lunch and drinks make it easy to connect with peers.

This is not a fluffy AI hype conference—it’s a developer-first gathering focused on what you can actually build and ship.
