Workshop | Building a Sandboxed Multi-Agent System
By Vikram Vaswani Developer Advocate (India)

Codegen agents are becoming standard for both local and remote workloads. As their capabilities grow, so does the blast radius when their experiments go wrong: deleted files, leaked secrets, corrupted state, and in adversarial cases, host compromise.Sandboxes are the emerging answer. Think of them like a laptop for agents: close the lid and the environment suspends, open it and it resumes instantly with full state preserved. Hardware-level isolation with sub-second startup, giving agents somewhere to run arbitrary code without touching the host.With a sandbox in place, the next question is what to put in front of it. A single agent with a big toolbox and one sandbox is the obvious starting point...and it works, until it doesn't. Context windows balloon, the model second-guesses its own tool choices, and one prompt ends up trying to do reviewer, refactorer, and test-writer all at once.Specialized agents are a better unit of composition: each one narrow in scope, easier to evaluate, easier to swap out, and easier to reason about when something goes wrong. But the hard part isn't building one agent; it's getting two of them to share enough context to collaborate without stepping on each other.This full-day, hands-on workshop walks attendees through the complete journey: from a single-prompt prototype to a sandboxed, multi-agent system with shared context. We will build it using the OpenAI Agents SDK (Apache 2.0, LLM-agnostic) wired to a cloud sandbox via MCP. The pattern is vendor-agnostic and works with any LLM and sandbox provider supported by the SDK. Teams with data sovereignty requirements can swap in self-hosted open-weight models such as Llama 3 or Mistral served via vLLM or Ollama.

Workshop | AI privacy - How to protect users from themselves
By Ramus Longva Haugland AI Engineer at Computas AS (Norway)

Traditional web applications send raw, sensitive user data to the server, relying on downstream backend processes for redaction. This workshop challenges that paradigm by moving the privacy boundary directly into the browser.In this hands-on session, Rasmus Longva Haugland shows participants how to build a privacy-first frontend architecture using Next.js. Participants will learn how to implement a local AI model that detects and masks personally identifiable information (PII) in real time, ensuring sensitive data is intercepted and sanitized before a network request is ever made.Key takeaways:* How to integrate local, WebGPU-accelerated AI models into a real-world Next.js application. * Techniques for offloading heavy inference tasks to Web Workers to maintain a seamless user experience. * A concrete, privacy-by-design architecture that participants can adapt for their own production environments. * A pragmatic breakdown of where client-side AI meaningfully reduces compliance exposure and where it does not.

Transforming Video on the Fly: Practical AI Solutions for Creators
By Rafal Leszko Staff Software Engineer at Livepeer (Poland)

Generative AI is opening new possibilities for creating and transforming video in real time. In this talk, the speaker explores how recent models such as StreamDiffusion and LongLive push diffusion techniques into practical use for low-latency video generation and transformation. The speaker provides a deep technical walkthrough of how these systems can be adapted for streaming use cases, unpacking the full pipeline - from decoding, through the diffusion process, to encoding - and highlighting optimisation strategies, such as key–value (KV) caching, that make interactive generation possible. The talk also discusses the trade-offs between ultra-low-latency video transformation and generating longer, more coherent streams. To make it concrete, the speaker presents demos of StreamDiffusion (served with the open-source cloud service Daydream) and LongLive (explored with the open-source research tool Scope), showcasing practical examples of both video-to-video transformation and streaming text-to-video generation.

Deterministic Agent Architectures in a Probabilistic World
By Stanko Kuveljić Staff ML Engineer at SmartCat.io (Serbia)

As AI agents become more capable, many engineering teams embed increasingly complex business logic directly into system prompts. While effective in prototypes, this approach creates invisible technical debt: nondeterministic failures, brittle model upgrades, and regression cycles that are difficult to reason about or validate.In this technical case study, Stanko Kuveljić present the refactoring of a production scheduling agent from prompt-encoded logic to a deterministic, state-driven architecture. By separating model reasoning from application state transitions, the team introduced explicit invariant enforcement, structured observability, and behavioral testing gates across the continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipeline.Key topics include:Designing state graphs that enforce deterministic routing for business-critical operationsImplementing behavioral validation pipelines that test agent tool calls and state mutations instead of conversational phrasingReducing prompt surface area to improve traceability, reproducibility, and model upgrade safetyIntroducing deployment gates that reduced manual regression validation effort in productionAttendees will leave with a reference architecture, a behavioral testing checklist, and a step-by-step approach for migrating prompt-driven agent systems toward bounded, production-grade reliability.

Designing Insurable AI: Avoiding Costly Mistakes
By Ioana Ghita AI Architect at Accesa (Romania)

AI agents are already causing real financial damage, and insurers are beginning to price that risk, with policies covering up to $50 million in agent-caused losses. As agent insurance becomes as common as cyber insurance, the key question is no longer “does it work?” but “is it insurable?” Most teams unknowingly disqualify their systems from certification during the design phase. This talk explains why and shows how to avoid it. Ioana Ghita presents a practical framework for designing AI agents that can be certified and insured. Drawing from real production deployments, she shows how five critical early architectural decisions determine whether an agent can meet emerging standards like AIUC-1. Attendees will hear: Five design decisions that make an agent certifiable Four behavioral validations that generate auditable evidence Three runtime metrics required to maintain certificationEach point is grounded in production failures where the architecture was the root cause, not the model.

Integrating Human Knowledge with AI
By Maya Lievegoed CEO of HUMINT Solutions Europe (Netherlands)

AI is everywhere in business conversations today, yet many organizations ignore the elephant in the room: AI can only analyze what has already been documented. Some of the most valuable insights about emerging risks and opportunities never appear in systems, dashboards, or models. In this keynote, Maya Lievegoed, CEO of HUMINT Solutions Europe, reveals why artificial-intelligence-driven strategies miss these signals and how leaders can systematically capture and integrate this unrecognized human knowledge into their AI and intelligence workflows. Through real-world cases, she demonstrates how uncovering hidden insights has transformed organizational decisions and strategy. The result is smarter decisions, higher employee engagement, and a competitive advantage that data alone cannot deliver.

Skill issue: Teaching robots to play Counterstrike with imitation learning
By Thomas Endres Managing Partner at TNG Technology Consulting GmbH (Germany)

Have you ever wished you had an equal who could play Counter-Strike just as well as you? Thanks to recent developments in Robot Foundation Models (RFMs), robots can learn how to play video games just like you, imitating your best and worst behaviours. In this talk, Thomas Endres and Jonas Mayer show how to use imitation learning to teach an RFM to play arbitrary games. They draw first blood with an introduction to Robot Foundation Models. Attendees will learn how they work, what kind of data they are designed to process, and how that makes NVIDIA’s GR00T perfect for playing video games. After that, they quick-scope the concept of imitation learning, what kind of data they need to train their GR00T model, and how they can collect it from games. Finally, they tell the story of leveling up the model from total noob to global elite - one failure at a time - and share all the things they learned along the way.Throughout the talk, Thomas and Jonas include live demos in their slides. To close the game, they challenge one member of the audience to beat GR00T live on stage in a 1v1.

Scaling AI Successfully - seeing the forest for the trees
By Tiankai Feng Director at Thoughtworks (Germany)

Getting started with AI has never been easier, but moving from a flashy pilot to enterprise-scale value is where most companies hit a wall. Real success requires looking past the “trees” of cutting-edge tech to see the “forest” of organizational culture and human integration. To bridge this gap, Tiankai Feng introduces the FOREST framework, a strategic blueprint designed to ensure that AI initiatives deliver measurable impact by prioritizing the bigger picture from day one.

Solving the AI agent trust problem: a practical implementation of verifiable delegation
By Agne Caunt Product Owner at Dock Labs (Lithuania)

Service providers are suspicious of today’s AI agents because there is no practical way to verify that an agent is executing in line with the intent of a human who can be held responsible for the agent's actions. This fundamental trust barrier is a problem of delegated authority. Current approaches using API keys or session tokens provide insufficient granularity, auditability, and security for real-world autonomous actions. As a result, manual human approval is required to complete transactions, and agents do not live up to their potential. In this talk, Agne Caunt shows how to provide AI agents with secure, verifiable digital credentials that prove a user’s identity and permissions, allowing vendors to easily trust and approve transactions. She does this through a practical implementation of cryptographic delegation using verifiable credentials. The talk introduces a dual credential architecture combining user identity credentials (KYC) with agent authorization credentials (KYA) that prove bounded, time-limited delegation authority. The system integrates with the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and leverages zero-knowledge proofs for privacy-preserving verification. Agne makes the conversation tangible with a demonstration illustrating how service providers verify the necessary KYC and KYA credentials. She then covers critical implementation decisions such as wallet UX to reduce adoption friction, RESTful API patterns for AI platform integration, credential lifecycle management, granular permission controls, and ecosystem challenges around standardization and service provider adoption. Attendees will leave with actionable insights for implementing delegated authority in their own AI agent systems.

The Email Operating System: Teaching AI to Orchestrate, Not Improvise
By Dmytro Kudrenko Founder of Stripo Inc (Ukraine)

Three leading LLMs were tested on real email generation tasks, with 61% average quality and zero production-ready outputs. The problem isn’t the models — it’s what they’re working with. Prompt-to-HTML is structurally broken: no brand memory, no section roles, and no safe way to swap a layout without destroying content. This talk introduces the Email Domain System — a semantic contract layer that turns AI from a generator into an orchestrator. Instead of improvising HTML, AI selects governed components, plans section sequences through compositional briefs, and fills content into defined slots. A variant swap changes the entire layout while preserving every heading, image, and CTA. Dmytro Kudrenko will show, with real examples, how the full pipeline works and why this architecture generalizes beyond email: AI quality is bounded by the semantic contracts it operates within.

Streamlining Communication: A Brain-First AI Approach
By Paweł Feliński Advisor to the Board at Primotly (Poland)

In a remote-first software house, meetings and asynchronous chats quickly become the backbone of communication. As every new tool suddenly becomes “AI-powered”, instead of following the usual “AI everywhere” trend, Paweł Feliński and his team took a brain-first approach: first understanding how knowledge actually moved through the organisation, and only then deciding where AI could genuinely help.That led to an unexpected discovery: many recurring agile “ceremonies” existed mainly to move information from one person to another.Once they started treating organisational knowledge as an operational problem, not just a documentation problem, several things changed quickly. Post-meeting note-taking disappeared. Developers stopped joining estimation sessions by default. Specifications became asynchronous, reviewable, and easier to evolve. Some meetings became shorter. Others vanished entirely. What disappeared were not feedback loops or collaboration, but the manual overhead around them.To support this, the team built a lightweight, LLM-agnostic internal knowledge layer designed around their actual delivery workflows rather than generic AI productivity demos.Not every experiment worked. In several cases, removing a ceremony also removed hidden coordination value they had not noticed before.This talk is a practical before/after case study of how a growing software company used a brain-first AI approach to reduce coordination overhead — and discovered that many agile “ceremonies” existed mainly to compensate for broken knowledge flow.

Why Most AI Initiatives Fail - A Leadership Framework for Turning AI Into Real Business Results
By Peter Mesarec CEO at SEOS AI (Slovenia)

Most organizations already have access to AI tools, yet very few are achieving measurable business transformation. After working with more than 150 companies on AI adoption and operational implementation, Peter Mesarec has identified a recurring pattern: AI initiatives rarely fail because of technology limitations. They fail because leadership teams approach AI without a structured execution model. Companies often jump directly into tools, pilots, or automation before identifying where AI creates the highest operational value, how teams will actually adopt it, and how leadership should guide implementation across the organization. In this session, Peter presents a practical leadership framework for turning AI from isolated experimentation into measurable operational impact. The presentation is based on real implementation patterns observed across multiple industries and departments, including marketing, customer support, HR, finance, and operations. Attendees will learns Why most AI initiatives stall after the initial excitement phase The leadership mistakes that create fragmented AI adoption How to identify high-impact AI opportunities before investing in automation How to prioritize AI initiatives based on operational ROI Why employees use AI individually while organizations still see little measurable impact How to reduce resistance, shadow AI, and tool chaos What successful AI-first organizations consistently do differently The session focuses on practical implementation, measurable outcomes, and organizational execution rather than AI hype or futuristic predictions. Attendees will leave with a realistic framework they can immediately apply inside their own organizations to improve AI adoption, alignment, and business results.

Observability Is How You Manage Agents
By Sam Komesarook Founder of Arts & Engineering Composite (UK)

AI agents are no longer just prompts with tool calls. They are long-running, asynchronous systems that act across tools, queues, context, sandboxes, and teams. In this talk, Sam Komesarook shows why debugging agents is becoming less like reading logs and more like managing autonomous workers: tracing what happened, interpreting recurring behavior, catching failures live, and closing the loop from insight to intervention.

From Industrial to Digital Mindset: Why Most AI Transformations Fail Before They Start
By Jamie Bykov-Brett Founder of Bykov-Brett Enterprises (UK)

Most organisations invest heavily in AI tools and almost nothing in the human systems those tools depend on. In this session, Jamie Bykov-Brett, AI Transformation Strategist and founder of Bykov-Brett Enterprises, makes the case that the biggest barrier to AI adoption is not technical, but cultural. Drawing on hands-on consulting work across regulated industries and C-suite training programmes, Jamie presents a repeatable framework for diagnosing and closing the mindset gap that silently kills AI initiatives. Attendees will leave with a practical diagnostic tool, a model for phased cultural change, and concrete before-and-after examples from real enterprise deployments. This session is built for leaders who are tired of transformation roadmaps that look great on slides but stall in practice.

The Art of Inventing: How Curiosity Creates Better Systems, Products, and Ideas
By Mantas Damijonaitis Founder of Notas IT (Lithuania)

Many people associate invention with groundbreaking discoveries, patents, or revolutionary products. In reality, invention happens every day. A new workflow that saves an hour each week, a system that eliminates a recurring problem, or a simple habit that improves consistency can be far more valuable than a world-changing idea that never leaves the drawing board.In this talk, Mantas Damijonaitis shares practical techniques for developing an inventor’s mindset. Drawing from his experience as a software architect, entrepreneur, and continuous optimizer, he explores how curiosity leads to better solutions, how discipline turns ideas into reality, and why small inventions often have the greatest impact. Attendees will leave with actionable methods for identifying opportunities, designing their own systems, and continuously improving the way they work and live.

AI Anxiety: Maintaining Autonomy and Purpose in the Era of Digital Gods
By Povilas Godliauskas Well-Being Psychologist Therapist and Researcher (Lithuania)

We are entering a new era in which an increasing number of individuals rely on AI chatbots and agents for information, advice, and even emotional support. Furthermore, there is growing discourse around the leaders of AI companies aiming to win the race to create an omniscient, omnipotent, and omnipresent AI “god” that could influence governance and politics. This raises the question of what the role of AI professionals is in this new era, where old gods are being replaced by technological ones. The goal of this presentation is to discuss the most recent data on AI anxiety, AI ambivalence, and related psychological challenges associated with the adoption of AI systems. Povilas Godliauskas will also provide psychological tools and techniques to help attendees maintain purpose and mental health in the face of these new psychological and societal challenges.

Architecting for <25ms Agentic Resumes at Blaxel
By Vikram Vaswani Developer Advocate (India)

Complex agentic systems can often chain dozens, or even hundreds, of sequential tool calls to complete a task. Near-instant resume performance is therefore a critical requirement for agentic systems running across multiple regions.Traditional containers provide speed but not enough isolation. Full virtual machines (VMs) provide isolation but are too slow for ephemeral, per-task execution. When an agent needs to use a sandbox to execute code or access a filesystem, waiting seconds for a container or full VM boot can damage the user experience.This session dives into the systems engineering behind Blaxel’s “perpetual sandboxes,” isolated compute environments that start and stop almost instantly and maintain state between shutdowns. Vikram Vaswani will explore how building an “agent-native” control plane using Kubernetes, Firecracker, and Virtual Kubelet allows for sub-25 ms resume times.This architecture lets Blaxel sandboxes start in under 25 ms and remain on standby when not in use, eliminating cold starts without complex orchestration. It also provides airtight isolation and secure compute environments for agents to autonomously and safely run arbitrary commands and code.Key Takeaways* Understand how to build agent-native infrastructure on Kubernetes. * Understand why cold starts severely degrade agentic user experience (UX) and throughput. * Learn how sandboxes combine VM-level isolation with container-like responsiveness.Audience* AI application developers building or integrating high-frequency agents on Kubernetes. * Architects and site reliability engineers (SREs) interested in new patterns that balance performance, security, and operational simplicity at scale. * Platform and DevOps engineers responsible for building Kubernetes platforms with isolation, startup latency, and multi-region execution.

How to Evaluate LLM Apps and AI Agents Before They Reach Production
By Eugene Sergueev Director of Engineering at Flo Health Inc (UK)

AI prototypes are easy to demo and surprisingly hard to trust. A copilot gives a convincing answer, an AI agent completes a workflow once, and a prompt looks better after a few tweaks - but how can a team know whether the system actually improved? How can it catch regressions, measure quality, control cost, and decide whether a new version is ready for production?In this practical session, Eugene Sergueev shows a step-by-step evaluation playbook for large language model (LLM) applications and AI agents. The talk focuses on moving from demo-driven AI development to a repeatable engineering process with real-world cases, quality rubrics, baselines, evaluation runs, thresholds, release gates, and production feedback loops.The session walks through a lightweight reference architecture that teams can adopt without building a large evaluation platform first. Eugene explains how to collect 20–50 representative real-world cases, define what “good” and “bad” mean, create a golden dataset, compare prompt, model, and agent versions, and detect regressions before they reach users.The talk also covers where rule-based checks, human review, and LLM-as-a-judge approaches work well - and where they fail. Eugene discusses how teams can use shadow runs, A/B tests, expert corrections, and production feedback to improve AI systems in small, measurable steps.Attendees will leave with a practical framework they can reuse in their own teams: an evaluation loop, a quality rubric structure, a release-readiness checklist, and a reference architecture for evaluating LLM-powered workflows and AI agents.The session is designed for engineers, AI practitioners, product engineering leaders, and platform teams who have already seen impressive AI demos and now need a way to make AI systems reliable, measurable, and safe enough for real production use.Additional relevant information:This is not a vendor or platform demo. The session focuses on practical engineering patterns that can be applied across different AI stacks: internal copilots, LLM-powered product features, document question-answering (QA) systems, AI-assisted development workflows, and tool-using agents.The talk is structured as a step-by-step implementation guide and includes:a lightweight evaluation loop for LLM apps and agents; an example structure for a golden dataset; a quality rubric for AI outputs; examples of metrics and thresholds; a release-readiness checklist; common anti-patterns when teams evaluate AI manually; guidance on where human review, automated checks, and LLM-based graders should be used.

Europe's AI Deployment Gap: Moving Sovereign and Industrial AI from Pilots to Production
By Klemensas Mecejus Executive Director at AI71 (UAE)

Klemensas Mecejus will present a practical case study session on why Europe's next AI race is not about model announcements, but about production workflows. Drawing on AI71 deployment work across government, construction, defense, telecom, and regulated enterprise sectors, the session explains how leaders move from pilots to governed, secure, and measurable AI operations. It covers workflow ownership, data access, cybersecurity, privacy, model risk approval, adoption, value capture, and the operating model required to industrialize sovereign and enterprise AI. Attendees will leave with a deployment checklist for selecting high-value workflows, preparing data and controls, aligning business and technical owners, and measuring whether AI is creating operational value rather than just producing demos.

Simplifying AI Complexity: Meet Naira, Your AI Engineering Hub
By Max Körbächer Chief Technology Advisor at Liquid Reply (Germany)

System landscapes are becoming increasingly complex. Teams place layer upon layer, abstracting away and hiding complexity. However, this creates new complexities that put engineering teams under significant strain and consume their mental capacity.AI does not fix this because it has to run somewhere. And it comes with its own complex ecosystem of tools needed to bring AI to life.In this session, Max Körbächer will introduce Naira, an open-source AI Engineering Hub that connects models, datasets, inference endpoints, MCP integrations, AI gateways, observability, documentation, and plugins across existing tools, so teams can understand, govern, and operate their AI landscape. Funded by the EU IPCEI-CIS initiative, it seamlessly integrates into Europe's initiatives for digital sovereignty, AI empowerment, and strengthening transparency in AI usage.Through an extensive plugin system, Naira is designed to connect with anything needed to build an AI-serving, tuning, and operating platform. It aims to reduce AI engineers' cognitive load, simplify workflows by reducing tool jumps, and provide transparency across an ever-growing landscape.

Give Life to Your Organization and Superpower Your Team
By Stefan Chiriacescu Co-founder of eCommerce Today Agency (Romania)

Most organizations have given their people artificial intelligence (AI) tools and called it a strategy. The licenses are paid for. The output is generic. The transformation never came. The missing piece is not a better tool. It is organizational voice - the ability to encode who an organization is, how it thinks, and what it stands for directly into every AI assistant its team uses daily.Stefan Chiriacescu built that system from scratch. The result: an 11× revenue increase, a team that moved from execution to strategy, and a 30-person organization operating with the output of an organization three times its size.In this session, Stefan Chiriacescu will show attendees the live architecture behind that outcome - how to give AI systems a real organizational identity, how to map intelligence across every department, and how to turn every employee into the most capable version of themselves.Not a concept. Not a demo. A working system attendees can replicate by Monday.
