**During the meetup, we will cover two exciting topics:**

**1\. Powering AI Capabilities with API Management and OpenAI API Integration**
Artificial intelligence (AI) has revolutionized the way we interact with technology and has become an integral part of modern applications. The OpenAI API provides developers with powerful AI capabilities, allowing them to build advanced AI applications with ease.

However, as the usage of AI grows, so does the need for scalable, performant, and secure API integrations. This is where API Management comes in. API Management (APIM) provides advanced features for managing and scaling API integrations.

In this talk, we will explore the benefits of integrating API Gateway (the main component of APIM) with the OpenAI API and how you can use it to create a more scalable, performant, and secure AI integration. From proxy caching to security features, we will cover everything you need to know to get started with this integration. Whether you're an AI developer or a DevOps professional, this session is your complete guide to creating a powerful and cost-effective AI integration.

**2\. Intelligent decision making with Power BI and Power Platform**
Business is looking for more automated, knowledge-based and actionable BI. Therefore it is not enough to create reports and hope users find needed information. Intelligent decision-making is an approach where several techniques are combined to provide recommendations in plain language, prepared using explainable rules or algorithms and connected with automated workflows to connect APIs or other interfaces. In this session, we will look at how it is possible to build intelligent decision-making solutions using the Microsoft Power Platform.

\* **Please note that space is limited, and only 40 spots are available.** Reserve your spot now by applying for this event here. You'll need to bring your ID card/passport/driving license to enter Accenture Baltics office on the day of the event.

All further information will be sent to your email 1-2 days before the meetup, so please check your inbox (and spam folder) for updates.

We're excited to see you soon in Latvia!
