**Session 1:**
*Speaker:* Beatriz del Saz
*Title:* Bring it on! How Wigo4it stays independent and agnostic in the Azure cloud

As a developer, you want freedom to build. In a world where cloud providers are increasingly trying to exert influence, Wigo4it consciously chooses autonomy. We share our approach to remaining independent while using the Azure cloud, and how we design, build, and think in a cloud-agnostic way. It’s not a flawless success story, there are challenges and trade-offs, but it offers an honest look behind the scenes. What works, what doesn't, and where we’re still making progress. You’ll walk away with insights you can start applying right away.

**Session 2:**
*Speaker:* John Bruin
*Title:* Bring real-world AI scenarios to life in .NET with the Microsoft Agent Framework and Azure AI Foundry

The Microsoft Agent Framework provides a flexible, open-source foundation for building AI agents and multi-agent workflows in both .NET and Python.

We explore its core concepts and demonstrate how easily it connects with Azure AI Foundry to access a wide range of Azure-hosted AI models.
This technical overview includes practical code examples in C# and shows how to quickly get started applying the Agent Framework to bring real-world AI scenarios to life in your own apps.
