Joint Meetup: Practical AI For Enterprise Developer Workflows

AI is transforming how we build, ship, and maintain software—but beyond the hype, what actually works in real-world enterprise environments? Join us for an evening exploring practical AI applications that are changing developer workflows today.

Co-hosted by ReactATL, Atlanta JavaScript, Modern Web ATL, VueJS ATL, REFACTR.TECH — because AI impacts every corner of our Atlanta tech community.

We're bringing together leaders from Microsoft, Nx, and This Dot Labs who are shaping how AI integrates into enterprise development:

Harald Kirschner- Principal Product Manager, Microsoft
From tools to capability—what actually drives AI adoption
AI deployment is easy. Adoption is hard. I'll talk about what separates organizations seeing real gains from those with flat adoption curves: context engineering, champion networks, and treating AI fluency as a system you build—not a skill you teach.

Jeff Cross- Co-Founder & CEO, Nx
Your Agents Can Do More. Your Architecture Should Let Them
AI coding agents can now implement entire features across multiple services, write tests, and iterate to green, autonomously. So why aren't they? The bottleneck isn't the agents. It's your repo structure. Most organizations run hundreds of repositories organized around team boundaries, not around how features actually ship. Every repo boundary is a wall your agents can't see through, forcing humans back into the loop to coordinate PRs, sequence merges, and monitor CI across codebases. In this talk, we'll explore how Synthetic Monorepos give AI agents org-wide code intelligence without the years-long migration, how self-healing CI keeps agent sessions uninterrupted when builds break, and why the organizations that remove these structural barriers in 2026 will compound their advantage every quarter.

Tracy Lee- CEO, This Dot Labs
Elliott Fouts- CTO, This Dot Labs

You'll hear diverse perspectives on AI tooling, workflow integration, and real-world implementation challenges. Expect practical insights you can apply to your work, not just theoretical possibilities.
