### Making AI Agents Useful: Conversational Data Experiences with Microsoft Fabric and Copilot Studio

Speaker: Ajay Iyer, Principal Security Technical Architect, Microsoft

AI agents are everywhere, but how do organizations turn the concept into something useful, secure, and connected to real business data?

This session starts at Level 100 with a practical explanation of how organizations are thinking about AI agents and why conversational access to structured data is becoming a key enterprise scenario. We’ll then move progressively deeper into how Microsoft Fabric Data Agents can be used to ground AI experiences in trusted data and connect with Copilot Studio to create agents that end users can interact with through Microsoft 365.

By the end, we’ll reach Level 300 topics including architecture patterns, data grounding, security considerations, governance, and implementation design choices for building production-minded agents.
