**ESMT Insight Hour with Dr. Martin Hofmann** **Schedule:** 5:30 p.m. - Registration opens 6:00 p.m. - Welcome from host, ESMT Berlin 6:05 p.m. - Talk of Martin Hofmann 6:30 p.m. - Discussion and Q&A 7:00 p.m. - Networking, drinks and nibbles will be provided 8:30 p.m. - Close The question is no longer whether AI will transform organizations. The question is how you design a company where humans and autonomous agents work side by side. The stakes are high: firms that fail to get the balance right risk losing control, trust, and competitive advantage as work becomes increasingly agentic. The core challenge? Design hybrid teams, governance, and leadership so agents can carry workload while experts carry judgment, and the organization learns continuously from both. In this ESMT Insight Hour, [Dr. Martin Hofmann](https://www.linkedin.com/in/martin-hofmann-4b90405/), author of ***The Agentic Enterprise***, will present insights from his new book and introduce a new business operating model built around hybrid teams of domain experts and AI agents that sense, decide, learn, and act autonomously. Drawing on the Agentic Enterprise Framework™, he will show how enterprises move beyond automation into true autonomy and why trust becomes the organization’s new operating system. You’ll gain insight into: * How to architect hybrid teams of humans and AI agents, and the roles each should play * Why trust, rather than rules, must become the organization’s operating system * Practical leadership, governance, and scaling strategies for agentic organizations Join us to find out what it really takes to lead, scale, and orchestrate intelligence in the era of autonomous agents.

How to get there: Travel via the Bahnhof Zoo and Ernst-Reuter-Platz - use the subway U2 or the Bus M45. Welcome and Introduction to the Berlin AI Guild Dinner by **[Chris Armbruster](https://www.linkedin.com/in/chrisarmbruster/)**, MD at [AI Guild](https://theguild.ai/). **19.00 Technical Debt when Vibe Coding** **[Dishu Bagga](https://www.linkedin.com/in/dishu-bagga-632236163/)**, Software Engineering, Deutsche Bank. AI assistants, scaffolding tools, and templates let us ship software faster than ever. You prompt, paste, and move on. Most of the time, it works. But while everything appears smooth, technical debt quietly accumulates. Modern tools optimize for speed—not architecture. Layers blur, boundaries erode, and structural decisions get locked in long before anyone notices. In this talk, we’ll use real examples and live coding to show how AI-accelerated development can produce clean-looking code but fragile systems. Small shortcuts compound. Complexity hides in plain sight. The goal is not to criticize AI tooling—but to remind us: Generated code still carries architectural consequences. Speed is easy. Sustainable systems require intent. **19.30 Agentic AI in a Global Corporate: The first iteration** **[Dijle Kara](https://www.linkedin.com/in/dijlekara/)**, AI Hub Product Manager at Henkel What happens when autonomous AI agents meet the complexity of a global enterprise? From legacy systems to governance and scale, the first deployments reveal both promise and friction. What actually works in production? Where do agents fail? And how do organizations adapt when software begins to act autonomously? **20.00 Announcement of the Berlin Exhibition Pix2GenAI** **[Dr. Kristian Rother](https://www.linkedin.com/in/kristian-rother/)**, Python Developer, Data Scientist, and Trainer Code meets art. *Pix2GenAI* showcases computer-generated artworks created with algorithms, mathematics, and AI models—exploring the space between handcrafted code and generative intelligence.

Builders, creators, architects, admins, consultants - come one, come all. This one's for you. We're bringing a little friendly competition to the Columbus ServiceNow community while highlighting the cool things people have built on the platform. Five presenters will take the stage to showcase something they've built, solved, designed, or imagined on the ServiceNow platform - and a panel of judges (plus YOU, our amazing audience) will score them live. So basically, America's Got Talent but make it ServiceNow's Got Talent. Bring a notepad if you'd like 'cause you'll definitely be learning something new. Each presenter gets 10 minutes max to wow the crowd with: • A demo • A real-world business solution • A bold idea • A UX transformation • Or a creative use of the platform Judging Criteria: 🏆 Business Value 🚀 Innovation ✨ User Experience This event is about celebrating ideas, sharing knowledge, and showing how ServiceNow can drive both business impact and meaningful user value. Come learn. Come support. Come get inspired. Refreshments and bites will be provided. And maybe next time… you’ll be on stage.

Private Group. Closed to the Public Knowing ourselves and understanding our abilities is the first step toward wielding our gifts with control and accuracy. In subsequent classes we will verify and hone our talents with activities and discussion. These are hands-on workshops and participation is expected. The goal of our series will be to develop expertise in areas of particular interest such as mediumship, channeling, divination, healing and, etc.. Our ultimate directions will be determined by class members as we evolve. I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia
