The Reasoning Layer: Architecting Multi-Agent Support Systems with Google Cloud
Hey there, awesome people! đ We've got something exciting to share with youâour next big event!
When? May 5th, 6:30 PM Where? Autogrill headquarters, Strada 5, Rozzano (MI)
Join us at the Innovation Hub and the Factory Food Designers, the beating heart of gastronomic innovation for the Avolta/Autogrill Group. It's a true idea incubator, where chefs, pastry chefs, nutritionists, designers, food bloggers and technologists meet every day to anticipate trends and bring new flavors, products and concepts to lifeâthe same ones that end up in Autogrill stores around the world.
The space is organized into dedicated areas, each with its own specific function:
the Food Hall, designed for meetings, events and coworking sessions
the Food Academy, where staff are trained and show cooking sessions with top chefs take place
Area 51, the space for free-form experimentation, which also houses a small High-Tech Restaurant with table service and a chef experience table
the Concept & Food Tech Lab, where Autogrill's main formats are prototyped and tested before hitting the road
Here are some interesting links about the venue and sponsors:

Now, here's the scoop: We're diving into a time when software isn't just following orders anymoreâit's thinking, planning, and playing it smart. Enter AI agents! These are like the new superheroesâsmart systems that see what's up around them, make cool decisions, and go for it to hit their goals. So, what's in it for a food & travel retail company like Autogrill? Let's find out together!
In our chat, we'll break down AI agents into real-life examples straight from Autogrill's turfâfrom the highway pit stops to our Factory Food Designers innovation lab right here in Rozzano. And guess what? We're rolling out Google's Agent Development Kit (ADK), this open-source mastermind that helps you whip up, run, and show off multi-agent systems on Google Cloud. Oh, and we'll even throw a live demo on stage!
Please note: an additional registration will be required for venue access and will be requested from registered attendees
See you on the 5th! đ

**Benvenuti al Charlatan Circus!**
Vladimir Vorovich & Madame OlgĂ , eccentrici saltimbanchi e irriverenti ciarlatani, sono pronti a tutto pur di riuscire a vendere la loro ultima invenzione: **âOLIO 32â** lâelisir miracoloso che tutto può e tutto fa. Una pozione unica e prodigiosa dalle mille proprietĂ , capace di curare ogni male â calvizie, reumatismi o inquietudini dellâanima â , di farvi divenire lâuomo piĂš forte del mondo e di donarvi lâeterna giovinezza. Da bere o da annusare, la pozione miracolosa vi regalerĂ la felicitĂ e ogni vostro desiderio realizzerĂ !
Per dimostrarvelo, Vladimir&Olga vi porteranno nel loro circo delle meraviglie dove maghi, giocolieri e persino la donna barbuta vi ammalieranno e stupiranno. Ma sin dallâinizio non tutto andrĂ come programmato tra fraintendimenti, litigi, miserabili fallimenti e inaspettati successi da cui neppure il pubblico sarĂ risparmiato!
Uno spettacolo tout public provocatorio, popolare, coinvolgente e trasversale. La tradizione del teatro di strada si intreccia con un linguaggio scenico unico, frutto del dialogo e rapporto tra i due protagonisti: il Bianco Madame OlgĂ , clownessa provocatoria, dalla lingua affilata e dalla risposta sempre pronta, e Vladimir Vorovich, augusto irriverente e naif, capace di sorprendenti fallimenti e inaspettati successi!
Entrambi giocolieri âquasi al pari di Rastelliâ (almeno cosĂŹ dicono loroâŚ), maghi (quando lâillusione funziona) ma soprattutto (e su questo non câè dubbio) autentici ciarlatani pronti a tutto pur di conquistare il pubblico e vendere il loro miracoloso Olio 32, elisir miracoloso che tutto può, tutto fa⌠e tutti vogliano a fine spettacolo!
*Un mix esplosivo di comicitĂ e interazione con il pubblico, nello stile dei saltimbanchi di un tempo e delle antiche fiere popolari.*
**Produzione:** Auriga Teatro
**Di e con:** Veronica Del Vecchio e Andrea Tettamanti**.**
**Durata:** 60 minuti
**Genere:** varietĂ comico, clownerie, giocoleria (foot juggling e devil stick), visual comedy e interazione con il pubblico.

CBusData - Practical AI for Power BI Developers
Practical AI for Power BI Developers
A year ago, âagentic AIâ was mostly hype for Power BI teams. Today, it deserves your undivided attention. For Power BI pros, there is now a real opportunity to reduce repetitive development work, accelerate delivery, and help developers do more, but only when strong DataOps practices are in place to make AI workflows effective.
This session is a no-nonsense introduction to effective AI patterns for Power BI and Fabric development. Along the way, we will make sense of the growing pile of terminology, including skills, plugins, hooks, and MCP. You will see examples of how modern AI tooling can help with development tasks across Power BI and Fabric, along with the prerequisites, guardrails, and DataOps principles needed to use it responsibly.
Whether you're burned out on AI hype or already using Copilot CLI daily, this session will show you the foundations that are finally making AI-assisted development genuinely useful.

Session Abstract
### Data Cleansing using Data Bricks
Machine Learning is highly dependent on adequate data. Not only does quantity matter, but more importantly quality. In this session weâll cover how to build a custom automated process using Data Bricks. This will provide methods for cleaning data in a data lake using functions in Azure.
\*Please note, that we will be using Microsoft Teams for the online portion of this meeting. You may want to join a few minutes early to ensure you do not have any issues. If you are attending in person, there are large TVs at the office, and you do not need to bring a laptop or use Teams.
Building Scalable Customer Identity Resolution Pipelines on AWS Using AI
Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs.
This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context.
We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing.
