**Sponsored by:** ***\- ACP*** ***\- TD SYNNEX*** ***\- Technopark Winterthur*** **Partner-led and partner-branded by**: ***Microsoft*** Speakers: * Firas Cheaib (ACP) – When Models Become the Commodity * Victor Chibotaru(LogicStar AI) – Shipping Faster, Drowning Sooner Abstract: When Models Become the Commodity ACP Engineering works extensively with LLMs to write production code across a small team. What makes that work is not the models, but the groundwork laid before them: a portfolio of Python projects sharing the same tooling, structure, tests, CI, and linters, the same conditions that already made the codebase easy for humans to navigate. That foundation is what powers the current build of ACP-M, ACP's industrial IoT platform for manufacturing customers, and an early agentic-loop prototype now running internally. The next step is enabling customers to automate their own operations the same way. Doing that requires the same kind of preparation on their side: turning fragmented operational data into knowledge graphs, unified namespaces, and typed semantic layers, so that agents act on information that is short, focused, and reliable. Once that environment exists, the model becomes a commodity. What matters is enterprise processes and domain knowledge, not which model happens to be in fashion that quarter. Attendees will leave with a concrete way to assess whether their own environment is ready for agents at all, and what it takes to get there -- Shipping Faster, Drowning Sooner AI ships your features faster than ever, but it also ships bugs faster than ever. Code got cheap, maintenance didn't: customer complaints stack up, Sentry alerts overflow, and triaging the pile is still as expensive as it ever was. I'll show how LogicStar finds bugs across your Sentry, Jira and codebase, separates signal from noise, and helps your team fix issues that matter.

Un encuentro para mujeres que desean crear y compartir experiencias auténticas con otras mujeres. Artistas, creadoras, poetas, facilitadoras y mujeres con proyectos o ideas que quieren expresarse desde un lugar más humano y consciente. Vivimos un momento donde las personas ya no conectan solo con lo que se ofrece, sino con la historia, la energía y la verdad de quien está detrás. Ya no consumimos por consumir. Queremos sentir la esencia de quien crea, la historia detrás de lo que vemos. Lo que nos mueve es compartir con otras mujeres aquello que más amamos hacer, despertando en ellas inspiración, conexión y nuevas posibilidades. Porque cuando una mujer habla desde lo que la apasiona, conecta desde un lenguaje más profundo: el lenguaje del corazón. 🌿 El encuentro Nos reunimos en el Jardín Botánico de Zürich, un espacio natural que invita a la presencia, la escucha y la conexión real. Este encuentro forma parte de Creadoras, un círculo donde mujeres co-crean experiencias vivas para otras mujeres. Nos reunimos para: * conocernos como mujeres * compartir lo que somos y lo que estamos creando * conectar desde la autenticidad * explorar futuras colaboraciones creativas No es networking tradicional.

In this session we'll explore strategies to protect our codebases through unit and integration testing, documentation, and code review along with additional ways of providing context and guard rails to our AI agents as they carry out the work we've assigned them to do. By the time we're done, you'll have a firm grasp of the problem and understand some helpful options for protecting your codebase from vibe coding mishaps getting YOLOed into prod. **YouTube Link** TBD
