**Sažetak:** Digitalna transformacija ulazi u novu fazu u kojoj umjetna inteligencija i alati poput Microsoft Copilota u Microsoft 365 okruženju postaju ključni akceleratori produktivnosti i kvalitete odlučivanja. Predavanje se zasniva na višegodišnjem iskustvu implementacije digitalne transformacije, s fokusom na stvaranje mjerljive vrijednosti kroz primjenu AI-ja u svakodnevnom radu menadžmenta i zaposlenika. Kroz niz primjera predavanje će objasniti važnost inovacija i pravilnog odabira ključnih tehnologija u kreiranju novih poslovnih modela kao osnove svake digitalne transformacije. Koristeći konkretne primjere iz prakse predavač će objasniti kako Copilot, analitika poslovnih podataka i cloud tehnologije podržavaju donošenje odluka temeljenih na podacima, optimizaciju procesa i unaprjeđenje korisničkog iskustva. Sudionici će steći uvid u ključne stupove transformacije – poslovni model, podatke i agilnu organizaciju – te kako uprava može voditi promjene i mjeriti uspjeh kroz KPI-jeve i povrat ulaganja u razdoblju od 6 do 18 mjeseci. Naravno, možete se zapitati: Što ako ne započnemo digitalnu transformaciju? Imamo li izbora? Na to i ostala pitanja pronađite odgovore na predavanju! Predavanje je nastalo na temelju iskustva tima stručnjaka za digitalnu transformaciju koje je predvodio predavač stečeno u provedbi projekata digitalne transformacije u tvrtkama u regiji, ali i kao poduzetnika i predsjednika uprave IT tvrtke koja kontinuirano inovira i ima više od 120 međunarodnih nagrada za inovacije u IT-u. **O predavaču:** Tomislav Bronzin jedan od samo 165 nositelja prestižne titule Microsoft Regional Director, kao i titule Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (M365). Kao osnivač tvrtke CITUS i inovator osvojio je više od 120 međunarodnih nagrada za inovacije, te posjeduje šest patenata u područjima primjene umjetne inteligencije, pomiješane stvarnosti i cloud tehnologija. Svoje stručno znanje je dopunio iskustvom rada na globalnim i EU projektima u više od 40 država gdje je kao konzultant i voditelj projekata u proteklih 25 godina pomagao vladama, IT asocijacijama, upravama tvrtki i razvojnim timovima postizanje poslovnih rezultata, pretvarajući tehnološke inovacije u stratešku prednost, mjerljive rezultate i održive organizacijske promjene. Tomislav vješto pomaže u projektiranju i implementaciji umjetne inteligencije na način da demonstrira moć AI koja povećava ljudski potencijal, potičući donošenje odluka, produktivnost i suradnju, a što rezultira poboljšanjem uspješnosti organizacija. Stručnjak je u kreiranju strategije implementacije umjetne inteligencije, posebno usvajanjem tehnologija poput Microsoft 365 i Copilota, Power Platform i rješenja temeljena na Azure-u kako bi ostvario poslovni utjecaj. Njegov angažman u IT i poslovnoj zajednici ubrzali su digitalni rast organizacija u čitavoj Europi. Posebno je aktivan u Hrvatskoj, gdje kao potpredsjednik Udruženja za IT Hrvatske gospodarske komore zastupa poslovnu zajednicu i promiče utjecajne digitalne inicijative kao član Nacionalnog vijeća za digitalnu transformaciju Republike Hrvatske. Čest je govornik na međunarodnim konferencijama, viši predavač na Algebra Bernays University, te autor više od 40 znanstveno-istraživačkih rada s više od 120 citata. Kao član upravnog odbora Hrvatske udruge poslodavaca član je Nacionalnog vijeća za ljudskih potencijala Republike Hrvatske – Sektorskog vijeća za elektrotehniku i računarstvo.

Banke rijetko kada drastično mijenjaju svoje sustave, a pogotovo same načine rada unutar timova. No, Erste se nedavno odlučio upravo na takav poduhvat koji im je na kraju poboljšao timsku suradnju i unaprijedio vođenje projekata. Promjena je počela na razini samih fundamenata *project managementa* pa su tako implementirali “*Erste Large Scale*” agilni model, a organiziran je prema uzoru na poznati Spotify model. Temelj tog pristupa leži u organiziranju manjih, podosta samostalnih i autonomnih jedinica koji se nazivaju *tribeovi* i *squadovi*, a zajedno čine nešto veće jedinice koje nazivamo *guildovi* i *chapteri*. Pristup je u praksi doveo do velikih poboljšanja u vođenju projekata, ali su cijelu priču morali upotpuniti i s tehničke strane. Kako su do tada sve vodili uz kombinaciju **Azure Boardsa** i **CA PPM-a**, što je bilo daleko od adekvatnog pristupa, odlučili su se na prelazak na jedinstveni **Jira Cloud** sustav, a plodove istog su počeli ubirati nedugo nakon migracije. Kako je cijeli proces tekao, koliko je bilo zahtjevno migrirati sve podatke i entitete u Atlassianovo okruženje te što su naučili iz ovako kompleksnog projekta, saznat će **21.5.** na drugom ovogodišnjem Atlassian Community Eventu u Zagrebu. Osim **Željke Straznicky**, **Lucije Marić** i **Tomislava Tobijasa**, na eventu će se pridružiti i brojni drugi sudionici projekta od kojih ćete moći saznati sve što vas zanima vezano uz ovu veliku promjenu unutar Erste banke.

Each session opens with a Soulbits oracle image setting the tone for the gathering we will move through. We will come together to honor the natural rhythms of rooting, rising, releasing, and receiving; the cycles that shape the soul’s journey. Through the four pillars of being: mindset, movement, connection & nourishment, we will create a space where imagery, sensation, and community weave together. Where the body becomes the guide, images act as mirrors, and the soul speaks. This circle is about noticing what rises, honoring what’s true, and reconnecting with the parts of yourself ready to be seen. This is a space to gather your scattered pieces, soften your body, and return to your truth with community by your side. Soulbits Circle is a reminder that every fragment of your story, every soulbit, belongs. Together we weave them into the blooming wholeness that you are. *Energy Exchange: 1-group $20-40 or 6-group $115* *Payment Options: Venmo or Cash* **Please RSVP to [Caitlynn](https://kalikwellnesswithin.org/) via** **email @ [kalik.wellnesswithin@gmail.com](mailto:kalik.wellnesswithin@gmail.com)** **text @ ‪(614) 407-4021‬** 💫

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. **SPEAKER BIO** Mosaic Syed is a Senior Data Engineering and Cloud Solutions Architect with over 20 years of experience designing and delivering scalable, secure, and high-performance data solutions across global enterprise environments. https://www.linkedin.com/in/mosaic-basha-syed-92300856 **CALL FOR SPEAKERS** Learn more: [https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/](https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/) **THANK YOU** *VEEAM* for hosting our meetup!
