**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.

A welfare state takes responsibility for its people and supports them when in need. When costs are rising, but budgets aren’t, government needs to find efficiency gains to maintain social protection levels. A government-commissioned report recently recommended ways to modernise social and welfare services, making them more people-friendly and less bureaucratic. Meanwhile, small and large projects are underway to make benefits services more fair and easier to navigate, and to make the state overall more equitable. At our March meetup, we will hear about what a modern, digitally transformed welfare state looks like. We will welcome the following speakers: * Florian Theissing, Agora Digitale Transformation * Björn Mohr, Technologiestiftung Berlin * Anja Mayr & Jakob Häußermann, DigitalService des Bundes CityLAB Berlin hosts the event in their stunning 1920s space, a former airport building. All presentations will be given in English. Questions in the later discussion part can be raised either in English or German.

The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 **Abstract** Web Forms gave .NET developers a powerful abstraction for building reusable UI controls long before design systems were a thing. Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively. This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. We’ll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from server‑driven controls, and why they’re becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether you’re maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, you’ll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standards‑based way. **YouTube Link** TBA
