A few weeks after the industry's flagship events, GitHub Universe and Microsoft Ignite, we are bringing together developers, engineering leaders, architects and AI practitioners for a curated recap of the most significant announcements, emerging trends and practical lessons from both conferences. As organisations move beyond experimentation and into enterprise-scale adoption, AI is fundamentally changing how software is designed, built, secured and operated. This event will explore what those changes mean for engineering teams today and how organisations can prepare for the next evolution of the Software Development Life Cycle.
