The agentic enterprise: 10x faster or left behind

Keynote by Job van den Berg

AI agents don't just generate anymore. They act. They execute entire workflows, take decisions and collaborate with each other and with your people. That changes how organizations work at the core: a team of fifteen becomes one orchestrator with fifteen agents, work that took weeks now takes an afternoon, and the org chart flattens from pyramid to network. Organizations that get this right don't become 10% faster. They become 10x faster.

The KPIs shift with it. Hours no longer measure capacity. Tokens, the compute your people put to work, become the metric of the future, right next to salaries on the P&L.

None of this is a vision. It's running in production today. The only question is whether your organization leads the shift or undergoes it.
Job brings the agentic enterprise to life on stage with working demos, fresh insights from Silicon Valley and China, and above all real life cases

Whenever things seem under control, you’re not going fast enough

Keynote by Robert Doornbos

Lessons from Formula 1 on Fintech, Data & High Performance

Formula 1 is one of the fastest-moving, most competitive and data-driven environments in the world. Every millisecond matters, and standing still simply isn’t an option. Success comes from combining technology, data, teamwork and human decision-making all while operating under extreme pressure.

The same principles increasingly apply to the world of finance and fintech. Technology, automation and real-time data are transforming the speed at which businesses operate and make financial decisions.

Drawing on his experience as a Formula 1 driver, entrepreneur, and F1 analyst, Robert will take the audience behind the scenes of F1, sharing how high-performance teams turn data into decisions, embrace innovation, and continuously push the limits of what's possible.

19:15 – 20:30
