🎯 Focus Sessions: Slot 1

This is your chance to dive deep into a specific topic. Whether you’re interested in cutting-edge tech, leadership, or personal growth, these sessions will be your treasure hunt for knowledge and inspiration.

Riding the AI Tide – Who rises and who is left behind?

As AI reshapes the workforce at unprecedented speed, the real question isn’t just how fast we move — but who moves with us.​

AI holds extraordinary potential to unlock productivity, innovation and growth. Yet without intention, it can just as easily reinforce bias, deepen inequality and widen the gap between those inside and outside the labor market.​

In Sweden today, highly skilled individuals, including newcomers with advanced technical backgrounds, remain excluded from tech careers. At the same time, companies face a growing AI skills shortage.​

The paradox is clear.Talent exists.Access does not.

We want to hear from you! This session invites you to confront that tension head-on and asks what it will take to ensure the rising AI tide becomes a force for inclusion, not exclusion.

Can we rely on technology in an uncertain world?

When airports shut down because of drones, foreign fighters and ships intrude on national territory, infrastructure gets sabotaged and GPS systems have disturbances, we rely on technology to solve it. At the same time, conflicts flare in several countries and nations equip themselves to create safety.

But can technology really keep us safe – and what kind of technology is needed in an uncertain world. What is required to create technology needed to protect people and societies tomorrow that must to withstand extreme temperatures, conditions and environments – and who can create it?

How Visma democratises data at scale with internal AI agents

Visma is on a journey toward AI-native product development—a fundamental shift in how modern software companies build, scale, and make product decisions. In this session, we share how Visma is rethinking access to data by putting AI directly into the hands of employees across the organisation.

Let me introduce DataGPT, a secure internal AI agent built to bridge the gap between complex data in BigQuery and the people who need fast, reliable answers. You’ll get an inside look at how we designed an AI system that understands Visma’s internal data structures, navigates multiple data sources, and delivers trustworthy insights—while meeting strict security requirements and ensuring data never leaves Visma.

By combining multiple domain-specific AI agents with a single orchestrating agent, we’ve built a scalable, internal product that adapts to each employee’s question and context. Join this session to get insight and inspiration into what democratising data across a large organisation can look like, and gain a glimpse into AI-native product development in practice

Women Powering the AI Ready Enterprise: Strategy, Foundations, and the Future of Work

This session provides a holistic look at what it takes for organisations to become truly AI powered, moving far beyond pilots to realise meaningful, enterprise wide value. It brings together the business, technology, and human dimensions of AI transformation in one cohesive narrative—showing how companies are achieving tangible ROI, modernising data and governance foundations, and designing secure, scalable architectures that enable responsible AI at scale.

At the same time, it explores how the rise of AI is reshaping work itself, prompting leaders to rethink processes, decision making, and the skills their workforce needs to thrive. By integrating strategic impact, technical readiness, and human adaptation, this theme offers a complete view of how organisations can embed AI into their core and build sustainable competitive advantage.

SEO Is No Longer Enough – Are You Visible to AI?

As users increasingly turn to AI-driven tools instead of traditional search engines, your website and content must be optimized for AI visibility. In this session, we explore Generative Engine Optimization (GEO), why AI findability matters for your business, and the practical steps you can take to ensure your digital presence is ready for the next era of search.

From Vision to Business Impact: How we built a Design System that Elevates Experiences

At Ziklo Bank, our design system Zest has become a catalyst for collaboration, speed and brand consistency. By tightly connecting Figma and code, we’ve removed handoff friction, reduced rework and built a shared workflow where designers and developers move faster together. Join us to discover how a design system can become a strategic accelerator—driving efficiency, alignment, and measurable business value, even in the most complex environments.

Driving clarity in regulated AI driven systems

We work in systems where getting things wrong has real consequences, where language can cause harm, and where a single click can trigger investigation, denial, or risk. And where AI increasingly shapes how people are assessed, guided, or stopped. In these environments, pressure is not theoretical. It is built into the product itself.

For a long time, pressure has been treated as something to endure. Something to push through in the name of delivery or scale. But pressure reveals what is missing: where clarity breaks down, where responsibility blurs, and where people are left to navigate complex systems without enough support. This talk shares stories from inside highly regulated, AI-driven products where rules shift across markets, decisions must be explainable, and automation operates at scale.

We explore moments where systems, uncertainty, and human vulnerability collide, and how clarity becomes the difference between friction and trust, protection and harm. We’ll look at how leadership often shows up without formal authority, through judgment, language, and timing. Through small but critical decisions like reframing a problem, slowing something down, or choosing words that hold up under scrutiny, especially in environments where responsibility is high but ownership is shared.

This is not a talk about tools or frameworks. It is about learning how to move responsibly within constraints. How to make decisions when the stakes are real. And how pressure, when we learn to read it, becomes direction rather than paralysis. Because the future of technology will not be shaped by those who move fastest, but by those who know how to keep moving under pressure without losing clarity, judgment, or care.

🎯 Focus Session: Slot 2

Round two of focus sessions is here! Whether you’re expanding on what you learned earlier or exploring a new topic, these sessions offer a more hands-on experience and fresh insights.

Beyond Tech in Turbulent Times: Turning Uncertainties into Future Opportunities

We’re living in a moment of historic technological acceleration – a world where technology is no longer just a tool, but the arena in which nations compete, collaborate, and redraw the balance of power.

AI, data sovereignty, critical infrastructure, and cybersecurity have become the strategic resources of our era. Finding the right macro, partnership, and geopolitical balance will define the future landscape.

In this session, together with leading industry voices, we’ll take the pulse of today’s technological landscape and explore the mindsets, skillsets, and toolsets we need to navigate this reality – and turn challenges into opportunities.

Leading Through Complexity: Code, Adoption, Courage, Transformation

Real change doesn’t start with a rewrite. Three Sandvik engineers share how they improve existing solutions step-by-step while making AI useful in daily work. Through practical architecture updates and everyday usage, they show how teams build trust, speed adoption, and turn AI from demos into real productivity.

AI Without Fear: Building Trust and Transforming Bias into Breakthroughs

What happens when women use AI less than men?
What happens when women hold higher standards while men adopt AI tools earlier and more freely?

AI adoption isn’t evenly distributed, and we risk creating a future where productivity, career opportunities, and technical confidence drift apart – not because of capability, but because of trust.

Today, a clear trust gap shapes how women and men approach AI.

And when that caution turns into avoidance, the cost is real: slower learning, reduced visibility, and less influence in how decisions are made in an AI-shaped workplace.

This talk combines three things:
what the AI trust gap looks like in practice, and how to design AI assistants that earn trust – by being verifiable, transparent, and genuinely useful, and how to strengthen your career in a world where the courage to try matters more than knowing everything from the start.

We’ll walk through a practical trustworthy tool: an architecture AI assistant that makes complex enterprise landscapes understandable, explaining systems, mapping connections, and helping to create solid documentation, so you can show up confident, even in unfamiliar domains.

This is your inflection point: transforming bias into breakthroughs – not by being fearless, but by acting smart in the middle of the unknown.

Trust in an AI driven world

In the focus session, Trust in an AI driven world, Rebecka Ångström explores how both trust and distrust shape how we interact with AI, and why trust in the technology alone is not enough. As AI becomes embedded in society, she highlights how shifting trust dynamics between people, organizations, and systems will fundamentally impact how we live, work, and make decisions.

A must-listen for anyone interested in the human side of AI and what it means for our shared future
