ABOUT THIS EVENT

Most enterprises have run AI pilots. Far fewer have agents running in production, and the blocker is rarely the model. It is the platform underneath: legacy applications, fragmented data, and no clear rules for what an agent is allowed to do.

Technology leaders now face practical decisions. Which workflows do you hand to agents first? What do you modernize before agents can work on it? How do you restructure engineering teams when agents write, test and ship code alongside developers?

This dinner, hosted by Applogika in partnership with AWS, brings together senior technology leaders to compare what is working in production today.

Key discussion topics:

  • Moving agents from pilot to production: which workflows are ready for agents, and what separates projects that ship from those that stall.

  • Modernizing the platform underneath: how legacy applications and data block agentic AI, and what to fix first on AWS.

  • Restructuring engineering teams: where agents augment developers today, which skills to hire or retrain for, and where human judgement stays in charge.

  • Governing agents at scale: controlling what agents can access and do, tracking their cost, and keeping production systems resilient as agents take on more work.

WHY ATTEND

Common Sense Events uses a conversational, story-telling approach designed for peer learning. Every participant’s voice shapes the discussion – no slides, no pitch decks.

This is an executive peer group meet for 10 – 12 senior leaders. Participation in this in-person networking session is at no cost for qualified attendees.
