AI-First Approach in Software Engineering and Development

In a world where AI adoption is becoming increasingly common across organizations of all sizes, even digitally mature companies often struggle to unlock the full potential of generative AI. Many face challenges when it comes to integrating AI into their software development processes and overall ways of working.
‍
Today’s speakers will explore three key questions:

Why?
Why should you embrace an AI-first approach to software development? We will discuss the business drivers, opportunities, and risks that make AI-first a necessity rather than a choice.
‍
What?
What does “AI-first” really mean? What is an AI agent, and how can it be applied within an IT department or in the creation of digital services that truly matter? We will walk through the current dynamics and map where we are in the AI landscape as of August 2025.
‍
At the same time, David will lead a hands-on session, showing how he builds with AI agents. This is not about turning you into a developer.

It’s about giving you a front-row view of how it works, and what it means for the quality, speed, and potential of future digital projects.
