HALL 2 - Workshops / Tech Talks

This session explores how the rise of AI—particularly Large Language Models (LLMs)—is poised to transform the way we design and build software systems. Traditional software architectures rely on predefined interfaces at both the front end (user interfaces) and the back end (API contracts). However, as AI advances in its ability to understand user intent and contextual data in real time, these static design paradigms are being challenged.

Many companies are turning to agentic workflows to automate tasks and improve efficiency. But does working multi-agent workflow mean you have a system ready for real- world production? Not quite! Building reliable multi-agent systems comes with challenges—balancing autonomy, managing orchestration, and defining a scalable service architecture. In this session, we’ll uncover the pitfalls of deploying multi-agent workflows at scale and explore best practices for fault tolerance, coordination, and real-world deployment. Ready to move beyond experiments and into production? Join us to navigate the complexities and build truly robust agentic workflows!

Generative AI is changing the game for digital marketing, offering new ways to engage with audiences and create personalized experiences. In this session, we’ll dive into how AI is helping brands generate dynamic content, automate tasks, and craft smarter marketing strategies. From AI-driven ad designs to tailored customer experiences, we’ll explore how this technology is enabling marketers to work faster, more efficiently, and more creatively. Through real-world examples, you’ll see firsthand how Generative AI is revolutionizing digital marketing, offering a powerful tool for driving results and connecting with customers on a deeper level.

OPEA Empower enterprises to develop and deploy GenAI solutions through an open ecosystem focused on security, scalability, cost efficiency, and agility. The platform offers a detailed framework of composable building blocks, architectural blueprints for retrieval-augmented workflows, and a comprehensive four-step assessment to evaluate performance, features, trustworthiness, and enterprise readiness of generative AI systems. This session will quickly introduce the listeners with OPEA.

Dive into the world of multi-agent systems and learn how to build them from the ground up using Google’s Gemini AI models. This hands-on workshop will guide you through essential design patterns and architectural components for creating robust, scalable multi-agent applications. Using a unified Gemini SDK compatible with both Google AI Studio and Vertex AI, we’ll implement features like function calling, structured output, tool integration, and real-time web search to augment Gemini’s capabilities. You’ll gain practical experience by developing a research-focused multi-agent system that leverages these features, together with the ability to structure data output in Pydantic format, to generate an in-depth market analysis report for the Electric Vehicle (EV) industry. This workshop is ideal for developers and researchers seeking to master the art of building sophisticated AI-powered systems with Gemini.

This workshop serves as a holistic learning guide for Google’s Gemini Multimodal Live API. Through a structured, hands-on approach, you’ll learn how to build sophisticated real-time applications that can see, hear, and interact naturally using Gemini’s multimodal capabilities. We will also explore enterprise-grade implementation of the same using Vertex AI.

In a world where Web3 and Artificial Intelligence are driving the next wave of innovation, this session, “Building Crypto in the World of AI,” dives into the real-world use cases of Web3 technologies. The speaker will explore how AI is reshaping blockchain applications, from decentralized finance (DeFi) to data ownership, digital identity, and governance in autonomous organizations. Gain insights into how these advancements are creating smarter, more secure, and scalable ecosystems, driving the adoption of decentralized technologies across industries.

AI will reshape industries by seamlessly combining precision with creativity, offering both analytical depth and innovative potential. Predictive AI and Generative AI in tandem can achieve optimal outcomes. This synergy can ensure more efficient, accurate, and scalable operations across industries like insurance, healthcare, and finance.

Videos are everywhere. Over 90% of the content consumed online (by time spent) are videos. Yet, video transcoding is a little understood process in digital media production, streaming, and content distribution. We will dive deep into the technical intricacies and practical methodologies of efficient video encoding and come up with a comprehensive strategy for optimizing video transformations.

We will explore the fundamental principles of video compression, including codec mechanics, container formats, and the complex trade-offs between file size, visual quality, and computational complexity. The talk will systematically break down the encoding landscape, covering key technologies like H.264, HEVC, AV1, and emerging standards, and demonstrate how to select the right approach for specific use cases ranging from long form web streaming to short form reels.
