01What makes this different

This isn't a typical conference

AI is rewriting the rules of software quality. Agentic systems ship code at a pace traditional QA was never designed to match, and the teams winning this shift aren't waiting.

What you won't find
No vendor-heavy pitches
No recycled theory
No surface-level conversations
What you will
Engineering leaders sharing real transformation
Candid AI adoption stories and lessons
Practical frameworks you can act on immediately
