AI-Powered SDLC: Zurich Tech Leaders Evening

​AI-Powered SDLC: Zurich Tech Leaders Evening

​Real-world lessons on AI in software delivery, security and data, from teams already doing it

​AI coding agents now read your issues, pull dependencies, run tests and push commits. Is your SDLC ready for that?

​Most teams have moved past “should we use AI?” The real questions now are harder: how do you restructure delivery around it, how do you keep it secure, and how do you make your data trustworthy enough for agents to act on?

​Join tech leaders from across Switzerland for an evening of practical, no-hype talks from people who have already done it. Four speakers, real lessons from the field, and plenty of time to compare notes with peers facing the same challenges.

​📍 Zurich · 10 December 2026 · Doors open 16:00
