Agents After Dark: Shipping Agents, The Production Playbook
The "AI Summer" of experimentation is evolving into a winter of deployment reality. For most teams, the bottleneck isn't the model; it’s the Enterprise Gap. How do you take an agentic prototype and wrap it in the security, identity, and governance required by a regulated industry?
We are bringing together the people actually building this infrastructure to share "Field Reports" from the front lines. This is a curated, semi-technical session designed for founders, engineers, and product leaders who are tired of the "hype" and want to discuss the actual architecture required to ship.
Event Schedule
5:30pm — Arrivals & Networking: Doors open for drinks and conversation with builders and product leaders.
6:00pm — Kickoff & Intro: Matt Doughty, CEO of Prefactor, on why the gap between AI prototypes and production is the next big challenge for teams.
6:10pm — The Production Briefing: Josh, Senior Engineer at Prefactor, on the technical hurdles of agent identity and infrastructure.
6:20pm — Deepesh Sharma, (Fintech): Head of AI and Data at Spriggy, on the reality of scaling AI in regulated enterprise environments.
6:30pm — Practical Perspective (Cloud): TBC, on secure architecture and cloud adoption patterns for AI.
6:40pm — Q&A: Open discussion with all speakers on real-world patterns and deployment hurdles.
7:15pm — Networking: Continued time to connect with the room.
8:00pm — Close
Why we’re gathered
We’re bringing together people who are moving beyond the experiment phase. This isn't a tech-only meetup or a high-level sales pitch; it’s a focused session on the actual architecture and security required to ship agentic products in a professional environment.
Hosted by: Prefactor, the agentic control plane. Track, manage and control agents across your enterprise.
