​5:30 – 6:30 PM Check-in & Welcome Reception

​6:30 – 7:00 PM Manage AI Agents at Scale with Foundry Control Plane - Amanda Foster, Microsoft Take command of your AI agent fleet with Foundry Control Plane. As organizations evolve from isolated copilots to autonomous multi-agent systems, they need unified oversight. Learn how Foundry Control Plane gives AI developers the visibility, governance, and control to manage their entire agent fleet and scale reliably.

​7:00 – 7:30 PM Alyx: Lessons Learned from Building and Evaluating a Production Agent — Arize AI We have thousands of customers building agents every day and learn a lot from them, but we learned even more when we built Alyx, our in-product AI assistant for using Arize AX. In this talk we'll share the architecture of Alyx, missteps and roads not taken, and the techniques we used to build a high-quality, performant agent in production.

​7:30 – 8:30 PM Happy Hour & Networking
