Platform Calgary - Classroom 1, 407 9 Avenue Southeast, Calgary, T2G 2K7

GDG Cloud Calgary

Enterprises are moving beyond experimental AI to deploy autonomous agents that execute real operational workflows at scale. Success hinges on embedding governance, security, and cost directly into system architecture rather than treating them as afterthoughts.

About this event

This is a Typeshift event in the Foundation and Applications series

AI capability is advancing rapidly. Enterprises are moving from experiments into production, and agentic AI is beginning to take real work off people's hands rather than just advising on it. Adoption is not only a technology question though. Every deployment carries decisions about security, governance, cost and data privacy, and the organizations getting real value are the ones treating those as design inputs rather than afterthoughts. This session looks at how AI is being used inside industry today, what changes when agents act instead of suggest, and the considerations that separate a promising pilot from something a business can actually rely on. Students will leave with a clearer picture of how organizations are evolving around AI, and what that shift means for the work they are heading into.
