Tech Talk: Scaling and Managing Complex Agentic Workflows with Conductor
Speaker: Viren Baraiya (CTO & co-founder, Orkes)
Abstract: Managing complex workflows in autonomous systems poses significant challenges as they scale. This talk explores strategies for optimizing agent-based architectures, where multiple agents interact and adapt in dynamic environments. Key topics include: 1) Distributed decision-making and coordination; 2) Bottlenecks; 3) Adaptive workflow reconfiguration and resilience; and 4) Real-world applications.

Tech Talk: What are agents anyway?
Speaker: Daniele Bernardi (CEO & co-founder, Toolhouse)
Abstract: Agentic AI has been the buzzword of the year. What is an agent and why it makes it more accurate and advanced than plain inference? In this session, we’ll explain the difference between agentic AI calls and regular inference, and we’ll show real life examples.
