Topics

The 2027 tech team

Defining the ai-ready tech team for 2027

Statement: your best software architect will soon be less valuable than your best 'ai psychologist'.

  • Does your team have the right ai skills for 2027?
  • What new roles do you see emerging, and which existing roles will need to fundamentally change?
  • How do we up skill our current workforce in the Netherlands to fill these roles?
  • Does the leadership structure (of technology departments) need to change to manage these new hybrid teams?

Build vs. Buy

The platform dilemma: cloud convenience vs. independent control.

Statement: for any serious european enterprise, relying on us cloud platforms for core ai is an unacceptable long-term risk.

  • Cloud AI or your own models: what’s the right bet?
  • What is your current strategy regarding the large cloud providers for AI?
  • What are the specific triggers (e.g., cost, privacy, control) that would make you choose self-hosting?
  • What frameworks and tools are you experimenting with, and are they mature enough for enterprise maintenance?

The ‘Red Button’ and runaway costs

Taming the agent: governing risk, cost, and the 'red button'.

Statement: a manual 'red button' is a comforting illusion; by the time you press it, an autonomous agent has already done the damage.

  • How do you currently model and control the costs of your AI experiments?
  • Who pushes the red button on a rogue AI agent?
  • Who in the organization should have the authority to approve, deploy, and terminate agents?

Architecture: designing the central context platform

Architecting context: building your company's AI brain.

Statement: everyone is focused on the LLM, but the model is a commodity. your only real competitive advantage is a superior data and context platform.

  • How do you build your company's AI 'brain'?
  • Do you need to embed all of your unstructured data?
  • Large context windows vs. retrieval optimization
  • Who defines the business rules? Do we let the stakeholders create the agents?
  • When to implement MCP?

From pilot to production

From hype to high-value: deploying your first production agent.

Statement: the smartest first move isn't a flashy, customer-facing agent. it's automating a 'boring' internal process where it can fail safely.

  • Beyond the chatbot: what will your first real agent do?
  • Share one high-potential use case from your company.
  • Measuring ROI.
  • What is the most immediate, practical step your organization could take to start building this?
