Leading Transformation and Development in an AI-First World
Business teams have always outnumbered the engineers who build and maintain the technology customers use, impacting both how and when the work gets done. AI-powered agentic tools are now disrupting that dynamic entirely. Instead of engineering being the bottleneck for every idea, AI is closing the gap, letting people with big ideas ship work that once required a chain of software development experts and stake-holder handoffs.
In this session, hear from two leaders managing teams at the forefront of this shift: Scott Lock, CEO of InfernoRed Technology, and Sam Napolitano, Head of Engineering for Direct to Consumer at the NBA. They'll share what it actually looks like to restructure delivery around AI, moving from backlog-clearing teams to self-organizing teams that move as fast as the ideas they're chasing.
