CrewAI 101: Building Multi-Agent Systems in Practice
Most AI applications today are built as chatbots—single models responding to prompts. But real-world problems require systems that can plan, reason, collaborate, and validate results.
In this session, we’ll start by clearly understanding the difference between chatbots and AI agents, and why multi-agent architectures are more reliable, scalable, and easier to reason about than single-agent designs.
We’ll then introduce CrewAI, a Python framework for building collaborative AI systems, and explore its core concepts such as agents, tasks, crews, and execution processes.
The session includes a live walkthrough of building both a single-agent and a multi-agent system using CrewAI, showing how agents collaborate to solve real-world tasks.
By the end of this session, attendees will have a clear mental model of multi-agent systems and practical, runnable examples they can use to start building with CrewAI immediately.

Agentic AI in Action: Creating Autonomous Agent Using Copilot Studio and Dataverse
Agentic AI is changing how applications are built—from prompt-based interactions to autonomous systems that can reason, plan, and act. In this hands-on session, developers will learn how to design and build an autonomous AI agent using Microsoft Copilot Studio for a real-world use case.
We’ll briefly cover what AI agents are, how they differ from traditional AI workflows, and the core components of agentic systems. The focus then shifts to practice: using Copilot Studio to create an autonomous agent by defining goals, configuring triggers, connecting actions, and enabling decision-driven execution.
The session includes a live end-to-end demo and practical guidance that developers can directly apply to build and extend agent-based solutions in enterprise environments.
Tech Excellence in Data & Infra Platforms (Microsoft AI Tour for Partners)
As part of the Microsoft AI Tour for Partners in Mumbai, I delivered a hands-on lab showcasing how Microsoft Copilot in Azure and GitHub Copilot can transform operational efficiency for development and cloud teams. The session guided participants through practical scenarios involving AI‑assisted troubleshooting, automation, infrastructure management, and code acceleration—enabling teams to streamline workflows and enhance productivity using the power of AI-driven copilots.
