Original creator of Apache Airflow and Apache Superset, two of the most widely adopted open-source projects in modern data, and the Founder & CEO of Preset. Before Preset, I led data engineering teams at Airbnb, Facebook, and Lyft, working on some of the largest-scale data platforms in the industry. Now, I'm building the same kind of foundational, open-source tooling for the AI era: Agor (agor.live), a collaborative team command center for AI coding teammates. A longtime open-source advocate who builds in the open, I'm betting that the next platform shift is teams of humans and agents working side by side.

Aga Skraburska

Aga Skraburska

Aga Skraburska is Head of Product Education at Nexthink, a Digital Employee Experience Management company, where she leads a suite of educational products that help users master the Nexthink platform. Over the past two years, she has led AI adoption on two fronts: inside her own team, from individual capability through to process redesign, and in the products themselves — rebuilding Nexthink's product education so that it is AI-driven and fits how people actually learn now.

For nearly two decades, she has held product and program roles at ABB, UBS, and a number of startups, building global learning, leadership, and transformation programs. That work taught her a consistent lesson: people don't change because an organization expects them to adapt. They change when they feel seen, supported, and appropriately challenged.

Trained in systems-psychodynamic approaches to learning and coaching, Aga works at the intersection of two things that rarely meet — organizational strategy and genuine human awareness. She speaks the language of systems, data, and leadership, and also the language of culture, motivation, and what people actually fear when their role starts to change. She coaches individuals and teams through exactly that shift.

Ulrich Kaergaard

I am the co-founder and CEO of bc4all, building WrenchTime, a modern CMMS developed natively inside Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.

Building product in the Dynamics ecosystem is what I do. I have spent the last decade focused on CMMS and EAM software for Microsoft Dynamics, as a developer, consultant, product manager and account executive. Later as Managing Director of an international ISV with apps on AppSource and a partner channel of more than 50 resellers across Europe and the US.

Through all of it I have formed strong opinions about how companies should work: trust people, say the true thing early, and strip out the coordination that produces no value. I have run teams across borders long enough to know it holds up.

Today that means building the company of my dream, with my co-founder and CTO Krzysztof Białowąs, Business Central MVP.

I also serve on the board of Sprint365 and advise CoGo IoT. I am based in Aalborg, Denmark.
