Nick Finch

Nick Finch

Nick Finch is CTO and co-founder of inmydata, where he leads the development of AI-first infrastructure for enterprise.

inmydata is built on a simple observation. Most of what an organisation knows lives in people's heads rather than its systems, and the data that does sit in systems is locked inside ERPs and legacy platforms that AI cannot easily reach. The company addresses both problems through two pillars. A Data Platform that gives AI real-time semantic access to operational data, and a Knowledge AI layer centred on an Expert Interview System that autonomously captures tacit knowledge from subject matter experts, served through an Agentic RAG architecture combining vector search, lexical search, and structured retrieval under agent control.

Nick brings around 20 years in data analytics and four years working hands-on with LLMs to that mission, having built production agentic systems across commodity trading, enterprise database administration, and operational analytics, integrating ERP data, financial markets, and external data sources at scale.

inmydata is AI-first in how it builds as well as what it builds. The team has developed a leading agentic engineering practice, where AI agents do most of the work under human supervision, and writes openly about how to do it well at inmydata.ai/blog. Nick speaks regularly at industry conferences and publishes on agentic architecture and engineering discipline, arguing that agentic AI compresses the SaaS UI layer to near-zero, while making the underlying business logic, data, and engineering practices that produce them more valuable when properly packaged for AI consumption.

Mon parcours mélange coaching agile, coaching pro et transformation organisationnelle. J’aime creuser ce qui permet (ou empêche) une transformation de vraiment prendre, au-delà des frameworks et des bonnes intentions. J’utilise des modèles comme l’Analyse Transactionnelle, la systémique ou le Solution Focus pour aider les organisations à dépasser leurs blocages et à créer un changement qui tient dans le temps.

À travers mes conférences, j’aime à partager des clés concrètes et des retours d’expérience sur la transformation des organisations, sans bullshit ni recette magique, mais avec des leviers actionnables dès demain basé sur l'approche Tete/Coeur/Corps, l'analyse transactionnelle et l'approche systémique.

Katharina Covadonga Clören

Katharina Covadonga Clören

Hi there, my name is Katharina Covadonga Clören.
I discovered my passion for data analysis and reporting during my studies – quite unexpectedly, in a student job. That’s when I realized how much I enjoy analyzing complex patterns and bringing them to life through creative visuals. For me, data visualization is the perfect blend of analytical detective and creative artist: I love uncovering hidden insights and presenting them in a way that’s clear, engaging, and impactful.

For the past three years, I’ve been working as a consultant with a focus on Data Analytics and Data Storytelling. What fascinates me most is the incredible potential and variety that lies in good visualizations. Before starting my consulting career, I spent a year traveling around the world – driven by curiosity, a love for adventure, and an open mind for people, cultures, and new perspectives. That same openness shapes the way I work today: Data is everywhere, and it always tells a story – you just have to listen (and look) closely.

When I’m not building reports or analyzing data, you’ll find me moving (like yoga, bouldering or lifting heavy stuff), enjoying food from around the world, or exploring the planet.

Fernanda Arias

Fernanda Arias

I work at an unusual intersection: psychology applied to AI-powered operations design. I studied how the human mind thinks, decides and burns out before I learned to automate it. Today I do both at the same time and it turns out to be the most useful combination I've had in my career.

As Head of Operations at Dojo Coding, LATAM's developer learning and community platform, I designed the company's internal operating system: the processes, metrics and AI agents that hold up a bootstrapped startup running on a small team with a whole region to serve.
In parallel, I'm co-founder & COO of Blockchain Jungle, the tech summit I built from scratch in Costa Rica — three editions, 7,000+ attendees, a better-connected region.

My thesis: operations problems are almost never technical. They're human problems dressed up as docs, spreadsheets or "the workflow doesn't scale." Psychology taught me how to read them. AI gave me what to fix them with. That's what I do: design ops from psychology and AI, not from the management playbook.

I speak from the trenches, not from theory. If your event touches that, reach out.
