Dawid Stronczak

Dawid Stronczak

Dawid Stronczak is a Senior Engineering Manager at Remitly in Kraków. He leads three teams building the foundation of Remitly’s money and accounts platform: the layer behind how customers hold and move their money across borders.

Fraser Dear

Fraser Dear

Fraser Dear is Head of AI and Data Innovation at BCN, a Microsoft Cloud Solutions partner, where he leads the practice that takes customers from their first Copilot conversation to agents running inside real workflows. He owns the strategy, the architecture and the governance conversation with boards and CIOs, and he keeps his hands on the tools: the flows, Fabric databases and Foundry agents in his sessions are ones he built.

His route into technology leadership was not the usual one. He holds a PhD in laser physics and began his career as a laser physicist and project manager at AWE, moved into service and support leadership at SPI Lasers, and spent seven years at Marley leading business relations and process development, taking ERP and CRM programmes from the shop floor to the boardroom. That decade in manufacturing, defence and engineering is why his AI work starts with the process and the data, not the model, and why he insists on measurable outcomes over demos.

Since joining BCN he has built and led its AI, Power Platform and ERP work, becoming Head of AI and Data Innovation in 2024. He has spoken at the Westminster Business Forum on AI in UK financial services, at the PMI Goals to Results conference on AI in performance improvement, at Housemark's Housing Data and Analytics Summit, and on BCN's AI That Works series, where he builds agents live on screen. He holds an Executive Masters in Management from Hult Ashridge, is a Microsoft certified Power Platform and Dynamics 365 practitioner, and is trained in MBTI and DiSC, which shows in how much of his advice is about people rather than platforms.

He is based in Reading and leads the Reading chapter of the Dynamics 365 and Power Platform UK User Group.

Hi, I’m Nilüfer! I’m an AI & Cloud Solutions Specialist and a Microsoft MVP for Business Applications and Copilot Studio, based in Vienna.

My journey started in Power Platform world, and somewhere between building my first Power Apps and my first agent, I found out that I love making AI useful in everyday business processes.

Teaching is just as important to me as building. I have guided teams from 23 companies through their AI transformation with trainings, workshops and office hours, and I co-hosted episodes of an AI podcast along the way. I enjoy sessions where people leave with something they can try the next day, and I am always happy to talk about agents over a coffee.

Guillermo Rincón Gracia

Guillermo Rincón Gracia

Born in Madrid around 30 years ago, Guillermo studied Electronics and Automation Engineering, only to discover after a couple of years at work that what really drives him is working with people. He started as a Software Developer, discovered the Agile world, and quickly became a fan of it — transitioning into a Scrum Master role and learning a lot about agile working and collaboration, always with an eye on increasing productivity and improving the relationships between developers.
These days, Guillermo has traded sprint boards for a new obsession: figuring out what actually makes developers' lives better. At PAYBACK GmbH, he digs into surveys, metrics, and honest conversations to find out where the friction really is — then goes after it by making Developer Experience a real priority, not an afterthought. He's convinced that happy, productive developers are the secret sauce for a successful organization.
