I solve the $2M problems that happen when brilliant technology meets confused humans.

Over the past decade, I've built AI platforms that generate $5M ARR, transformed failing products into 340% growth stories, and led 50,000+ user migrations with zero downtime. But here's what I've really learned: the biggest technology challenges aren't technical at all. They're psychological.

With my Master's in Social Data Science from Oxford, I've spent my career at the intersection where human behavior meets enterprise technology. I've worked across healthcare, finance, and global consulting at Accenture, consistently discovering that the same patterns emerge everywhere: smart people make predictable, irrational decisions about technology adoption.
I'm the product leader who gets called in when expensive AI implementations sit unused, when teams resist change despite obvious benefits, or when leadership needs someone who can translate between C-suite vision and developer reality. My "human first AI" framework is now adopted by 3 Fortune 500 companies because it works with human psychology rather than against it.
My superpower is turning complex technological chaos into revenue generating clarity. I've reduced patient wait times from 48 hours to 4 hours, cut compliance review time by 87%, and helped teams embrace AI tools they initially feared. I understand both the technical possibilities (Python, TensorFlow, cloud architecture) and the human realities (cognitive bias, change resistance, team dynamics) of making technology actually work.

Whether I'm speaking about AI manipulation psychology, the neuroscience of developer attention, or why brilliant teams make terrible technology decisions, I bring data driven insights combined with real world war stories from the trenches of enterprise transformation.
I
believe the future belongs to leaders who understand that every technology problem is fundamentally a people problem. And people problems are endlessly fascinating to solve.

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.

Sławomir Jasiński

I am a Microsoft Power Platform Developer specializing in designing scalable low-code solutions for enterprise environments. In my daily work, I build solutions with Power Apps, Power Automate, Dataverse, and SharePoint Online, often integrating the Power Platform with Azure services when low-code capabilities need to be extended with pro-code components.

I have experience in building business applications, automating processes, and implementing governance and ALM practices across organizations of various sizes — from business team solutions to production environments structured around DEV, TEST, and PROD. My work focuses on architectural quality, security, cost control, maintainability, and the long-term reliability of delivered solutions.

Beyond project delivery, I actively share my knowledge as a speaker and trainer. I lead training sessions and workshops on Power Platform, SharePoint, and Power Automate, and I speak at meetups and community conferences across Poland.

I am especially interested in technology adoption, improving the way teams work, and combining low-code and pro-code approaches in a thoughtful and practical way. I believe that the Power Platform is not just a toolset for building “quick apps,” but a mature ecosystem that — with the right architecture and governance — can become a strong foundation for modern business solutions.

Hi, I’m Steve. I’m Chief Revenue Officer at Truly SMB. We’re a global Microsoft partner, laser focused on helping small businesses get the most of technology, particularly AI and automation.

My role is all about making sure what we sell, and the language we use to talk about it, sounds good to small business owners. We try to talk without jargon, and assume not every small business owner knows the entire Microsoft product set before we speak to them!

Our revolutionary approach at Truly SMB is about business fitness. We call it TrulyFIT. We work with a customer to understand their long term goals, and then our ‘programs’ and ‘workouts’ help break these down into achievable chunks. This delivers easy to understand, incremental gains. We cover AI Business Solutions, IT Support & Security and Cloud & AI platforms

Mihaela Draghici

Mihaela Draghici

Mihaela is a product leader with 15 years experience in building B2C and B2B global products and leading product teams in various industries, from education, e-commerce, to affiliate marketing and automotive.

She's led and scaled cross-functional teams, launched new products, and worked closely with business, design, engineering, and leadership teams in complex environments, while shifting away from a project mindset and towards a user-centric and outcome-oriented approach.

Mihaela believes that putting people first, both end-users and teams, is the key to creating great products.

Throughout her experience, she identified that most product teams don’t fail because of strategy, or lack of skill. They fail because they are not truly aligned in how they understand the work.

She now helps product leaders and cross-functional teams uncover hidden misalignment, clarify how they communicate, and build and speak the shared language needed to make good decisions and deliver outcomes that matter, faster.

Topics include:
- cross-functional collaboration
- outcome-driven product development
- inclusive leadership
- language & alignment in cross-functional teams

After my sessions, audiences typically:
- recognise how language quietly shapes collaboration and decision-making
- see why well-intentioned teams drift out of alignment over time
- gain practical ways to surface hidden assumptions in their own teams
- rethink “alignment” as an ongoing leadership responsibility, not a one-off event

Most importantly, leaders leave with a sharper lens for spotting problems before they turn into delivery failures or team friction.

My talks are grounded in real team dynamics, not idealised models, and they challenge people to look honestly at how they work together.
