Ahmad Mudhar

Ahmad Mudhar

My vision and mission is simple - make life easier through technology and innovation.

Background:

I built my first digital world at 16, from my bedroom.

It wasn't about traffic. It was about enabling online payments, e-commerce, giving reporters a platform to tell the truth, creating digital opportunities for a nation that had been excluded from the online world for many years. I didn’t have a manual, just an extreme passion for making life easier through technology.

In over 20 years, I’ve seen a lot of friction in how products are built. The simplest solution is still one of the most powerful: “Start with the customer experience and work backward to the technology.” -Steve Jobs

Carsten Marmulla

Carsten Marmulla

On paper, risk management is a clean matrix of probabilities and impacts. In reality, it is a series of impossible decisions made under maximum uncertainty. Carsten Marmulla has spent decades navigating this reality, combining academic rigor with pragmatism learned from the "school of hard knocks".

Through his roles as a vCISO, IT security manager, and strategic advisor for large enterprises, Carsten has guided numerous organizations through complex digital transformations and risk mitigation programs.

He challenges the dangerous illusion that green dashboards and standard certifications equal true security. Instead, he uses his trademark "plain talk" (Klartext) to bridge the communication gap between technical teams and the C-suite.

Beyond his consulting work, Carsten actively mentors cybersecurity startups, shaping the future of the industry.

On stage, he combines the hard-won insights of an entrepreneur with the strategic depth of a management consultant, giving decision-makers the tools they need to build truly resilient organizations.

Jose Luis Latorre Millas

José Luis Latorre is a Microsoft AI MVP, LinkedIn Learning Trainer, and Agentic & Software Architect at Swiss Life, where he leads the Developer Community, helps shape the AI strategy—while also building agentic applications that have to work on Mondays, not just in demos.

Since 2023, he’s been contributing to Microsoft’s agentic AI frameworks (as in: building it, not just using it): Semantic Kernel, AutoGen, and now Microsoft Agent Framework (MAF)—where he’s Contributor #29. Nights and weekends, alongside the day job. Because apparently he enjoys pain… and shipping PRs.

He has released 4 courses and is working on the next one (Agent Framework), teaching up to 60,000 learners.

Frustrated by unreliable agents in the real world, he built AgentEval—the .NET evaluation toolkit that brings validation discipline to agents and agentic workflows (think: what RAGAS / DeepEval are for Python, AgentEval is for .NET).

On stage, expect real engineering lessons, practical patterns, and live demos—helping teams build agents that are not just impressive, but measurably better.

Tagline: “I don’t just build agents. I help build the frameworks… and then I measure whether they behave.”
