Krešimir Končić is a Croatian engineer, technology writer, and the founder and CEO of Neuralab. Since 2007, he has been building digital products and leading teams developing complex web and eCommerce applications for clients across Europe and the United States. Neuralab’s work has included projects for HBO, P&G and UNICEF.

His academic background spans mechanical engineering and artificial intelligence at the University of Zagreb, followed by a BSc (Honours) in industrial engineering at the UK’s Open University. He also trained in software development at Algebra and participated in engineering projects across Europe, including robotics in Switzerland and aircraft-design workshops in the UK. In 2006, he received the University of Zagreb’s Rector’s Award as part of a team developing an unmanned aerial vehicle.

Krešimir’s work with artificial neural networks began in 2006–2007, when he helped build a financial forecasting model that gave Neuralab its name. His programming experience stretches from QBASIC and ActionScript to C#, JavaScript, SQL and Swift. Running a company has given him plenty of opportunities to discover what those languages cannot settle.

A Netokracija columnist since 2015, Krešimir's writing combines an engineer’s curiosity with a working familiarity with budgets and the awkward distance between a convincing demo and something people can actually use. His book, Coding Is the Easier Part: Makers, Machines, and the Mess in Between, draws on that experience to explore how software gets made and what that tells us about its future.

He lives in Zagreb with his wife and son, who regularly receive detailed answers to tech questions they never asked.

An Phan is a Senior Data Infrastructure Engineer working at the intersection of data, infrastructure, robotics, decision-making systems, and machine learning.

His work focuses on building the reliability layer beneath AI systems, where telemetry, reproducibility, and historical truth matter more than novelty. He designs architectures for sensor-rich and autonomous systems operating across cloud and edge environments, where signals are incomplete, environments change, and failures often cannot be replayed once they are lost.

Over the years, he has worked across industrial AI, manufacturing, maritime systems, and robotics, where many production failures emerged not from the model itself, but from fragmented ownership, missing telemetry, and systems that could no longer explain reality over time.

What happens when your most committed people quietly burn out behind a mask of performance? Serban Mare has lived the answer, and now helps organizations catch it early and reverse it.
Serban is an Engineering Program Manager with 20+ years in the semiconductor and technology industry, still leading complex, high-pressure programs today while keynoting national conferences including PMI Global Summit and SHRM events. He burned out the quiet way: achieving everything on paper while running on empty. Then he rebuilt his energy, focus, and performance without leaving the pressure behind. That makes him a working proof of concept, not a recovered cautionary tale.
His sessions are direct, interactive, and science-backed, built for people who think in systems. Audiences leave with the three warning signs of burnout, a practical counter for each one, and tools they put to work the same week.
