Tutaleni Ilonga

Tutaleni, is the driving force behind the growth of Game Development in Namibia and in Africa as a whole, as well as the bridge between South America and Africa when it comes to the Game Development space. After successfully completing the Enter Africa game development program Mr, Ilonga created his own game studio/company called TL Entertainment whereby he created games and was successfully able to import Global Game Jam and Game Jam +, whereby together with the partnership between TL Entertainment and Game Jam+ there was a bridge built between Namibia and Brazil.

With the games that where created not proving to be profitable, Mr Ilonga would take part in a CEP program whereby he would like up with Vaughan, Veronica and Ndamono and together they would form Edu-Game Namibia to create an innovation hub around gaming to ensure that the market because sustainable around gaming and ensure future Namibian generations will be able to profit from it.

With 7 Years’ experience in Gaming Mr Ilonga has won a few awards and also became the flag career for Gaming especially at the Forbes where he and Vaughan would help Edu-Game Namibia make it to the top 3 pitch battle final. Currently Mr Ilonga together with Edu-Game are working on a curriculum to gamify the education system.

Lee Faus

Lee Faus

Lee Faus Founder & CEO, Atomic Software, Co.
https://atomic.dev
Lee is the Founder and CEO of Atomic, a code intelligence platform rebuilding version control from the ground up for the software factory era. He bootstrapped Atomic through pre-seed, assembled the founding team, and led the company to v1, drawing on two decades of experience inside the infrastructure of how software gets built.
That experience includes engineering and go-to-market roles at Borland, Compuware, Red Hat, GitHub, and GitLab, as well as direct advisory work with engineering leaders at Fortune 100 and Global 2000 companies including State Farm, Pfizer, Wells Fargo, Travelport, and Nokia. Those tools and those organizations were the right answer for their era. But after years of watching enterprises strain under the weight of agent-driven development, the architectural gap became impossible to ignore. Git was designed in 2005 for humans editing text files one commit at a time. It was never built for what is coming next.
Atomic was built to replace it. Where legacy platforms bolt AI onto infrastructure designed for human-rate commits, Atomic starts from a different foundation: immutable changes, Merkle-bound policy, cryptographic attestation, and a decision ledger that tracks every input and output from intent to integrated code. The inner loop, where agents actually work, has no serious tooling today. That is the white space Atomic was built to own.
Lee speaks at international conferences on AI-native engineering, software supply chain integrity, and the architectural consequences of machine-rate development. His focus is practical: what engineering organizations actually need to govern, audit, and scale a software factory where agents generate the majority of code.
