First speakers announced.
We're just getting started. Check back regularly for more speaker announcements.
(THREE DAYS, THREE MUST-ATTEND TRACKS )
This track is designed for developers seeking a "Zero-BS" approach that treats AI as a rigorous engineering discipline rather than a "magical" solution. We prioritize real code, real demos, and solving real engineering problems over marketing fluff to help you integrate AI tools into your actual workflow.
Master the hard skills required to build fast, production-ready, and reliable intelligent apps that perform under the unique constraints of mobile hardware.
This track is designed for senior technical leaders, architects, and EMs who need to stay sharp on strategy, architecture, and delivery rather than high-level visionary fluff.
