As the pioneers of the low-code market since 2001, enterprise software delivery solution OutSystems has evolved rapidly alongside the changing landscape of data. With a global presence and a vast community of over 750,000 members, OutSystems continues to leverage innovative tools, including data observability and generative AI, to help their customers succeed.

In this session, Pedro Sá Martins, Head of Data Engineering, will share the evolution of OutSystems’ data landscape, including how OutSystems has partnered with Snowflake, Fivetran and Monte Carlo to address their modern data challenges. He’ll share best practices for implementing scalable data quality programs to drive innovative technologies, as well as what’s on the data horizon for the OutSystems team.

Practicing analytics well takes more than just tools and tech. It requires data modeling practices that unify and empower all teams within analytics, from engineers to analysts. This is especially true as AI becomes a part of analytics. Without a governed data model that provides consistent data interpretation, AI tools are left to guess. Join panelists Joe Reis, Sarah Levy, Harry Gollop, Rob Hulme, Shachar Meir, and Guy Fighel, as they share battle-tested advice on overcoming conflicting definitions and accurately mapping business intent to data, reports and dashboards at scale. This panel is for data & analytics engineers seeking a clear framework to capture business logic across layers, and for data leaders focused on building a reliable foundation for Gen AI.

While there has been much excitement about the potential of large language models (LLMs) to automate tasks that previously required human intelligence or creativity, many early projects have failed because of LLMs’ innate willingness to lie. This presentation explores these “hallucination” issues and proposes a solution.

By combining generative AI with more traditional symbolic computation, reliability can be maintained, explainability improved, and private knowledge and data injected. This talk will show simple examples of combining language-based thinking with computational thinking to generate solutions that neither could achieve on its own.

An example application of an AI scientific research assistant will be shown that brings together the ideas presented in a most demanding real-world task, where false information is not acceptable. This is a fast-evolving space with enormous potential—and we’re just getting started.

Business challenges that were once sporadic are now persistent and widespread—impacting everyone across the organization, from business users and analysts to data engineers and scientists.

To keep pace, BI platforms have steadily evolved, embracing technologies that empower every user to tackle growing data complexity with confidence.

Now, with sophisticated Gen AI and Agentic AI capabilities built into these platforms, we’re stepping into a new era of analytics—one that redefines what data democratization means for modern businesses.

Join us for an exclusive session where we’ll explore how the latest innovations in Gen AI are reshaping the BI landscape and unlocking powerful, actionable insights for every user.

In this session, you’ll learn:

- What defines a truly Gen AI-powered BI platform

- How businesses can empower every user with cutting-edge Gen AI

- How Agentic AI is shaping BI

- Live demos showcasing Gen AI and Agentic AI capabilities in BI

- Discover how a Gen BI platform can drive smarter decisions, boost productivity, and deliver transformative business outcomes.

This session presents the knowledge graph as a dynamic reasoning engine, not just a static data repository. Learn how to deploy autonomous AI agents that intelligently navigate the relationships within your connected data to discover profound insights. Leveraging GenAI and graph algorithms, this agentic approach moves beyond simple retrieval to create a verifiable foundation for AI systems that can reason and learn.
