AI innovation no longer ends at generating responses. The real breakthroughs are happening in how models infer, interpret, & act on context. From powering smarter agents to enabling domain-specific workflows, inference & context engineering are redefining the boundaries of intelligence.
This event brings together founders, researchers, & operators at the frontier of inference systems, context design, & applied AI. Together, we'll explore how to build scalable, efficient, & trustworthy AI that goes far beyond the prompt.
Featured Speakers
Jack Song - Head of Data Platforms & AI, Engineering Director at Uber (NYSE: UBER)
Kapil Chhabra - Co-Founder & CPO of WisdomAI ($38M raised), developer of an AI-driven data analytics platform designed to make data insights accessible to all employees.
Matt Chen, Head of ML, Document AI at EvenUp (AI Unicorn, ~$240M raised); ex-Head of Engineering, AWS Enterprise Apps, ex-Director Engineering at WeWork.
Shaofeng Shi - Apache Gravitino committer & PMC member; VP of Engineering, Datastrato
Topics We'll Cover
The New Inference Stack
How inference is evolving beyond raw model output: batching, routing, low-latency pipelines, & specialized inference engines.
Context as the New Compute
The rise of context windows, retrieval augmentation, & dynamic orchestration-why context engineering is becoming as important as model training.
Architecting Agent Workflows
From single-shot inference to multi-step reasoning: designing agent loops, memory systems, & APIs that make AI useful in the real world.
Security, Trust, & Cost Trade-offs
Challenges in auditing inference, preventing adversarial misuse, & managing costs at scale.
The GTM Edge: What Founders Should Know
Where inference & context innovations create defensible moats, from verticalized AI stacks to enterprise deployment.
