Keynote: The Agentic Enterprise: AI Comes of Age
Enterprises are moving beyond AI experiments and copilots for individual productivity toward the next stage: the Agentic Enterprise, where AI agents drive insights, decisions, and workflows at scale. In this session, Sendur Sellakumar, CEO of Dremio, will outline the enterprise AI maturity journey and show why most organizations are still stuck between prototypes and production outcomes. Through live demos and real-world use cases, you will see how Dremio’s open lakehouse platform provides the intelligent data foundation needed to advance. It delivers semantic consistency, zero ETL federation, autonomous optimization, and built-in governance. Learn how organizations can progress from isolated AI pilots to enterprise-wide impact, and why rethinking data architecture is essential for making AI deliver real business value.
10:30 AM - 11:00 AM

Optional Hands on Workshop - The Dremio Iceberg and Agentic AI Experience (Workshop)
Join us for The Dremio Iceberg and Agentic AI Experience (Workshop)—a hands-on session designed to show how Dremio simplifies building and managing Apache Iceberg lakehouses while unlocking new frontiers in AI. Through guided exercises, you’ll learn how to quickly implement and operate Iceberg tables in Dremio’s open lakehouse platform, making your data more accessible, governed, and ready for analytics at scale. The workshop will also introduce Dremio’s MCP (Model Context Protocol) server and demonstrate how it enables agentic AI to seamlessly query, reason over, and act on your data. Whether you’re a data engineer, architect, or AI practitioner, this interactive experience will give you practical skills for unifying your data in Iceberg and empowering intelligent agents to put it to work.
