About the event

AI agents have progressed significantly and have provided significantly uplifts across all areas of knowledge work. In data however, we see there’s substantial resistance to apply agentic workflows as poor outcomes directly affect the business.

Join Alkera (YC S26) and AI Builders for an invitation-only VIP event on how to effectively scale agent work to the data layer. We’ll explore how data engineering, analytics and data science teams can move faster with AI while ensuring trust and reliability.

Alkera is the agentic data OS for enterprise data work, covering data governance, data engineering, data science and analytics. Backed by Y Combinator and Pareto Holdings, it connects across your entire data ecosystem and is class-leading on relevant benchmarks.

What we’ll cover

  • What platforms need to provide to enable production data work and why general coding agents are not enough

  • How agentic data platforms like Alkera can both derisk your business and also increase efficiency

  • What has worked and has not worked from our clients and other practitioners for enterprise deployments of AI data work

You’ll walk away with

  • A clear mental model for moving from coding assistance to trusted, end-to-end agentic data work.

  • Practical ways to introduce data agents without losing control of production systems or sensitive data.

  • A framework for evaluating lineage, governance, knowledge, and deployment requirements across your own stack.

  • Peer insights from senior data and AI leaders building in regulated, data-intensive, and fast-scaling environments.

Who this is for

Senior leaders and builders responsible for production data and AI: CTOs, CIOs, CDOs, Heads and VPs of Data, Analytics, AI and Engineering, data platform and enterprise architecture leaders, data governance and security leaders, and founders building data-intensive products.

This salon is especially relevant to teams in financial services and fintech, marketplaces and e-commerce, telecommunications, travel and logistics, media, and other sectors where data quality, governance, and speed all matter.
