Keynotes and panels on agentic AI, the future tech workforce, AI in production and the UK's compute infrastructure.

Day 2 of the Brazen Summit moves past the headlines to examine what artificial intelligence is really doing to work, careers and the infrastructure that underpins it. The morning is designed for leaders who need a clear, evidence-based view of AI to inform strategy, investment and workforce planning.

Dr Daniel Duma opens with a keynote on what agentic AI can do today and what that means for the future of work. A panel with Emily Armstrong, Joel Gibbard MBE and Caelum Rosenkranz of Google Cloud then takes on one of the most pressing questions for employers: if AI is taking on entry-level tasks, how will the next generation of technology leaders gain the experience they need?

Attendees will then hear directly from people putting AI to work. Kirstine Dale of the Met Office, Su Crighton of KPMG, Andrew Ward of nLighten and Katie Gallagher OBE share what is working, what is not, and what it takes to move beyond pilots. The morning closes with a fireside chat with Dame Dawn Childs, CEO of nLighten, on sovereignty, compute capacity and the infrastructure choices facing the UK.

Between sessions, there is time to connect with technologists, business leaders, policymakers and talent specialists working through the same challenges, making the morning as valuable for the conversations it starts as for the content on stage.

Who should attend: business leaders, technologists, HR and talent leads, policymakers and anyone planning for AI adoption.

The Summit runs each weekday morning from Monday 9 to Friday 13 November as part of Brazen, Bristol's festival of technology, creativity and culture. Sessions begin at 09:30. If you'd like to book a week pass follow this link https://techspark.co/brazen/passes/
