India's flagship
developer-only event

Every major technology shift threatens the status quo. But AI feels different because this time, it can actually write code. So what happens to developers? Explore why the next generation of builders may spend less time coding, yet play a more critical role as they expand their capabilities into designing and directing what AI builds.

AI is transforming how software is planned, built, tested, modernized, and deployed—but moving beyond vibe coding requires more than generating code. This keynote explores the AI-native SDLC in practice and how developers can use AI across the entire development lifecycle. Discover how IBM Bob acts as an intelligent development partner, helping teams move from ideas to production-ready software faster while maintaining quality, security, and control.

Explore how enterprises are redefining multi-skilled talent profiles in the evolving AI ecosystem, and learn how professionals can build capabilities across different areas of tech and stay relevant and flourish as AI evolves.

Three years ago, AI was part of the building roadmap. Today, it is automating the very workflows that used to keep customers locked in. But the lower cost of building has also made products easier to replicate. As models and features become increasingly interchangeable, where does differentiation move next?

Every new wave of technology adds another framework, platform, or tool that developers are told to master. But AI’s accelerated growth has shifted that narrative. Now, instead of asking what developers should learn next, the real question is which skills are becoming less valuable. Which fundamentals remain durable, and where should developers actually invest their time?

The AI model gets the attention, but production AI depends on everything around it. Explore how cloud, data, integration, security, and orchestration determine whether an AI application can actually perform reliably at scale.

Modern development goes beyond writing code—it’s about integrating services, working with existing systems, testing reliably, and shipping at scale. Through live demonstrations and practical use cases, discover how IBM Bob helps developers generate and understand code, streamline integrations, automate testing and debugging, and modernize applications. See how you can reduce repetitive work, stay in flow, and move from idea to production-ready software faster.

Today’s GCCs are going beyond just delivering technology — becoming global hubs for building products, platforms and innovation. At the heart of this shift are developers. Explore how engineering capabilities are turning into real business impact and shaping the future of technology.
