On Monday 19 and Tuesday 20 October we are at the AI & Big Data Expo Europe in the RAI Amsterdam. Nanne Veldman, Wouter Neef and Berfin Yağız are at stand T56 both days.
Come by for a coffee and a conversation about data & AI adoption: how you get people in your organization to actually use AI and data well, and how you know it worked.
Next to the stand we host Booster Sessions. Each one is a 15-minute conversation for a small group of 5 to 6 people, led by a data & AI leader from the field. There are no slides: bring one real AI adoption question from your own organization and get a proper chance to ask it.

Governing AI without slowing people down
How do you govern AI without slowing down the people who use it?
In this Booster Session, Maarten Stolk, CEO and co-founder of Deeploy, hosts a short, open conversation about AI governance in practice. Bring one real AI governance or adoption problem from your own organization and put it to Maarten.
15:00–15:15Details and sign-upFinance
Train before you grant access
Your bank has AI tools. Should every employee get access on day one, or should they first show they can use them safely? And when the auditor asks, how do you prove it?
In this Booster Session, Amal Alshihri of Rabobank hosts a short, open conversation about AI readiness in finance: who gets access to which tools, what people need to know first, and how you keep a record that holds up.
15:30–15:45Details and sign-upMedia & Tech
From prompting to judging
AI now writes the code, the analysis and the report. So what do your people actually need to be good at?
In this Booster Session, Theo Gough, Head of Data Strategy at Just Eat Takeaway, hosts a short, open conversation about the skills that matter once AI does the first draft: knowing what to ask, spotting where the output is wrong, and deciding what to trust.
13:00–13:15Details and sign-upEnergy, Industry & Logistics
Training the jobs nobody trains
You created data owners, stewards and AI champions. Who taught them how to do the job?
New data and AI roles are appearing across logistics, energy and industry, but most people step into them without any training for the role itself. In this Booster Session, Tamires Beltrão, Head of Data Insights at Port of Rotterdam, hosts a conversation about what these roles really need, and how to get people there.
The sessions are open to everyone with an Expo ticket. Places are limited to a small group per session, so sign up in advance. Can't make a session? Just come by stand T56, we'd love to meet you.
