ODSC AI NYC— AI for Work Summit —
Agents, Copilots, Workflows, and Enterprise AI in Production
Join AI practitioners, builders, product leaders, operators, and executives in New York City for two focused days on how AI is changing the way teams work. Go beyond demos and high-level strategy to explore the systems, workflows, evaluation practices, governance patterns, and real-world deployments behind AI that is actually being used.
Built by ODSC for the people building, deploying, and leading applied AI.
Why Attend ODSC AI NYC?
AI at work has moved beyond simple productivity tips and scattered pilots. Teams now need to understand which workflows to redesign, how agents and copilots connect to real systems, how to evaluate outputs, how to manage risk, and how to measure business value.
ODSC AI NYC is built for that next stage: practical, in-person learning for the people responsible for making AI useful inside teams and organizations.
From pilots to production
Learn what it takes to move AI agents, copilots, and workflow automation beyond experiments and into real deployment.
From tools to workflows
See how AI changes the way product, engineering, operations, analytics, and business teams actually get work done.
From adoption to trust
Explore evaluation, governance, security, and oversight practices that make AI systems reliable enough to use.
From strategy to execution
Connect leadership priorities with the technical and operational work needed to make AI valuable.
Program Themes
Six themes shape the two-day program — spanning the technical, operational, and leadership work of applied AI.
AI Agents & Copilots at Work
How agents, copilots, and assistants are being used across business, product, engineering, data, and operations workflows.
AI Engineering, Evals & Trust
Practical approaches to testing, evaluation, monitoring, reliability, human oversight, and production readiness.
Enterprise AI Deployment
