Mindspace Koszyki, Warszawa, Poland

A panel discussion examines why an AI prototype that looks production-ready within minutes can be far from it, and what that gap means for engineering leaders whose stakeholders expect production outcomes at prototype speed. The session covers evaluating, securing and operating AI systems at scale, compliance, and why faster code creation does not produce faster business outcomes. Tech Leaders Collective is a Warsaw community for engineering managers, directors and senior technical leaders. The fourth session, run with Dropbox, is built for peer discussion and ends with pizza, drinks and networking.
