Presentation Details

🗣️ Presentation #1: Building Better Data Pipelines with dbt and Snowflake - and a Little Help from AI Speaker: [Daniel Toth](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laszlo-daniel-toth-phd-2ab99499/), Senior Solutions Engineer, Snowflake The talk explores how teams can use dbt and Snowflake to turn raw data into reliable, reusable datasets. We will cover the basics and current developments - including Slim CI, native defer-to-production, concurrent executions, dbt Fusion, and Cortex Code - and show how they simplify development, testing, deployment, and day-to-day ops. Attendees will leave with a practical mental model and concrete ideas for evaluating dbt Projects on Snowflake, including how AI can streamline development and help engineers work more efficiently.

🗣️ Presentation #2: Teamwork Instead of Single Player: From SQL Notebook Handover to a Shared dbt Workflow Speaker: [Sergej Kaiser](https://www.linkedin.com/in/sergej-kaiser/), Senior ML/Data Engineer, b.telligent Data analysts understand the business logic, write SQL notebooks and hand them over to engineers to make them production ready. That is how analysts and engineers collaborate in many projects. At a fintech client, we accompanied this transition from the inside: from separate notebooks to joint work on one dbt project on a data lakehouse. The result: analysts who ship logic to production more independently, and engineers who moved from gatekeeper to enabler. A field report on how the roles of analysts and engineers changed, and how one team balances speed, quality standards and build stability inside a shared dbt project.

🗣️ Presentation #3: Congratulations! You are a Context Engineer Speaker: [Sean McIntyre](https://www.linkedin.com/in/boxysean/), Principal Solutions Architect, dbt Labs As AI rapidly changes how organizations work, Sean will walk you through how to add context engineering with dbt to your skillset, to help supercharge your data platform and derive greater and more valuable insights.
