Did you know that 49% of all internet traffic is already generated by bots? What if the next wave of this revolution isn't just bots, but agents—intelligent, autonomous entities that drive business decisions, automate tasks, and interact with customers?We are in the middle of the greatest technological shift since the rise of the internet, the question isn't if Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) will arrive, but when, and more importantly, how it will reshape everything we know about how to run a business.
In this keynote, Bart Snijders, founder of the leading growth hacking agency Sprints & Sneakers, will guide you through the impending revolution. He’ll explore the transformative potential of AI agents, what it means for data-driven organizations, and how we can prepare for the complex ethical, strategic, and privacy challenges ahead. With insights from practical cases, Bart will show you how businesses can not only survive but thrive in this rapidly evolving landscape.Get ready to rethink how you approach your business strategy in the age of AGI, and equip your business to harness the power of intelligent agents in a world where everything—yes, everything—has the potential to be automated.
