We’re excited to announce Anastasia Karavdina as a speaker at Agentic Conf Hamburg on March 22nd!
About Anastasia
Anastasia Karavdina comes from particle physics, where she was – in her own words – “completely spoiled by access to large amounts of data and the freedom to try out every hot ML algorithm.” The experiments she worked on, including those at the Large Hadron Collider, involved up to 2,500 researchers – giving her a deep appreciation for the software engineering practices that keep large-scale collaboration from descending into chaos.
Today, Anastasia is a Solution Architect at Vattenfall, where she drives AI initiatives across multiple levels and leads her team in implementing ML/AI-based solutions. In her free time, she mentors people transitioning into Data & AI careers.

The Talk: AI Coding Assistants in Enterprises: threat or friend?
Everyone who has ever worked in a large company knows: adopting new tools isn’t just about the technology. Policy, guidelines, security measures – these are just a few of the obstacles standing between enterprise developers and the promise of AI-assisted coding.
In this talk, Anastasia will look at the reality of agentic coding adoption in enterprises. What are these tools actually being used for? What hurdles do teams face when rolling them out? And is it worth the effort?
Whether you’re an individual developer curious about enterprise constraints, or a leader trying to navigate AI adoption in your organization, this talk will give you a grounded perspective on where things stand – and where they’re heading.
