Meet us at TNW Conference 2024 in Amsterdam
For years, TNW Conference has been the tech festival in the Netherlands. Or, as TheNextWeb organization formulates it:
Let us work towards a future where technology is a beacon of hope once again, all while getting all of the benefits of a conference with the energy of a festival – do business, get inspired, meet industry peers, and enjoy every minute of it.
TNW Program
On June 20 and 21, make sure to meet our AI experts at the festival in Amsterdam, and learn about:
- The necessity of explainability in AI
- What happens under the hood of ChatGPT
- Ways to align generative AI with your business goals
- How other companies use generative AI (and what you can learn from it)
- How mapping your business processes with generative AI can lower risks and increase productivity
- How we use generative AI to translate complete code bases
You can find us in the greenhouse both days from 10:30 till 15:50.
Here is a complete overview of everything we have to offer at the TNW Conference 2024.
Generative AI from the trenches: from legacy to a modern development stack – Elise Lems & Jurre Brandsen
June 20, 11:20 – 12:10 & June 21, 13:30 – 14:10
Generative AI changes how we build software. Many of you use Github Copilot or other AI coding assistants daily or have tried one. Although these coding assistants are powerful, you can do so much more with GPT-4 to improve your software development game.
We combined Generative AI with software engineering best practices to translate a complete legacy codebase built in a low-code solution into a modern approach with Vue and Typescript. This allowed us to translate the codebase with 85% less effort than translating the code by hand. We took away the tedious work by automating it with AI while allowing engineers to review and improve the overall structure of the solution.
In this talk, you’ll learn how we use generative AI to translate complete code bases. We’ll also show how generative AI can be a powerful asset for developers instead of a technology that replaces human creativity.
Leading with Intelligent automation: Leveraging BPMN and Generative AI to Address Workforce Aging and Productivity Demands – Willem Meints
June 20, 12:10 – 12:50 & June 21, 10:30 – 11:10
With an aging workforce and rising productivity demands, the need for intelligent automation is critical. In this session we’ll explore how mapping your business processes using BPMN, and focusing on automating process steps with generative AI can lower risks and increase productivity. Discover how you can utilize simple scripts for prototyping and scale with tools like Python, Langchain, and BPMN tools to get the most out of your AI automation efforts. Finally, learn how you can apply early testing for reliability and safety.

June 20, 13:30 – 14:10 & June 21, 14:20 – 15:00
Enrich your knowledge of Generative AI in this interactive workshop, where sharing insights with other companies broadens your perspective. Stimulate creativity and innovation through lively discussions and a unique card game. Seize the opportunity to reconsider your existing vision and return to your organization equipped with new, practical insights to enhance the implementation of Generative AI.
Smart Leadership: 10 Ways to Align Generative AI with Your Business Goals – Willem Meints & Kim Pot
June 20, 14:20 – 15:00 & June 21, 11:20 – 12:10
In this engaging session, you’ll learn how to seamlessly integrate Generative AI into your company’s goals, ensuring that technology not only supports but also enhances your strategic directions. Discover actionable insights and innovative approaches to leverage Generative AI as a core driver of your business success. This session is perfect for those looking to effectively bridge the gap between cutting-edge AI technologies and practical business applications.
ChatGPT: Under the Hood – Niels Naglé
June 20, 15:10 – 15:50 & June 21, 15:10 – 15:50
Have you ever wondered how ChatGPT works under the hood? Why it performs so well, yet sometimes makes strange errors? We will clearly explain the technology behind ChatGPT, all without the use of complex jargon. This session is perfect for those looking to understand the inner workings of ChatGPT and gain insights into both its impressive capabilities and its occasional quirks.
Responsible AI and the Necessity of Explainability: Realize Value with Confidence – Bernadette Westdorp & Lucia Conde Moreno
June 20, 10:30 – 11:10
In the pursuit of a future where artificial intelligence (AI) adds value to every layer of the organization, it is essential to ensure trust and transparency. Responsible AI and explainability are crucial for this trust, making them indispensable for companies that aim to deploy AI responsibly. During this session, EY and Aigency will present the ‘EY Responsible AI framework’, which offers a multidisciplinary approach to responsible AI usage, while Aigency brings in-depth practical knowledge and real-life cases.
Together, we reveal how companies can not only understand their AI models but also know which actions to take based on the outcomes, thereby realizing the potential value of AI. By combining EY’s strategic insights with Aigency’s technological expertise, we create a concrete approach to responsible AI.
