Event: Financial Services Agent Workshop
Time: 6:00 – 9:00 PM
Places: 60
Bring a laptop. Platform access, food and drinks are on us.

Financial services and insurance teams are evaluating conversational AI, and most evaluations stall at the demo. Most demos stop at the prototype. This one doesn't.

Spend an evening at our London office with the engineers who build the platform. The first hour is the case for agentic, with live customer deployments and the numbers behind them. The rest is a 90-minute build sprint: teams of five to seven, one PolyAI engineer or product manager per table, and a working financial services or insurance agent on the screen by nine. You will build on the same three products our enterprise customers ship on — the ADK in your own environment, the APIs that carry the integration layer, and Agent Studio for design and governance.

Every attendee leaves with an agent they built themselves. “I built it myself in 90 minutes” is more persuasive than any case study.

What you will do

During this session, you will:

Go from blank canvas to a working agent, timed, in one sitting
Take the path to production: deployment, fine tuning and observability, not a sandbox dead end
Put compliance-ready guardrails around a regulated conversation
See how an agent self-heals when a live call goes sideways
Leave with the agent you built, and the tacos and margarita slushies that come with a happy hour

Who should come

The room skews technical on purpose: engineers, solution architects, and innovation and transformation leads in financial services and insurance. If you would rather read the code than the slide, this evening is built for you.

AWS and a small group of ISV partners are co-hosting, and their engineers will be building at the tables alongside ours.
