Session Themes
Day 1 AI Agents x Business Design. Leveraging AI Agents to Transform Tacit Knowledge into Workflow Assets
On the first day, we will delve deeply into advanced case studies from the perspective of AI agents and business design. How was the tacit knowledge of experienced personnel on the ground converted into workflow assets? How was the four-layer context (prior knowledge, instructions, memory, search information) systematically established within the organization? We will unravel the blueprint for a "system" that does not depend on individual prompt skills, using real-life examples.
Day 2 The Frontline of Organizational Redesign. Strategies for Establishing AI as the New OS of an Organization by Redesigning Evaluation Systems, Job Definitions, and Culture
On the second day, we will introduce case studies where management, HR, and the frontline worked in unison to redesign AI-driven evaluation systems and job definitions, implement ROI design, and drive cultural updates through change management. We will discuss strategies for completing the final stage of DX based on the practical knowledge of companies that have successfully permeated AI agents as the new foundation (OS) of their organizations, and how they have executed "organizational redesign."
Featured Sessions
On DAY 2, top runners from each field who are leading the foundational technology, corporate implementation, and business/organizational transformation of AI agents will take the stage.
We will not only share utilization case studies but also three-dimensionally depict the current state of "structural transformation" brought about by AI agents and the possibilities that lie beyond.

The "AI Agent Practical Case Studies," which was announced in advance and generated significant buzz, has finally been completed. It will be distributed to all registered participants.

Each pattern is mapped to the five major learning domains of the "AI Agent Strategist" certification released by the AICX Association in May 2026, and consists of four elements: "Why it's important (WHY)," "Case Examples (CASE)," "Implementation Steps (HOW)," and "Pitfalls (WATCH-OUT)."
