Integration like it's 2026: Contica's live event in Gothenburg 8 October 2026 with Harold Campos, Ahmed Bayoumy and Divya Swarnkar

Gothenburg · 8 October 2026

Integration like it’s 2026

An afternoon about AI in integration and automation work. On stage we migrate a BizTalk solution, build an agent from scratch, and automate a business process from nothing but a description, with the people who build Azure Logic Apps at Microsoft.

You do not need to be able to build integrations to be here. If you can describe something you do by hand today, this afternoon is for you too.

Thursday 8 October. Doors 14:00, starts 14:30, ends 19:00
Contica, Masthamnsgatan 1, 413 29 Gothenburg
In English, because Harold and Divya are presenting. Free.

50 seats. Sign up closes 6 October, or when we are full. Bring a laptop if you are staying for the hackathon.

Two minutes. Pick your track, tell us about food.

Agenda

Two tracks that meet in the middle

All three sessions are about AI, and in all three something gets built while you watch. Two rooms at 14:30, one room at 16:00, and at 17:00 you pick a room again and build something yourself. There are two times you can join: 14:00 or 15:30.

No slide marathon. No clean demo tenant. No recording. When the tooling gets something wrong on stage, you get to see that too. And no sales pitch: if you work with another partner today, come anyway, and bring them along.

14:00

Doors open. Join here for the whole afternoon. Coffee, and a chance to work out which room you want to be in at 14:30.

14:30 to 15:30

Let AI agents help you migrate from BizTalk

The question every BizTalk owner is asking right now: can AI actually speed up your migration? We run the Logic Apps Migration Agent live against real artifacts, read what came out the other end, and show what it got right and what it got wrong. Then how you test and tune the result, because reading the output is the new job.

Context

Microsoft on the Logic Apps Migration Agent, and what it takes to bring an existing integration platform over to Logic Apps Standard.

You leave with

A clear view of what the Migration Agent does to an estate like yours, what it cannot decide for you, and what a first wave would look like.

AI that does something rather than answers something. We build an agent in Microsoft Foundry from nothing, give it tools, and get to the part that matters: it has its own identity in your tenant, so it reaches exactly the systems you allowed and nothing else.

You leave with

What it actually takes to stand up an agent that is allowed to touch a production system, and where the real work sits.

15:30

Break. Or join here instead. Both rooms meet over coffee. Come at 15:30 if the automation hour at 16:00 is what you came for.

Automate like it’s 2026

If you can describe a business process, you can automate it

Not integration this time, automation. Logic Apps Automation is a new Logic Apps SKU, open to anyone who can describe a process. You say what should happen in plain language and the AI assistant drafts the workflow, the actions and the expressions. Underneath sits the same Logic Apps platform, so identity, networking and governance are there from day one instead of bolted on later. Agents are first-class actions, including the ones built in Foundry.

Bring something you currently do by hand. That is the only preparation this hour needs.

You leave with

The pattern you would reuse for the next twenty, and a straight answer on what is ready for production and what is still preview.

Hands on · pick a track again

BizTalk track

Migration tooling

Run the Migration Agent yourself against a prepared estate, with people who do this for a living at the table. Leave knowing what you would point it at on Monday, and what you would not.

Azure track

Agents and automation

Build something of your own in Microsoft Foundry or Logic Apps Automation. Bring a process from your own job if you have one, however unglamorous. We have cases ready if you do not.

All six of them stay for the hackathon. So the people who build these products are in the room while you try it yourself. Bring a laptop, nothing else. We provide the environment, the accounts and the cases. Food and something to drink from 17:00.

19:00

The evening ends. We stay on for anyone who wants to. Leave whenever you need to.

Why come

Still migrating, building and automating like it’s 2025?

AI is not a question any more. It is in the tooling. The distance from an idea, to a proposal, to something running in production has collapsed, and integration work is no exception.

So we built this afternoon around the three things we know best. AI on a BizTalk migration. An agentic flow where the limit is your imagination rather than your backlog. And automation where you do not need to write code, only to describe your process. AI has moved into our world and it is staying, and together with Microsoft we want to show you where it wins ground in the war on manual work.

You go home with a pattern you can run on Monday, a straight answer on what is production ready and what is still preview, and six people who do this every week.

Come and watch something you do by hand get built while you describe it.

Sign up

Save your seat

Two minutes. Tell us when you want to start and which room, and bring a colleague if you want to. We send everything else a week before.

Not sure what to pick? Take the BizTalk room at 14:30 if you still have BizTalk in production. Take the Azure room at 14:30 if you build in Azure yourself. Choose the 16:00 start if you own a process rather than a platform and the automation hour is what you came for. From 16:00 everyone is in the same room either way.

Where do you want to start?

Machine learning webinar: The AI Sweet Spot part 2: Beyond LLMs

LLMs get all the attention – but they are not the only AI model worth knowing about. In part 2 of The AI Sweet Spot, Contica and DevScope go beyond the hype and break down which machine learning models actually fit different business problems. Real cases, practical guidance, and a clearer picture of where AI can create value in your organization.

Webinar: The AI sweet spot: Learn to find where AI transforms your business processes

Webinar on March 25: The AI sweet spot is where system integration meets AI – and that’s exactly where business processes get transformed. Contica brings deep integration expertise; DevScope brings serious knowledge in AI, BI and data analytics. Together, we walk through real-world cases where this combination eliminated manual work and delivered measurable business value. No hype. Just practical examples that show you how to find the same opportunities in your own organization.
