About this Event
Overview & Event Description
Hosted by Startup Runway, The City of Richardson, and SAT Infotech, this invite-only luncheon brings together top-tier enterprise leaders and technology professionals from across the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex for a day of high-level networking and a complimentary catered lunch.
Keynote Session: Cloud Transformation & Autonomous AI
Our CEO & Founder, Swamy Veera, will kick off the afternoon by anchoring our core session: "Accelerating SAP ERP Cloud Transformation with Autonomous AI." This discussion will break down the practical steps required to leverage high-velocity autonomous automation to optimize cloud journeys while bypassing the traditional friction points of heavy enterprise rollouts.
Featured Panel Session: The Architecture, Data Foundations, and Guardrails behind SAP’s Joule AI
Steering completely clear of surface-level vendor marketing and hype, this candid, peer-to-peer conversation dives straight into the practical engineering, security parameters, and data architecture realities required to move advanced intelligence into production.
Our panel brings together distinguished enterprise technology executives to debate the true operational friction points of scaling autonomous capabilities inside large-scale organizations:
- Rameshwar Balanagu – Co-Founder of the Dallas CTO Club and former Chief Enterprise Architect at UNFI, bringing over 20 years of experience aligning boardroom IT strategy with sustainable operating frameworks, tokenomics, and "Agent Zero Trust" security.
- SriniRao Seelam – Data/AI Transformation Leader, with a proven track record of delivering $150M+ YoY measurable business impact across complex Fortune 500 ecosystems using S/4HANA analytics platforms and Databricks.
- Anil K. Algole – Senior Technical Program Manager of AI/ML Platforms, specializing in disciplined MLOps, model context protocols, and scaling production-grade enterprise platforms.
Together, this panel will tackle what it takes to move past pilot purgatory, how to establish robust information architecture, and how to safely govern multi-agent workflows when core legacy systems are undergoing massive cloud transformations.
