Social media, news, etc -- What social media is doing to/for newsBenoit Wirz
Social media is having three main impacts on news:
1. It provides a new channel for distributing traditional news content, although people primarily share and engage with topics they like rather than brands or editors' choices.
2. Social media itself has become a new source of news, as events can spread virally before traditional media reports on them.
3. Social media is enabling new models of participatory news where audiences both consume and create news, as seen in news startups that rely heavily on social platforms for traffic and content.
At The Wilbert Group, we are (at least) as good as any PR firm anywhere at media relations. In late 2014, we committed to also building the industry-leading program to amplify media hits on social and digital channels. In other words, how do we most strategically promote a client story in the AJC or the WSJ or on CNN?
Any PR person can slap a link on Twitter. But a more sophisticated approach generates way better results.
We have spent months analyzing what we were already doing to amplify hits, thinking deeply about how to drive bottom-line value to clients, building partnerships with the smartest digital firms out there, testing out tools and measuring results.
And at last, we are ready to introduce our own proprietary program called Wilbert Amplify. We’ll be sharing it with clients during the next few months and would love your feedback too.
We’ve always been great at telling client stories. Now we can tell them even LOUDER.

Platform Engineers are Product Managers: 10x Your Developer Experience
Discover how adopting this mindset can transform your platform engineering efforts into a high-impact, developer-centric initiative that empowers your teams and drives organizational success.
Platform engineering has emerged as a critical function that serves as the backbone for engineering teams, providing the tools and capabilities necessary to accelerate delivery. But to truly maximize their impact, platform engineers should embrace a product management mindset. When thinking like product managers, platform engineers better understand their internal customers' needs, prioritize features, and deliver a seamless developer experience that can 10x an engineering team’s productivity.
In this session, Justin Reock, Deputy CTO at DX (getdx.com), will demonstrate that platform engineers are, in fact, product managers for their internal developer customers. By treating the platform as an internally delivered product, and holding it to the same standard and rollout as any product, teams significantly accelerate the successful adoption of developer experience and platform engineering initiatives.

Enterprise Integration Is Dead! Long Live AI-Driven Integration with Apache C...Markus Eisele
We keep hearing that “integration” is old news, with modern architectures and platforms promising frictionless connectivity. So, is enterprise integration really dead? Not exactly! In this session, we’ll talk about how AI-infused applications and tool-calling agents are redefining the concept of integration, especially when combined with the power of Apache Camel.
We will discuss the the role of enterprise integration in an era where Large Language Models (LLMs) and agent-driven automation can interpret business needs, handle routing, and invoke Camel endpoints with minimal developer intervention. You will see how these AI-enabled systems help weave business data, applications, and services together giving us flexibility and freeing us from hardcoding boilerplate of integration flows.
You’ll walk away with:
An updated perspective on the future of “integration” in a world driven by AI, LLMs, and intelligent agents.
Real-world examples of how tool-calling functionality can transform Camel routes into dynamic, adaptive workflows.
Code examples how to merge AI capabilities with Apache Camel to deliver flexible, event-driven architectures at scale.
Roadmap strategies for integrating LLM-powered agents into your enterprise, orchestrating services that previously demanded complex, rigid solutions.
Join us to see why rumours of integration’s relevancy have been greatly exaggerated—and see first hand how Camel, powered by AI, is quietly reinventing how we connect the enterprise.

Dark Dynamism: drones, dark factories and deurbanizationJakub Šimek
Startup villages are the next frontier on the road to network states. This book aims to serve as a practical guide to bootstrap a desired future that is both definite and optimistic, to quote Peter Thiel’s framework.
Dark Dynamism is my second book, a kind of sequel to Bespoke Balajisms I published on Kindle in 2024. The first book was about 90 ideas of Balaji Srinivasan and 10 of my own concepts, I built on top of his thinking.
In Dark Dynamism, I focus on my ideas I played with over the last 8 years, inspired by Balaji Srinivasan, Alexander Bard and many people from the Game B and IDW scenes.

Crazy Incentives and How They Kill Security. How Do You Turn the Wheel?Christian Folini
Everybody is driven by incentives. Good incentives persuade us to do the right thing and patch our servers. Bad incentives make us eat unhealthy food and follow stupid security practices.
There is a huge resource problem in IT, especially in the IT security industry. Therefore, you would expect people to pay attention to the existing incentives and the ones they create with their budget allocation, their awareness training, their security reports, etc.
But reality paints a different picture: Bad incentives all around! We see insane security practices eating valuable time and online training annoying corporate users.
But it's even worse. I've come across incentives that lure companies into creating bad products, and I've seen companies create products that incentivize their customers to waste their time.
It takes people like you and me to say "NO" and stand up for real security!
