- Raivis Berovskis from Emergn will share a talk “3 Years Later: Lessons Learned (So Far)”
It’s been three years since our industry was thrown into the new reality of “AI everywhere”. Raivis will share what he knows. The small wins, the hidden costs, and what the team learned to pay attention to. Expect specific examples, how they point to more global problems and takeaways on how to solve the problems or mitigate them. No hype, no doom—just a pragmatic look at where AI earns its keep and where it’s still more trouble than it’s worth.

At the moment he is focused on creating communication system solutions for Emergn and its clients
- Kristaps Mežavilks from Ubiquiti will give a talk “The Art of Test Automation in a Device Zoo”
Join us for a session with Kristaps, as he explores the challenges and strategies behind building effective test automation in a complex ecosystem of physical devices. In this talk, Kristaps will share how test automation is designed and scaled across a diverse “device zoo” — ranging from routers to switches & access points – with a focus on speed, reliability, and maintainability.
You’ll gain practical insights into architecting test frameworks, handling hardware variability, and improving feedback loops. Whether you’re testing firmware, APIs, or full-stack integrations, expect to walk away with ideas you can apply in your own hardware-software environments.
