CONFERENCE DAY ONE

2:00 PM Presentation: Engineering the Future: IKEA’s Evolution into a Platform of Platforms

As modern practices and not least AI, reshapes the engineering landscape, the role of a central organisation is no longer just about providing tools - it's about architecting a "Platform of Platforms". This unified ecosystem bridges the gap between infrastructure and innovation, ensuring that capabilities serve not as add-ons, but as foundational layers of the developer experience and user journeys.

To get those journeys right, we need the right context and the data quality, we explore the necessity of data liquidity and quality, ensuring that the right data is accessible, secure, and structured to power next-generation AI augmentation.

• Shifting from fragmented entry points to a centralised platform core

• Embedding AI as a foundational layer of the developer experience rather than an add on

• Offloading complexity to the platform so developers can focus on delivering business value
