CONFERENCE DAY ONE

10:00 AM Presentation: SEB's Developer Portal Revolution: Golden Paths for Speed, Safety and Simplicity

With over 2,000 developers navigating legacy systems, heavy regulation and complex environments, SEB is building a powerful internal developer portal to cut friction, standardise workflows and help engineers ship faster with greater confidence. In this session, Joachim Karlsson reveals how SEB is defining golden paths, reducing choices and embedding compliance directly into the developer journey, creating a modern, streamlined experience.

• Creating golden paths that simplify decisions and accelerate delivery across legacy heavy teams

• Building a central portal that unifies tooling, speeds access and strengthens compliance by design

• Supporting safe AI adoption as usage increases, ensuring speed without compromising security

CONFERENCE DAY TWO

2:00 PM Panel Discussion: Fixing Usability Gaps Before They Become Tech Debt

When usability breaks down, developers create shadow tooling, ignore guardrails and build their own paths which is leaving organisations with fragmented systems and more risk. This discussion unpacks why developers avoid the "official way," what usability failures look like in the real world, and how leaders rebuild trust through clarity, speed and better design.

• Identifying the usability pain points that push engineers toward alternatives

• Rebuilding platform flows around speed, transparency and discoverability

• Collaborating with developers to co design features and prevent tool divergence
