Introducing JetBrains Air. Make AI agents work for your company.

Discover JetBrains Air and its approach to agentic software development. In this session, Kris Kang introduces the vision behind Air and explores how AI agents can become part of your team’s everyday work. Learn what this shift means for developers and engineering leaders, how to identify opportunities for adoption, and what it takes to turn the potential of AI agents into practical value for your company.

What Tech Leaders Should Watch Next: Insights From Developer Ecosystem 2026

AI is now part of everyday development – but adoption is only the beginning. AI spending is set to grow, while evidence of returns remains uneven.

Based on JetBrains’ Developer Ecosystem Survey 2026 (28,945 developers across 198 countries), this session examines how developers and software teams are using AI coding agents, where quality and trust still require human judgment, and what the rest of our data says about careers, well-being, focus, and the wider software market.

Join us for a grounded view of where development is heading – and what tech leaders should pay attention to next.

From IDE to Agentic Development Environment

IntelliJ IDEA is evolving into an agentic development environment. See how JetBrains Air brings AI agents, parallel sessions, skills, and MCP tools into the development workflow, with a hands-on demo of agents generating code and debugging with IDE tools. We'll also explore how this open environment supports different agents and models, followed by a Netflix case study on making AI coding agents more efficient.

Build AI Applications Like Normal Software

AI frameworks often ship with a philosophy: how work should flow, where state should live, and how every component should fit together. When an application needs something different, the framework’s abstractions become the developer’s constraints.

A practical alternative draws on decades of familiar software engineering: modular components, explicit interfaces and independently chosen layers. Through examples from A11, this talk explores how these principles support responsive, concurrent and controllable AI applications while keeping developers in control of their architecture.

Air Governance. Adopt AI at scale with Air Governance.

How do you scale AI adoption while keeping your organization in control? In this session, Kris Kang explores Air Governance and the questions engineering leaders face as AI becomes part of everyday development. From establishing policies and responsibilities to balancing developer autonomy with organizational oversight, discover how to approach adoption across teams and create the conditions for using AI confidently at scale.
