If you’ve done the work, this stage is for you.

SCALECON brings together the people actually building, deploying and leading AI transformation, and gives them a platform to share what they have learned.

Contribute through keynotes, case studies, talkshows, technical deep dives and hands-on workshops.

Not AI hype. Not generic motivation. Not sales pitches.

Real experience. Real lessons. Real impact.

Help Indonesian businesses and professionals move from AI experimentation to real implementation.

Share what you learned. Help others move faster.

The best knowledge often comes from people who have already tried, failed, improved and eventually made something work. SCALECON exists to bring those lessons into the open.

01

Make an impact

Help businesses and professionals turn AI ideas into practical implementation.

02

Share what actually works

Go beyond theory. Share the decisions, trade-offs, failures and lessons behind the result.

03

Meet your peers

Connect with other AI builders, technology leaders, founders and executives working through similar challenges.

04

Reach the right audience

Speak to people actively deciding what AI should do inside their organizations.

Who we want

Practitioners over personalities.

Your job title, follower count or public profile is not what qualifies you for SCALECON.

Relevant experience does.

  1. 01

    Practitioners

    You’ve taken AI beyond experimentation and can explain what implementation actually required.

  2. 02

    Builders & Architects

    You’ve designed agents, workflows, systems or infrastructure that interact with real data and software.

  3. 03

    Business & Technology Leaders

    You’ve led meaningful AI transformation and can explain what changed in the organization or business.

  4. 04

    Security, Risk & Governance Leaders

    You’ve dealt with identity, permissions, data, compliance, oversight or accountability around AI.

  5. 05

    Researchers & Innovators

    You’re exploring capabilities that can materially change how organizations build and operate with AI.

Recognition is welcome.
Relevant expertise is required.

SCALECON is not looking for:

  • Generic “AI will change everything” presentations
  • Motivational AI talks without relevant experience
  • Trend commentary without original insight
  • Sales pitches disguised as education
  • Product demos without meaningful implementation lessons

Being well known is absolutely fine. Expertise is what earns the stage.

There’s more than one way to contribute.

Not every expert needs a keynote. Some knowledge works better as a conversation. Some needs architecture diagrams. Some needs a laptop and 90 minutes.

Enterprise Keynote

~20 min

Big ideas grounded in real experience.

Production Case Study

~20 min

Problem → implementation → outcome → lessons.

Executive Fireside / Talkshow

30–45 min

Candid conversations with leaders driving AI transformation.

Technical Deep Dive

30–45 min

Architecture, agents, data, orchestration, security and engineering trade-offs.

Pre-Event Workshop

~90 min · Onsite

Hands-on learning for Builder and VIP attendees.

Post-Event Masterclass

~90 min · Online

Deeper implementation learning and Q&A after conference day.

Teach something worth remembering.

SCALECON is built around implementation. Your session does not need to cover everything below, but it should answer some of these questions well.

  1. 01What problem were you trying to solve?
  2. 02What did you actually build or change?
  3. 03Which systems, workflows or data were involved?
  4. 04What failed or surprised you?
  5. 05What changed in the business?
  6. 06How did you manage risk and oversight?
  7. 07How did you know whether it worked?
  8. 08What can someone else apply next?

Teach first. Sell never.

The people who can put your knowledge to work.

SCALECON brings business direction and technical execution together.

1,000+

business and technology professionals

Executive

CEOs, CIOs, CTOs, CDOs, and business owners

Enterprise

AI, data, operations, security, and risk leaders

Builders

developers and architects who influence adoption

These aren’t people coming simply to hear what’s new.

They’re coming to understand what they should do next.

More than a speaking slot.

We want SCALECON to be valuable for the people contributing their knowledge too.

Meaningful Audience

Share with people who genuinely want to understand and implement AI.

Speaker & AI Leaders Gathering

Join fellow speakers and selected business and technology leaders for deeper conversations away from the stage.

VIP Networking Access

Continue conversations with executives, practitioners and ecosystem leaders throughout the event.

Speaker Lounge

A dedicated place to prepare, meet fellow speakers or recharge.

Professional Content

Selected sessions and insights may be professionally captured and shared after the event.

SCALECON Speaker Community

Become part of a carefully curated network of people building and leading AI transformation.

And yes, there will be good coffee.

Join a growing community of builders and leaders.

Previous SCALECON editions have brought together founders, CTOs, engineering leaders, AI practitioners, cybersecurity specialists and enterprise technology leaders.

2027 raises the bar again, toward real Agentic AI implementation.

Have something worth sharing?

Tell us briefly what you’ve done and what others could learn from it. You don’t need a finished presentation. If there is a strong fit, our program team can help shape the session with you.

Optional. Share whichever best represents your work.

Briefly describe your firsthand AI experience. A few sentences are enough.

Share the most useful lesson, result, mistake or insight.

How would you like to contribute?

Pick as many as fit. If you are not sure, say so and we will suggest one.

Optional. A working title is enough, and we can refine it together.

Travel considerations, relevant links, workshop requirements or anything else useful.

Every proposal is reviewed by the SCALECON program team. Submission does not guarantee a speaking slot.

Have more than one idea? You can submit another proposal anytime.

Great experts don’t always apply to conferences.

If you know an exceptional practitioner, builder, researcher or business leader whose experience could help others, we’d love to know about them.

What have they actually done? A few sentences are plenty.

Optional. A warm introduction helps, but we are happy to reach out ourselves.

Speaker questions

What practitioners ask before proposing a session.

Who should apply to speak at SCALECON?

AI practitioners, builders, researchers, founders and business or technology leaders with genuine experience implementing or leading AI initiatives.

You don't need to be a professional speaker. Relevant experience matters more than stage experience.

Do I need to be an Agentic AI engineer?

No.

We welcome technical experts as well as business leaders who have led real AI transformation.

Your experience may be technical, operational, strategic, organizational, security-related or business-focused.

Are you looking for famous speakers?

We're looking for relevant experts, whether they're widely known or not.

Popularity and follower count don't determine speaker selection.

Expertise, experience and audience value do.

Are motivational speakers accepted?

SCALECON is not designed around generic motivational talks.

Inspiration is welcome when it comes from genuine experience, but every session should leave the audience with useful knowledge or insight.

Does my AI project need to have succeeded?

No.

Failures, redesigns and unexpected outcomes often produce the best lessons.

Tell us what happened and what others can learn from it.

Can I propose more than one topic?

Yes.

You may submit multiple ideas.

Our program team may also recommend a different format if we believe your experience would work better as a fireside, deep dive, case study or workshop.

What speaking formats are available?

SCALECON includes keynotes, case studies, firesides and talkshows, technical deep dives, panels, live walkthroughs, pre-event workshops and post-event masterclasses.

Can Sponsor Partners speak at SCALECON?

Yes, depending on the sponsorship package.

However, every proposed topic must still align with The Agentic Enterprise and meet SCALECON's editorial and educational standards.

Sponsorship does not turn the stage into a sales presentation.

Can Sponsor Partners participate in workshops?

Yes, where included in the selected sponsorship package.

Workshop content must provide genuine educational or hands-on value and align with SCALECON's mission.

Can I show my company's technology or product?

Yes, when it is genuinely part of the implementation being taught.

Explain the problem, decisions, architecture, outcomes and lessons, not just product features.

Does SCALECON pay speaker fees?

There is no standard speaker fee for regular practitioner, case-study or executive sessions.

Selected workshops, invited international speakers and exceptional engagements may receive an honorarium or other support on a case-by-case basis.

Does SCALECON cover flights or accommodation?

Travel support may be available for selected invited speakers, particularly those travelling internationally.

Arrangements are considered individually.

Are workshop instructors compensated?

Selected workshop instructors may receive an honorarium depending on preparation requirements, format and circumstances.

Arrangements are confirmed individually.

What language can I speak in?

Sessions may be delivered in Bahasa Indonesia or English.

Choose the language in which you can communicate your expertise most clearly.

What if I have strong expertise but little speaking experience?

Please apply.

SCALECON values real expertise more than polished stage performance.

Our team can help selected speakers shape the story and presentation.

Will SCALECON help me prepare?

Yes.

Selected speakers may receive content review and preparation support to make the session clear, useful and appropriate for the SCALECON audience.

Will sessions be recorded?

Selected sessions may be professionally recorded and shared through SCALECON channels, subject to speaker rights and agreement.

Details will be confirmed with selected speakers.

Who owns my presentation and content?

You retain ownership of your original intellectual property.

Any recording or distribution rights required by SCALECON should be clearly agreed with selected speakers.

Do I need to share confidential company information?

No.

Only share information you are authorized to disclose.

You can teach the decisions, approach and lessons without revealing confidential data, source code or proprietary information.

Does submitting a proposal guarantee a speaking slot?

No.

SCALECON intentionally curates its program to protect content quality and maintain the right mix of business, technical and implementation perspectives.

Can SCALECON invite speakers who haven't applied?

Yes.

SCALECON actively identifies and invites practitioners and leaders whose experience could be valuable to the audience.

The open application helps us discover exceptional people beyond our existing network.

What matters most when you select a speaker?

One question:

Have you learned something through real experience that could genuinely help someone else?

If yes, we'd like to hear from you.

Something you learned could save someone else months of work.

If you’ve built it, implemented it, led it, secured it, scaled it, or learned the hard way why it didn’t work, bring that experience to SCALECON. Help Indonesia move from AI experimentation to real implementation.
