## See the Context Layer in action

Modern AI and analytics only work when the underlying data is trusted and understood. Atlan's Context Layer connects lineage, semantics, quality, and governance into a unified graph. Learn how to solve the "Context Supply" problem with Agentic Data Stewards so teams can ship faster, answer questions with confidence, and scale AI safely from pilot to production.

## Featured session

**May 7, 11:00 AM, M6 Stage - The Perfect Data Product: How Alliander Built an Enterprise Context Layer with Atlan**

Speakers: Ruud van Beusekom, Sr. Product Owner, Alliander / Patrick Beitsma, Solution Architect, Data Analytics & AI, Alliander.

Enterprises are hitting a wall: AI models retrieve data but can't reason about its meaning. Pilots fail because they lack an Enterprise Context Layer, the tribal knowledge and logic required for AI to reason correctly at inference time. Alliander, among the Netherlands' largest grid operators, managing 139k km of infrastructure and 6 million active connections, bridged this gap with Atlan and Open Standards (Bitol). Launching 400+ data products and cutting discovery time to minutes for 20% of their workforce, they found the metadata within (definitions, relations, lineage, quality scores) could serve as the context foundation for agents.

An RSVP for an exclusive meet and greet was offered on the page.

## Beyond the booth: Data After Dark Party

After party, co-hosted by Atlan, after the first day of the summit: live DJs, performances, drinks, food, and conversations.
