> Atlan is hosting Context Conference, bringing together the leaders and builders at the frontier of giving AI the context it needs to understand their business. It runs online on October 28, 2026, from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM ET. Atlan co-founder Prukalpa Sankar opens and closes the day. Leaders from AstraZeneca, BNY and Verizon share why they invest in context and what they get from it. Registrants get early access to The AI Context Gap, a new study from MIT Technology Review Insights. Register: https://atlan.com/context-conference/

## About this session

Ask an agent a business question that spans systems, and without shared definitions, lineage, and governance it can only answer from what it can see. Governed context across the estate is what keeps answers consistent as questions cross from Snowflake into the CRM, the BI tool, and the rest of the business.

Atlan and Snowflake close that gap together. Atlan is where teams build and govern that context: definitions people agree on, lineage back to source, named owners, quality signals. Snowflake Cortex Sense activates it on Snowflake data, so Cortex agents answer from it.

The session shows both sides. Abhinav Vadrevu, the Snowflake PM building Cortex Sense, walks through what it does and how to set it up. Then how a context repo gets built and governed in Atlan, and what happens when a Cortex Sense answer traces back to it.

## Speakers

## What you'll see

1. **A first look at Snowflake Cortex Sense.** From the team building it: what it is, how it brings context to your Snowflake AI agents, and how it speeds up agent development.
2. **Curating trusted context in Atlan.** How teams build and govern business context (definitions, lineage, ownership, and quality) in one place across the whole enterprise estate.
3. **Putting that context to work in Snowflake.** How context from Atlan reaches your Snowflake AI agents through Cortex Sense, so they answer with the business's own meaning, right where teams already work.
4. **Curate context once, use it as your AI stack grows.** Build and govern context once in Atlan, and reuse it across every new agent you adopt, with no rebuilding as your AI stack evolves.
