The world's first breastfeeding monitor

Coroflo has developed the world’s first accurate breastfeeding monitor, Coro. Coroflo’s mission is to empower women to achieve their breastfeeding goals through accurate information.

Scientific research recommends that mothers breastfeed exclusively for 6 months and beyond. In the United States, 85% of mothers initiate breastfeeding, yet only 27% reach the six-month exclusive milestone. This trend is mirrored in Europe, where the average falls below 25%.

Selling Empathy: Unleashing the Power for a Flourishing UX in a Machine-Dominated Realm

In my professional journey across different organizations, I've faced several challenges that bring complexities to the application of UX methodologies:

2. The nascent state of UX team added an additional layer of complexity to processes.

Introducing InReality - verifying reality in the age of AI

Introducing InReality.

We are tackling a huge issue that many of us come across every day - not being able to tell the difference between AI generated and real content. Whilst this could be harmless in some situations, in others it can lead to fraud and misinformation.

We are solving the problem differently. Instead of trying to detect when there is AI present, we approach the problem from another angle, certifying the real content instead. Any content you generate, photos, videos, audio etc can be certified as real using our unique patented technology.… read more

Defending critical networks against AI-scaled threats

AI is scaling how attacks reach and hide inside critical infrastructure. Adversaries now run coordinated campaigns against the networks that keep society operating, automating reconnaissance, tailoring phishing, and launching DDoS attacks capable of disrupting telecom, energy, and transport systems within minutes.
The dominant tactic is invisibility. Last year, 63% of network operators were affected by living‑off‑the‑land intrusions, where attackers abused trusted tools and routine administrative workflows. In telecom environments, they embed themselves in control‑plane systems, lawful… read more

Thank you, IT industry for the invite!

This is the story of a girl from a small town, with a mix of slightly technical profile and mostly social-oriented skills and values.

Leadership in the AI era: Tackling the ‘Learning Debt’ and Shaping Inclusive Growth

While AI offers smart solutions for resolving technical debt, it amplifies an even greater challenge: the 'learning debt'. Transitioning from today’s strained labor market to a future of inclusive, AI-driven growth is no easy feat and demands immediate, intentional focus from us all.
This session explores how to prepare for an AI-powered future and how leaders can bridge the perception gap—empowering employees to see AI as an enabler rather than a threat—while remaining transparent not only about its benefits, but also its disruptive impacts and strategies for mitigation.… read more

AI over Legacy Systems

Legacy systems power some of the most critical products and services we rely on, but they also carry constraints: brittle integrations, limited documentation, siloed knowledge, and high risk when change is introduced. AI is often positioned as a “replacement” story, yet most organizations need an “overlay” approach: adding intelligence on top of what already works, without disrupting core operations.

In this session, we’ll explore practical patterns for applying AI over legacy systems: safely and incrementally. We’ll cover where AI can create immediate value (e.g., easier… read more
