Talks
Cristina Iscenco
Former orchestra conductor turned tech founder. Cristina started building ShiftLoom — a predictive AI tool for complex organisations — with Lovable, then switched to Claude Code mid-prototype. The result: a product that has Claude integrated into the tool itself, not just into the build process.
Ian Aizikovich
Non-technical solo founder who built an entire AI perception risk platform with Claude Code. Flarepoint scans what major AI models tell investors and regulators about companies, detecting AI fabrications. Ian described it as "an example of what can be coded solely with Claude" — it's now his full-time job.
Olly Kovalieva
Travelled from Lisbon to share how she built VibeCon — a global virtual conference on vibe coding — entirely through Claude Code. Her stack: Claude Code + VS Code, zero developers hired. She built a LinkedIn outreach tool, landing page, Stripe integration, CRM, email campaigns, and Meta Pixel tracking. The results after one month: 800+ registrations, 18 speakers (from Anthropic, Microsoft, GitHub, Google DeepMind and more), and $3K in revenue — with zero lines of code written manually.
Aaditya Chintalapati
From zero coding experience to a 10-agent M&A due diligence platform — built entirely in Claude Code. Aaditya works at ExMachina Investment Partners and built Aigis Analytics to automate the due diligence process that investment professionals do manually.
Chloe Hall
Former neuroscientist who "learned to code against her will," now an investment associate at Midlands Mindforge. Chloe shared practical guidance on moving between Claude Code and manual coding — when to let Claude drive, when to step in yourself, and how to save credits along the way. Her slide featured Before/After Claude Code memes.
Rob Coward
Rob walked through his journey building the Errand AI task automation tool — consistently driving features from proposal through implementation, verification and deployment with a very high success rate. His toolchain includes the OpenSpec framework, Hindsight Memory, Serena MCP Server, Playwright MCP, and Grafana MCP. He published a blog post with his slide deck and tools after the event.
Vita Shafinska
Creator turned entrepreneur with 650K+ followers on Instagram, founder of StarCreative marketing agency and GCreators — an AI-native platform built for the next generation of creators. Vita shared what actually moves the needle when combining AI with content creation, drawn from her experience testing, failing, iterating and scaling across platforms.
