Hi Reader,

APIOps is becoming the operating model for APIs—especially as AI agents become first-class consumers.

This shift is exposing gaps in how APIs are designed, governed, and operated, pushing many teams to rethink how APIs are managed in practice.

APIOps Helsinki (June 2–3) is built around this idea.
This is not a typical conference but a working event for teams building and running API platforms in real-world conditions.

The idea is simple:​
Bring an APIOps problem. Leave with clearer decisions.

The Full APIOps Helsinki agenda is now live.
Here are a few sessions that may be most relevant depending on your role:

For Platform Owners

• How API strategies compete with AI investments
  (Claire Barrett)
• Turning API platforms into revenue (Allan Knabe)
• Clinic: Design Your APIOps Operating Model
  (Marjukka Niinioja)
• Panel: Are APIs Still the Platform, or Are AI Agents Replacing Them? (Moderator: Oscar Santolalla)

For Architects

• From API gateways to AI gateways (Dan Erez)
• Why IAM becomes the foundation for agent ecosystems (Tomas Bolin)
• Designing APIs for AI agents (Mike Jackson)
• Beyond OpenAPI: Workflows That AI Agents Can Actually Execute (Frank Kilcommins)

For Senior Engineers

• Workshop: Create an MCP Wrapper for Your API
  (Jürgen Buchmann)
• Boosting API testing (Katerina Kairo)
• Hands-on: AI Lab – APIs, MCP and Agent Integrations (Merja Kajava)

The focus throughout the program is on practical examples and real implementations. Workshops, unconference sessions, and clinics provide concrete next steps you can apply in your work.

You’ll be working alongside leaders and practitioners from companies like:

• OP Financial Group
• ASSA ABLOY
• If Insurance
• Axway
• Fennia
• APIsFirst
• Kong
• and others across enterprise and platform teams

If you're responsible for API platforms, IAM, or product strategy in an AI-driven environment, this event is designed for you.
