Masterclass: AI-native agent factory: Accelerating the industry blueprint with architecture as code
In this masterclass, TM Forum will explore the development of the industry’s AI-Native Agent Factory Blueprint and how we are using it to pioneer a fundamental shift from document-centric standards to Architecture as Code. Discover how machine-readable architecture, AI-assisted contribution and an open-source-style peer-review model can dramatically accelerate industry collaboration — shifting expert effort from months of authoring towards continuous review, validation and improvement.
We’ll explore how a living architecture, mapped into ODA and built by the industry, can provide the common foundation needed to industrialise AI agents, embed trust by design and ultimately move from architecture to reusable patterns and implementation artefacts.

Masterclass: Tackling the toughest change challenge: People
Most transformation programs don’t fail on strategy or technology — they fail because change doesn’t take hold in people, teams and leadership. This masterclass focuses on three critical questions: How do I diagnose the real barriers to change? Which interventions will genuinely drive impact? How do I measure if change is actually happening? Through an interactive, hands-on format, participants will work through real scenarios and apply practical frameworks to connect people, culture and organisation to measurable outcomes. The outcome is a clear, repeatable approach to diagnosing, prioritising, and measuring change that can be applied immediately.
