## Description

AI is transforming how applications interact, reason, and respond—and developers are at the forefront of this shift. In this session, we’ll explore how to fuse your applications with intelligent agents using Azure AI Foundry, Microsoft’s platform for building, orchestrating, and scaling AI-native solutions.
 
You’ll learn how Azure AI empowers developers with open integration across agent SDKs and large language models (LLMs)—including both proprietary and open-source options—giving you the flexibility to choose the right tools for your stack.
 
We’ll walk through real-world architectures, integration patterns, and best practices to help you bring intelligent, adaptive behavior into your apps. Whether you're building copilots, automating workflows, or enhancing user experiences, this session is designed to inspire you to start—or continue—your journey toward building AI-enhanced applications.
