# Context > Models: How to make your agents truly intelligent


- **Date:** Friday, Jul 10, 2026
- **Time:** 14:45–16:45 (120 min)
- **Room:** Room Ulm (35 Seats)
- **Event:** World Congress 2026 Europe

## Description

Strong agents are not only defined by the model they use, but by the context they can access and the systems they can act on. In this hands-on workshop, you will design agents that can search across organizational knowledge, reason over business data, operate with awareness of people and work signals, use public information when needed, and interact with systems to create useful outputs. We will use GitHub Copilot in the workshop, but the learnings apply to any coding agent you may use. The goal: build intelligent agents that are grounded, predictable, and deliver reliable output, no matter the model they use.

To get the best out of this workshop, you need
- a Laptop
- a GitHub Account (can also be created for free during the workshop)
- Microsoft Authenticator on your phone
