Making AI Agents Work in Regulated Environments
This hands-on GitLab workshop provides a practical insight into what AI agents can actually do and how to use them safely in regulated environments.
Why attend
AI agents are moving fast, but in regulated industries, control, auditability, and compliance come first.
This session answers the questions that matter:
What can AI agents actually do in GitLab today?
How do you stay in control when AI acts in your pipelines?
Where should AI operate, and where shouldn’t it?
What does a production-ready, governed workflow look like?
What to expect
A S-AIDAP workshop showing how the GitLab Duo Agent Platform fits into real workflows.
You’ll work through:
Planning and issue creation
AI-generated merge requests
Pipeline troubleshooting
Security remediation
All within a secure, guided environment, so you can run the scenario yourself and see where AI adds value in day-to-day workflows.
Breakfast and networking
Eficode sets the stage: why AI adoption differs in regulated industries, what that means in practice, and how this workshop fits into driving responsible, real-world AI delivery.

GitLab cuts through the noise with a clear, up-to-date view of its AI capabilities from GitLab Duo to the Agent Platform.
You’ll see what’s real today, what’s coming next, and how it’s being used in compliance-driven environments worldwide.
No demos. Just straight context so everyone starts the workshop aligned and informed.

Each group shares what they built, what worked, and where things got difficult including practical lessons from using GitLab Duo, process challenges, and common pain points.
You’ll explore how Duo could realistically fit into your own environment, what needs to change operationally, and where the boundaries are
