The Cost of AI-Powered Software Development:
How to Scale AI Without Losing Control of Costs

ON DEMAND WEBINAR
Duration: 1 hour

GitHub Copilot and AI-powered development tools are transforming software engineering. But, as organisations move beyond pilots, many are facing new challenges around consumption, budgeting, governance and ROI.

Join Brent Beer (GitHub), Alexey Taranenko (EPAM) and Sergio Sisternes (EPAM) as they discuss how technology leaders can scale AI-assisted development while maintaining control of costs and demonstrating business value. In this session, we'll explore:

  • How do we measure the true value of GitHub Copilot?
  • What does GitHub's new token-based consumption model mean for budgets and forecasting?
  • How can organisations avoid unexpected AI costs as adoption grows?
  • What governance practices should be in place before scaling AI agents?
  • How will software engineering evolve as we move towards increasingly autonomous development workflows?


Alongside these challenges, the panel will share insights from the latest GitHub Copilot innovations and Microsoft Build announcements, as well as practical approaches to maximising adoption, controlling spend and preparing for the next generation of AI-powered software delivery.
