# Speaking — Tamba Sheku Lamin

Keynotes, conference talks, executive briefings, workshops, panels and podcasts on agentic-first architecture, AI-led delivery, composable estates, capability building and digital public goods.

## Topics

### Agentic-first architecture

What changes in an enterprise architecture when agents are first-class actors: reference architecture, protocol layers such as MCP and A2A, data strategy as agent strategy, model selection as an architectural decision, and the governance language that determines how precise your human oversight can be.

- For: Enterprise and solution architects, CTOs and heads of engineering, Platform vendors and their partners
- Formats: Keynote, Conference talk, Executive briefing, Podcast

### Running an AI-led SDLC and AI-led DevSecOps

How a delivery team actually runs with agentic coding tools: the rules, hooks, commands and purpose-built agents, the review gates and evidence trail an enterprise will accept, and what changes for architects, testers and security. Drawn from building agentic tooling used on programmes valued at over $10M.

- For: Delivery leaders, Engineering managers, Architecture guilds, Security and quality functions
- Formats: Conference talk, Half-day workshop, Internal town hall

### From monolith to MACH, and what comes after

Composable and MACH estates in practice: platform selection, DXP, CMS and MarTech consolidation, the migrations that go wrong, and how to design an estate that can absorb agents without another rewrite.

- For: Digital and marketing technology leaders, Architects, Platform and integrator partners
- Formats: Conference talk, Vendor and partner events, Executive briefing

### Building architecture teams that run without you

Establishing delivery centres in Mexico, Costa Rica and India and handing each to local leadership; developing successor architects; the faculty practice that produced two architecture-school awards; and why capability transfer is the deliverable, not the afterthought.

- For: Practice and delivery leaders, Founders and CEOs, Capacity-building and donor programmes
- Formats: Keynote, Leadership offsite, Panel

### Digital public goods and civic technology in West Africa

Lessons from the Sierra Leone Learning Passport, the open election data platform adopted by the Independent Media Commission, election-violence monitoring for IFES in the Maldives and Senegal, and low-power ICT laboratories for schools: designing for low bandwidth, institutional continuity and local ownership.

- For: Donors and development agencies, Governments and regulators, Universities, Civic-tech communities
- Formats: Keynote, Panel, Workshop

### Teaching as the core skill of a technologist

Twenty-five years of paid teaching, from secondary-school mathematics to enterprise architects: why the ability to teach is what makes architecture, delivery and leadership transferable, and how to build it into a team.

- For: Universities and bootcamps, Engineering leadership, Early-career programmes
- Formats: Keynote, Commencement and convocation, Podcast
