How can I increase sales and help the customer understand the value of your product even before the purchase?

VR technologies allow you to not just talk about a product or service, but also give the customer the opportunity to see, study and practically "feel" the offer even before it is implemented in the physical world.

At the online event, we will show how virtual reality transforms from a spectacular technology into a practical tool for product presentation and customer service.

You'll find out:

— how VR helps to present a product more vividly and increase its perceived value;

— how to show a client an object that has not yet been built or is located in another part of the world;

— how VR tours can be integrated into the sales and project presentation process;

— how does a VR presentation differ from conventional renderers, videos, and 3D visualizations;

— what business tasks can be solved with the help of VR today;

— how to use VR in meetings with clients, sales offices, showrooms and exhibitions.

Where can I use VR?

VR glasses can be used for presentations.:

— 🏙️ residential and commercial real estate - apartments, residential complexes, offices and business centers;

— architectural and development projects before the start or completion of construction;

— interior and furniture design — the client can see the future interior in advance;

— hotels, resorts and tourist sites — virtually get acquainted with the room, territory or location;

— 🍽️ restaurants, cafes and public spaces;

— cars and other complex products that are important to show in volume and detail;

— 🏭 industrial equipment and production facilities;

— 🏢 showrooms, exhibition stands, and commercial spaces;

— educational and presentation services, where immersion and visual demonstration are important.

Join the online meeting and learn how to use VR technologies to effectively present a product and build a new customer experience.

Over the past couple of years, AI has been introduced almost everywhere. Now the hype is subsiding and even skepticism towards technology is emerging, and people are tired of the word itself.

Therefore, at the Awara IT webinar, we want to shift the focus a little and talk about what actually works in HR.

Why 80/20? Because AI is more of an addition, rather than a solution to all problems.

Date: October 21st
Time: 16:00 (Almaty)

At the webinar:

• Let's look at which IT solutions will help increase employee engagement, motivation, and opportunities for development. Let's show some examples.
• Let's talk about how attitudes towards AI have changed recently and where it complements the skills of employees.
• Let's talk about the training and skills that employees need to work now.
• Let's also share our experience: what we tried to implement in our HR projects, where we got a good result, where we made a mistake, and what conclusions we drew.

For whom:

HRD, HR department heads, HRBP, L&D, and colleagues who are responsible for HR processes, employee engagement, and development.

What you will get after the webinar:

• the most demanded HR automation solutions in Kazakhstan in 2025-2026 using the example of Awara IT projects and lessons learned 
• understanding where AI is really needed and where basic automation is sufficient;
• learn how to calculate ROI from using AI in HR.

We suggest not looking for where else to introduce new technologies, but first understand the task and build the main process.

The AI here is the very 20% that can enhance the other 80%.

Participation is free, registration is only required.

Startups sell technology. Corporations buy results, trust, and manageable risk. What does it take to turn your AI product into a signed contract?

🎤 Darkhan Kyrykbayev - Managing Director of Digital Transformation and Strategy at Nomad Insurance, former CEO of a digital healthcare product serving over 8 million users, and a startup ecosystem mentor and expert.

At the session, we’ll discuss:
- Who within a corporation decides whether to buy your AI product?
- Why do pilots fail to turn into contracts?
- How do you navigate compliance and regulatory requirements?
- How do you prove your product’s value to the business?

We’ll explore what your AI product needs for a corporation to say “yes.”

About the webinar

AI bots look great in demos but make mistakes with real people. We built a test bench called Poligon, where made-up customers message the bot the way real people do. They send messages in fragments, make typos, and change their minds. We judge the result by what the bot actually recorded in the system, not by what it replied.

What we'll show

- How Poligon works. Code-based checks, a jury of three models from different vendors, and disputed cases.
- Live demo. Our Slack bot for vacation requests passes only 3 of 9 scenarios with a real employee because it loses the conversation context. We'll show how we're fixing it.
- Approaches from our projects. Expert reference answers, tests on real product tasks, and checks against random guessing.

Who it's for
Teams launching or already running AI bots in support, sales, appointment booking, and internal services. Product managers, QA engineers, developers, and founders.

Want to test your own bot? At the end of the webinar, you can discuss a free test with the speaker in exchange for feedback.

Speaker: Vladislav Kovalsky, AI Systems Architect, SpurIT

Format: online, 60–90 minutes.

Date and time: Tuesday, October 27, 7:00 PM Astana time (UTC+5).

На собеседовании уже спрашивают, как вы работаете с AI. А когда агент ошибётся в проде, отвечать всё равно вам. Четыре практика обсудят, чего компании ждут от инженеров и где проходит граница доверия AI.Часть 1 – чего ждут на собеседованиях: что компании пишут в требованиях к инженерам про AI, чем отличаются ожидания стартапа, enterprise и AI-native компании, где хватит показать, как вы пишете код с AI, а где спросят про evals, observability и guardrails.Часть 2 – что нельзя отдавать агенту: где граница делегирования, кто отвечает за решение, если код писал агент, какие навыки инженеру нельзя терять.В конце – вопросы из зала и презентация курсов «AI-Driven Development» (Level 1) и «Продуктовая AI-разработка» (Level 2).Участники:Павел Вейник, Solution Architect – модераторСергей Голубев, Product Manager & AI CreatorИлья Чекун, Tech Lead, AI EngineerНикита Шумилин, Solution Architect, AI EngineerДля кого: разработчики, техлиды и архитекторы, которые готовятся к собеседованиям или проводят их сами, и те, кто решает, что в команде можно отдавать агентам.

Цифровой кодекс РК вступил в силу в июле 2026 года. Правила ЭД/ЭЦП изменились, а 57% компаний Казахстана всё ещё не используют CRM, и лишь 4,6% имеют полный охват процессов. При этом KMF Банк за 4 месяца отказался от бумаги в сети из 14 филиалов и 100+ отделений. Разберём, как связать существующие системы в единый управляемый контур — и что это значит в новых правилах.

Your AI found the signal. Can it find the fix? Alerts and tickets keep piling up, and vendor numbers like “80% autonomous” roughly halve in production. Join Andersen experts for a free online session on how AI-assisted operations and support work in practice, and where a human still has to sign off.

What we’ll cover:

• Where AI can speed up incident triage and investigation, and why detection alone doesn’t shorten the fix
• What separates useful AI assistance from automation that creates more work
• How AI supports routine operations and support work, from alert to fix and from ticket to resolution
• Where human oversight belongs in the workflow, and what to measure instead of a headline %: MTTR, downtime avoided, CSAT

Speakers: Roman Gorge, Head of Cloud Partnership Nikolai Lidetskii, DevOps Engineer
