2 Day AI Implementation Workshop

Building the Backends of Enterprise AI

supertype enterprise ai workshops

1st and 2nd April, 2026

Building the Backends of Enterprise AI

Mapping out the backend of enterprise AI — existing patterns, deep dives, and practical blueprints that form the backbone of robust enterprise AI applications.

A deep dive into the backend components of Enterprise AI applications, with hands-on implementation examples of Logs & Tracking, AI pipelines, Vectors & Databases, and 3 other key pillars that power high-scale Agentic AI services; the likes of which deployed at leading enterprises across the region.

The workshop will be structured around a series of blueprints and established patterns, following an inside-out approach to building backend systems that make agentic AI applications work. The workshop will be a mix of lecture-style content delivery, and hands-on implementation sessions where we will build out mini examples of the various components covered.

Course book included

Register early to receive a copy of the 67-page e-book on Agentic Patterns, revised and updated in February 2026.
This e-book is a great companion to the workshop, and provides great reference materials to early parts of the workshop.

...we have a toolkit of composable patterns that can inform the design of an Enterprise AI Agentic system. Such a design is only a blueprint — a conceptual architecture that needs to be materialized if they are to offer any business value in the real world. With this book, my goal is to provide a practical guide on materializing a given blueprint by grouping tasks-to-be-done into six functionally distinct pillars, which bear the acronym LEAVES 🌿.

I took your AI Search Engine course a while ago and really enjoyed it.
The course was incredibly insightful and full of practical knowledge for engineering AI products in the real world. I also love the way you teach, very engaging, structured, and intentional.

Kevin reached out to us after the workshop, and we hit it off right away. We're thrilled that Kev is now a trusted advisor at Supertype.

Kevin is one of 1,892 students across

1,249 participants from Indonesia have attended our workshops.

Saya merasa senang karena memperoleh ilmu baru, khususnya terkait data analytics.
Overall, kelasnya menarik dan sangat interaktif. Panitia yang terlibat juga aktif dan solutif. Terima kasih Supertype atas kesempatannya 🥳🙌

I am still getting used to using chatgpt, but yesterday's course was fantastic. I used to think financial services were just statistics, but it turns out they can be used as storytelling with the help of LLM. I appreciate the exceptional training and the time you invested.

Building Search Engines in the era of AI

Apologies for reaching out this late in the evening, but I was really engrossed in the workshop session earlier. Great job on the presentation 👋! I gained a lot of valuable insights, both technical (like using LangChain) and non-technical (such as stock market insights). Thank youfor the informative session. Can't wait for future sessions 👋

Sectors Search supports first-class natural language queries, keyword search, part-of-name search and other advanced AI features, powered by a custom-built AI infrastructure engineered by Supertype.

Taught by Industry Experts

Companies are racing against time to build better information-retrieval systems that can help them make mission-critical decisions faster and more accurately. Being the technology partner for some of the largest institutions in the region, Supertype is at the forefront of these developments and is excited to be organizing a live, in-person online workshop on AI engineering.

Tired of outdated tutorials in the fast-moving landscape of AI? Us, too. This workshop is constantly updated in an ongoing Github Repository by the course author, and uses the latest version of all libraries (crucially LangChain and LangGraph). It teaches you all the skills required to build intelligent conversational AI Agents, using the same toolkit that we deploy for our clients at Supertype.
