Keynote

- Why LLMs hallucinate without a Knowledge Graph and why more data, more context, and more MCP servers don't solve the problem

- Knowledge Graph vs. Ontology vs. RAG vs. everything else — a clear distinction

- How an ontology is structured — classes, relationships, constraints, reasoning

- How a Knowledge Graph works technically — DF/OWL, triple stores, SPARQL, federation; and why proprietary semantic layers become a lock-in risk

- How agents use a Knowledge Graph — integration, semantic retrieval, explainability

- How to get started step by step— without a large-scale enterprise project, with a realistic pilot scope

- A walkthrough of a real question — from the business question to an explainable agent answer, including an ontology excerpt and SPARQL
