AI + low-code - redefining application development

Tiago Azevedo, CIO at OutSystems, discusses the findings of the company’s recent global 2025 State of Application Development report, explaining how GenAI and low-code in combination will redefine application development and increase productivity while ensuring governance throughout the entire software development lifecycle. Tiago suggests that developer teams shouldn’t have to choose between high-quality, fully functional apps and speed-to-market, and by abandoning antiquated development practices in favour of AI-powered low-code technology, they can reap the performance and agility benefits of these transformative technologies.
