Topic:
Teach Your C# App to Talk to AI: Building an MCP Server in .NET by Ryan Ebke
You've used AI assistants that somehow know about your files, your database, your tickets. The magic has a name — the Model Context Protocol — and it's how an AI agent reaches your systems. In this session I'll show you how to build an MCP server in C#, live, from an empty project, and connect it to a real AI assistant on stage. We'll start from "the AI can't do that" and end with it calling C# code we wrote fifteen minutes earlier — against a database we control. You'll leave able to expose your own apps, data, and internal tools to Claude, Copilot, or your own agents, without leaving the .NET stack.
Speakers:Ryan Ebke
Ryan Ebke is an Omaha-based technology leader with deep roots in .NET and e-commerce engineering, and a Computer Science degree from the University of Nebraska–Lincoln. He's built his career at some of Nebraska's best-known tech companies — including Spreetail, one of the region's largest e-commerce businesses, and Speedway Motors, where he rose from web developer to Director of Product & Technology, leading the team behind a custom .NET commerce platform on AWS. Today he's Director of Engineering at Cordova Solutions, where he leads technical strategy across client engagements and the firm's internal AI enablement; his recent work has been in Node and TypeScript on AWS. A practitioner at heart, Ryan focuses on making AI genuinely useful in day-to-day engineering.
