An industry-wide event of the leading AI Agent CEOs discussing and planning at industry-level. <\/strong>

The event format was unique<\/em>, moving from structured to unstructured: 1) A formal industry presentation at the start, followed by 2) facilitated group discussions on three topics, and finally 3) an unconference<\/em>, where attendees (called delegates) could crowdsource topics and attend the sessions of their choice.

Historic: The Inaugural AI Agent Congress<\/strong>
Last week, we hosted the inaugural AI Agent Congress in Silicon Valley\u2014a landmark event that brought together 31 AI agent founders and select investors. It was a first-of-its-kind gathering focused on building industry-wide collaboration in the emerging AI agent market.

The venue set the stage perfectly. We were in Palo Alto, home to many top startups, hosted at ServiceRocket<\/a> in their unique dome that opens to the sky. The rotunda was ideal for our circular seating plan, and the acoustics made it easy to hear one another. Special thanks to Rob Castaneda, CEO of ServiceRocket, for being an amazing host and even providing personal coffee service with Vittoria Coffee from Australia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Gathering
<\/strong>We invited AI agent founders from across the globe, with participants flying in from Europe, Canada, and the USA. Representatives from Microsoft and Google also joined us to discuss the future of AI agents. A third of the delegates were female AI leaders, and we continue to strive for greater gender representation\u2014a vital aspect for the industry and society.
