Agentic AI Summit 2026 - Centre for Responsible, Decentralised Intelligence at Berkeley

The Agentic AI Summit 2026 returns to UC Berkeley on 1–2 August 2026, poised to be the largest and most comprehensive gathering dedicated to agentic AI systems. Building on the remarkable success of the 2025 summit—which drew over 2,000 in-person attendees and over 40,000 virtual participants—this expanded two-day conference anticipates more than 5,000 in-person attendees alongside a significantly larger global livestream audience.Hosted by Berkeley's Centre for Responsible, Decentralised Intelligence (RDI) and the Responsible Decentralised Intelligence Foundation, the summit builds on the momentum of the Agentic AI MOOC series, which has grown into a global community of nearly 40,000 learners. As 2026 marks an even more explosive phase of growth for agentic AI—across research, infrastructure, and industry deployment—this summit provides a critical gathering point for the field's most important conversations.## What to ExpectThe 2026 Summit offers comprehensive coverage across the full agentic AI stack, from foundation models and agent frameworks to evaluation, infrastructure, and real-world deployment. The program will explore:- Cutting-edge research advancing the frontier of agentic systems- Wide-ranging applications across industries and use cases- Critical safety and security challenges for responsible AI deployment- Infrastructure and evaluation frameworks for production systems- Policy and governance considerations for AI-powered futures## Who Should AttendThis summit brings together a diverse cross-section of the AI community, including academic researchers, pioneering entrepreneurs, experts from leading AI organisations, venture capitalists, and policymakers. Whether you're building agentic systems, researching their capabilities and limitations, deploying them in production, or shaping policy around their use, you'll find your community here.The event is designed not merely to showcase advancements, but to build bridges across communities and catalyse meaningful partnerships. The goal is to navigate the path toward agentic AI that actively empowers individuals, enriches societies, and amplifies human potential—laying the groundwork for a robust, safe, and transformative AI-powered future.## Registration and ParticipationEarly-bird tickets are now available with limited capacity: £199 for students and £299 for standard admission.
