Agentic AI Summit

Welcome to the Agentic AI Summit 2026, hosted by Berkeley RDI and Responsible Decentralized Intelligence Foundation. Building on the momentum of our Agentic AI MOOC series—now a rapidly growing global community of 40,000+ learners—and the success of the 2025 Agentic AI Summit, which brought together 2,000+ in‑person attendees and 40,000+ virtual participants, we’re excited to invite you to join us on August 1–2, 2026 for a two‑day summit on the beautiful UC Berkeley campus. The 2026 summit will expand on the vision established in 2025 by convening visionary academic leaders, pioneering entrepreneurs, experts from leading AI organizations, venture capitalists, and policymakers to explore and collaboratively shape the future of agentic AI. Together, we will examine how agentic AI can move beyond task automation to empower individuals, strengthen institutions, and amplify human potential, while advancing a future that is robust, safe, and socially beneficial.
