Welcome to the Agentic AI Summit 2025, hosted by Berkeley Center for Responsible Decentralized Intelligence! Building on the momentum of our popular LLM Agents MOOC series—a rapidly growing global community of over 23,000 registered learners—we are excited to invite you to join us on August 2nd at the beautiful Berkeley campus. The summit will bring together visionary leaders from academia, pioneering entrepreneurs, experts from leading AI organizations, venture capitalists, and policymakers to explore, discuss, and collaboratively shape the exciting future of AI and Agentic AI. This summit aims not merely to showcase the latest advancements, but to build bridges across constituencies and catalyze meaningful conversations and partnerships. Together, we'll navigate the path toward intelligent agents that don't just automate tasks, but actively empower individuals, enrich societies, and amplify human potential—setting the stage for a robust, safe, and transformative AI-powered future.
Join over 1,500 in-person attendees and many thousands of livestream participants as we come together for this landmark event to shape the future of AI and AI Agents.
