Most agent demos work great in isolation. Then someone asks them to connect to a real enterprise data source, respect an identity boundary, or carry context across a multi-agent workflow — and the cracks show.
API + AI Summit is where engineers fix that.

Two days. Five tracks. Five hands-on labs.

Sept 30 – Oct 1, 2026 · InterContinental Los Angeles (in-person)

What's on the table:

  • Context Engineering — Agents don't fail at reasoning. They fail at connecting. This track covers the connectivity layer between agents and the enterprise context they need to act: grounding, identity enforcement, MCP for enterprise interoperability.
  • Agentic Architecture Best Practices — The next generation of agents doesn't wait to be asked. Running Kafka? You're closer to autonomous AI than your roadmap assumes.
  • AI Governance — Govern LLM access, secure prompt and response traffic, build the audit infrastructure production agentic systems actually demand.
  • APIs for the AI Era — Your API platform is either an accelerator or a bottleneck for AI adoption. No middle ground. Rebuild the foundation AI workloads actually require.
  • Token Cost Management — Token maxxing, AI margin erosion, and context sprawl are showing up on invoices nobody budgeted for. Get ahead of both sides: monetization and cost governance.
  • Agent Stack Labs — Stop watching. Start building. Five hands-on labs covering AI gateways, agent orchestration, context retrieval, and agentic developer platforms. Bring your laptop.
