Halifax - Agentics Foundation Meetup

​​This meetup marks the first Halifax gathering of the Agentics Foundation, a global, not-for-profit community dedicated to advancing agent-based artificial intelligence through open tools, education, and collaboration.

​Whether you’re new to the idea of autonomous agents or already experimenting with them, this session is designed to help you understand what agentic AI actually is, why it matters, and how people are using it today.

​What You’ll Learn

• ​What “agentic AI” really means
  How autonomous agents differ from chatbots, copilots, and traditional AI workflows.
• ​Real tools, real demos
  See practical examples using agentic frameworks and infrastructure, how agents coordinate tasks, persist memory, and execute actions in the real world.
• ​From theory to practice
  Where agentic systems are already being applied: automation, research, ops, trading, data pipelines, and more.
• ​How to get involved
  Ways to contribute to open-source projects, join global chapters, or help shape the Halifax agentic AI community from day one.

​Why This Meetup Matters

​Halifax has a growing tech ecosystem, but many builders are still encountering AI only through APIs and prompts.

​This meetup is about:

• ​Lowering the barrier to entry for agentic AI
• ​Creating a local peer community for experimentation and learning
• ​Connecting Halifax builders to a global, open, ethical AI movement
• ​Making autonomous systems understandable, accessible, and practical

​No gatekeeping. No hype-only talks. Just clear explanations, live examples, and honest discussion.

​Who Should Attend

• ​Software developers & engineers
• ​Students and researchers
• ​Founders and product builders
• ​Data, automation, and AI practitioners
• ​Anyone curious about where AI is heading next

​You do not need prior experience with agent frameworks to attend.

​About the Agentics Foundation

​The Agentics Foundation is a not-for-profit organization focused on:

• ​Advancing autonomous, agent-based AI systems
• ​Supporting open-source tools and education
• ​Building an inclusive global community around ethical, real-world agentic AI

​If you’ve been wondering “what’s beyond chatbots?”

​If you’ve been curious but unsure where to start…

​If you want to help shape how autonomous AI develops locally

​This is your entry point.

​We’d love to see you there.
