About us
TL;DR; This is the groups for enthusiasts of AI agents. We host talks, hackathons and networking events.
If you're interested in topics like frameworks for AI agents, multi-agent architectures, creating evals for agents, challenges in using AI agents in real business cases - you're in the right place!

I'm Ivan — I've been building AI-powered products professionally for 7 years, and I've led hackathons, workshops and meetups on AI for a while now. One thing I keep seeing: people learn faster and go further when they do it together. So I want to build a community of agent builders who genuinely amplify each other.
I have things to share from my own practice, but honestly I'm just as hungry to hear what others are building and struggling with.
I'm based mostly in Munich but spend a lot of time in Berlin and have a close connection to Amsterdam — so I've opened meetup groups in all three cities. First events in Munich and Berlin are already scheduled, Amsterdam is coming soon.
On the events — I'm a believer in learning by doing, so these won't be standard workshops. The interesting thing about AI agents is that they don't just work or not work — they work better or worse. That makes agent building naturally competitive, and I'm designing events around that: live building, evaluation, and a bit of friendly competition. I'm preparing challenges for different levels — and I mean that seriously: from people with no software or tech background at all, to seasoned agent builders. If you've never written a line of code in your life, there's a place for you here. I still need to figure out the right balance across levels, and I'd love the community's input on that.
On Discord — I've created a space for knowledge exchange, networking, and figuring all this out between meetups. https://discord.gg/FgBJzyxR
When you join, drop a message in #introductions — who you are, where you're based, and what you'd love to get out of this community.
One more thing — I genuinely think this is a rare moment. A year ago agents were mostly demos. Today they're in production (I've been lucky enough to be part of that). A year from now the patterns will be set and the early mover advantage will be gone. The people figuring it out now are defining what it becomes. I'd love for this community to be part of that.
Whatever your background, looking forward to meeting you there.
— Ivan
Upcoming events

Live Building Agents #3: Agent Foundations (Educational workshop)
commercetools GmbH, Adams-Lehmann-Straße 44, München, DEBeginner-friendly hands-on workshop for quick start in building agents.
Goals:
- Learn the main building blocks of an agent
- Practice building your own agents
- Demystify agent harnesses and learn how to use them
What to expect
We'll speak in detail about the agent loop, tool calls, message history, and LLM APIs. We'll also explore a minimalistic harness, Pi (both using it and understanding how it's built).
As usual, we'll wrap up with a small competition for the agents we've built. The agents will play escape games on Agent Fight Club .Who is this event for
This event will be most helpful for people who have never built agents, or who have built agents with high-level tools without looking under the hood.For non-technical people: the core of the content (explanations of agent building blocks, usage of Pi) is intended to be understood by a general audience. However, some sections will involve looking at code, so be ready for parts that are harder to follow than others (that shouldn't stop you from following the overall picture though).
Prerequisites:
- Laptop (Wi-Fi access will be provided)
- Readiness to spend approximately €10 on OpenRouter credits
