October meetup: building/deploying/maintaining agentic AI and autonomous agents

The October edition of the AI on the Amstel meetup will be focused on autonomous AI agents. We continue to get a lot of requests for a meetup around agentic AI, so we're doing another meetup on agents!

We’ve put together a great panel for this event. Each panelist brings a different perspective on AI agents. Here is the panel for the October meetup:

• Andreu Mora, SVP Engineering and Head of AI at Adyen – Adyen is one of the largest payment processors in the world, processing over €1.29 trillion in payments in 2024.
• Roman Arkhipov, Director of Coding and Agentic AI Project Lead at Toloka – Toloka is one of the largest providers of training data for agentic AI systems.
• Fedor Zhdanov, founder of a stealth agentic AI startup – Fedor brings a startup perspective, and has previously held senior AI roles at Nebius, Toloka, Amazon, and Microsoft.
• Moderator: Sean Kenny, leads Prosus's agentic workforce efforts – Prosus is the fourth-largest company in the EU by market capitalization, and they have already deployed 10,000 AI agents across their portfolio companies.

For those that are new to this meetup, the AI on the Amstel meetup is a monthly technical meetup that features knowledgeable speakers discussing "in the weeds" AI topics and challenges. This meetup caters to engineers, product managers, and founders in AI.

There will be food and drinks and time for networking before and after the panel discussion. Doors open at 17:00. Finally, since we get asked about this a lot, it's fine if you arrive late! We know work can be busy!
