Agentic AI continues to move aggressively into daily work, boardrooms and enterprise transformation roadmaps.
Inevitable autonomous agents, multi-agent networks, and AI-driven workflows are heavily touted as the next leap in business execution. In which readness & preparation starts today.
Governance, control, unpredictable Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), and system trust and human-factor present some of the major challenges.
Drawing on key trends and lessons learned from AGNTCon Amsterdam 2026, this session explores why the future of Agentic AI will depend less on the models themselves and more on the systems built around them. Memory, orchestration, observability, testing, governance, security, and human oversight.
QUESTIONS TO EXPLORE
According to recent industry data, while over 80% of organizations are actively pursuing agentic initiatives, only 10% have successfully deployed autonomous agents in production.
Why governance & control gap is raising red flags?
How to prevent unstructured, tactical agent proliferation from becoming an unmanageable cost center?
