AI Agents in the Wild: Building, Scaling & Deploying in Production
Bellevue City Hall, 450 110th Ave Ne, Bellevue, WA, USJoin us for a high-signal evening with senior leaders from GitHub, Salesforce, and AWS who are at the forefront of shipping and scaling production-grade AI agents.
📅 Date: August 12th
📍 Location: Bellevue City Hall### 🗓️ Agenda
4:30 PM – 5:30 PM
Check-in & Networking
5:30 PM – 6:00 PM
Matt Nigh – Program Manager Director, AI (GitHub)

7:00 PM – 8:00 PM
Networking### Why Attend
- Most teams have built an agent demo. Very few have one running reliably in production. This event is for those closing that gap.
- Understand what evaluation frameworks actually look like in practice — not just theory, but the traces, metrics, and iteration loops that drive real agent improvement.
- Go beyond the initial build and learn why optimization, observability, and session tracing are the real differentiators once agents are live.
- Discover how leading teams at GitHub, Salesforce, and AWS are solving for scalability, reliability, and cost in production AI agent deployments.
- Learn how developer workflows are being reshaped by agentic systems — and what that means for teams building on or alongside platforms like GitHub.
- Get a clear view of where most agent projects stall — not at the model level, but at deployment, evaluation, and architectural decision points.
### Who Should Attend
- Professionals building, deploying, or scaling AI agents and agentic workflows
- Teams exploring production-ready AI systems across GitHub, Salesforce, and AWS ecosystems
- Individuals interested in observability, tracing, monitoring, and evaluation frameworks for AI applications
- Practitioners moving AI solutions from prototype to enterprise production environments
- Organizations looking to improve the reliability, scalability, and performance of AI-driven systems
- Builders and innovators exploring real-world use cases for autonomous and intelligent AI applications
