NODES AI 2026, a fully day event dedicated to AI will be held online on April 15. AI and data practitioners will gather to explore the latest in context engineering, memory, knowledge graphs, GraphRAG, AI agents, and graph-powered AI in production.

Topics will be in three tracks:

• Knowledge Graphs & GraphRAG
  Explore how knowledge graphs and GraphRAG connect structured knowledge with generative AI for smarter, context-rich results.
• Graph Memory & Agents
  Discover how graph-based memory gives AI agents persistence, context, and the ability to plan and adapt.
• Graph + AI in Production
  Hear real-world stories of scaling graph + AI into production and driving impact across industries.
