Data Science Dojo – Seattle

As AI agents become more autonomous and capable, integration becomes a key challenge. In this session, we’ll introduce Agentic AI and how MCP (Model Context Protocol) — an open standard developed by Anthropic — is transforming the way agents connect with external tools. Think of MCP as the “USB-C for AI” that enables seamless, no-code integration between agents and thousands of applications.

We’ll walk through how Zapier’s support for MCP integration allows AI agents to trigger over 35,000 actions across 7,000+ apps — without needing any manual API integration. From sending emails to updating spreadsheets and triggering webhooks, agents can now perform complete workflows end-to-end through MCP-integrated automation.

You’ll see a live demo of how an AI agent connects to a Zapier-generated MCP server URL and executes automated tasks — no code required. We’ll also explore practical agent design strategies for real-world implementation, from orchestrating actions and assigning roles to handling retries and errors at scale.

### What We Will Cover:

• Understand what Agentic AI is and how MCP integration enables scalable, real-time integrations with external tools
• Learn how Zapier’s MCP feature works and how it empowers agents to perform thousands of actions across major platforms
• See a live demo of an AI agent triggering a multi-step workflow via a Zapier MCP integration endpoint — with no manual API calls
• Explore design strategies for agent orchestration: retries, error handling, and modular role assignments
• Discover how to build and deploy intelligent, automated workflows using MCP integration — and apply these patterns to your own projects
• Interactive Element: Through live demos and audience Q&A, participants will gain hands-on insights into agent-based automation powered by MCP integration, and leave with a scalable framework they can begin applying immediately.

Description:
Join us for an exclusive series of webinars and workshops designed to learn AI agent using ADK, MCP, and A2A, through a series tech talks, code labs, led by Google speakers.

This 5-sessions will cover foundational agent development, tool integrations, orchestration, deployment on GCP, and multi-agent collaboration. Each session includes theory, live coding, and Q&A.

🏁 Goals:
- Build confidence in designing AI agents using ADK.
- Understand architecture for agent tool integrations and orchestration.
- Get hands-on with deploying tools and agents to the cloud.
- Launch projects participants can demo or extend after the series.

Format:
- 20 min theory + 20 min live coding + 5 min Q&A
