What we’re about
LFDT Meetup groups have an informal relationship with LF Decentralized Trust and make up a key part of the LFDT ecosystem. Participation in a LFDT Meetup group is open to anyone--employees of a LFDT member company, LFDT contributors and developers, and people just passionate about distributed trust technology.

As AI agents increasingly operate autonomously across networks, establishing robust identity and precise access controls is critical to fostering trust and responsible interaction.
This LFDT Belgium Meetup will explore the foundational challenges of recognizing and delegating AI agents securely, as well as enabling fine-grained data access and persistent agent memory through innovative wallet solutions.
Key questions include:
- How can agents be reliably identified and trusted across diverse environments?
- What delegation models ensure agents act appropriately on behalf of users?
- How can granular permissions enforce least-privilege data access?
- Where should agent-generated data be securely stored for interoperability and persistence?

19:10 - 19:40 Scaling the Agentic Web: New Challenges and Areas of Innovation
Andor Kesselman - Founder, DIF Labs
As multi-agent systems move from theory into deployment, one of the most urgent challenges is establishing agentic identity - how agents are recognized, authenticated, and trusted across diverse networks. This session will examine the complexities of delegation (how agents act on behalf of humans or other agents), the role of hardware attestations in anchoring trust, and emerging patterns of human–agent interaction. We will also discuss how agents differ fundamentally from broader AI systems and frameworks to think about them. Drawing on evolving work at the Decentralized Identity Foundation (DIF) and MIT’s Project NANDA, we will highlight emerging frameworks designed to scale the agentic web responsibly.Andor Kesselman is a seasoned CTO and recognized leader in Decentralized Identity, with a deep focus on multi-agent systems and governance. He has been researching agent architectures since 2018, including early work in DecPOMDP that anticipated today’s advances. His startup, AgentOverlay, focuses on bridging multi-agent theory with years of work in decentralized identity. He helps lead the Bay Area chapter of Project NANDA and chairs the Technical Steering Committee at the Decentralized Identity Foundation (DIF), where he is also launching the Trusted AI Agents Working Group. His work centers on the emerging challenges of multi-agent governance-from identity and trust to policy enforcement-critical issues that must be solved to responsibly scale the agentic web.
19:40 - 20:10 Agentic Wallets™: Enabling Fine-Grained and Persistent AI Data Access with Solid and MCP
Geoff Pirie - Director of Product, InruptMore information coming soon
20:10 - 20:40 Panel Discussion
Shane Deconinck - Web3 Lead, Howest Cyber3Lab
Andor Kesselman - Founder, DIF Labs
Geoff Pirie - Director of Product, InruptThis panel will bring together Andor and Geoff to dive deeper into the challenges and opportunities in building trusted AI agents. Topics include the evolution of agentic identity standards, the practicalities of delegation models, and the importance of granular, consent-driven permissioning through Agentic Wallets.
Shane will facilitate a dynamic discussion on how these technologies intersect and complement each other to create a secure, interoperable, and human-centric agentic web. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions and explore real-world implications for developers, architects, and organizations aiming to adopt trusted AI agent frameworks.
20:40 - 20:45 Closing Remarks

A learning group for zero knowledge and SNARK application development. During the year we will systematically explore different aspects of zero knowledge and SNARK programming in application development.
Coordination of the learning group is in the Discord channel of Linux Foundation Decentralized Trust: https://discord.com/channels/905194001349627914/1329201532628898036
In this session, we will cover the proof of reserve and proof of solvency algorithms.
