What weāre about
š¤ š§ London Agentic AI ā The Original Meetup for Agent Builders by Agent Builders
Founded in AprilĀ 2025, London Agentic AI is the first and original Agentic AI meetup in the UK created by engineers, for engineersānot recruiters, marketers or consultancies.
What We Are About
London Agentic AI is a vibrant community for AI Engineers, Agent Builders, Agent engineers, AI/ML Researchers, Data Scientists, and AI Practitioners and anyone passionate about building intelligent, autonomous agents that drive real-world impact.
We are practitioners and buildersāAI/ML researchers, agent engineers, codersāwho actually build autonomous systems and share how they work. No slides from agencies. No sales pitches. Just live-demos, proālevel discussions, and peer reviews.
š”Our mission
To explore, learn, and build safe, reliable, and production-grade AI agents that power the next wave of innovation in business and beyond.
š What to Expect:
āļø Tech Deep Dives
Get hands-on with the latest and greatest in agent frameworks:
LangGraph, DSPy, CrewAI, AutoGen, OpenAI Agents SDK, Google ADK, and more.
š ļø Workshops That Build
Roll up your sleeves for live coding sessions, prototyping sprints, and real-world agent deployment labs.
šļø Talks & Panels
Hear directly from trailblazers in AI agent research and product. Stay ahead of whatās coming next.
š¤ Community & Collab
Meet other agentic minds, spark ideas, form build squads, and collaborate on side projects or startups.

Building Reliable AI Agents: From Context to Evals
The inaugural London Agentic AI Meetup brings together researchers, practitioners, and builders exploring the frontier of Agentic AI systems. Our first session dives deep into what it takes to make AI agents powerful and reliable from the way we engineer context, to how we evaluate and optimize outputs when tasks are fuzzy, subjective, or open-ended.
This evening will explore the latest thinking around:- Context Engineering ā shaping inputs for dependable agent performance.
- Evaluation & Optimization with DSPy ā closing the loop on prompts and tasks.
- LLM-as-a-Judge ā training models to evaluate generative quality.
- Data Infrastructure Foundations ā semantic layers, ontologies, and knowledge graphs as critical scaffolding for reliable AI applications.
Speakers
š¤ Mike Taylor (LinkedIn)
Talk: The EvaluatorāOptimizer Pattern in DSPy
Mike will demonstrate how to train an LLM-as-a-Judge and then use it to optimize fuzzy generative tasks ā where evaluations are informal, subjective, and difficult to measure. This approach unlocks new ways of making AI agents more dependable in creative and ambiguous domains.
š¤ Leonardo Ubbiali (LinkedIn)
Talk: Context Engineering for Reliable AI Agents
Leonardo will share insights on the importance of the semantic layer/ontology - structuring the data context - How you feed the data context into the agentic workflow (from prompt engineering to context engineering)Sponsor
This meetup is proudly sponsored by the authors of the book:

London Agentic AI Meetup #2! š
This session dives into how Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers unlock new ways to build and boost Agentic AI systems. From hands-on MCP experiences to strategies for improving agent performance, this evening is all about building the infrastructure for the next generation of AI-native applications.
Youāll learn:
- How to work hands-on with MCP servers
- Techniques to boost AI agent performance using MCP
- Practical lessons from early developers working on the bleeding edge of MCP
š¤ Talks
Talk 1: Developing on the Bleeding Edge of MCP Servers
Speaker: Macey Baker ā Community Engineer at Tessl
Abstract: TBC
Bio: As Tessl's Founding Community Engineer, Macey Baker is helping to shape the future of AI-native development (and helping you build it too). Now an AI code generation obsessive, she got her start as an early employee at unicorn Intercom in San Francisco before crossing the Atlantic and roaming the London startup scene, focusing on big data and ML houses. Some of her best friends are LLMs.
