Hand on lab: Build an AI Agent from scratch using C#

Join us for a hands-on session where we’ll design and build an AI agent using C# and .NET. We’ll walk through the core concepts behind agents—state, tools, memory, and decision loops—and show how to implement them in a practical, production-friendly way within the Microsoft ecosystem.
This meetup is focused on real code, not theory: you’ll see how to structure an agent, integrate AI services, manage prompts and workflows, and extend the agent with custom tools and logic. Whether you’re exploring AI for the first time in .NET or looking to level up your existing applications, you’ll leave with patterns and examples you can apply immediately.
Who should attend:

• C# / .NET developers
• Backend and cloud engineers
• Anyone interested in building AI-powered applications using familiar tools

What you’ll learn:

• What an AI agent is and how it differs from simple prompts
• Agent architecture in C#
• Integrating AI services and tools
• Practical patterns for extensibility and control

No prior AI experience required—just basic C# knowledge and curiosity.
