Definition

AgentCon Utrecht is a community conference focused exclusively on autonomous AI agents -- their design, deployment, and integration into production systems. The event is part of the AgentCon World Tour organised by the Global AI Community, a network of developer chapters spanning multiple continents. The Utrecht edition runs 10:00-17:00 CET on 25 June 2026 at De Horst in Driebergen, a conference centre outside Utrecht. Attendance is free and the programme is built through an open call for proposals via Sessionize.

The 2026 edition: agents in production

The 2026 Utrecht edition runs on 25 June at De Horst, a residential conference centre in Driebergen-Rijsenburg, approximately 20 km from Utrecht city centre. The CFP is open via Sessionize, meaning the programme is selected from community submissions rather than curated by a committee alone. The format combines talks, workshops, and demonstrations, running across a full working day. Speakers are not publicly confirmed as of verification date.

The event is technically oriented and assumes familiarity with software development and AI fundamentals. Beginners with no prior exposure to AI agents may find the content pitched above their current level, though workshops may offer more accessible entry points.

What is the CFP process?

Speakers submit proposals via Sessionize, the conference management platform. The organising team selects sessions based on technical depth, originality, and relevance to the agent theme. The CFP is open as of verification; check the official event page for submission deadlines.

Who is AgentCon Utrecht NOT designed for?

Attendees unlikely to find the content directly useful include:

  • Non-technical professionals with no coding or ML background
  • Enterprise buyers attending for vendor evaluation without a practitioner role
  • Practitioners focused on AI applications outside the agentic paradigm (e.g., classical ML, data analytics)
  • Those seeking a structured certification or training programme

Editorial take

A free, CFP-driven event on AI agents run by a volunteer chapter is one of the more reliable signals of where practitioners are actually building, rather than where vendors want them to look.
