Definition

AGNTCon + MCPCon Europe is a two-day conference co-organised by the Agentic AI Foundation (AAIF) and the Linux Foundation, focused on the engineering and governance of agentic AI systems. The event combines AGNTCon (agentic AI architectures and orchestration) with MCPCon (Model Context Protocol implementation and ecosystem), creating a single venue for the communities building the infrastructure of AI agents. Sessions span technical presentations, keynotes, and an expo floor.

Who is AGNTCon + MCPCon Europe NOT designed for?

Executives seeking an AI strategy overview without technical depth. Developers unfamiliar with agentic AI who are looking for introductory content. Product managers or designers without interest in the engineering layer. Attendees primarily interested in LLM applications rather than agent infrastructure.

The venue: RAI Amsterdam

RAI Amsterdam is one of the Netherlands' principal convention centres, located at Europaplein 24, 1078 GZ Amsterdam. It hosts large-scale technology events throughout the year and is accessible from Amsterdam Centraal via metro line 52 (RAI station), approximately 15 minutes from Schiphol Airport by train.

The organiser: Agentic AI Foundation / Linux Foundation

The Agentic AI Foundation (AAIF) is a Linux Foundation project dedicated to the open development of agentic AI technologies. The Linux Foundation provides governance infrastructure, event operations, and community support. Together they organise AGNTCon + MCPCon as the institutional anchor event for the agentic AI developer community.

Editorial take

AGNTCon + MCPCon Europe is the formal institutionalisation of the agentic AI developer community in Europe; the AAIF and Linux Foundation pairing gives it governance credibility that community-run events typically lack at this stage of a technology cycle.
