About Event

Agentic AI in Action

Agentic AI is moving beyond chatbots—from individual agents that use tools, to multi-agent teams that collaborate, and finally to agents operating inside real customer and enterprise workflows.

Join GDG on Campus UNSW and UNSW Founders for an evening of expert talks, practical insights and a guided hands-on building session exploring the next generation of Agentic AI.

Throughout the event, we will explore technologies and practices across the Google Cloud AI ecosystem, including Gemini, Google Agent Development Kit (ADK) and the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

Speakers & Sessions

Anu Phoghat

Google Developer Expert (GDE), Founder

The Plug-and-Play Agent: Orchestrating Micro-Agents with MCP and Google ADK

Explore how the Model Context Protocol enables AI agents to connect with tools, data sources and external applications, and how Google ADK can be used to build modular and extensible agent systems powered by Gemini.

Maverick Cui

GDG on Campus UNSW Organizer · AI Architect

Beyond the Single Agent: The Operating System for AI Teams

Discover how individual agents evolve into multi-agent systems and scalable Agent Teams through role specialisation, collaboration patterns, shared memory, organisation topology and agent-cluster governance.

Aaron Xie

Founder, OpenOnion

Agent FDE: How Can Agents Enter a Customer’s Business?

Learn how Forward Deployed Engineers identify valuable Agent use cases, redesign business processes and bring AI agents from technical prototypes into real customer and enterprise workflows.

Guided Building Session

After the speaker sessions, participants will join a guided hands-on building session using starter code, MCP, Google ADK and Gemini.

You will have the opportunity to:

  • Configure a local Agent environment

  • Connect an Agent with an MCP-based tool

  • Run and test an Agent using Gemini

  • Explore how Agents select and call external capabilities

  • Experiment with modifying tools and Agent behaviour

What to Bring

Please bring:

  • A laptop and charger

  • A code editor such as VS Code

  • Git and Python installed where possible

Creating a Gemini API Key through Google AI Studio before the event is optional but recommended, as it will help you get started more quickly during the building session.

Please keep your API key private and never upload it to a public repository.

No prior experience with MCP or Google ADK is required. Basic programming familiarity will be helpful for the hands-on session.
