​🚀 Agents × Cloud: Building the Next AI Infra Stack

​A Salon on Scaling Compute, Memory, and Autonomy for the Agentic Era

​As part of SF Tech Week 2025, this curated salon brings together AI infra builders, cloud architects, founders, VCs, and enterprise innovators to explore how next-gen infrastructure is powering the rise of autonomous, agentic systems.

​As AI Agents evolve beyond chatbots into autonomous, memory-enabled, and goal-driven systems, their demands on infra and cloud are accelerating:
⚙️ Compute — continuous inference and multimodal workloads driving GPU/TPU orchestration
🧠 Memory — long-term context and multi-layer memory stacks
🔐 Trust — ensuring reliability and control in autonomous execution
🚦 Orchestration — enabling cross-cloud, multi-model, multi-agent collaboration

​👥 Who’s in the Room

• ​Infra Founders building GPU orchestration, memory, and agent runtime platforms

• ​Agent Startup Founders creating AI-native, agent-first applications

• ​VCs focused on AI infra, cloud, and enterprise SaaS

• ​Cloud Leaders from AWS, Google Cloud, Snowflake, NVIDIA, and more

• ​Enterprise Innovators deploying large-scale AI agents
