​An evening with XDC in Manhattan - where agentic AI, payments, capital, builders, and founders converge.

​AI has crossed the line from experimentation to execution. The winning companies are no longer the ones with the flashiest demo — they're the ones building agentic systems that transact, reconcile, and act on behalf of real businesses. That shift is rewriting these markets at once:

​Agentic AI is moving from copilots that suggest to agents that do.

​Payments - the rails agents need to move value, settle instantly, and prove trust on-chain.

​Capital -how allocators are underwriting AI-native companies in a market where traction, moats, and margins look nothing like the last cycle.

​This evening brings the operators actually building it into one room with the people funding and deploying it.

​Who you’ll be with:

​Founders shipping agentic products into regulated, revenue-critical workflows

​Allocators & VCs actively writing checks into AI infrastructure, agents, and payments

​Enterprise & platform leaders from XDC and the broader ecosystem

​Featured conversation with Atul Khekade (Co-founder, XDC Network), plus additional speakers to be announced.

​What to Expect:

​Open conversation

​A candid look at what it actually takes to move an AI company from demo to durable revenue -commercialization, enterprise trust, agent-to-agent payments, and the fundraising narrative that lands in 2026.

​Cross-stack perspectives

​Founders, operators, and allocators trading real numbers

​QAIX introduction

​Meet QAIX.org and how it connects emerging AI companies with the strategic partners, distribution, and capital that turn early traction into scale.

​Curated networking

​Small-room density at the XDC Executive HQ — the founders, funds, and enterprise buyers you actually came to meet.

​Agents are becoming economic actors. That only works if the payment rails, the infrastructure, and the capital stack are built for it. This evening is for the builders and backers deciding what that stack looks like.

​Additional speakers and programming to be announced.
