AI Agents Summit 2026
From Chatbots to Autonomous Economies
2026 is the year of agents.
Large Language Models have evolved into autonomous systems – building workflows, managing assets, and executing decisions that generate real economic value. The AI Agents Summit 2026 (AIS26) is the flagship gathering for the global agentic ecosystem, happening at the heart of Berlin Blockchain Week.
Under the theme “From Chatbots to Autonomous Economies”, AIS26 explores how agents coordinate with each other and with humans, how they create and capture value and revenue, and how much autonomy we can safely give them across digital networks.
The All-About-Agent Platform
AIS26 brings the agent revolution to life through three interconnected formats:
🏆 Agent Arena: The platform for direct product adoption and user onboarding in a live competition where agents battle in real-world challenges. Transparent rules, public leaderboards, and verifiable outcomes showcase autonomous value creation in action.
💻 Agents Hackathon: Intensive builders' program for teams to design, implement, and ship production-grade agents. Focuses on agentic commerce, nanopayments, automated on-chain operations, and new multi-agent architectures
🏛️ Agentic Economy Forum: post-poned to later this year
