Mumbai: The Internet of AI Agents: Architecting the Open Agentic Web
Who will build the foundational infrastructure for the Open Agentic Web
Where trillions of AI agents can coordinate, transact, and operate without central bottlenecks?
As part of the Road to MumbaiHacks series, this satellite event marks the first edition of the Project NANDA Mumbai Chapter, hosted by Project NANDA in collaboration with TEAM (Technical and Entrepreneurship Association Mumbai), with riidl (Somaiya Vidyavihar University) as the ecosystem partner.
This first event of the Project NANDA Mumbai Chapter, brings together four essential perspectives:
Prof. Ramesh Raskar (MIT) — technical architecture and protocol design
Shri Ashishkumar Chauhan (MD & CEO, NSE) — markets, trust, and national-scale infrastructure
Mr. Shashank Singh (IAS) — governance and civic-scale deployment
Mr. Aniket Deb (Co-founder, Bizongo) — AI X Manufacturing
A session for engineers, researchers, and founders building the agentic future.

About NANDA
NANDA, with origins at MIT, is architecting the building blocks for the Internet of AI Agents in a three-phase roadmap.
How can trillions of AI agents collaborate across organizational silos, communicate seamlessly, navigate autonomously on the internet, socialize, learn, earn and transact on our behalf.
The efforts include research, code base, standards and a venture hub. Roadmap includes trust layers, knowledge pricing, packet switched intelligence, population AI and PrivateML.
Research and Development Roadmap
Phase 1: Foundations of Agentic Web Build the core infrastructure enabling agents to find each other, communicate seamlessly across different platforms and protocols, and integrate easily into existing systems through standardized onboarding tools and interoperability frameworks.
Phase 2: Agentic Commerce Establish economic mechanisms where agents can price and trade knowledge, leverage distributed edge computing resources, and participate in marketplace systems with proper payment protocols and incentive structures for services and capabilities.
Phase 3: Society of Agents Create collective intelligence networks where large populations of agents can learn collaboratively while maintaining privacy, coordinate across organizational data boundaries, and distribute AI processing across networks to achieve emergent group behaviors.
