Shift.Forward(): Bay Area Agentic AI

​Join us for the inaugural Shift.Forward() SF Bay Area—part of our growing community for people who want to move beyond talking about AI and start building what's next.

​This session explores the future of multi-agent AI systems: when multiple agents add real value, what breaks as they grow more autonomous, and what it takes to make agentic collaboration reliable in practice. Whether you build agents, research AI, design AI products, or are simply curious where this is headed, expect a moderated panel, concrete examples, and real conversation with people shaping this space.

​Our panel brings together Ankit Virmani (Head of Product, Uber), Wook Chung (Founder and CEO, SoulDay; previously led agentic platform at PayPal), Richa Sood (Group Product Manager, Meta; built the first version of Meta's Muse Agent), and Jaya Gupta (Partner, Foundation Capital), with Papi Menon (VP & Chief Product Officer, Outshift by Cisco) moderating. They'll cover agent architectures—from predefined workflows to swarm-style systems—the guardrails and observability needed to make them reliable, and the emerging Internet of Cognition (IoC). The 60-minute panel includes audience Q&A, followed by a networking reception.

​Seats are limited to keep the conversation engaging. Register today and be part of the community shaping the future of intelligent systems.
