โZero to Agent: London ๐คโจ
โcome ship an AI agent with us. in a day. in London. then pizza, wings, drinks & music til late.
โwe're the London stop of Vercel's Zero to Agent - a global build week where people all over the world go from "huh, what ifโฆ" to a real, deployed agent using v0 and Vercel.
โwe're packing the best bit into one glorious Saturday: ~100 cracked builders, one room, five hours on the clock, a bunch of agents being born in real time, and a proper afterparty at the end of it.

โ๐ when
โsaturday, 2nd may 2026 ยท 10:00 - late
โ๐ where
โ1-2 Paris Garden, London SE1 8ND
โ๐ what you'll build
โagents. any agents. solo build - one submission per person, no teams. we'll have three sponsor-backed tracks if you need a nudge:
โVercel workflow (WDK) - long-running, durable async agents
โv0 + MCPs - rapidly build agents wired to MCP servers
โChatSDK agents - agents that live in Slack, Discord, Teams, GitHub
โor freestyle and bring whatever weird, ambitious, or stupidly useful thing you've been itching to make. every builder gets the full sponsor stack: $30 v0 credits, $10k Mubit credits, $100 bright data credits, $50 Code Rabbit CLI credits. full track docs and quickstarts: https://vercel.notion.site/02agentresources
