Agentic Commerce: When Agents move from Intranet to Internet with Prof. Raskar (MIT)
The shift from "Intranet" to "Internet" agents marks the transition from closed, internal enterprise bots to autonomous entities that can discover, negotiate, and transact in the open market.
Join Prof. Ramesh Raskar (MIT Media Lab) and AI Experts for an exclusive exploration of the infrastructure required to make this leap.

About Nanda
NANDA is pioneering the foundational infrastructure for the Internet of AI Agents — enabling autonomous systems to interact, transact, and collaborate seamlessly.
We are solving the core challenge of the next decade: How can billions of AI agents discover each other, verify capabilities, and coordinate tasks without creating bottlenecks or security vulnerabilities.
NANDA employs a three-phased approach: (i) Technology: Building technology, standards, and reference implementations through a collective of top minds. (ii) Social Mission: Working to maintain an open Agentic Web for innovators while ensuring safety for vulnerable populations. (iii) Venture Ecosystem: Fostering a wide coalition of founders and investors.
NANDA's development draws on proven MIT research in AutoML, split learning, privacy-preserving architectures, and decentralized coordination. Early partners in the coalition gain preferential access to emerging standards, reference implementations, and the academic-industry consortium that will influence the emerging frameworks globally.
