Startup Events in Richardson

Building an AI agent prototype is easy; making it reliable, observable, secure, and production-ready is where the real engineering starts. Join us for the Agentic AI Foundation (AAIF) Dallas Chapter Launch. This edition is all about practical engineering—no hype. We are bringing together local AI engineers, platform architects, cloud practitioners, SREs, and developers to break down how real teams ship production-grade AI systems. 💡 What We’ll Cover: ⚙️ Production AI Agent Architectures & Enterprise Deployment 🤖 Multi-Agent Systems & Workflow Orchestration 🛠 Agent-to-Agent Protocol, & MCP (Model Context Protocol) Integration Who Should Join?
