One agent is useful. Many agents, people and systems working together are something else entirely. Decoding Data Science invites investors, founders and AI builders to an evening roundtable on what comes after the single agent: collective intelligence, where networks of agents and humans solve problems no single system can. What to expect: \- A founder and investor roundtable on collective intelligence in practice \- Live demos from builders in the DDS community \- A look at upcoming DDS ecosystem initiatives \- Open networking over the evening Who should attend: investors, founders, operators and builders working with AI, and everyone in the DDS community curious about what comes after agents. Monday, October 26, 2026 6:00 PM - 9:00 PM Zentral, World Trade Centre, Dubai Free to attend. Seats are limited, RSVP early.
