.NET Liverpool’s annual community lightning-talk evening brings rapid-fire .NET sessions, open speaker slots and hybrid access to Liverpool on 27 October. Hosted by Dot NET Liverpool, this fast-moving meetup gives local developers and community members a platform to share useful ideas, technical discoveries and personal experiences from across the .NET ecosystem. It is also an opportunity to support first-time public speakers in a welcoming community setting. Talks and format Each speaker receives 15 minutes to present, followed by a five-minute window for audience questions and equipment preparation. The concise format means attendees can hear several different perspectives in one evening without sitting through long presentations. The announced programme opens with Simon Jackson presenting “The 3.7 Billion Token Diet”, a session focused on LLM token consumption. Several further slots remain available, so the final line-up will be shaped by members of the community who volunteer to speak. This makes the evening particularly relevant to: - .NET, C and software development practitioners - Developers interested in AI and large language models - Community members who enjoy discovering new technical ideas - New or aspiring speakers looking for a short, supportive first presentation The current running order begins with introductions at 18:30 and the first talk at 18:40. Sessions continue in 20-minute blocks, with a ten-minute break before the second half of the programme.

Hosted by Modev

The Global Agentic AI Summit brings together 1,500+ builders, enterprise leaders, and AI visionaries for three immersive days exploring the autonomous intelligence revolution. Set on a private winery estate in Loudoun County, Virginia — home to Data Center Alley, the world's largest concentration of cloud infrastructure — this isn't your typical tech conference. Three Critical Tracks The summit addresses three defining vectors of the autonomous AI economy through dedicated programming tracks: Agentic AI explores autonomous systems that plan, decide, and act independently. Sessions cover enterprise-scale agent deployment, single-agent workflows, multi-agent orchestration, reasoning and planning architectures, memory and context systems, and AI assistants that autonomously execute complex workflows. Physical AI examines embodied intelligence moving from datacenters into the real world. Expect deep dives into robotics, edge AI deployment, autonomous drones, AI-powered prosthetics, manufacturing automation, and the next generation of human-machine collaboration in logistics and defense applications. Sovereign AI addresses national AI infrastructure, data sovereignty, and the geopolitics of autonomous systems. Topics include how governments and enterprises build AI capability they control, critical infrastructure protection, defense AI applications, and national AI policy frameworks. World-Class Speaker Lineup 75+ speakers represent the builders actually deploying agentic systems at scale. The lineup spans enterprise AI leaders from Cox Communications, McKesson, and Navy Federal Credit Union; government innovators from the U.S. Department of the Navy and Library of Congress; media AI pioneers from USA TODAY; and founders driving the agentic revolution forward.
