Join us for a special Tech Thursday in Ottawa as we dive into one of the most exciting frontiers in artificial intelligence: the rise of autonomous agents.

​Titled “Inside the Agent Boom: How AI Builders are Rewiring the Future,” this event features Hai Nghiem, co-founder of the global AI Tinkerers community, which has rapidly become a nexus for some of the world’s most innovative minds in AI development.

​Hai will unpack the current wave of AI agents—autonomous systems capable of reasoning, learning, and acting across complex tasks—and explain how builders and researchers are accelerating the shift toward a future where these agents become foundational across industries.

​Whether you’re a developer, founder, researcher, or simply AI-curious, this talk will offer rare insight into:

​The technical breakthroughs driving the agent boom

​How grassroots builders are shaping the next AI wave

​Real-world applications and implications of agent-based systems

​What’s coming next—and how you can get involved
