 your usual pattern\n\nWelcome Back! Exploring Agentic AI: Foundations\, In
 frastructure & Security\nHi everyone!\nIt's been a long time since I organ
 ized an in-person meetup\, and we're back with fantastic talks from the co
 mmunity!\nBeyond the AI hype and vendor pitches\, we want to build a space
  for knowledge sharing\, open discussion\, and collaboration. Bring your q
 uestions—we'll bring ours (and we have plenty!). Agents are everywhere in 
 the headlines\, but what's actually under the hood\, and how do you build 
 and ship them safely?\nJoin us for an evening of talks exploring agentic A
 I\, from the foundations and infrastructure layers through to security\, g
 overnance\, and real-world engineering practices. Whether you're a softwar
 e developer\, platform engineer\, cloud-native practitioner\, architect\, 
 or simply curious about where AI engineering is heading\, you'll find some
 thing for you.\nExpect practical talks\, plenty of networking\, and a welc
 oming community of builders.\nDoors open at 5:00 PM.\nSee you there\,\nChr
 is\n\nThe Lineup\nAn Introduction to the new Agentic AI Foundation (Linux 
 Foundation)\nSpeakers: Darshit Pandya & Chris Mazur\nAbstract: The Agentic
  AI Foundation (AAIF) is a neutral\, open home — hosted by the Linux Found
 ation — for the projects defining how AI agents work\, including MCP\, goo
 se\, AGENTS.md\, and agentgateway. This talk gives a quick tour of why the
  foundation exists\, who's behind it\, and how transparent\, collaborative
  standards are shaping the future of agentic AI.\nFrom Dirt to Agents\nSpe
 aker: Juan Pablo (JP) Vasquez\nAbstract: AI isn't magic and it isn't just 
 autocomplete — it's five physical layers stacked from the ground up. In 25
  minutes we climb all five\, so you can read any AI headline and know exac
 tly which layer it's about.\nBio: JP Vasquez is the founder of AI Foundry\
 , a New Zealand sovereign AI inference provider running on owned hardware 
 in Auckland\, and the authorized ANZ partner for Positron AI. A 17x certif
 ied IT professional (including 2x NVIDIA)\, he brings six years of enterpr
 ise platform and advisory experience from Deloitte and KPMG.\nAI Intellige
 nce on Mobile\nSpeaker: Srini Munagala\nAbstract: TBC\nBio: JSrinivas Rao 
 Munagalas co-founder and CEO of UIRev Limited\, an Auckland-based software
  company specializing in enterprise mobile\, Salesforce\, and on-device AI
 solutions. For over 15 years\, UIRev has built field-first software for so
 me of New Zealand's largest organizations — including Fonterra and Fulton 
 Hogan — solving problems that happen in paddocks\, on construction sites\,
  and across distributed crews\, not in offices.\nAgent Governance Toolkit 
 (AGT)\nSpeaker: Ricky Gummadi\nAbstract: Everyone can build — governance i
 s the new bottleneck. How are you securing your agents and agent orchestra
 tions against the OWASP Agentic Top 10\, and how does AGT help? A fast 15-
 minute look at closing the governance gap.\nYour LLM Is Live. Who's Watchi
 ng the Front Door? — Guide to AI Security\nSpeaker: Andeed Ma\nAbstract: P
 rompt injection\, data leaks\, and adversarial attacks—your live LLM is ex
 posed. This session distills international standards from dry compliance i
 nto code‑review checklists and deployment gates that catch LLM threats bef
 ore they hit production.\nBio: Andeed Ma is CTO of BAIC and a Mirror Commi
 ttee Member for ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 42 on Artificial Intelligence with Standa
 rds New Zealand. With over two decades of leadership across AI\, fintech\,
