The discussion will center around the AI tools available and how social networks and academia are adopting to the new technologies. The discussion will also revolve around the students aspirations around working with the technology and what they believe in the future of AI.

6:30-7:30 PM – Launch: The Open Development Platform and Research Net AI – Join the session to understand and watch the demo of the Open Development Platform for the first time as the Minimum Viable Product is revealed. The platform automates the development, testing and deployment of products built on the system. The complete lifecycle of the product can be managed and maintained on the platform. Integration with other systems may be achieved through pattern engineering or plugin development making the platform extremely extensible with minimal effort. Process engineering and automation is built into the system with an agentic framework for inter-operability between external agents and frameworks either by the generation of code for the external system or mapping the capabilities. The Agentic framework is based on the latest research from Googe ADK and Agent-to-Agent protocol and communication with tools with Model Context Protocol (MCP).

Learn about all the collaborations and partnerships started at Research Net.AI with universities and organizations around the world and how you can join the Research Network and Services Network to build products at blazing speeds to reduce the time-to-market and gain from the insights through Data Insights for the products.

The development team for the MVP will be present and glad to answer any questions.

7:30-8:00 PM - Networking: ADDA, the Meeting of the Minds

The AI Alliance, ODP and Research Net AI – Resources You Can Use

AI Alliance, originally started by IBM and Meta, it is a collaborative network of 100+ organizations, including companies, startups, universities, research institutions, government organizations, and non-profit foundations that are working at the forefront of AI technology, applications, and governance.  They unite top developers, scientists, academic institutions, companies, and policymakers to create the future of open, safe, and responsible AI. The AI Alliance is building and advancing opensource AI agents, data models, evaluations, safety, applications and advocacy to ensure everyone can benefit

ODP provides an open co-development platform for collaborating with universities, faculties and students under Open Source MIT license. This contains the agentic orchestration framework. Products built on ODP can then be hardened and commercialized with services and 24x7 support. Value-added services may also be added to the commercial product. This model is similar to the relationship between Apache or other Open Source products commercialized through RedHat.

Research Net .AI (RNet.AI) is an innovation platform for building commercial products at scale and speed. It provides the blazing fast pattern and agent-based automation framework provided by the Open Development Platform (ODP).
