NANDA Group AI Agents Strategy Workshop
Details
Hosted by MIT Sloan Technology Club in collaboration with MIT Project NANDA
Join us for an evening fireside chat and interactive workshop designed for business leaders navigating the agentic AI transition - no technical background required.
Fireside Chat:
Chris Ackerman (Sloan ’27) sits down with Alex Stanton, MIT's NANDA founder-turned-strategic-advisor who's scaled tech companies from startup to PE exit, current advisor to a publicly traded cybersecurity company, VC-backed robotics firms, board member of the Center for Intelligent Industrial Robots, executive think-tank facilitator, and agentic AI researcher - to explore what business leaders need to understand about the emerging agentic ecosystem.
Drawing on two decades building companies, leading AI transformation councils for non-technical executives, and tracking how frontier labs and capital markets are reshaping business models, we'll discuss:
• Beyond the hype: What agentic AI really means for business operations, commerce, and payments
• Value creation in the agent economy: Where investors and enterprises are already moving
• Openness as competitive strategy: Why keeping the Agentic Web open matters for long-term enterprise advantage
• Macro Viewpoints & Human Impact: Demographics, Transformation Councils, org redesign, and managing the human side of AI integration
Interactive Workshop: Shaping Enterprise Adoption with MIT Project NANDA
Alex, in his role as Director of Enterprise Engagement for MIT's Project NANDA (Foundation for an Open Agentic Web), welcomes NANDA leadership for the critical part: we need your help.
NANDA, a non-profit MIT Media Lab spinout, is developing foundational protocols for secure agent-to-agent communication and interoperability. As they pilot enterprise engagement models, the Sloan community is invited to help shape:
• GTM and enterprise adoption strategies
• Governance, incentive, and compliance frameworks
• Practical pathways connecting open-source research to business transformation
Join NANDA's Enterprise Engagement Committee and continue the conversation over dinner and networking at Flat Top Johnny's.
