AWS Brighton User Group Meetup #17 – Once Upon an Agentic AI

Welcome to the AWS Brighton User Group!

Are you passionate about Amazon Web Services (AWS) and eager to connect with like-minded professionals in Brighton? Look no further! The AWS Brighton User Group is a vibrant community where AWS enthusiasts come together to network, share knowledge, and stay up-to-date with the latest trends in cloud computing.

Whether you’re an experienced AWS practitioner or just starting your cloud journey, our group offers a welcoming environment for everyone. Our meetups provide a fantastic opportunity to connect with industry experts, learn from their experiences, and expand your AWS skill set.

Once Upon an Agentic AI is a free, hands-on workshop on building AI agents with Strands, the open-source Python framework from AWS. You will start with a basic agent, then add built-in and custom tools, connect it to external services through the Model Context Protocol, and set up agent-to-agent communication for multi-agent systems.

Bring a laptop and basic Python knowledge. No AWS account is needed as a sandbox is provided, but you will need an AWS Builder ID. Not coding? Come along to network and learn about AI agents on AWS.
