About this event
AI is moving from assistant workflows into action-taking systems, and commerce is one of the most immediate places where that shift becomes real. PATIO Connect: AI Agentic Commerce brings the conversation into the room in Madrid for people who want to understand what happens when AI doesn’t just recommend, summarize, or optimize, but starts making decisions, coordinating steps, and driving commercial outcomes with more autonomy. This is an in-person gathering for people who care about where agentic AI is headed and how that changes products, customer journeys, operations, and business models. If you want sharper thinking, better questions, and stronger connections around one of the most important transitions in AI right now, this is the right setting. About the Event PATIO Connect: AI Agentic Commerce is a community-centered event focused on the practical and strategic implications of AI in commerce environments. The theme sits at the intersection of AI, autonomy, agentic systems, and real business application—especially the shift from tools that assist humans to systems that can carry out multi-step tasks with increasing independence. Rather than treating agentic AI as an abstract trend, the event is designed to create grounded discussion around how these systems may affect the way companies sell, support, personalize, operate, and scale. The in-person format matters here: this topic benefits from live conversation, shared examples, and the kind of nuanced back-and-forth that is hard to get from a feed or webinar. Expect a room with a strong community feel. The emphasis is not just on listening, but on connecting with others who are actively thinking about applied AI, decision-making systems, automation boundaries, and the future of commercial interactions. Whether your angle is product, strategy, growth, operations, or investment, the event gives you a space to compare perspectives with people asking similarly serious questions. Because the topic is evolving quickly, the value of the event is in collective intelligence as much as individual expertise. You are not showing up for vague AI hype; you are showing up to engage with a timely theme that has direct implications for how businesses build and compete. What to Expect The event is structured as an in-person connect experience, which means you can expect a mix of conversation, networking, and focused discussion around the theme of agentic commerce. The pace should feel social but substantive: enough room to meet people, enough depth to leave with clearer thinking. You can expect the afternoon to center on themes such as: What “agentic” actually means in a commerce context Where autonomy creates value across buying, selling, service, and operations How AI agents may reshape customer experiences and internal workflows What risks, limits, and governance questions come with more autonomous systems How teams are thinking about implementation beyond surface-level experimentation In practice, that may look like short thematic conversations, informal knowledge exchange, and networking with people who are building, exploring, or evaluating this space from different angles. Because it is in person, there is more room for spontaneous follow-up questions, deeper side conversations, and introductions that lead somewhere useful. Bring your current questions with you. The strongest outcomes at events like this often come from showing up ready to test assumptions, pressure-check ideas, and hear how others are approaching similar opportunities or constraints. Why Attend If you are trying to make sense of the next wave of AI adoption, this event offers a more useful lens than broad discussions about “AI disruption.” Agentic commerce gets specific: it asks what changes when systems can interpret goals, take action across tools or workflows, and influence commercial outcomes with less constant human prompting. That matters whether you are building products, leading teams, advising clients, investing in new models, or exploring where the market is moving. You will leave with a better sense of the operational, customer, and strategic implications of autonomy in commerce—not just the technology narrative around it. There is also clear value in the room itself. Events like this help you find the people who are thinking one layer deeper: the operators separating signal from noise, the builders translating capability into product reality, and the community members who understand that AI’s impact is shaped as much by design and trust as by model performance. You should attend if you want to: Sharpen your understanding of agentic AI in a business context Meet peers in Madrid interested in applied AI and commercial innovation Explore practical use cases rather than generic predictions Get a clearer view of opportunities and constraints around autonomy Build relationships with people working at the edge of AI, product, and commerce Practical Details Location: In person in Madrid, Spain. This is a physical gathering, so expect the benefits that come with being in the room: stronger conversations, easier networking, and a more natural exchange of ideas than a purely online format can offer. Date and time: Tuesday, May 19 at 4:30 PM GMT+2. The timing makes it well suited for an afternoon session that can transition naturally into extended conversation and networking. A few useful notes for attendees: Plan to arrive a little early so you have time to settle in and meet people before discussions begin. Come ready for conversation, not passive attendance; this format rewards curiosity and participation. If you work on AI, commerce, product, growth, operations, or adjacent strategy, think about one or two current challenges or questions to bring into the room. The topic is timely, the format is social, and the setting is designed for meaningful exchange. If agentic AI is becoming part of how commerce will operate, this is exactly the kind of room where you want to be early.
