Its always great when its a home-game 🌟 AgentCon London April 2026 - mark those calendars 📆

Is it 2026 yet? No, we have time for one more AI event! 😆 🌟AI Dev Days 🔗 aka.ms/ai-dev-days 📆 10 - 11 December 🌐 Online - see you there!

My physical copy of the book just arrived! I’ve already been reading it online and have really been enjoying this book 📚 FYI Tim Burners-Lee is currently teaching at MIT and has an OSS project called Solid about decentralizing user data to prepare us for the agentic web!

We’re excited to announce that AgentCon is coming to London on 22nd April 2026! 👉 Submit your talk or workshop proposal here: sessionize.com/agentcon-london Deadline: 10 March 2026 @GlobAICommunity @hboelman @meetdux @RoelantDieben @marlene_zw @AmyKateNicho #Microsoft @lee_stott

🎤 Closing out an unforgettable #AILowlands with @AmyKateNicho and @hboelman Thank you to our speakers, sponsors, volunteers, and every attendee who brought energy, curiosity, and community spirit to the day 👏

There's one month left in 2025- still time to learn MCP with our 3-part free livestream series! Topics: 🛠️ Building MCP servers with @FastMCP 🤖 Connecting agents to servers ☁️ Deploying to the @Azure cloud 🔐Adding auth (API keys, OAuth2) Register: 🔗 aka.ms/PythonMCP/seri…

Rumor has it LangChain v1 will be available soon and we're doing a bunch to celebrate the release🥳 @langchain is the most popular Python AI Agent framework for developers❤️ I'll be streaming tomorrow on @MSFTReactor with @sinedied to share whats new in v1! Join us!!!

GPT-5 Model Family Now Powers #Azure AI Foundry Agent Service from Pavan Li techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/azure-ai-fo…

TL;DR: 1. Azure AI Foundry gives you the enterprise runtime. 2. Microsoft Agent Framework gives you open-source orchestration. 3. Together: secure, extensible, production-ready agentic apps. Get started today: devblogs.microsoft.com/foundry/introd…

@TheJamesWillett This is great to hear @TheJamesWillett - join us in the Azure AI Foundry Discord with others building using Foundry - would love your feedback aka.ms/foundry/discord

Really getting into #Azure 's AI Foundry. Excited to be working an a new course with it ☺️

The Responses API in Azure AI Foundry is now GA 🎉 Bala Venkataraman highlights how devs can now build multi-turn, tool-using agents in a single API call, with built-in memory, tools, and enterprise-scale support. Read more 👉 techcommunity.microsoft.com/blog/azure-ai-… #AzureAI #AIagents

@iasitjain @Azure Check out some of the samples in the repo here for A2A github.com/microsoft/agen…

@Azure Excited to see Microsoft joining the agent space. Curious how it handles agent-to-agent communication compared to AutoGen or CrewAI.

Announcing Microsoft Agent Framework in Azure AI Foundry. As agentic AI adoption accelerates, managing multi-agent systems is harder than ever. The framework helps devs build, observe, and govern responsibly—at scale. Learn more: msft.it/6015svqa3

@faniozilla @Azure Join us in the Azure AI Foundry Discord #agent-framework channel and let us know your experience, we want to hear your feedback aka.ms/foundry/discord

@Azure Multi-agent feels like running multiple crews on a rig: coordination is harder than the individual tasks. A framework for governance at scale sounds overdue — will try it

@m_josiah @Azure @msdev @m_josiah Think of Microsoft Agent Framework as Semantic Kernel v2.0 with a new name. We'll continue to support and update Semantic Kernel v1.x long term, but most new features will go into Microsoft Agent Framework.

@Azure @msdev This says its not a replacement for Semantic Kernel, but it feels like in the long term it is. Is it advised to port from Semantic Kernel to this?

@RobRider16 @Azure @RobRider16 Logic Apps Agent Loop is built on top of Semantic Kernel and Foundry and is a great way to build low-code visual agentic business processes. Microsoft Agent Framework leans more to the pro-code side of building multi-agents

@Azure How does this compare to Logic Apps and their new Agentic capabilities?

Helsinki, let’s build smarter! 🧠⚙️ Join us Oct 1 @ Siili Solutions for #AgentCon — a full day of agentic AI demos, dev talks & hands-on sessions. 🎤 Keynote: @AmyKateNicho on scaling agentic systems 🔗 buff.ly/2mU49H3 #GlobalAI #AIagents #AgentConHelsinki
