AGNTCon + MCPCon China 2026: Dates, Speakers, and a Discount Code

AGNTCon + MCPCon China 2026: Dates, Speakers, and a Discount Code

Introduction

If you’re building AI agents, working with the Model Context Protocol (MCP), or trying to figure out what “agentic infrastructure” actually means in production, there’s a new event worth putting on your calendar. AGNTCon + MCPCon China 2026 runs September 6-7 in Shanghai, and it’s positioned as the flagship regional gathering for the open agentic AI ecosystem.

What Is AGNTCon + MCPCon China?

AGNTCon + MCPCon is organized by the Agentic AI Foundation (AAIF), part of the Linux Foundation. The China edition takes place September 6-7, 2026 at the Shanghai International Convention Center, timed to run right before KubeCon + CloudNativeCon + OpenInfra Summit + PyTorch Conference China (September 7-9). If you’re attending one, the other is a short walk away.

The event focuses on the full agentic stack: MCP and agent protocols, orchestration, infrastructure, evaluation, and production systems for AI agents. It’s aimed at developers, AI engineers, platform builders, researchers, open-source maintainers, and enterprise architects who are actually building this stuff, not just talking about it.

Why This Matters

  • MCP is moving fast. If you’re building MCP servers or clients, or evaluating how to expose enterprise systems to AI agents, this is where the protocol’s community is showing up in person.
  • Back-to-back with KubeCon China. Attending both events in the same trip to Shanghai gets you agentic AI on days 1-2 and cloud-native infrastructure on days 2-4, without a second flight.
  • Practitioner-heavy agenda. The sessions lean toward real deployments and enterprise access patterns rather than vendor pitches.

Agenda Highlights

Some of the sessions on the schedule:

  • Blade AI: An Autonomous Chaotic Engineering Agent Based on LangGraph - Changjun Xiao (Alibaba Cloud)
  • From MCP Gateway to Agent Identity: Enterprise Access for AI Agents - YaTing Mou (Xiaohongshu)
  • Do Enterprise Agents Need a New Infrastructure Stack? - a panel with speakers from Tencent, Huawei, Kong Inc., and AWS
  • Sub-Agent Orchestration in Real-Time Voice Games - Harshita Jan (Smallest AI)
  • Hands-On Workshop: Building Agentic Search Systems - Han Xiao (Elastic)

TODO: Confirm the final published agenda closer to the event, as sessions can shift.

Registration and Discount

Techbeatly has a discount code for this event:

Enter the code at the final step of checkout. The discount doesn’t apply to academic pricing. Your pass includes keynotes, technical sessions, the Solutions Showcase, networking events, conference meals, and an attendee gift.

Conclusion

Whether MCP and agentic AI are your main focus or just one piece of a broader cloud-native stack, AGNTCon + MCPCon China is worth a look, especially paired with KubeCon China happening right after it. If you register, I’d love to hear what sessions you’re most looking forward to.
