The BWIT AI Session on Agents & Agentic AI is set for July 23, 2026, from 12:00 PM to 1:30 PM on TechBirmingham's public calendar.

Agentic AI refers to systems that pursue goals with limited ongoing human input, a shift from chat-based models that has drawn developer interest in recent months. Local calendars show multiple AI-focused listings this summer, which aligns with national discussions on autonomous software agents in enterprise settings.

Venues hosting the conversations

The Birmingham Digital and DevOps Meetup meets July 16th at Brindley Place with free entry and refreshments provided. BASE runs the Birmingham Developer Show-and-Tell on the third Thursday each month at Innovation Depot, including a July 7th session and another expected July 16th. The Magic City Bitcoin Meetup is listed for July 20 at 6:30 PM. These recurring spots give attendees direct access to demos without travel outside the city.

TechBirmingham also lists a TechTuesday event on July 21. The Birmingham ChatGPT and LLM Meetup Group and a monthly AI meetup at Innovation Depot add further options on the same circuit.

Dates and access details

Eventbrite and Meetup listings confirm the July 23 session runs 90 minutes and pairs with the July 21 TechTuesday slot. Free or low-cost entry appears across the listed events, matching patterns at Innovation Depot and Brindley Place gatherings. Attendees can review the full schedule on the TechBirmingham calendar or the Birmingham Digital and DevOps Meetup page to select sessions that match their focus areas.

Check the listed calendars for registration links and room details before heading to any venue.
