Attendees will have the opportunity to share their experiences, ask questions, and get practical insights from others working in the space.

Follow DARI Ventures on [ Linkedln](https://www.linkedin.com/company/107878711/) **Open discussion topics:** MCP is quickly becoming an important layer in how AI agents connect with tools, APIs, data, workflows, and external systems. But many important questions are still open: • How should MCP servers be built? • How should agents safely call tools? • How do we control permissions, context, and risk at runtime? • How do we move from demos to reliable production systems? • What security and governance layers are still missing?
