Agentic AI on AWS: From Concepts to Hands-On Lab - #Startups@AWS

[Event description] This event is a part of #SFTechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem. Learn more at www.tech-week.com. New to agentic AI or want to understand how it works on AWS? This workshop takes you from core concepts (what agents are, how they reason, how they use tools) through a hands-on lab where you build and deploy your first agent on Amazon Bedrock. No prior AI/ML experience required — just curiosity and a laptop. You'll learn: agent architectures (ReAct, plan-and-execute, multi-agent), tool use and function calling, memory and context management, and evaluation strategies. Then you'll build one yourself in our guided lab environment. Walk away with a working agent, the mental model for how agentic systems are designed, and access to AWS credits to keep building after the event. Format: 2-hour workshop (45 min concepts + 90 min hands-on lab). All materials provided. Who Should Attend - Startup CTOs & Technical Founders building AI-native products - Engineers & Architects evaluating agentic frameworks - Product Leaders exploring how agents can transform workflows Whether you're pre-seed or Series C, you'll walk away with a working agent and a clear path to production. What You'll Walk Away With ✅ A functioning AI agent deployed on AWS ✅ Hands-on experience with AgentCore, Strands Agents, and Amazon Bedrock ✅ Architectural patterns for production-grade agent systems ✅ Direct access to AWS Startup Solution Architects 💻 Bring: Your laptop — this is hands-on
