Decentralized & Agentic AI

On 5 February 2026, the EESC Employers' Group is hosting a high-level policy roundtable, organised by the Digital Currencies Governance Group (DCGG), on artificial intelligence. 

The event will bring together EU policymakers, regulators, industry leaders, and academia to discuss the opportunities and challenges posed by decentralized and agentic artificial intelligence systems, and their role in fostering innovation, competitiveness and responsible AI.

The roundtable will include a keynote presentation on “Decentralized AI: A Governance Framework for Innovation and Responsible AI”. Two expert panels will then explore and further discuss key and timely topics in the field of AI policy and regulation: the first panel will focus on AI regulation, innovation, and EU competitiveness, while the second panel will examine forthcoming AI Act challenges, including agentic AI, sustainability, and cyber resilience. The discussions aim to provide actionable insights and practical solutions for policymakers, industry, and researchers.

Join us from 9:00 to 13:00 in room VMA 23 (entrance from Rue Van Maerlant 2, 1000 Brussels) and register here: https://luma.com/kra4s5qk
