The most successful AI initiatives of 2026 aren't just about better LLMs - they are about how those models interact with your data. The **Model Context Protocol (MCP)** is changing the game, providing a universal standard to connect AI models to data sources seamlessly. Join us in the heart of New York City on **April 2nd** to explore cutting-edge MCP use cases, solve implementation challenges, and learn best practices for building production-ready data agents. We’re bringing together NYC’s top engineers and AI visionaries to move beyond the hype and into high-impact, agentic workflows. Why Attend? * **Master the MCP Spec:** Hear directly from the teams at **Block, CrewAI, Snowflake, and OpenBB** on how they are implementing the Model Context Protocol. * **Network with Builders:** Connect with 100+ AI practitioners and data leaders in the NYC ecosystem. * **Expert Insights:** Learn how to bridge the gap between static data and autonomous action. 🎤 The Speakers * **[Didier Rodrigues Lopes](https://www.linkedin.com/in/didier-lopes/)** – Founder & CEO, **OpenBB** * **[Alex Hancock](https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexjhancock/)** – Software Engineer, **Block** * **[Tom Haddock](https://www.linkedin.com/in/tom-haddock/)** – Head of Product/Growth, **CrewAI** * **[Anupam Datta](https://www.linkedin.com/in/anupamdatta/)** – AI Research Lead, **Snowflake** 📅 The Agenda > **5:30 PM - 6:00 PM -** Networking & Check-in (Hosted by ODSC AI) > **6:00 PM - 6:10 PM -** Opening Remarks (Snowflake/ODSC AI) > **6:10 PM - 6:30 PM -** Visual Interfaces for
