eco – Association of the Internet Industry and GoDaddy invite you to an exclusive roundtable on 30 September 2026 in Brussels: “Agentic AI & Safety – What’s Next in Agent-to-Agent Communication?”
As AI systems increasingly act autonomously and interact directly with other agents, new questions around identity, trust and accountability are becoming critical. How can AI agents be reliably identified and verified? How can responsibility be attributed when agents communicate and transact autonomously? And what kind of trust infrastructure will be needed as digital interactions become increasingly automated?
To kickstart the discussion, we will discuss GoDaddy’s Agent Name Service (ANS), an open-source initiative being advanced under the auspices of the Linux Foundation. The roundtable will use this example to explore the technical, regulatory and policy implications of agent-to-agent communication and the broader requirements for trusted digital identities in an agentic AI ecosystem.
Around 20 invited representatives from EU institutions, industry and the wider digital ecosystem will exchange perspectives and discuss potential approaches to building trustworthy and accountable agentic AI infrastructures.
