India's Biggest Agentic Summer

Agentic Summer is India's biggest AI summer campaign running across Indian cities, hosted by Inner Circle and AI & Weekends — a series of events, AI Bootcamps, and buildathons designed to get founders and builders actually using AI, not just reading about it. Over two months, we're bringing AI to you through three event formats: AI Bootcamps, Agnt'Con, and Buildathons. It all culminates in a large Finale Showcase. If you've been meaning to get serious about AI this year, this is where it starts.

Agentic Summer runs from April through June 2026, ending with the Finale showcase.

It's for everyone who is curious about AI, if that's you attend AI Bootcamps, Agnt'Con, and Buildathons. Inner Circle membership isn't required but registration approval is.

Follow Inner Circle & AI Weekends on X — that's where all event announcements, RSVP links, and city drops happen first. You can also subscribe to The Signal, IC's weekly newsletter for AI Alpha.

Most people in India have heard of AI. Very few have used it for something that actually saves them time. AI Bootcamps helps you figure that city by city, one workflow at a time. In 2 hours, someone who has never touched an AI tool goes from curious to capable. They walk out with an agent running on their device that handles a task they used to do manually.

AgentCon is Inner Circle x AI Weekends flagship community event. Think firesides meets networking, all builder energy. It has curated conversations with people who are actually shipping AI products, panels on what's working and what isn't, and a room full of founders worth knowing. Agnt'Con run across cities as part of Agentic Summer and are the best place to get plugged into the IC network if you're new to the community.

A Buildathon is a focused, category-specific hackathon where builders have a few hours to ship something real. Unlike broad hackathons, each Buildathon is organised around a specific tool, partner, or theme — so the problem space is tight and the builds are actually usable. Teams demo at the end, and the best ones get selected for the Agentic Summer Finale showcase.

Yes. All AI Bootcamps, AgentCons, and Buildathons under Agentic Summer are free to attend. All you need is the Luma approval for the event you want to attend.

None at all. AI Bootcamps are specifically designed for people who have used an AI tool before but don't have them in their daily workflows. The whole point is to make AI accessible to everyone, not just developers.

We're running events across Delhi, Bangalore, Mumbai, Hyderabad and many more. Dates and venues will be announced on Inner Circle & AI Weekends on X. Follow us there to get notified first.

We're looking for IC community members who want to own an event in their city — find the venue, run the session end to end, and be the reason a bootcamp in their city happens. If that sounds like you, fill in the volunteer form.

Yes — DM Inner Circle on X with your city and we'll add it to the map. If you have a venue in mind, even better.

We're working with a small number of partners who want direct access to India's most active AI builder community. Partnership looks like: sponsoring an AI Bootcamp, providing credits or tools for a Buildathon, hosting a venue, or co-hosting an AgentCon in your city. If that sounds interesting, reach out to Akhil directly on X — Akhil — or DM Inner Circle and we'll take it from there.
