Description
AGNTCon + MCPCon Japan is a regional edition of a conference series organized by the Agentic AI Foundation (AAIF), part of the Linux Foundation's event program. The series covers the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and the wider agentic AI landscape: core agent architectures and infrastructure, and the protocols and tools that let agent systems work together reliably in production. Sessions mix deep technical talks, real-world case studies and open ecosystem collaboration, aimed at teams building and running agent systems rather than a general AI audience.

The most recent edition, AGNTCon + MCPCon Japan 2026, ran September 10-11, 2026 at Belle Salle Shibuya Garden in Tokyo; the event page now reads "Thank you for Attending" and points visitors to session recordings, which the Agentic AI Foundation rolls out on its YouTube channel, and to slides from speakers who provided them. The 2026 program included a keynote lineup featuring David Soria Parra, a co-creator of MCP and Member of Technical Staff at Anthropic, and Lin Sun, Head of Open Source at Solo.io and a CNCF ambassador, among other speakers from companies and open-source projects across the agentic AI ecosystem. Alongside the conference, attendees could pursue the Model Context Protocol Associate (MCPA) Certification.
AAIF describes attendees as a technical, influential audience: open-source developers and contributors building MCP and other agentic AI projects, project maintainers and foundation leaders setting standards, enterprise engineers and architects adopting agent-based systems in production, platform and infrastructure teams supporting agent orchestration and observability, and researchers and academics studying agentic systems. AGNTCon + MCPCon Japan sits alongside sibling regional editions, including AGNTCon + MCPCon North America and Europe, as part of AAIF's broader event calendar; the foundation's site directs visitors to its full schedule for other upcoming events.
The event page also lists practical logistics for attendees, including venue and travel information for Tokyo, a code of conduct, and inclusion and accessibility details, alongside a program committee and a published session schedule. For the 2026 edition specifically, the site notes it has already concluded, so anyone researching AGNTCon + MCPCon Japan today is looking at a record of a finished event rather than an open registration.
