Presenting A2A + Agentic Profile at Google's Gemini Workshop

I had the good fortune to present my new A2A SDK and discuss the Agentic Economy at Friday's Gemini Workshop in Mountain View.

Thank you so much to Peter Danenberg, Jay Yao, and Justin Woo for hosting these workshops - these are some of my favorite gatherings in the bay area!

We are are the start of a sea change where AI agents will do more than just help us reason, they will transact business on our behalf. I'm calling this the Agentic Economy and the pieces are quickly falling into place to support this.

While Google's new A2A begins to open the door to the Agentic Economy, there is a critical gap that needs to be filled: how to establish trust between agents from different parties.

I have been using W3C DID documents and IETF JSON Web Tokens within Matchwise.AI to establish trust between AI agents of different people, and decided to add this layer on top of Google's new A2A libraries. There is no official Typescript A2A SDK, so I have released my own open source SDK.

My presentation at Google gave a quick demonstration of A2A in action using Matchwise.

I then switched gears into the mechanics of an Agentic Economy, and how decentralized services interact to accomplish business and social goals.

For a review of the presentation please check out the slides. The Agentic Profile enhanced A2A SDK is available now.
