Agentic AI has the potential to transform how we approach complex social challenges, but its success depends on moving beyond the hype to practical, effective implementation. While interest in advanced AI is growing rapidly, successfully delivering these tools in the social impact space requires navigating significant technical and operational complexities. Uncertainty around defining success and the speed of prototyping can lead to stalled projects and missed opportunities for innovation.

On Wednesday 6 May, 12:00–13:00 BST, we will explore how organisations can proactively identify opportunities for agentic AI.

Drawing on Nesta and i.AI’s recent work and internal experimentation, this session will demonstrate how to determine if and how organisations should integrate agentic AI into their work. Our expert panel, chaired by Nesta’s applied research & innovation director Mallory Durran, will share insights and takeaways from latest projects across both organisations. They will discuss practical ways to define success, the importance of rapid prototyping and what "good" looks like for AI implementation within the UK government and third sector.

The discussion will focus on the tangible benefits of agentic AI when applied to the right problems, the importance of empowering leaders with the confidence to test these tools and how to take the next practical steps in an AI strategy.

This online webinar is for leaders working in the social impact space, including those in government and the third sector, as well as academics, researchers and technical staff interested in the application of advanced AI for social good.
