You are coming to **build**. By attending, you will gain: 1️⃣ **Hands-on experience with AWS Strands Agents** — an open-source SDK designed to help developers build AI agents using a model-driven approach. 2️⃣ **Direct learning from AWS employees and builders** who can connect the workshop concepts to what is happening across AWS today. 3️⃣ **Practical agentic AI experience** you can discuss in interviews, portfolio conversations, customer meetings, or technical discussions. 4️⃣ **AWS builder credit opportunities** so your learning does not have to stop when the workshop ends. 5️⃣ **AWS swag for in-person attendees.** 6️⃣ **Connections with Houston builders,** professionals, founders, students, product leaders, solutions engineers, and AWS community members. ## **What Is AWS Strands Agents and Why Should You Care?** Traditional AI applications often require developers to manually define extensive orchestration logic: “If this happens, do this.” “If that fails, go here.” “If the user asks something different, follow another path.” Strands Agents takes a different approach. Instead of attempting to program every possible decision in advance, Strands uses a **model-driven architecture** where the foundation model can reason about the task, determine which tools to use, respond to results, and adapt its next action. ## **Attend In Person or Virtually** 📍 **In Person:** Improving Houston 10111 Rich
