Are you ready to define the next era of human-AI partnership?
While AI agent platforms are surging, a critical question remains: How do humans and AI agents truly work together? What’s the optimal combination for success for any given application or situation and how do we find and design it?
Please join Barney Pell, Nichol Bradford, and our nominating committee including Peter Norvig, Kwiri Yang and Ajay Agrawal, for the inaugural Human+Agents Co-Evolution Symposium, a one-day event convening top AI builders, researchers, investors, and transformation leaders to spark the foundational conversation about how humans and intelligent agents should collaborate, co-evolve, and augment each other.
What This Day Is
A highly focused symposium preceding Human+Tech Week, convened by Barney Pell, AI pioneer, entrepreneur, and investor, and Nichol Bradford, human potential technology pioneer and founder of Human+Tech Week. This isn't just another AI conference. It’s a forum to address what’s currently missing: a deep dive into how humans and AI can optimally collaborate in real-world systems to achieve our greatest ambitions. The insights and outcomes from this event will directly inform mainstage panels and keynotes at Human+Tech Week, amplifying the impact and driving the movement forward.
Human Tech Week is the premier event connecting visionary human tech founders with strategic investors and partners. Meet the brightest minds, discover cutting-edge innovations, and accelerate your impact through networking and connection.

What does an Event Host do?
As an Event Host, you play a crucial role in shaping the conversations and experiences that define the future of AI-driven potential.
Between June 16th-20th 2025 you:
Curate Powerful Experiences: Organize panned, workshops, demos, and gatherings that dive deep into pressing topics like wellness, longevity, mental health, and AI.
Engage Meaningfully with Attendees: Create sessions that foster collaboration, inspire insights, and drive impactful connections.
This is not a showcase or sales event. It’s a field-defining conversation.
We’re convening the people who will build what’s next, starting a global movement around successful Human+AI combinations at this crucial moment. While autonomous agents are taking off, many still focus solely on fully autonomous AI systems and are missing the richer space of possible Human+AI combinations that can lead to truly successful applications. Join us to define the possibilities, surface the missing pieces, and build the foundation for human-centered, flourishing AI systems at scale.
