Overview

Agentic AI is moving from concept to reality across the buy-side.

But there’s a gap between potential and execution. Firms that haven’t addressed data fragmentation, process inconsistency, and governance at the foundation level will struggle to realize meaningful value from AI agents.

Mindmeld London 2026 explores how leading firms are closing that gap, getting digitally organized first, then deploying agentic workflows that are transparent, traceable, and built to scale.
