Alpine Agentic Search

About the event

Details and agenda

A technical evening exploring how retrieval, vector search, reranking, and generative models are evolving for the age of AI agents.
​Join senior engineers, researchers, and technical leaders from Nebius, NVIDIA, Tavily and the wider search community for a practical discussion about the systems behind modern agentic search — from low-level search primitives on modern GPUs, through advanced retrieval and ranking, to the latest developments in agents for search workloads.
​The evening will feature four technical talks, followed by networking, drinks, and bites.

​Who Should Join

​The event is primarily designed for senior-level technical professionals:

  • ​ML engineers and AI researchers
  • ​AI agent developers
  • ​Infrastructure, platform, and database engineers
  • ​Anyone interested in information retrieval and search performance in the agentic era
    Let's meet in person!
