AGNTCY project donated to Linux Foundation with major industry backing

Today, AGNTCY is moving to the Linux Foundation with Cisco, Dell Technologies, Google Cloud, Oracle and Red Hat joining as formative members, alongside 75+ companies that have been contributing to and supporting AGNTCY.

Here’s why this matters: While single agents can handle specific tasks, the real power comes when specialized agents collaborate across multiple frameworks, vendors, and deployment environments to solve complex problems—just like humans do in the real world.

From IT deployments that coordinate ServiceNow tickets, Cisco networks, and Salesforce customer data to drug discovery pipelines that connect protein modeling agents with automated wet-lab robots; enterprises want to agentify work spanning multiple software systems.

But in order to build these collaborative systems, agents need to be able to find each other, verify their identities, and share context without expensive custom integration work.

Agentic AI is now at the same inflection point the early internet faced. Brilliant individual systems that can’t talk to each other, where every agent is its own island – until common protocols emerge.
