How Milan is pioneering Europe's agentic city โ and how the model can be adopted and adapted by cities across Italy and the continent in the next 18 months.
Project NANDA is a global initiative exploring the foundations of the Internet of AI Agents: an open and decentralized ecosystem where autonomous AI agents can discover one another, communicate securely, collaborate across systems and coordinate complex tasks.
The Italy Chapter operates in alignment with this global vision, contributing from Italy through research, experimentation and ecosystem collaboration.
The Project NANDA Italy Chapter was established to connect the Italian research, innovation and institutional ecosystem to the global Project NANDA initiative.
The Chapter brings together academia, industry, startups, developers and public institutions to promote knowledge sharing, support collaborative experimentation and explore the implications of Agentic AI for organizations, cities and society.
Our role is to help Italian stakeholders engage with the evolution of the Internet of AI Agents while contributing to the broader Project NANDA community.
We promote research on Agentic AI, autonomous agents, decentralized AI architectures, identity, trust, interoperability and governance.
A distinctive research focus of the Italy Chapter is the development of agentic cities. Starting from Milan as a first pilot context, we aim to define a possible roadmap for cities where autonomous AI agents can support citizens, businesses, public services and urban infrastructure.
