Join us for UCAN@Alibaba.com 2026 gathering on Agentic Commerce: how AI moves from generating outputs to taking action across real business workflows.

We'll explore this shift through both design & business: how AI becomes understandable, trusted, controllable, & useful, & how agentic AI enters real commerce workflows, from discovery & matching to sourcing, communication, fulfillment, service, & business decisions.

Alibaba.com will share its latest practices across design, AI, & ecommerce transformation, alongside guests from Google, Stripe, Microsoft, Figma, ComfyUI, & more, with additional speakers to be announced.

Expect practical perspectives, thoughtful conversation, & a curated room of builders, designers, product leaders, & operators exploring how AI becomes real business infrastructure.

Topics include:
- Designing for trust & action: how design turns AI capabilities into experiences people can understand, trust, control, & use.
- Agentic commerce workflows: how AI enters real commerce journeys across discovery, matching, sourcing, communication, fulfillment, service, & business decisions.
- AI as business infrastructure: what it takes for AI to move beyond tools & become part of how commerce operates.
