Livestream Public Benefit Organizations Watershed Advocates Livestream (60 min) Max 500 participants

A live conversation on agentic proxies — software agents that represent stakeholder interests across processes the stakeholder can't watch in real time. Anchored on watershed defense (NRVT, the Norwalk River Valley Trail Project) and other public-benefit value flows. We'll cover the difference between signal and implication, why friction is a representation problem, and what 'preferred state made explicit' looks like in practice.

What You'll Walk Away With

  • A working definition of agentic proxy that's not vendor-specific
  • Three watershed-defense or shared-resource use cases mapped to proxy patterns
  • Vocabulary for distinguishing proxy signal from proxy implication
  • A starter list of preferred-state declarations to make explicit

Prerequisites

  • Stakeholder in a public-benefit value flow (water, public health, civic infrastructure, education)
  • Optional: a recent friction experience you'd like to map
