DESCRIPTION:https://www.w3.org/events/meetings/aaf35157-20e5-47f8-91a7-2db3
 8aeb3cfc/\n\nThe Agent Network Protocol (ANP) is an open-source communicat
 ion protocol for AI Agents\, aiming to become the “HTTP of the Agentic W
 eb era.” Its ultimate vision is to build an efficient\, secure\, and ope
 n network for agent collaboration. ANP seeks to break down data and agent 
 silos by adopting open\, interoperable standards that enable cross-platfor
 m identity authentication\, discovery\, and interaction between agents.\n\
 nBuilt upon W3C standards such as DID (Decentralized Identifiers)\, Verifi
 able Credentials\, and JSON-LD\, ANP defines how agents publish their iden
 tities\, describe their capabilities\, and establish secure communication 
 channels for data exchange and task collaboration.\n\nThis session will in
 troduce the core design principles of ANP and explain how it differs from 
 emerging protocols such as A2A (Google) and MCP (Anthropic).\n\nANP Open S

 rotocol\n\n**Goal(s):**\nIntroduction to the Design and Implementation of 
 the ANP Protocol\n\nAgenda\n\n* Introduce our perspective on the Agentic W
 eb and explain why protocols are essential to its development.\n* Present 
 the architecture\, design\, and implementation of the ANP.\n* Explain the 
 differences between ANP\, MCP\, and A2A.\n* Introduce the agent network we
  are building — a developing network of interconnected agents.\n\n**Mate
