Three Agents Walk Into a Store: From Thought Experiment to NRF Stage

A few weeks ago, I shared a blog post (https://lnkd.in/gwmg3PbH) exploring what #retail could look like when multiple #AI agents work together rather than in silos. The response was overwhelming and quickly turned into action. The founders of the #startups Uriel Knorovich(Nimble), Wendy Chen(Omnistream), and Mario Megela(YDISTRI) decided to collaborate, alongside Krutika Kamdar from Microsoft, to make the concept real and bring it to life on stage at #NRF2026. In just two weeks, they turned a thought experiment into a working multi-agentic #retail scenario. My sincere appreciation to Krutika for the leadership and energy she brought to driving this effort.
