Developer Summit

Be part of the conversation. Join us in Lisbon in November.

DevOps, security, compute. AI and ML are reshaping workflows, with developers exploring how to integrate these technologies effectively. Threats are increasing, prompting discussions around secure coding practices and vulnerability management. Data and computing requirements have borne a new gold rush as builders struggle to find resources for the next generation of products.

The role of the engineer

As AI’s capabilities continue to expand, what does this mean for the developers of the future? What can be done to create synergy between engineers and the tools they use? Is software development still a viable career?

The future of web

Is the future of the web open source, decentralised and based on blockchain technology? Discover from industry experts what these technologies mean for the web, and their potential to enact real change.

Building better interaction

How society interacts with technology is changing, with more touchpoints requiring user input. Are there guardrails to protect users, as barriers between physical and digital worlds collapse? Is it possible to create guardrails without stifling innovation? 

How secure is society?

Online safety is an arms race, and AI has only accelerated it. With everyone now vulnerable to cyber warfare, what tools and tactics can help fend off such attacks? Join industry leaders as they explore how to keep data and businesses safe.
