⌖ Berlin · IBM Berlin

Hosted by Sebastian Grodzietzki (IBM)

Explore AI-powered software development with IBM Bob at a free hybrid coding watch party in Berlin and online on 15 October 2026. Hosted by Sebastian Grodzietzki (IBM), this four-hour practitioner event turns a conventional webinar into a shared, hands-on learning experience. Attendees will follow live sessions together, discuss what they are seeing, react in real time and learn alongside other creators. You can take part in person at IBM Berlin, Ella-Trebe-Straße 3, or attend remotely through the online link provided to registered attendees. What you’ll explore The event focuses on IBM Bob, IBM’s AI-powered development partner for ideating, building, modernising and shipping software faster. Sessions will examine how Bob can support work across the software development lifecycle, including: - Moving from an initial idea towards a working application - Exploring modern AI-driven development workflows - Modernising legacy applications - Supporting secure, full-stack, enterprise-ready development - Applying AI across software engineering, DevOps, R&D and operational workflows - Understanding best-practice uses of Bob throughout the SDLC This is designed as an active coding watch party rather than passive viewing. The wider series combines hands-on work, community discussion, deep dives and hackathon-style learning, giving participants the opportunity to compare approaches and connect with peers while exploring how AI is changing software engineering. Who should attend? The programme is relevant to developers, operations professionals and domain experts, with separate tracks planned for beginner, intermediate and expert participants. You do not need to be an experienced programmer: IBM Bob is intended to support domain users without coding experience as well as R&D and Ops teams. More experienced builders can use the event to investigate full-stack development, application modernisation and enterprise software delivery. Format and practical details… Register for this event

⌖ Berlin · NYX Hotel Berlin Köpenick

Hosted by Science and Information (SAI) Organization

The 11th Future Technologies Conference brings AI, quantum computing, robotics and cybersecurity research to Berlin, 15–16 October 2026. Now in its 11th edition, the Future Technologies Conference (FTC) provides a focused setting for examining the engineering and technology developments likely to shape the coming decade. Running annually since 2016, the conference brings together researchers, academics and industry innovators interested in both emerging research and its real-world significance. What the conference covers The programme is centred on fast-moving areas of future technology, including: - Artificial intelligence and its evolving applications - Quantum computing and next-generation computation - Robotics and intelligent machines - Cybersecurity in increasingly connected systems - Immersive systems and new forms of digital interaction Rather than concentrating on a single discipline, FTC connects several areas of computing and engineering. This makes it particularly relevant for attendees who want to understand how advances across AI, security, robotics and immersive technology may intersect over the next decade. Research and publication focus The event page places a clear emphasis on paper publication and research. Researchers can use the conference as an opportunity to engage with an international technology audience and explore a route for submitting their work. Prospective authors should consult the official FTC conference website for current requirements, deadlines and publication information; the listing also provides a paper-submission enquiry form. FTC is aimed at: - Academic researchers and university faculty - Postgraduate researchers working in engineering or computing - Industry innovators developing emerging technologies - Technology professionals tracking future-facing research - Prospective authors seeking a conference publication opportunity The broad subject range should suit specialists as well as cross-disciplinary attendees, although the research and publication emphasis makes it especially relevant to an academic and technically informed audience. Attendance details The conference takes place on 15–16 October 2026 at NYX Hotel Berlin Köpenick in Berlin. Consult the official SAI conference page for registration and the current programme.

⌖ Frankfurt · byte5 GmbH

Am 13. Oktober 2026 baut das Claude-Meetup Frankfurt bei byte5 live eine neue Fähigkeit für Claude – mit Talks, Engineering-Praxis und Networking. Stop Prompting, Start Engineering Unter dem Motto „Skill Forge“ geht dieses deutschsprachige Meetup über einzelne Prompts hinaus: Im Mittelpunkt steht die Frage, wie sich für Claude eine neue Fähigkeit systematisch entwickeln lässt. Teilnehmende erleben den Entstehungsprozess live und erhalten praxisnahe Einblicke in Prompt Engineering, KI-Workflows und die Entwicklung agentischer Systeme. Das Treffen richtet sich an Entwickler:innen, AI Builder, technisch interessierte Produktmenschen und alle, die Claude nicht nur nutzen, sondern besser verstehen und gezielt erweitern möchten. Ein konkretes Erfahrungsniveau wird nicht vorausgesetzt; besonders relevant ist das Programm jedoch für Menschen, die sich bereits mit künstlicher Intelligenz, AI-Anwendungen, Webentwicklung oder Automatisierung beschäftigen. Vorläufiger Ablauf - 17:30 Uhr: Ankommen und Check-in - 17:45 Uhr: Vortrag 1 – Thema wird noch bekannt gegeben - 19:00 Uhr: Pizzapause und Networking - 19:30 Uhr: Vortrag 2 – Thema wird noch bekannt gegeben - 21:00 Uhr: Networking und Ende Die Kombination aus Live-Building, Vorträgen und persönlichem Austausch macht das Format besonders praktisch. Neben den fachlichen Sessions bleibt ausreichend Zeit, Erfahrungen zu vergleichen, eigene Claude-Projekte zu diskutieren und Kontakte in der lokalen AI-Community zu knüpfen. Getränke, Snacks und Pizza sind vor Ort vorgesehen. Die konkreten Vortragsthemen und Speaker stehen derzeit noch nicht fest. Wer selbst etwas präsentieren möchte, kann über das Call-for-Speakers-Formular einen Vorschlag einreichen. Themen aus der Community Bei früheren Treffen ging es unter anderem um Prompting, KI-Workflows, das Open-Source Agentic OS der Community sowie Omadia. Einen Eindruck von bisherigen Inhalten vermitteln die veröffentlichten Vortragsfolien von byte5. View the event and registration details
