Hosted by Big Data Conference Europe

Big Data Conference Europe returns for its 10th edition, bringing together 700+ developers, data engineers, and AI professionals from 35+ countries for four intensive days of technical learning and hands-on experience. Taking place in Vilnius, Lithuania from November 24–27, 2026, this hybrid conference offers both onsite and online attendance options, making it accessible to a global audience. What to Expect The conference opens with a full day of hands-on workshops on November 24, followed by three days of technical talks across four specialized tracks. With 60+ sessions covering the latest developments in AI, data engineering, machine learning, and cloud technologies, this is a focused technical event designed for practitioners who build and deploy data systems at scale. The 2026 edition focuses on production-ready solutions rather than demos and proofs-of-concept. Expect deep technical content on: Data Engineering, Pipelines & DataOps - Advanced RAG architectures and implementation patterns - Agentic workflows and orchestration frameworks - LLM fine-tuning strategies versus prompt engineering - Evaluation and benchmarking methodologies for LLM systems - Observability and monitoring for GenAI pipelines Real-Time Data & Streaming Architectures - Production implementations with Kafka, Flink, and Spark Structured Streaming - Event-driven architecture patterns - Real-time feature engineering at scale - Streaming ML inference pipelines - Low-latency analytics architectures Who Should Attend This conference is designed for technical practitioners: data engineers, ML engineers, data scientists, software architects, and developers working with large-scale data systems. Whether you're building real-time streaming pipelines, deploying GenAI applications, or managing complex data infrastructure, you'll find practical insights from peers solving similar challenges. Conference Format The event features a cinema-style venue with comfortable seating, excellent acoustics, and large screens ensuring every technical detail is clearly visible. The hybrid format means remote attendees get the same access to talks and Q&A sessions as those attending in person. Beyond the formal sessions, the conference includes interactive elements, networking opportunities, and the chance to connect with industry experts from across Europe and beyond. The organizers emphasize practical, experience-driven content. Speakers are practitioners sharing real-world imple

Hosted by HackLab

Build and ship a working Physical AI prototype at HackLab’s intensive 48-hour Robotics x AI Hackathon, held at CIC Berlin on 14–15 November 2026. Designed for people who want to move beyond discussing the future of robotics and start creating it, HackLab 2 brings builders together for two focused days of development, hardware training and experimentation. Participants will form teams, develop innovative robotics and AI projects, and turn ambitious ideas into real prototypes before presenting their work live. Who should attend? The hackathon is aimed at builders, engineers, startup founders and researchers working in or exploring robotics and AI. It is particularly relevant to technically minded participants who want practical experience with Physical AI, opportunities to meet potential collaborators, and direct exposure to others building at the frontier of intelligent hardware. The organisers highlight several reasons to take part: - Collaborate with robotics and AI talent and industry leaders - Build and showcase a cutting-edge robotics solution - Compete for more than €10,000 in cash, hardware and other prizes - Explore potential job and internship opportunities - Receive free credits from participating technology providers for use during the hackathon - Meet founders, researchers and engineers shaping the future of robotics Partners, co-hosts, technology providers and the precise prize categories are still to be announced. Updates will be shared through HackLab’s LinkedIn page. Hackathon schedule The in-person programme takes place at CIC Berlin, Lohmühlenstraße 65, in Berlin.
