⌖ Berlin · Park Inn by Radisson Berlin Alexanderplatz Hotel

Hosted by Global AI Berlin

KanDDDinsky ’26 brings Domain-Driven Design and AI-assisted software development to Berlin from 14–16 October 2026 for talks, hands-on sessions and Open Space. Now in its ninth edition, KanDDDinsky is a community-led conference for people who build business software and want to improve how they design, develop and evolve it. Around 300 attendees will gather at the Park Inn by Radisson Berlin Alexanderplatz Hotel in Berlin to learn from world-renowned experts, hear fresh community voices and exchange practical experience with peers. This is deliberately not a vendor conference. The emphasis is on collaborative learning, useful ideas and real-world software development rather than product pitches. The 2026 programme will place particular focus on AI-assisted software development in the context of Domain-Driven Design, exploring this fast-moving area through the conference’s established community format. Format and schedule KanDDDinsky ’26 combines several ways to participate: - Conference talks and hands-on sessions: 14–15 October - Open Space day: 16 October - Pre-conference workshops: 12–13 October The main event listing runs from 08:00 on Wednesday 14 October until 16:00 CEST on Friday 16 October. Talks offer access to expert and community perspectives, while hands-on sessions and workshops create opportunities to engage more directly with the material. The Open Space day gives participants a more collaborative setting in which the community can shape discussions around the subjects that matter most to them. Who should attend? The event is designed for software practitioners interested in Domain-Driven Design, artificial intelligence and the challenges of building effective business software. It will be particularly relevant to developers, architects and other technical professionals who want to examine AI-assisted development through the lens of software design and business context. The mix of expert-led content, practical sessions and participant-driven discussion should suit both established DDD practitioners and people looking to deepen their understanding through contact with the wider community.… Register for this event

Explore sustainable AI factories, sovereign European infrastructure and energy-efficient compute with Polarise at GTC Berlin, 20–22 October 2026. Polarise will exhibit at GTC Berlin 2026 in Berlin, presenting its approach to building the infrastructure behind responsible, high-performance AI services. Running from 20 to 22 October 2026, the event offers an opportunity to meet the Polarise team and discuss how sustainable digital infrastructure can support ambitious AI projects without losing sight of data sovereignty or environmental responsibility. What Polarise will showcase The company’s presence will centre on AI Factories backed by a first generation of sustainable digital infrastructure. Visitors can explore four connected areas: - AI Factories and the infrastructure required to deliver modern AI services - European AI sovereignty solutions - Green AI compute optimisation - More energy-efficient approaches to running AI workloads Together, these themes address a practical challenge for organisations adopting AI at scale: how to secure the computing capacity they need while retaining control over data and reducing the environmental impact of intensive workloads. Polarise positions its infrastructure as a foundation for responsible AI development, combining technical capability with European sovereignty and sustainability priorities. Who should visit the booth? Polarise’s exhibition will be particularly relevant to organisations evaluating AI infrastructure, teams delivering AI-powered services, and potential partners interested in sovereign or energy-conscious compute. It should also appeal to decision-makers exploring how infrastructure choices affect performance, data governance and environmental goals. The format is centred on the exhibition booth and pre-arranged conversations rather than a published talk or workshop programme. Attendees can schedule dedicated time with the Polarise team to explore partnership opportunities and discuss how its infrastructure could support the delivery of cutting-edge AI services. The booth number has not yet been announced. For a focused conversation during the event, book a meetup with the Polarise team at the booth.… Register for this event
