Early Feedback
Henrik Lindqvist
CTO, Nordic AI Labs
Finally something focused on real problems, not hype
Refreshing to attend an event where conversations are about actual deployment challenges, not just theoretical possibilities. Met three potential implementation partners.
François Dubois
AI Strategy Director, Lyon Manufacturing
Practical insights you won't find elsewhere
Every session focused on implementation realities. Learned more about scaling AI in production here than in six months of reading whitepapers.
Lisa Weber
Managing Director, Munich Automation GmbH
Cut through the noise, found real partners
In 20 years of tech events, this is the first where I didn't feel like I was being sold dreams. The focus on execution over experimentation is exactly what the industry needs.
Emma van den Berg
CEO, Amsterdam AI Ventures
Serious buyers, serious sellers, real deals
Every meeting I had was with someone who could make decisions. No gatekeepers, no endless follow-ups. This is how B2B events should work.
Giulia Bianchi
CIO, Milan Smart Infrastructure
The networking alone was worth the trip
Connected with CTOs facing the same scaling challenges. The curated matchmaking saved me hours of random conversations.
Elsa Johansson
Founder, Stockholm DeepTech Fund
Found three portfolio companies in two days
As an investor, I see hundreds of AI pitches yearly. Here, companies came with traction, not just decks. The deal flow quality was exceptional.

Marta Kowalski
VP Engineering, Warsaw Fintech
The only AI event I'll prioritize next year
No fluff, no buzzword bingo. Real case studies from companies that have actually shipped AI products. The ROI discussions were particularly valuable.
Anna Brenner
Head of Innovation, Vienna Energy Group
Where AI meets actual business outcomes
The exhibitors were vetted for quality. No generic demos — everyone showed real results from real deployments. Made two deals on the spot.
Lars Nielsen
Chief Digital Officer, Copenhagen Logistics
Production-ready AI, not science projects
The quality of attendees matched the quality of content. Decision-makers who understand both the technology and the business case. Will definitely return.
Sophie Müller
Director of Digital Transformation, Zürich Insurance Tech
Implementation over ideation
Tired of AI events that feel like TED talks. Here, every speaker had deployed what they were talking about. The difference is night and day.
Katarina Horvat
VP Product, Zagreb SaaS Solutions
No theoretical AI, only working systems
Finally an event that filters out the vaporware. Every exhibitor demonstrated production systems with real metrics and customer references.
Thomas Fernández
Head of AI Operations, Barcelona Retail Group
Execution-focused, results-driven
Left with a clear roadmap and vendor shortlist. The workshops on deployment failures were surprisingly valuable — learned what to avoid.
