Europe’s technology community will return to Amsterdam this autumn as TechEx Europe 2026 takes place at RAI Amsterdam on 19–20 October 2026.
More than 8,000 technology professionals, senior business leaders and innovators are expected to attend the two-day event, which will focus on the technologies, strategies and infrastructure transforming modern enterprises.
Rather than concentrating on a single area of technology, TechEx Europe brings eight co-located conferences and exhibitions together in one venue. This gives visitors the opportunity to explore developments across multiple technology disciplines while connecting with professionals facing similar implementation and transformation challenges.
The event is aimed at senior technology decision-makers and practitioners, including CIOs, CTOs, CISOs, Chief Data Officers, enterprise architects, engineering leaders and digital transformation professionals. A strong emphasis will be placed on the practical side of introducing, integrating and scaling technology within large and complex organisations.
Eight Technology Areas on One Agenda
The TechEx Europe 2026 conference programme is divided across eight major areas of enterprise technology:
- AI & Big Data
- Cyber Security & Cloud
- Digital Transformation
- Intelligent Automation and Robotics
- IoT Tech
- Physical AI
- Data Centres
- Edge Computing
Across the event’s various conference stages, experts and enterprise leaders will discuss subjects ranging from AI adoption and enterprise data strategies to cyber resilience, cloud infrastructure and intelligent automation.
Digital transformation and emerging computing architectures will also play an important role in the programme, providing attendees with both strategic perspectives and practical examples of how new technologies are being deployed within organisations.
The agenda has been developed around many of the challenges currently confronting enterprise technology teams.
Michael Hughes, Head of Conference at TechEx Events, explains:
“Enterprise technology leaders are navigating a period of rapid change, where AI, data, cybersecurity, cloud infrastructure, and automation are reshaping how organisations operate. The TechEx Europe agenda is designed to provide practical insights, real-world implementation lessons, and opportunities for meaningful peer-to-peer discussion across these critical areas.”

More Than 200 Technology Providers
The conference stages form only one part of TechEx Europe. Visitors will also have access to a large exhibition bringing together more than 200 technology providers.
Companies on the exhibition floor will showcase products and services covering areas such as artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, cloud computing, robotics and automation, IoT, enterprise data management, infrastructure and business software.
Major sponsors already confirmed include IBM, EY, NTT Data, Glean and Outsystems, alongside many other organisations.
For attendees evaluating new technologies, the exhibition provides an opportunity to compare solutions, speak directly with technology providers and learn more about the platforms and tools already being implemented across different industries.
Networking, Workshops and Knowledge Sharing
TechEx Europe is also designed to facilitate conversations beyond the formal conference programme.
Technology professionals attending the event will have several ways to meet peers, exchange experiences and discuss shared enterprise challenges. These include:
- Industry-specific meetups in the Meetup Zone
- A dedicated Networking Drinks Reception
- Meetings arranged through the event’s networking platform
- Workshops and collaborative sessions in the Learning Hub
Together, these formats are intended to make it easier for attendees to establish useful connections and exchange practical knowledge with technology professionals from across Europe and further afield.
The combination of networking and educational sessions is particularly relevant for organisations dealing with challenges that cannot be solved within one technology discipline alone.
What Makes TechEx Europe 2026 Worth Attending?
One of the main advantages of TechEx Europe is the breadth of the event. A single pass provides access to all eight co-located technology events, allowing visitors to move between different disciplines throughout the two days.
Attendees can expect:
- Access to eight technology events under one roof
- Presentations and insights from senior enterprise technology leaders
- A combination of strategic and technical conference sessions
- Practical learning opportunities through the Learning Hub
- Networking with professionals from major organisations
- Direct exposure to emerging enterprise technologies and solutions
This multidisciplinary approach also brings together professionals with very different responsibilities. Strategy, architecture, security, implementation, operations and innovation are all represented, creating opportunities for discussions that go beyond traditional technology silos.
For enterprise leaders dealing with interconnected challenges involving AI, data, infrastructure, security and digital transformation, that broader perspective is an important part of the event.
