Dutch AI Conference 2026: a powerful first edition to remember
It has been a month since the very first edition of Dutch AI Conference, and we are still reflecting on what can only be described as an incredible milestone. Launching a new conference is always exciting, but also a leap of faith. That is why this first edition means so much to us. From the very beginning, our goal was to create a space where AI moves beyond the hype, focusing on real-world applications, meaningful discussions, and deep technical insights.
Looking back, we could not be prouder.
A community that made it possible
What truly made this first edition special was you. The trust, enthusiasm, and curiosity from our attendees turned this into more than just a conference. It became a community.
We are incredibly grateful to everyone who joined us, shared knowledge, asked questions, and contributed to the open and thoughtful atmosphere throughout the event. Your presence made this first edition not only possible, but truly impactful.
Relive the moments
To help you revisit the experience, we recently published the official aftermovie and photo albums. You can view them here:
Whether you want to relive your favourite sessions or simply soak in the atmosphere once more, this is your moment to dive back in.
Did you spot yourself in the photos? Feel free to share them on your socials and tag us, we love seeing the event through your perspective. And if you captured your own moments during the conference, we would love to see those as well.
A special thank you to our sponsor
As a first edition, support from partners is more important than ever. We would like to extend a special thank you to:

Looking ahead: this is just the beginning
While we are still enjoying the afterglow of this first edition, we are already looking ahead. Starting in September, we will open the Call for Papers for the next edition.
We cannot wait to see your ideas, use cases, and innovations come in. Whether you are working on cutting-edge AI solutions or exploring practical implementations, this is your opportunity to share your story with a growing and engaged audience.
This first edition was just the beginning and we are excited for what is next.
