Steadforce will once again be attending PyCon DE & PyData, Europe’s largest Python conference, this year, and will be playing multiple roles: we’ll have our own booth and our team will be giving a technical presentation.
Our talk: “Escape the Hype: Teaching LLM Concepts Using an Interactive AI Factory Game”
In their talk, our experts Vadim Vlasov, Eric Glaser, and Lisa Amrhein will demonstrate how to convey complex LLM concepts in a playful, interactive way that everyone can understand. The foundation for this is our proprietary AI Factory — an escape room-inspired educational game that lets participants experience real-world AI errors, guardrail failures, and RAG misunderstandings firsthand. The talk is aimed at anyone who wants to truly understand AI — not through buzzwords, but through hands-on experience.

The Data Innovation Summit will take place in Stockholm from May 6 to 8, 2026, and is one of Europe’s leading events for data and AI topics. The event will bring together more than 3,500 attendees, over 300 speakers, and an extensive program across multiple stages.
As it does every year, Steadforce will be attending the Data Innovation Summit. The event offers a concise overview of the latest developments in data management, analytics, machine learning, generative AI, data engineering, and data-driven business models. We use the summit to learn about new trends and technologies and to exchange ideas with leading data and AI experts.
The 130th German Medical Association Congress will take place in Hannover from May 12 to 15, 2026. It is the central annual meeting of the German medical profession and brings together around 1,400 participants each year, including representatives from the fields of medicine, science, administration, and politics.
For us, the Medical Assembly is one of the most important events for engaging in direct dialogue with decision-makers in the healthcare sector and gaining a firsthand understanding of current challenges.
Our booth (Booth No. 11)
We will be exhibiting at the event and look forward to welcoming interested visitors to our booth. The Medical Association Conference provides an ideal setting to discuss digitalization, process optimization, and modern applications in the healthcare sector. Our goal is to discuss together which digital solutions can create real added value today—efficiently, securely, and in a practical way. Direct feedback from the medical community and the medical associations is essential for us in developing technologies that truly simplify the daily work of physicians and administrative staff.
Current will take place in London on May 19 and 20, 2026. It is one of Europe’s leading events focused on data streaming, event-driven architectures, and modern platform solutions.
We will be there to keep abreast of the latest developments in the streaming industry and to gather practical use cases from the international community. Current also gives us the opportunity to meet our streaming partners in person and discuss new technologies, platform strategies, and joint projects directly.
We’ll be back at CloudLand in Heide Park in 2026 with our own booth, offering two technical presentations and a hands-on workshop focused on Kubernetes, GitOps, and CI/CD. Our sessions will take place on all three days of the event:

Streamfest is a joint project by Steadforce, Aiven, Conduktor, and Ververica. As a hands-on data streaming event, it is specifically designed for technical decision-makers and experienced professionals who are responsible for modern real-time data platforms from both a strategic and operational perspective.
Instead of traditional lectures, Streamfest features an interactive format held at Steadforce’s offices. In small groups, participants rotate through several partner stations to discuss specific architectural decisions, best practices, and lessons learned from real-world client projects. The focus is on honest exchange beyond marketing promises—from initial planning to governance, operations, and scaling in day-to-day practice.
The event offers the ideal platform to delve deeply into technological details, directly compare the approaches of the various partners, and network with other tech decision-makers and experts on an equal footing. The event concludes with a joint networking session in a relaxed atmosphere on the Steadforce rooftop terrace.
On June 29 and 30, 2026, we’ll be back at CNS in Munich with our own booth. Just like last year, you’ll find us on the 2nd floor, right by the stairs. Feel free to stop by and chat with us about the cloud, Kubernetes, and platform-related topics.
On September 23 and 24, 2026, we will be participating for the first time in the Mechatronics Forum at the GreenTech Hub in Benningen near Memmingen. You’ll find us at our own booth in the Innovation Area, where we look forward to discussing innovative technologies and digitalization topics with you.
