AI Integration & Applied AI Events in Europe

"AI research" and "AI in production" are two pretty different worlds at this point. This page collects events from the production side: how teams integrate LLMs into real products, build agents that are worth trusting, wire up RAG pipelines that don't quietly hallucinate, and ship Copilot-style features without breaking the rest of the app. Agentic coding is a particularly active thread right now, with dedicated meetups and studios popping up across the continent.

Topics on these agendas skew concrete: prompt engineering as discipline (not as vibe), tool use and function calling, evaluation harnesses, cost and latency tradeoffs between frontier models, structured outputs, guardrails, multimodal inputs, AI-assisted development, and the operational muscle needed to keep an AI product running overnight. Expect talks from product engineering teams at Dutch and German scaleups, Parisian AI studios, London consultancies, and the widening pool of "AI engineer" meetups now running in most major European cities.

This is also where vendor ecosystems meet practitioners. Anthropic, OpenAI, and Mistral community events land here, as do LangChain, LlamaIndex, GitHub Copilot Dev Days, Microsoft Fabric AI sessions, AWS User Group AI workshops, and generic agent-framework meetups. A large share of the scene runs in local languages: French "IA" events, German "KI" meetups, Italian "IA" workshops, so don't filter by language unless you mean to. If your job involves shipping a feature that uses a model rather than training one, this is the category to subscribe to. Brainberg pulls these into a single European-wide feed so nothing disappears into a local community app.

Building a True Human-Digital Workforce

Leeds, 🇬🇧 United Kingdom

Navigating the New AI Operating Model: How Data, Context, and Culture Must Evolve Together.

As part of Leeds Digital Festival, join Nimble, alongside industry partners and guest speakers, for an interactive breakfast session exploring what it really takes to move from AI experimentation to meaningful business adoption.

We’ve moved past the initial hype of Generative AI. Now, businesses face the real challenge: how do you actually integrate AI into your organisation to create a cohesive, collaborative workforce?

This session looks beyond the hype to explore what a Human-Digital Workforce could look like in practice, and why success depends on far more than choosing the right AI tools.
Together, we'll discuss why organisations need to rethink not only their technology, but also the way they manage data, design workflows and prepare their people for a new way of working.

What we'll cover

  • Data Foundations: Evolving your infrastructure with semantic layers and ontologies to make your data truly agent-ready.
  • Engineered Context: The missing layer in most AI strategies—giving your digital agents the specific business context required to execute tasks safely and accurately.
  • Cultural Adaptation: Redesigning workflows and preparing your human teams to seamlessly interface with, manage, and trust their new digital colleagues.

Whether you are a technology leader, a strategist, or a transformation professional, this talk will provide you with a practical, systems-level blueprint to stop simply "prompting" and start building a functioning Human-Digital workforce.

AI and the Future of Work (w/ The AI Collective & netlight)

Stockholm, 🇸🇪 Sweden

Build vs Buy in AI-enabled Manufacturing About

AI assisted development is rapidly changing what manufacturers can realistically build in house. As the technology matures, the traditional “build vs. buy” decision is becoming more nuanced: which capabilities should be developed internally, which are better sourced from established vendors, and where does a hybrid approach make the most sense?

Join us for an evening exploring a practical, layered framework for making these decisions across productivity tools, enterprise applications, and industrial foundations and orchestration.

We’ll look at where ownership can create a meaningful competitive advantage, where vendor expertise remains difficult to replicate, and how manufacturers can balance speed, reliability, risk, differentiation, and long-term flexibility.

What to Expect
  • A practical framework for evaluating build, buy, and hybrid decisions in AI-enabled manufacturing
  • Real-world examples from manufacturing organizations navigating these choices today
  • Perspectives on how AI is changing the economics and feasibility of building in-house
  • A discussion on where vendor expertise and industrial domain knowledge remain critical
  • Panel Q&A with experienced practitioners
  • Strategic and hands-on perspectives relevant to both business and technology leaders
  • Food, drinks, and informal networking with peers from the Swedish manufacturing ecosystem
  • Actionable takeaways you can bring back to your team and leadership the next day
Programme

17:00–17:30 — Doors Open, Food & Mingle
Arrive, grab some food and drinks, and connect with fellow attendees.

17:30–17:40 — Welcome

Online Monitoring of Mechanical Loads

Vehicle components are constantly affected by forces caused by acceleration, braking, road conditions, and driving behavior. These forces create material stresses, and repeated stress over time leads to fatigue—one of the main causes of component failure. Understanding how loads translate into stress and ultimately into damage is therefore essential.

In this talk, we present how a machine learning model can estimate mechanical loads even in vehicles without dedicated sensors for this purpose. By reconstructing hidden stresses from available vehicle data, the solution enables real-time fatigue assessment, improves component durability predictions, and supports safer, more reliable vehicle designs—without requiring additional hardware.

Speaker: Alexander Nenninger at NTT DATA

Virtual: Shift-Left Performance Engineering for Agentic AI with CI/CD

Speaker: Kandasamy Selvaraj | LinkedIn

Topic: Shift-Left Performance Engineering for Agentic AI with CI/CD Performance Signatures

Agenda:
🕛 9:00–9:05 — Welcome
🕛 9:05–9:55Kandasamy Selvaraj | LinkedIn - Shift-Left Performance Engineering for Agentic AI with CI/CD Performance Signatures
🕛 9:55–10:00 — Closing
Summary:
Summary :
Years ago, I built automated performance gates into CI/CD pipelines that cut production defects by 80% and sped up deployments by 40%. The idea was simple. Catch a problem in the pipeline, where it's cheap to fix, instead of waiting for production to find it for you. That discipline is now standard in traditional software. It barely exists yet in agentic AI.

Response time, error rate, and throughput have been the standard SLO dimensions for as long as most of us have been doing this. They're necessary for an agentic pipeline, but they're not sufficient. An agent can meet every one of those three and still be a problem: it took six tool calls and three LLM calls to get a simple answer, a supervising agent delegated a task to a subagent that never properly completed it, one agent in a chain timed out while the overall request still returned something, or it pushed average token usage per trace well past what the system was designed to handle. None of that shows up in a response time chart. All of it shows up in the trace.

This talk is about treating trace data as the source for a new generation of SLOs built specifically for agentic pipelines part of shift left performance gate. I'll walk through what these new dimensions look like in practice: tool call count and LLM call count per trace, chain depth, tool failure and retry rate, delegation errors between agents, agent-level timeouts, and average tokens per trace. I'll cover a concrete starting point I use, flagging any trace that exceeds five tool calls or two LLM calls as a real gate condition, using trace data from a Langfuse integration wired directly into the performance gate rather than a dashboard someone checks after the fact.

I'll also cover why average tokens per trace deserves a place at the promotion gate, not just at monitoring runtime. If a change to a prompt, a tool, or a chain pushes average tokens per trace past an agreed SLO, that pipeline doesn't get promoted to the next environment until it's back in range, the same way a latency regression would block a deploy in a traditional pipeline. The same thinking applies to delegation errors and timeouts. If a subagent quietly fails to finish what it was asked to do, catching that before promotion is a quick fix. Finding it in production is an incident. The same goes for a timeout that never shows up in your metrics because the system quietly returned a default answer instead of surfacing the failure, the request looks successful on paper, but something underneath actually broke.

What I have is a proven performance engineering discipline from one domain, and a genuine, worked-through case for what the new SLO dimensions need to be for agentic systems, and how to enforce them with the trace data teams are often already collecting.

Takeaways :
What attendees will learn:
1. Why response time, error rate, and throughput aren't enough to know if an agentic pipeline is healthy
2. The new SLO dimensions agentic systems need: tool call count, chain depth, tool failure rate, delegation errors, agent timeouts, and tokens per trace
3. How to turn trace data, using a Langfuse integration, into real pipeline gates instead of a dashboard someone checks after a complaint
4. A concrete starting threshold you can adapt, such as flagging traces over five tool calls or two LLM calls
5. Why delegation errors and timeouts need their own gate, separate from a top-level error rate that can mask them
6. Why average tokens per trace belongs at the promotion gate, and how that differs from watching spend at runtime
7. Real Demo of Agentic AI Shift left implementation

AI transformations: Do's & Don'ts

Kerestinec, 🇭🇷 Croatia

Želiš uvesti AI u svoje procese, ali se bojiš da će to izazvati otpor zaposlenika, izazove u radu i da promjena neće zaživjeti?

Ovo je prilika da kroz stvarne primjere uspješnih i neuspješnih AI transformacija sagledaš proces implementacije iz perspektive upravljačkih odluka koje određuju hoće li AI doista zaživjeti u timu.

Na trećoj iskustvenoj radionici AI Collective Zagreb analizirat ćeš stvarne slučajeve, izraditi vlastiti popis što raditi, a što izbjegavati te dobiti jasne kriterije za procjenu koje možeš odmah primijeniti u vlastitom radnom okruženju.

Kako bismo ti osigurali dodatnu inspiraciju za rad, prije radionice ćemo zaviriti iza kulisa našeg domaćina - Bugatti Rimca. Čeka te vođeni obilazak kampusa koji pomiče granice tehnologije i inovacije. Motivacije, sigurni smo, neće nedostajati 🤩

Dosta ti je teorije o AI-u? Pridruži nam se na trećem eventu najvećeg globalnog AI communityja - AI Collective u Zagrebu.

Kako to izgleda:

Prije početka radionice nas tim iz Bugatti Rimca provodi svojim kampusom kako bismo iz prve ruke doživjeli okruženje u kojem vrhunski stručnjaci razvijaju inovativnu tehnologiju. Nakon obilaska, krećemo s radom.

Sjedaš za stol s drugim voditeljima, a u timu vas čekaju dva stvarna, anonimizirana poslovna slučaja: jedan uspješan i jedan neuspješan.

Faza 1 - Rad u timovima (30 min): Analizirate dobivene slučajeve kroz prizmu kriterija za provođenje uspješne AI transformacije: identificirate obrasce, zaključujete što je presudilo ishodu i zapisujete uvide.

Faza 2 - Razmjena mišljenja (25 min): Tvoj tim u 3 minute brani svoje zaključke pred ostalima. Timovi se nadopunjuju i propituju, te zajedno slažemo "Do's & Don'ts" listu cijele dvorane.

Faza 3 - Otkrivanje slučajeva (20 min): Otkrivamo ti koje tvrtke stoje iza slučajeva i točne brojke iza ishoda. Zaključke do kojih je došao tvoj tim sada potvrđuju ili osporavaju vodeći svjetski primjeri, a konačne uvide pretvaramo u checklistu koju nosiš kući.

Faza 4 - Q&A i networking (30 min): Raspravljamo o tome kako primijeniti zaključke na tim od 5 do 15 ljudi u tvojoj industriji, uz umrežavanje i catering.

Što dobivaš:

  • Osobnu "do’s and don’ts" checklistu za svoj tim
  • Menadžerski alat od 5 pitanja koji možeš primijeniti već sutra
  • Zaključke potvrđene stvarnim slučajevima
  • Nova poznanstva s voditeljima koji se nose s istim izazovima

Zahvaljujući našem partneru i domaćinu Bugatti Rimac, na eventu su osigurani hrana i piće, poticajni razgovori i izvrsno društvo!

​Napomena: Kako bismo vam omogućili što kvalitetnije praktično iskustvo, broj mjesta na događanju je ograničen te, nažalost, nismo u mogućnosti prihvatiti sve prijave.

From ChatGPT to AI Agents: What Professionals Need to Learn Now

AI is moving fast. Most people have tried ChatGPT, but very few understand what comes next: AI agents.
This first meetup by AI Trainings Benelux is designed to explain, in simple and practical terms, how AI agents work and why they matter for professionals, teams, startups, and organizations.
We will go beyond basic prompting and discuss how AI can support real workflows: using tools, retrieving information, remembering context, following instructions, and working with human oversight.
During this session, we will cover:

  • The difference between ChatGPT, copilots, and AI agents
  • What AI agents can actually do in professional contexts
  • Key concepts such as RAG, memory, tools, MCP, guardrails, and human-in-the-loop
  • Why data quality and governance still matter
  • How professionals can start learning AI without getting lost in the hype
  • Practical examples of how AI agents can support business workflows

This event is for professionals, students, founders, analysts, consultants, project managers, and anyone who wants to understand how AI can be used beyond simple chat conversations.
No advanced technical background is required.
The goal is simple: help people understand what is coming, what is already useful, and how to start building real AI literacy.
Come if you want to learn, ask questions, and meet people interested in AI, data, automation, and the future of work.

Agenda

18:30 – Welcome & Introduction
Quick introduction to AI Trainings Benelux and the goal of the community.
18:40 – From ChatGPT to AI Agents
What changed, why agents matter, and how they differ from traditional chatbots.
19:00 – The Key Concepts Everyone Should Know
RAG, memory, tools, MCP, guardrails, human-in-the-loop, and orchestration explained simply.
19:25 – Practical Examples
How AI agents can support research, reporting, business analysis, customer support, and internal workflows.
19:45 – Q&A and Discussion
Open questions, discussion, and networking.

Claude for the Enterprise: Beyond the Hype, Into Production?

Lisbon, 🇵🇹 Portugal

We're back from summer, and DSPT is coming back swinging, this is the first event in our 10-year anniversary series, and we're kicking it off with an enterprise AI heavyweight.

Lisbon, let's talk about Claude in production
Everyone's experimented with prompts. Far fewer teams have shipped AI that survives contact with production-critical systems, the messy reality of legacy infrastructure, compliance, latency, and "what happens when it's wrong."

DSPT × Indicium AI are teaming up for "Claude for the Enterprise: Beyond the Hype, Into Production."

Indicium AI, one of Anthropic's key partners deploying AI systems into large enterprises across Financial Services, Energy, and Healthcare, is opening its Lisbon offices for this one. We'll hear how Claude actually gets from prompt to production inside real enterprise environments, and get an unfiltered take on what it takes to keep AI slop out of systems that can't afford to break.

Expect real war stories, hard-won lessons, and high-level networking with Lisbon's top data scientists, ML engineers, and AI builders — with snacks and drinks to keep the conversation going.

📍 In-person: Indicium AI Offices Lisbon — Praça Marquês de Pombal 2, 1250-161 Lisbon

🗣️ Speakers

  • Alex Juarez – Indicium AI — "From Prompt to Production: Using Claude in the Enterprise"
  • Diogo Gonçalves – TensorOps — "The Game Changed. Did Your Team? - No AI Slop on Production-Critical Systems"

🗓️ Agenda
17:30 – Reception
18:00 – DSPT Kickoff & 10-year celebration toast
18:05 – From Prompt to Production: Using Claude in the Enterprise (Alex Juarez)
18:40 – The Game Changed. Did Your Team? (Diogo Gonçalves)

See you soon 👋
