Software Engineering Events in Belgrade

This is the widest category on Brainberg, because software engineering itself spans a huge range of events: language user groups (Python, Rust, Go, TypeScript, Kotlin, Elixir, Ruby, Zig), framework communities (React, Svelte, Next.js, Vue, Laravel, Django, NixOS), backend architecture tracks, testing and QA tracks (ISTQB certification courses, mutation testing, test-automation workshops), refactoring and DDD circles, hackathons, and the long tail of "thoughtful engineering" meetups that don't fit neatly under any specific stack.

This page narrows the Belgrade calendar to Software Engineering events. It's a subset of Serbia's wider tech-event schedule, useful when you want something specific to go to in the city this month.

Why Distributed Thinking Matters?

Belgrade, 🇷🇸 Serbia

Golang Serbia Meetup is back after the summer break!

We're happy to announce our next meetup!

This time, we're bringing you two talks covering very different, but equally interesting topics.

Help, I Accidentally Built a Distributed Computer with S-Expressions
A slightly unusual one for a Go meetup — a deep dive into Rust, distributed computing, and S-expressions. Because why not? 😄

What started as an SRE agent for monitoring distributed systems slowly evolved into something much bigger. This talk follows that journey, from agent loops and structured execution to S-expressions, capability-based security, DKG, and a Rust/WASM runtime, and how those pieces accidentally started to look a lot like a distributed computer.

Speaker: Viktor Pele
🇬🇧 Presentation will be held in English

From Distributed Systems Fundamentals to Production-Ready Webhooks in Go
A practical journey through distributed systems and reliable service communication, covering CAP, synchronous vs. asynchronous communication, webhooks, retries, exponential backoff, idempotency, HMAC-SHA256 security, fan-out, dead-letter queues, and event ordering, with a hands-on implementation in Go.
Speaker: Jelena Lazic
🇬🇧 Presentation will be held in English

Two talks, two perspectives, and plenty to discuss afterwards.

And as always, there will be some great prizes from our sponsors!
We'll be giving away two JetBrains IDE licenses and one Ardan Labs Ultimate Go Bundle!

Roadmaps Conference 2026

Belgrade, 🇷🇸 Serbia

🚀 Roadmaps Conference 2026 is happening!

After all, we couldn't stay away for a whole year. 😉

Roadmaps Conference is back —
on 26 September 2026 at ICT Hub in Belgrade!

Roadmaps is the annual conference of the Serbian Product Community, bringing together people who build, shape and lead digital products — Product Managers, Designers, Engineers, Founders, Business Leaders and everyone curious about how technology is changing the way we work.

This year, we're taking a closer look at the tectonic shifts AI is creating in digital product development.
AI isn't just changing the tools we use. It's changing how products are discovered and built, how companies create value, how teams are organized, and what it means to lead product organizations.

🤖 What will we talk about?

Throughout the day, we'll explore questions such as:
🔹 How is AI changing product discovery and delivery?
What does the product development process look like when research, prototyping, coding and experimentation can happen at unprecedented speed?
🔹 What happens to digital product businesses when everyone can build software?
How do companies create a moat, remain indispensable to customers and compete when the barrier to building technology keeps getting lower?
🔹 How is AI changing product organizations and roles?
What does this mean for Product Managers, Designers, Engineers and leaders — and what skills will matter most?
🔹 What are companies actually doing with AI?
Beyond the hype, demos and LinkedIn posts — where is AI creating real business value, and what separates successful adoption from expensive experimentation?
🔹 How do we decide what to build when building becomes easier?
Expect practical stories, honest retrospectives, real-world lessons and uncomfortable questions — not another collection of AI buzzwords.

🎙️ A day with people who are actually building

We're bringing together experienced product leaders, builders, entrepreneurs and innovation practitioners from Serbia and beyond to share what they're seeing and learning on the ground.
You'll hear from people working on:

  • AI-native products
  • Product transformation
  • AI adoption in established organizations
  • Product strategy and leadership
  • The future of product development
  • And the messy reality of building with AI

And, as always, there will be plenty of time to meet other people from the community, exchange ideas and continue the conversations over drinks.

💙 This year's Roadmaps is a little different

We're turning the conference into a community-driven fundraiser.
We're partnering with Fondacija Petlja, which works to develop algorithmic literacy and make programming and technology education accessible to the next generation of builders.
Your conference ticket will therefore also be a donation to Petlja.
Because if AI is changing the future of technology, we want to help make sure that the people building that future are ready for it.

🎟️ Tickets

Tickets are now available through the Roadmaps website.

📅 26 September 2026
🕒 From 15:00
📍 ICT Hub, Kralja Milana 10, Belgrade

👉 Reserve your place and follow the website for the full program, speakers and updates.

✨ Roadmaps 2026 is made possible with the support of our long-term partner ICT Hub, as well as UNDP Serbia, Kancelarija za IT i eUpravu, UNICEF Serbia and FAO Serbia through the “Clicking Together with Citizens” initiative.


Come for the talks. Stay for the conversations.
Leave with new ideas, new connections and maybe a few things to rethink.

🚀 See you at Roadmaps 2026!

Kotlin Turns 15 🎉 + Kotlin-Swift Interoperability: Lessons from Real Projects

Belgrade, 🇷🇸 Serbia

Kotlin is turning 15, and we're throwing a party to celebrate! 🎉
Join us on 29th September for an evening of food, drinks and good company with the Kotlin community in Belgrade - plus a technical talk on one of the most practical challenges facing multiplatform teams today: making Kotlin and Swift actually work together in real production apps.

Aleksa Simić - Kotlin–Swift Interoperability: Lessons from Real Projects

About four years ago, Aleksa's team started adopting Kotlin Multiplatform on real client projects. This talk is the story of what happened next - told from the perspective of the people who had to live with the results: the iOS developers.
We'll look at how Kotlin–Swift interop actually works under the hood, and at the challenges it brings when shared Kotlin code meets a native iOS codebase. Aleksa will walk us through the concrete problems his iOS team ran into when consuming the generated APIs, the tools and workarounds they adopted to streamline the iOS development experience, and how that setup evolved over the past four years - from the early rough edges to where they are today.
If you're using KMP in an existing iOS and Android app, or planning to introduce it gradually, this is a chance to learn from four years of real-world experience rather than a hello-world demo.

About our speaker
Aleksa Simić is CTO and co-founder of Aetherius, a company that builds mobile applications for clients around the world. He started his career as an iOS developer and spent over 8 years working primarily on native iOS applications, before shifting his focus to Kotlin Multiplatform. Today he leads the mobile team and works on projects that combine native and KMP approaches, with a particular focus on gradually integrating shared code into existing iOS and Android applications.
Through his work on enterprise projects, Aleksa has focused extensively on the challenges and specifics of Kotlin–Swift interoperability, and on how it can be best leveraged.

Agenda

  • 18:00 - Doors open
  • 18:20 - Talk: Kotlin–Swift Interoperability: Lessons from Real Projects (45 min + 15 min Q&A)
  • 19:20 - Kotlin Turns 15 Party 🎉 - food, drinks and networking
