Software Engineering Events in Ghent
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 Ghent calendar to Software Engineering events. It's a subset of Belgium's wider tech-event schedule, useful when you want something specific to go to in the city this month.

Upcoming Software Engineering events in Ghent
Social: DevBoat
Ghent, 🇧🇪 Belgium
We had a few technical talks in this group recently. Maybe time for something different?
Enjoy the calm waters of the rive Leie nearby Ghent on a private boat. Take turns steering yourself or relax as passenger.
Duration of the boat trip is 2 hours, but we need to be 15 min advance at Minerva boat company for registration. We will pass through a green area south of Ghent. Opportunities for photography.
Price per person is 10 euros.
Cross-Fertilization Workshop: High-Speed Optical Modulators
Ghent, 🇧🇪 Belgium
Bringing together different projects working on high-speed optical modulators to give you the latest updates on the technology.
ePIXfab is organizing a new Cross-Fertilization Workshop on High-Speed Optical Modulators, bringing together several European research projects working on related photonic technologies.
Cross-fertilization workshops are a recurring format organized by ePIXfab to connect researchers, engineers, and industry partners working on complementary aspects in photonics. These events bring together a specialized audience, enabling in-depth technical discussions that broaden perspectives on the technology and its potential applications while also fostering new collaborations between European partners. Previous editions have focused on topics such as Heterogeneous Integration and Applications in Quantum Photonics.
This new edition focuses on high-speed optical modulators, a key enabling technology in integrated photonics. The workshop will explore developments and challenges across the entire technology chain, including fabrication, integration, characterization, packaging, and applications. The event is co-organized by several EU-funded projects active in this area including PHORMIC, PhotonixFAB, DYNAMOS, PATTERN, STARLIGHT, LOLIPOP, and SPRINTER.
This workshop can be attended in person or online.
What to ExpectThe workshop will feature a two-day technical program covering the full ecosystem of high-speed optical modulator technologies. Key topics include:
- Presentations from EU research projects working on high-speed modulator technologies
- Material platforms for modulators
- Heterogeneous integration approaches
- Packaging of high-speed photonic devices
- EDA tools
- Measurement techniques and system-level evaluation
- Applications of high-speed modulators across photonics systems
This workshop is intended for professionals and researchers involved in integrated photonics and high-speed optical systems, including:
- Researchers and students from universities and research institutes
- PIC designers, application specialists, and technology developers from the photonics industry
The event aims to bring together over 100 participants from both academia and industry, creating a focused environment for technical exchange and networking.
