Invitation to Speak at WeAreDevelopers World Congress in Berlin and San José (CA)

Dear Minister Keldo,

It was a pleasure to meet you at your panel discussion (“How Emerging Technologies Reshape Power, Security and Diplomacy”) in Davos last week. On behalf of Sead Ahmetovic, Chief Executive Officer, and Benjamin Ruschin, Executive Chairman of WeAreDevelopers, we are honoured to invite you to deliver a keynote / fireside chat address at the WeAreDevelopers World Congress, both in Berlin (link) and San José, California (link). The WeAreDevelopers World Congress is the world’s largest global gathering for software developers, AI innovators and technology leaders. In 2026, the congress will convene >15,000 participants in Berlin and >10,000 participants in San José, California – both events will feature over 500 speakers from 60 different countries. A number of policy makers, such as German Federal Minister Dr. Karsten Wildberger (our official patron), will be speaking at our congress. The central focus of the 2026 editions is artificial intelligence and its concrete deployment at scale – in enterprises, public administration and society at large. Particular emphasis is placed on digital sovereignty, talent development, innovation-friendly regulation and Europe’s position in the global technological landscape.
