API World & Integration Events (European Stops) — Rotating 2026

Overview

API World, organized by DevNetwork since 2014, is the world’s largest conference and expo at the convergence of APIs, AI services, and technology, uniting over 5,000 developers, architects, and executives from 100+ countries to explore API design, security, and business strategy in a €300B+ API economy. The 2026 European stops, part of the global series, will rotate through hubs like Amsterdam (June at RAI), London (September at Olympia), and Berlin (November at Messe), each a 3-day hybrid event with 100+ sessions across tracks like APIs & AI, API Security, and Integration Strategy, featuring keynotes, workshops, and a €12,500+ hackathon.

As the “neutral facilitator” for API providers and consumers, it draws from 12 years of legacy, with 2025’s Santa Clara edition reaching 10,000+ via streams. Expanding with 7 summits (e.g., API Design, Business of APIs), 2026 emphasizes “APIs in the Age of AI,” supported by partners like GitLab and AWS. Past events featured Fortune 500 talks on microservices and GraphQL, praised by attendees for “facilitating trust” that sparked €50M+ integrations. The virtual edition (September 8–10) complements in-person tours, with 80% practitioner content and 20% vendor-neutral. Sustainability is integrated via digital agendas and hybrid formats, while inclusivity shines through diverse advisory boards and accessibility features. As Europe’s API crossroads, the 2026 stops transform rotating cities into innovation forges, blending technical depth with strategic networking for API-centric futures.
