Light Up Tech conference 2026: Accelerate your digital ecosystem

The tension – between ambition and reality – is what we call the growth paradox. During Light Up Tech conference on 22 January, we'll unravel this paradox and you'll learn how to maintain strategic and technological control over digital growth. This way, you'll learn how to build a platform that remains agile, precisely when everything is changing. In short, this is the event for Product Owners, Product Managers, Delivery Leads, IT Managers, Program Managers and others who are strategically involved in digital growth.

From building blocks to AI-first thinking 

When designing and maintaining modern digital platforms, certain elements are indispensable. Consider, for example, a composable architecture that quickly adapts to new requirements, or cloud technology that offers scalability without costs spiralling out of control. But also intelligent front-end and mobile approaches that ensure direct impact on customer experience. 

The real shifts are taking place at the intersection of AI and platform development. During Light Up, we'll dive into topics such as AI-engineering, LLMs, and the principle of AI Agent First Thinking. What do these developments mean concretely for your team, your architecture, and your roadmap? Our experts share how they handle data, integrations, and security. What works in practice, what doesn't, and what can you take away from it. In short, after Light Up: 

• You think in building blocks instead of separate projects 

• You understand how AI gets a structural place within your platform 

• You know what's technically needed to be truly agile 

• You can look critically at costs, complexity and impact 

• You've learnt from real cases what does and doesn't work
