What a day! The KI Park Summer Event 2025 brought together over 300 guests, 45+ speakers, 240 KI Park Members — and we couldn’t be more thankful for the energy, the conversations, and the momentum you all created.
The agenda was as diverse as the ecosystem itself, covering everything from AI & cybersecurity, LLM deployment, and agentic AI, to infrastructure, regulation, synthetic data, and real-world project learnings. Across both stages and every networking corner, the exchange was alive — and it was clear that this community is not only growing, but thriving.
A heartfelt thank you to all our speakers, partners, exhibitors, and of course to all participants who brought this event to life.
None of this would have been possible without the incredible work of the KI Park team behind the scenes. A huge shoutout to Ivana Karavidovic, who project-managed the day with patience, strength, and heart — and to every team member who gave their all to make this event what it was. We’re already looking forward to the next one! See you in 2026?

We also celebrated the winners of the KI Park Newsletter Challenge with an award ceremony. Four companies—DekaBank, Deloitte, Deutsche Telekom, and KRONE Group—stood out by subscribing a remarkable number of colleagues to the newsletter during the two-month contest.
A big shout-out to the ambassadors from these companies who helped spread the word about our ecosystem internally. Your efforts play a key role in advancing AI in Europe and embedding it more deeply into everyday business practices.
Thanks to everyone who took part in the challenge!
