Tech events in barcelona

A hands-on session on Devin, the AI software engineering agent: what it is, how to hand it a task, how to review what it gives back, and how to fit it into an existing workflow. Itnig hosts at its cafe in Poblenou. The agenda is set - registration 18:00, introduction 18:30, an hour of building with Devin from 19:00, project presentations at 20:00, then networking. No speakers are named. Free, capacity limited, attendance has to be confirmed. One caveat from the page itself: the header says the session is in Spanish while the practical information says English with English Q&A. Worth asking the organisers before you commit. Why go: most agent talks are slides. This one puts the thing in front of you for an hour with other engineers in the room. Best for backend and platform engineers weighing up coding agents.

The Barcelona edition of DevOpsDays, two days on 13 and 14 November at BAU, Centre Universitari d'Arts i Disseny, in Poblenou. DevOpsDays is a volunteer-run community conference series rather than a vendor event. Friday 13 Nov is workshops, with registration at 13:30 in three tracks (two English, one Spanish). Saturday 14 Nov is the main conference: check-in and breakfast 07:30, opening 08:00. Platinum sponsors are Datadog, Grafana Labs and Progress, with Red Hat as supporter. Tickets go through tickets.devopsdays.org and no prices are listed. Why go: DevOpsDays rooms are where platform and SRE people say what actually broke, and Barcelona's edition has pulled a serious sponsor list for a community conference. Best for platform, SRE and infrastructure engineers.

CETT Fundació's annual entrepreneurship morning at the Hotel Universitario Alimara, built around the pitches for the 22nd Premios Proyectos Emprendedores. Opens 09:30 with CETT president Maria Abellanet i Meya and Anna Álvarez Jurado of the Diputació de Barcelona. Oriol Anguera-Torrell of CETT-UB presents standout final-year projects at 09:45, a conversation on learning from mistakes moderated by Helena Pérez Pérez follows at 10:15, finalist pitches run from 10:45 with a public vote at 11:25, and awards from 12:00. Hosted by Enric López, closing 12:30. The page is in Spanish and states no price. Why go: the projects are tourism, hospitality and gastronomy ventures, a real Barcelona sector that rarely gets a pitch stage of its own. Best for people building or investing in travel and hospitality tech.

A 90-minute conversation at Casa de l'Arquitectura de Barcelona on where technology actually helps run a city. Cristina Garrido, chief executive of Anteverti, and Nicolás Capo, director general of urbidermis, discuss new collaboration models between public bodies and companies, better urban management, and what it takes for technology to produce social and environmental results once it is embedded in city processes. Organised by Urbidermis with Belloch Forestal. 17:30 to 19:00 at Carrer del Rosselló 87. The page is in Spanish and gives neither the session language nor a price. Why go: Anteverti builds the content programme for Smart City Expo, so Garrido sees more of this sector than almost anyone in the city, and a two-person conversation gets further than a five-person panel. Best for people working on urbantech, mobility or public-sector innovation.

with Jordi Serra (IT Architect, CaixaBank Tech) · José Miguel Azcona Padín (Technical Architect, Salesforce) · José García (MuleSoft Technical Consultant, Salesforce) + 2 more

InnoIT Consulting and the Barcelona MuleSoft community run an evening of four talks on moving AI agents from pilot to production, held in Spanish at InnoIT's offices on Carrer de la Diputació. Jordi Serra of CaixaBank Tech opens on combining deterministic systems with non-deterministic AI to automate complex processes, with a real case. José Miguel Azcona Padín and José García of Salesforce cover Agent Fabric, for integrating, governing and orchestrating agents. Anyul Rivas of GFT Technologies talks about moving from vibe coding to harness engineering, drawing on a bank mainframe modernisation. Norma Díaz of InnoIT closes on product. Food, drinks and networking follow. Registration is subject to host approval, and the doors close when it starts at 18:30. Why go: working architects from a bank, Salesforce and GFT sharing what actually runs in regulated production. Best for engineers, architects and product leads building agents inside larger companies.

with Bernat Agulló (Organiser, Power BI & Fabric Barcelona)

The Power BI and Fabric Barcelona community's main autumn meeting, hosted by Plain Concepts at their Comte d'Urgell offices. The format is short, very practical talks, with the organisers' stated aim that you leave with one useful idea, followed by a long stretch of networking so the conversations continue past the slides. Bernat Agullo hosts. The pitch is explicitly for people who work with Power BI and Microsoft Fabric day to day, and the group makes a point that nobody in the room is too new or too expert to ask a question. Runs 17:00 to 20:30, free, with 18 people signed up so far. Talks are in Spanish. Why go: Barcelona's Microsoft data community gets into one room only a few times a year and this is the big autumn date, so it is the fastest way to find people solving the semantic-model problems you are. Best for BI developers and data platform engineers on the Microsoft stack.

with Josep Casas (Co-founder, Tacho (EuroPistachios))

A founder talk from Conector's events series. Josep Casas, co-founder of Naturitas and Food for Joe and now of Tacho (EuroPistachios), talks about growing an e-commerce business and protecting margins. Doors open at 18:00 at Passatge de Mercader 7. Talk at 18:30, Q&A at 19:20, networking and drinks from 19:45. Free, but registration needs host approval, and the page showed 31 places left. Why go: a practical operator story from a founder who has built several e-commerce brands, in a small room with drinks afterwards. Best for early-stage founders in e-commerce and direct-to-consumer.

with Mustafa Onal (Senior AI Engineer, Workfully) · Elena Tairova (Founder, Kelp Digital)

A technical Hack & Tell from AI Engineers Barcelona with Vonage: one talk, one panel, then networking, in English. Mustafa Onal, Senior AI Engineer at Workfully and creator of the open-source agent platform Kortyx, walks through a real recruitment system with multi-role agents, dynamic tool access and safeguards for sensitive candidate data. The panel covers GDPR and the EU AI Act for agentic systems, with Onal and Elena Tairova of Kelp Digital and AI Safety Barcelona; one panellist is still to be announced. Intro 18:30, talk 18:40, panel 19:20, networking 20:00 to 21:00 at AI Campus Barcelona. RSVPs fall under AI Campus's legal terms. Why go: a rare Barcelona room where compliance is discussed by people shipping agents, not just lawyers. Best for AI engineers and technical founders building for EU customers.

A full day building with Codex at Itnig Cafe, run as a community hackathon. A short introduction and Codex updates first, then building solo or in teams, closing with live demos and prizes. OpenAI engineers and experienced Codex users will be on hand to help, though no mentors are named. You can submit an idea or an existing Codex project on the registration form, and selected projects get showcased during the day. 10:00 to 17:00 on the Saturday, in Spanish, free. Already full, so registration is a waiting list, handled through Luma. Itnig Cafe, Carrer de Pujades 100, Sant Marti. Why go: a free Saturday with OpenAI engineers in the room is not something Barcelona gets often, and the demo slot is a real shot at feedback. Best for developers already shipping with Codex rather than people deciding whether to try it.

TestLab is the second networking session of Barcelona Activa's Idees amb Futur 2026 programme, aimed at young women entrepreneurs. Held in the Sala Emprèn at the Glòries entrepreneurship centre, 17:00 to 20:00. Participants bring one validation question (target audience, customer need, business model or pilot) and work it through with peers and ecosystem players. Expect sector contacts and concrete next steps rather than talks. Free, but places are limited, so register on the Barcelona Activa site. Why go: a small working room for pressure-testing an early idea with people who've been through it. Best for young women founders at idea or pre-MVP stage.

with Gabriela Soto (, ) · Jesús González (Security Analyst, Arkose Labs)

Two talks on data work: how raw data becomes a product that solves a business problem, and how security builds trust in a connected world. Gabriela Soto covers data products, with a focus on trust, accessibility and governance. Jesús González, a Security Analyst at Arkose Labs and a Le Wagon Data Analyst Bootcamp alum, covers data security. Doors and welcome at 18:00, talks until about 19:50, networking from 20:00. Le Wagon hosts it with Women Techmakers Barcelona as partner. Registration runs through Eventbrite; the page doesn't state a price. Why go: a short, practical evening for analysts and early-career data people who want to hear a working practitioner on security and a product view of data, then talk to others over drinks.

with Fernando Dellepiane (Co-founder & CEO, Vermut)

Fernando Dellepiane, co-founder and CEO of Vermut, in conversation at MOB Bailèn. He and two former Glovo colleagues started building for people over 55 in 2020; Vermut is now a platform where older adults sign up for activities, from vermouth and zumba classes to day trips. The published agenda is specific: why the gap between retirement and dependency is Europe's most under-served consumer market; what designing for a user nothing like you teaches a team that came out of Glovo's user experience work; moving from per-transaction payments to subscription and building a B2B2C tool for the partners who run the activities; and raising a 1.5 million euro round led by BITKRAFT with Gaingels and Calm/Storm while opening a US entity. Open questions at the end. 20.21 euros, 18:00 to 20:30. Third of four in the Legnds autumn series. Why go: a founder talking numbers and mechanics rather than highlights, about a market almost nobody in Barcelona is building for. Best for consumer founders and anyone raising internationally.

A full day at Bcombinator Hub on getting AI out of pilot projects and into operations, covering real cases, scaling and governance. Doors and welcome coffee 10:00, kick-off 10:30, then a keynote on democratising AI innovation at 10:45. The rest runs as a lounge programme with a live roundtable, demos, terrace networking, meeting rooms and open work areas, finishing at 18:00. Bcombinator puts past editions at over 150 founders, more than 30 investors and more than 20 AI specialists. No speakers are named on the registration page yet. In Spanish, paid, with ticket tiers on Eventbrite. Why go: the pilot-to-production gap is what most Barcelona companies are actually stuck on, and this is the rare day aimed at the people who have to run the thing rather than demo it. Best for founders, operators and investors in applied AI.

A two-hour hands-on workshop at Pier 01 where you wire Clay and HubSpot together into a sales pipeline that improves based on which deals actually close. Hosted by Tech Barcelona with HubSpot for Startups and Clay Club Barcelona. You bring a laptop and a 3-5 line ideal customer profile. The session covers finding and analysing target accounts with AI agents, building the pipeline in HubSpot, then a 35-minute team challenge. The winning team gets 1,000 euros in HubSpot for Startups credit plus Clay credits, and everyone gets 2,000 Clay credits and 14 days of HubSpot Professional. Doors open 16:30, session 17:00 to 19:00. Registration is approval-based and no price is published. Why go: a rare build-it-yourself session on AI-driven outbound, not a sales demo. Best for seed-stage founders and GTM people who want a working pipeline by 19:00.

Tech Barcelona's monthly-style afterwork on the Pier 01 terrace, run with Damm and Barcelona City Council. It's open networking for people building or backing Barcelona's digital ecosystem. Tech Barcelona member companies can grab a two-minute elevator pitch slot; applications close at 12:00 on the day. Doors 18:00 to 20:00, registration closes at 18:45. A HubSpot for Startups and Clay workshop runs 17:00 to 18:00 in the same building if you want to come early. Registration is on Luma. Why go: the easiest way to meet a cross-section of Barcelona's tech scene in one evening, and the pitch slots make it a low-pressure place to test your story. Best for founders, operators and ecosystem people who want warm intros.

The Next Era is an evening for Life Sciences leaders on getting AI out of isolated pilots and into real, safe, scalable deployments. Topics: adoption, new workflows with agents, governance and integration, and what it means for the business and for patients. The session runs in Spanish. Programme: 18:30 arrival and badges, 19:00 welcome, 19:10 talk on the evolution of AI in healthcare, 19:15 panel 'Beyond the AI pilot', 20:00 audience questions, then networking with catering until 21:30. Hosted by Marc Fort. Free, but registration is approval-gated and the exact Eixample address is shared once you're approved. Why go: a rare Barcelona room about AI in production for pharma and healthcare, not demos. Best for Life Sciences operators, health-tech founders and data leads.

with Nesrine Changuel (Keynote speaker, Women in Agile Europe)

The Barcelona edition of Women in Agile Europe, a one-day non-profit conference on the Friday, with a keynote and the New Voices sessions that put first-time speakers on the main stage. The stage is for women and non-binary speakers; the audience is open to everyone. Lunch, snacks and drinks are included. Tickets are 205 euros for the conference day, 280 with the Thursday speakers dinner, 270 with the Friday closing dinner and 345 with both; a two-person ticket takes 60 euros off and a five-person group 150. Both dinners are at the conference hotel, which the page does not name, and it publishes neither the venue, the times nor the speaker list. Why go: New Voices is the point, a conference that deliberately spends its main stage on people who have not had one. Best for agile coaches, delivery leads and anyone thinking about speaking.

with Joan Fuentes (Host, Mobile software engineer, GDG Barcelona) · Ekaterina Nosova (Host, Product Manager, GDG Barcelona) · Marcia Paola Rodriguez Briceno (Host, Marketing & Tech Consultant, GDG Barcelona)

The programme focuses on the topics that matter most in the ecosystem right now, with speakers from the Google ecosystem and the international tech community; the call for speakers is still open. Talks will be in Spanish and English. Organised by GDG Barcelona, led by Joan Fuentes, Ekaterina Nosova and Marcia Paola Rodriguez Briceno. Free entry, limited places.

Best for developers and technical roles.

Ververica — the team that founded Apache Flink — brings its practitioner conference to Barcelona for a full day, held in a cinema rather than a hotel ballroom. The morning is talks: a keynote on real-time data in finance and health, a customer story from a mission-critical deployment, then sessions on Streamhouse architecture, designing real-time architecture for AI workloads, and Flink at the scale where it becomes critical infrastructure, closing with a panel. The afternoon splits into two X-Stream Labs — streaming analytics and a real-time feature store — run hands-on by Ververica engineers, and you leave with a working application and sandbox access for seven days. Doors 08:30, talks 09:00, labs 13:30, reception until 19:00. Registration is through Luma and the exact address is shared with registered attendees. Why go: the people who built Flink, teaching it, with no pitch slot in the agenda. Best for data and platform engineers running streaming in production.

with Antonio Neri (President and CEO, HPE) · Fidelma Russo (EVP, President and GM Hybrid Cloud, CTO, HPE) · Rami Rahim (EVP, President and GM Networking, HPE)

HPE's flagship European conference, two days at Fira de Barcelona Gran Via across three programmes: networking, hybrid and sovereign cloud, and agentic AI. Antonio Neri, HPE president and chief executive, keynotes Architecting Your Sovereign Agentic Enterprise on Wednesday at 14:30. Chief technology officer Fidelma Russo takes the CTO general session on Wednesday at 11:30, and networking president Rami Rahim opens Thursday at 10:00. The showcase runs more than 80 live demos, eight hands-on labs, fifteen Meet the Experts slots and over 200 HPE subject-matter experts. Paid, and HPE has not published pass prices on the event page yet. One session on the Wednesday is partner-only. Why go: one of the two or three weeks a year when European enterprise infrastructure decisions get argued out in Barcelona, and the hands-on labs are the part that justifies the trip. Best for infrastructure, platform and network leads weighing private or sovereign AI.

Tech Barcelona's flagship congress, back for a sixth edition over two days at Casa Llotja de Mar, putting the city's founders, investors, researchers and operators in a room with its international connections. Six programme tracks: AI-native business, on how companies are built and run with AI agents; investment, on where capital is going and how companies reach it; robotics and hardware, including chips and new computing architectures; gaming, covering world models for physical AI; health, from drug design to brain-machine interfaces; and creativity. Partner tracks include the Catalan Pitch Competition and Startups to Funding with ACCIO, and an AI Factory track with Barcelona Supercomputing Center. Free admission, registration required; the full speaker line-up is still to be announced. Why go: it is the week the whole Barcelona ecosystem turns up in one building. Best for founders raising, investors scouting and anyone who needs the city's network in two days.

A bi-monthly bar meetup in Sant Gervasi for people building in Web3, AI and digital systems. No panels, no presentations, no agenda: you meet at a bar and talk. The group started out Web3-focused and has widened to take in AI builders. The room mixes engineers, founders and operators, investors and traders, and designers, working across crypto and digital assets, AI agents and applied machine learning. The hosts are interested in where the two meet, so agentic systems, automated finance and new coordination models come up a lot. Drinks are on the hosts, alcoholic and not. At Gimlet, Carrer de Santalo 46, 19:30 to 21:00. Free, registration on Meetup. Why go: the no-format format filters for people actually building rather than pitching, and the hosts work at keeping the signal high. Best if you are deep in either AI or crypto and want conversation rather than a talk.
