Tech Events at Hotel Casa Amsterdam, Amsterdam

Day two of ChemAI 2026, the science-heavy conference day at Hotel Casa Amsterdam (Eerste Ringdijkstraat 4), run by the Amsterdam Chemistry Network. 09:00 to 18:00, doors open 08:30. The programme is presentations, panels, an innovation market and a poster session on machine learning for chemistry and materials. Listed speakers: Heike Riel, Tonio Buonassisi, Aron Walsh, Thibault Géoui and Alexander Hammer. Day one (12 November, AI House) is a separate registration. The ticket page shows no price we could confirm; startups can email info@acnetwork.nl for a promo code. No refunds. Why go: this is the research-heavy day after the founder-facing day one, with posters and an innovation market where you can corner the people building the models. Best for researchers and deeptech founders working on materials; less useful for general startup networking.

DDMA's annual afternoon on experimentation and conversion optimisation at Hotel Casa on Eerste Ringdijkstraat, with practitioners from Dutch digital teams presenting the tests that worked and the ones that did not. From 12:30, tickets 164.79 euro. DDMA is the Dutch data and marketing association, so the room is in-house growth and CRO teams rather than agencies pitching. Why go: the failed tests are the reason to come. Published case studies rarely include them, and this is a room where people present them in front of peers who will question the method. Best for growth, product and CRO people who run experiments for a living.

A one-day conference at Hotel Casa on platform engineering across hybrid and multi-cloud estates — internal developer platforms, the Kubernetes layer under them, and the operating model that makes them stick. Aimed at platform teams and the architects who fund them.
