DIGITAL TRENDS 2026: REALITY, REPROGRAMMED

In 2026, the focus moves beyond AI as a tool. AI agents are taking on real tasks and decisions, governments are becoming digital platforms, factories are evolving into intelligent systems, while control over data, infrastructure and AI is becoming an economic and geopolitical question.

At the same time, the event turns to the human side of this transformation: what remains uniquely valuable when more of business and everyday life can be automated – judgment, trust, creativity, communities and real experiences.

Digital Trends 2026 brings together technology leaders, business executives, founders, policymakers and innovators for a day of practical insight, new ideas and perspectives on what comes next.
