September 15 & 16, 2026
The Festival for Modern Engineering Leadership
Engineering has never moved this fast.
Find out what’s working now, and what to do next.
The old playbooks don’t work anymore. Most leaders are figuring it out as they go, without clear answers.
Come together with engineering leaders just like you to create a brand new one.
What you’ll learn:
- How teams are actually applying AI – and what’s delivering real impact
- What effective engineering leadership looks like when there’s no clear playbook
- How leaders are redesigning teams, workflows, and delivery to keep up
It’s not about more ideas — it’s about what you can take back and apply.
See how others are navigating this in practice. Leave knowing what to do next.
