Fancy a relaxed Sunday afternoon with some movement, good conversation, and new people? Join us for an easy social run through Mainz. We are planning to run approximately five kilometres at a comfortable pace that still allows us to chat along the way. This is not about racing or chasing personal bests. It is simply an opportunity to get outside, move together, and enjoy a good afternoon. After th
Oxidize is the conference for companies and developers using Rust professionally, held at Tagungswerk in Berlin across three days: one workshop day followed by two days of talks. The workshop day covers safety-critical development with Ferrocene, making Rust and C++ get along, integrating Rust into existing embedded C applications, and embedded Rust with batteries included. The talk programme is drawn from teams shipping Rust in production — Volvo Cars on its next-generation EV battery, Quantum Systems on unmanned systems, plus Vector, JetBrains and Woven by Toyota — alongside sessions on bare-metal ESP32, Embassy, shipping native libraries, vendor drivers and high-assurance projects. Panels cover the Rust job market and the practicalities of executing safety-critical work in Rust.

Product management conference in Berlin, Germany and Online

On 15 and 16 September 2026, the Dortmund industrial landmark turns into a platform for AI, blockchain, digital assets and emerging tech – with speakers from Microsoft, Google Cloud, IBM, PwC, Chainlink and many more. Day 1 is built for business and decision-makers; Day 2 is free and open to everyone.

Xen Summit is the annual gathering of the Xen Project community, and the 2026 edition runs for three days at the HEADS office in Aschheim, just east of Munich, hosted by Renesas. Two days of technical talks are followed by a third day given over entirely to design sessions, which are working sessions where contributors settle architecture, implementation plans and project direction face to face rather than sit through presentations. The published programme leans heavily on embedded and automotive virtualization, with talks on Xen on Renesas R-Car Gen5 silicon, mixed-criticality workloads, thermal management and the path toward safety certification, alongside a cloud and infrastructure track covering XCP-ng, XenServer nested virtualization and per-guest resource management. Other sessions cover Xen on RISC-V, Arm VHE-always hardware, formal methods, secure inter-domain communication over Argo, and compliance work against DO-178C and IEC 62443. The audience is Xen developers and maintainers, embedded and automotive engineers, cloud and infrastructure practitioners, researchers and students. The summit is hybrid, with standard in-person registration at $200 and a $20 rate for academics and for virtual attendance, plus a community social dinner on the evening of 16 September.

The CONSUL DEMOCRACY Foundation, in collaboration with the Landeshauptstadt München, hosts ConsulCon 2026 in Munich from 15 to 17 September, after the 2025 edition in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. The conference dives into digital democracy, open source technology and democratic empowerment, and connects an ever-developing community, inviting new members to exchange views and knowledge. It is for everyone interested in direct and participatory democratic models, digital platforms and open source technology. Expect demo runs, workshops on devising participation processes and empowering citizens in cities and regions in Europe, Latin America and Africa, sessions on open source technology and digital public goods, and keynotes about the democratic potential of it all. The programme runs in four tracks: practical deep dive, improving participation, open source and open gov, and an afternoon with AI, alongside a software developer special on contributing to the CONSUL codebase. Keynotes come from Roman Huber (Mehr Demokratie), Sophie Bloemen (Commons Network) and Joe Mathews (Democracy Local). Day one is at Flux Munich; days two and three are hosted by the city of Munich at Agnes-Pockels-Bogen 33. Tickets are donation-based.
