November 22nd, Ljubljana

The conference that once was is here again! Friends, friends of friends, full day of talks, stories and ideas. A chance to reconnect, share what we’ve been working on, and hear what’s been brewing in this wide circle. No sponsors, no pressure — just us, filling the day with tech, conversation, and plenty of time to catch up before the evening hangout.

But why?

Because good ideas don't go bankrupt

We used to gather under one roof, and it always felt bigger than the company name on the badge.This is a chance to keep that spirit alive — to learn, laugh, and stay connected.

You're invited!

Please sign up here so we know how many friends to expect, how much coffee to brew, and how to keep you in the loop with the latest updates.

Speakers

No keynotes, no VIPs — just people from our circle stepping up to share what excites them. The lineup will grow as talks get confirmed, so check back soon for the latest names and topics. You probably know all of them!
