KNIME Summit is our annual flagship event that brings the data community together to share knowledge, ideas, and resources and gain and expand data skills.
Industry leaders, data scientists, analysts, and business experts join the conference to discuss the latest trends and technologies, attend courses or workshops, and gain insights that are not available during everyday work.
Rewatch KNIME Spring Summit 2025 here.
1. Get a reality check: Learn what’s hype and what gives value
It sometimes feels like AI has taken over the internet. One of our aims at the summit is to go beyond the AI hype and explore practical uses of AI in the workplace. The agenda includes talks by thought leaders on advancements in data science and AI, and product spotlights on how existing and upcoming features in KNIME software align with evolving industry trends and your needs.
- Look out for the Data Science and AI talk by Michael Berthold (CEO, KNIME), the fireside chat where he discusses whether AI needs a human touch with Andrea de Mauro, (Data & Analytics Leader), or how to avoid AI FOMO, by Dat Tran, (Tech and Business Leader).
- Find product spotlights: KNIME Analytics Platform as a canvas for human-AI collaboration with visual workflows, KNIME Hub teams for deploying, automating, and scaling analytics and AI, or KNIME Business Hub to govern and control analytics and AI.
2. Learn firsthand from expert-led discussions and real-world case studies
18 talks and panels. The speaker line-up includes experts in manufacturing, pharma, banking, and more. You’ll hear about use cases ranging from supply chain, digitalization, energy transition, process automation, through to production line optimization.
Leaders: Looking to accelerate AI projects? Hear how KLM is harnessing AI for compliance, or how Qualcomm is navigating volatile production flows and AI-driven automation.
Finance teams: We think the Finance, Auditing, and AI panel with speakers from Siemens, Block.ai and Finnovation Flows might interest you. Or, look out for the talk by Citi on how they scaled KNIME adoption.
Data experts: Looking for inspiration? Get a practical walk-through on building AI Agents with KNIME, or learn more about modeling with ensemble methods and XAI in a course.
