Talk details:
20 or 40-minute slots
In-person at the Philharmonic in Haarlem, Netherlands
Presented to both a live and virtual audience
Topics we’re especially interested in this year:
Data sovereignty & digital autonomy
Open source sustainability
Backend & IoT architecture
BEAM adoption & team growth
Production realities & lessons learned
Scalability & green computing
Not sure if your idea fits? Submit it anyway — we’re always open to fresh perspectives.
If you’re new to speaking, the programme committee offers mentorship to help you shape your abstract and refine your slides.
We’re also committed to reflecting the diversity of the BEAM community. If you know someone doing great work, please encourage them to apply or suggest them through the submission form.
Not every great idea fits a talk slot - and that’s exactly why we’re hosting an informal space at Code BEAM Europe 2026.
Think demos, panel discussions, hacking sessions, lightning talks, games, or conversations in your language of choice. If you have something you want to run or coordinate, we want to hear about it.
The best conferences happen in the spaces between the official programme. This is us making room for that. Have an idea? Let us know. 21–22 October · Philharmonic, Haarlem
This is the reminder, that you can submit your talk for Code BEAM Europe 2026, 21-22 October in Haarlem, Netherlands.
This is a good opportunity to present a solution you have built, a product you are developing, or to discuss an interesting topic related to BEAM technologies (Erlang, Elixir, Gleam, and others).
If you have never spoken at a conference before, you are very welcome to apply. We are happy to support first-time speakers as well as candidates from under-represented groups in the software community. We offer comprehensive mentorship, which includes help with evaluating your idea, refining your abstract, and structuring your slides.
This year, we are looking for 20 or 40-minute in-person talks across the following themes:
Data Sovereignty & Digital Autonomy, decentralized systems, compliance, localized vs. global performance.
Open Source, maintaining libraries, attracting contributors, long-term sustainability.
We look forward to reading your submissions. If you have any questions or would like to discuss your idea before applying, please feel free to reach out to us at info@codesync.com.
Have an idea? Let us know.
