A three-day European developer conference in Malmo celebrating its 20th edition in 2026, bringing 1,200+ developers together across eight content stages for 100+ sessions on AI, software architecture, security, and the full engineering process.
Oredev is an annual developer conference held in Malmo, Sweden. The 2026 edition is the 20th anniversary of the event, bringing together 1,200+ developers across three days and eight content stages with 100+ sessions. Topics span AI and machine learning, software architecture, security, DevOps, and the broader software development process. The CFP is open via Sessionize. Registration is open at oredev.org. The exact venue had not been publicly confirmed as of verification; the Carlsgatan 6 area in central Malmo has hosted previous editions.
Oredev has run annually since 2007, building a consistent audience in the Malmo and Copenhagen area (connected by the Oresund Bridge, approximately 20 minutes by train). The conference is organised by Oredev AB and has maintained a practitioner-first editorial approach across its run, selecting speakers through an open CFP rather than a purely curated or sponsor-driven model.

Executives and non-technical professionals seeking business-level AI strategy content will find the developer-practitioner depth of this event a poor fit. It is not an AI policy or governance event. Those outside software engineering or closely adjacent technical roles will find limited relevant content.
