Exclusive Gathering – Invite Only

Unwind, connect, and exchange ideas at our exclusive after-work sideevent during Cloud Native Zürich 2026.

Together with SUSE, Exoscale, and A1 Digital, we’re bringing the cloud-native community together for an evening of meaningful conversations, fresh perspectives, and valuable connections, just after the first conference day.

In today’s rapidly evolving IT landscape, European companies face increasing challenges when it comes to maintaining their digital sovereignty — from ensuring control over data to guaranteeing long-term access to critical IT services.

This informal networking event is designed for builders, operators, and decision-makers who want to go beyond talks and slides. Whether you're working with Kubernetes, hybrid cloud platforms, or cloud-native architectures, this is your chance to engage directly with peers, partners, and experts in a relaxed setting.
