Durbuy Tech Days 2026

Two days of innovation, inspiration & impact

For the past five years, we’ve brought together IT professionals, technology partners and experts for a unique two-day experience in the heart of the Ardennes. And this edition (the sixth in a row), organized by Core ICT, in collaboration with AXI and Netleaf, is all about combining deep technical knowledge with inspiration, networking, and some well-deserved downtime. Once again a strong mix of tech content, vendor roadmaps, and fun, all in an inspiring and relaxed atmosphere.

Lenovo, your AI Powerhouse from Edge to Cloud

The smartest organizations are not choosing between cloud, edge, and AI; they are learning how to combine them to create better outcomes for their customers and their business in general. Not every workload belongs in the cloud, and proven technologies can remain highly relevant when combined with new capabilities such as AI and edge computing. The focus should shift towards finding the right balance between established and new technology to turn this IT landscape complexity into a competitive advantage.

Why our Durbuy Tech Days are a must-attend

"We have the opportunity to see all the major players gathered here presenting their latest technology. Things we would otherwise have to read about online are now presented to us firsthand."

Customer



"The added value is to learn more about new IT trends and developments. It's an excellent opportunity to evaluate our current solution and see if another maybe adds more value. I joined the event last year, I am here again this year. And if the opportunity arises, I'll definitely be there again next year."

Customer

"Its an important event because of the great network opportunities. It is very interesting to meet companies from other verticals that are dealing with similar issues but solving them differently."

Customer

"Most business still happens face-to-face. Personal contact ensures that people remember you, greatly enhancing communication. It significantly reduces the barrier for asking questions, which benefits collaboration."
