why bit summit?

we’ve got your caffeine and hydration levels covered. there will be unlimited coffee and water stations available throughout the day, along with energy bars and fresh snacks to keep you fueled between sessions. to help us stay sustainable, we encourage the reuse of containers and will have a little surprise waiting for you at check-in to support this. to keep ticket prices accessible and focus on high-quality technical content, we do not include fixed catering. however, our venue is located in a vibrant area with countless restaurants and local ‘spätis’ just a short walk away where you can grab a self-paid meal of your choice. we are also planning a community social event to bring everyone together. whether it’s a warm-up, a first-day closing, or an afterparty, we’re still fine-tuning the format and timing. stay tuned for more details coming soon!

hamburg has many nice hotels and Airbnbs and the entire city has a great public transport system (HVV). while we do not offer specific group allotments this year due to a major trade fair taking place in Hamburg during the same week, we highly recommend booking your accommodation as early as possible. don’t feel restricted to the immediate area of the venue; as long as you are near a U-Bahn or S-Bahn station, you can reach us easily from almost anywhere in the city. check accommodation booking platforms soon to secure the best rates!

bit summit is an international gathering. the primary language for the majority of talks and workshops will be english to ensure our community can share knowledge across borders.

yes, the call for papers is still open! we are looking for authentic, field-tested stories rather than polished marketing pitches. check our cfp page for the submission deadline and guidelines (at the top navigation of this page).
