The 9th edition of DevTalks Cluj-Napoca is underway
Monday 23 Feb, 2026
We’re beyond excited to bring DevTalks back to Cluj-Napoca for its 9th edition, in the heart of Transylvania on September 24th. With this edition, we are creating a moment for our tech community to reconnect, share ideas, and experience fresh content and formats - designed with you in mind.
Innovation meets opportunity at DevTalks Cluj-Napoca, both on the curated stages and the vibrant expo area with over 25 partners and exhibitors.
The 2026 stages – Main Stage, Programming Stage, Java Stage
Quality content is always at the forefront of our tech events. This year’s stages cover a wide range of topics, including but not limited to AI, IoT, Future of Engineering, Java, DevOps, Web & Mobile, Big Data & Cloud.
More than 30 international and local speakers will fill the stages and share their expertise with 2000+ participants from our growing dev community.
The Main Stage brings together the big conversations shaping the tech industry today. From AI and cloud to engineering culture and real-world innovation, this is where industry leaders and senior professionals share perspectives that go beyond code. It’s designed for developers, tech leads, and decision-makers who want a broader view of where technology is heading and how it impacts teams, products, and businesses.
Dedicated to the ever-evolving Java ecosystem, the Java Stage is built for developers who work closely with large-scale, high-performance systems.
What to expect? Dynamic talks on modern Java, microservices, JVM performance, frameworks, and enterprise architectures. Whether you’re a seasoned Java engineer or working on complex backend systems, this stage delivers knowledge you can apply immediately.
The Programming Stage is all about sharpening your core development skills across languages, paradigms, and problem-solving approaches. From clean code and software design to modern development practices, this stage is ideal for developers who want to grow their technical depth and write better, more efficient software. It’s a space for hands-on thinking and staying strong at the fundamentals that power every tech stack.
The DevTalks Cluj-Napoca 2026 Expo Area
The expo area is the social and innovation hub of DevTalks Cluj-Napoca. Here, you’ll meet our partners face-to-face, explore the technologies they’re building, and have real conversations about tools, teams, and career paths. From live demos and tech discussions to relaxed networking moments, the expo area connects ideas, people, and opportunities throughout the day.

Here, learning goes beyond the content stages.
The TechEdu Area is where curiosity starts early. Dedicated to kids aged 6 to 16, this space offers fun, interactive activities that introduce technology through play, creativity, and exploration. While you attend your favorite talks, the next generation of builders gets a first taste of coding, robotics, and problem-solving in a friendly, welcoming environment.
The Roundtable Area is built for those who learn best by doing. Through focused masterclasses and hands-on sessions, small groups work directly with experienced trainers to explore technologies in a practical, applied way.
Discussions range from modern Java frameworks and clean architecture to cloud-native development and real-world problem solving drawn from production environments. You’ll analyze scenarios, ask questions freely, and get direct feedback from international experts who work with these technologies every day.
With limited seats per session, the roundtables create an open, collaborative setting. Here, conversations go deeper, exercises feel relevant, and learning moves beyond theory into skills you can apply immediately in your day-to-day work.
DevTalks Cluj-Napoca is also about the moments between sessions. The conversations sparked while getting your access badge, the ideas exchanged over coffee, and the connections made in the expo area often become just as valuable as the talks themselves. It’s where developers, engineers, and tech leaders from across the region meet on common ground and build relationships that last beyond the event.
Are you ready to explore limitless tech and new connectivity highs? Then join us on September 24th 2026 at CREIC, for the 9th edition of DevTalks Cluj-Napoca.
