On 11 June, we are opening the doors of our former data center in Schiphol-Rijk for the fifth edition of Tech Market. We are thrilled to welcome a powerful mix of CTOs, CIOs, CISOs, tech leads, and strategists for a day dedicated to innovation, collaboration, and real impact.

Why Building Control?
In a world where interdependencies are growing and assumptions fade faster than ever, control is no longer a static concept. It is an active capability. During this edition, we explore how organizations can maintain a grip on technology, infrastructure, and data. No hype, no sales pitches just practical insights into operational resilience, digital sovereignty, and the reality behind AI.

What can you expect?
Tech Market is where business strategists and engineers meet to solve complex, real-world challenges. The program offers a powerful mix of inspiration and hands-on action.

Program

The program brings together real-world customer impact stories and deep-dive Tech Talks on topics such as the IT/OT smart meter landscape, the future of network automation, and the evolution of the Central Observability Platform. Alongside the sessions, the LABS Innovation Hub and Demo Hub offer a hands-on look at technologies and approaches shaping mission-critical environments today, from Airgapped Cloud initiatives and Code Insights, to Audit & Compliance capabilities around ICF & COP, policy-driven Kubernetes control with Kyverno at Jumbo, and an Ultimate Recovery Scenario demo. The NS team will also be present to share insights from their operational context and challenges.
