Where Europe's AI & technology community comes together

From intimate dinners with hand-picked peers to flagship gatherings with 500+ leaders, every event is designed to deepen relationships and accelerate your momentum.

Silicon Valley Insider Week is back

14-19 March 2027
‍
Europe’s most ambitious tech leaders, building at pace, thinking globally and learning together, in the place that has shaped global tech more than any other: Silicon Valley.
‍
Insider Week is built on one principle: insight from those who've actually done it. Over six days, you'll get the kind of access usually reserved for insiders, with candid conversations about what it takes to win in the new era of technology. Europe's tech leaders already have what it takes to compete globally. Now it's about taking that potential to the place that turns ambition into success better than anywhere else.
