SUMMARY:Craft Conference 2027
DESCRIPTION:### Overview\nCraft Conference is an international software engineering conference focused on the practical craft of building great software. Its 2027 theme is “From promises to value\,” with a focus on turning good ideas into useful engineering practices and products. The conference is designed for senior engineers and technology leaders navigating software development in the age of AI. It brings practitioners together to share production experience\, technical knowledge\, and lessons from building complex systems.\n\nThe event expects more than 2\,000 attendees and features over 80 international speakers. Its approach combines technical depth with an informal atmosphere\, aiming to give participants practical ideas they can put to work in their teams and technology stacks.\n\n### Dates and venue\nCraft Conference takes place June 3–4\, 2027\, at the Hungarian Railway Museum\, also known as the Hungarian Railway History Park\, in Budapest\, Hungary. The venue address is Budapest\, Tatai u. 95\, 1142. The conference is hybrid: attendees can participate in person or online through a virtual event platform.\n\n### Program and format\nThe conference includes multiple tracks\, expert talks\, panel discussions\, networking\, and five masterclasses. Masterclasses are offered before the conference and on site\, with deep dives led by technology partners and a stated focus on core technical mechanics rather than vendor pitches. The page does not provide a detailed day-by-day agenda or session times.\n\nThe program emphasizes hands-on\, real-world engineering perspectives\, including software architecture\, development practices\, AI-assisted engineering\, product development\, and engineering leadership. The organizers encourage conversation as well as learning: speakers are presented as approachable practitioners open to unscripted discussions and audience questions. A product expo gives sponsors an opportunity to present products to attendees and receive feedback. A networking party is planned for the first evening.\n\n### Speakers\nThe featured lineup includes practitioners from technology companies and the wider engineering community. Named speakers include Barry S. Stahl\, Colin Breck\, Evelyn van Kelle\, Kenny (Baas) Schwegler\, Kevlin Henney\, Lada Kesseler\, Mallika Rao\, Michelle Brush\, Mouli Mukherjee\, Randy Shoup\, Ryan Brush\, Sander Hoogendoorn\, Taylor Poindexter\, Yao Yue\, and Yossi Sassi. Their listed roles span software engineering\, distributed systems\, architecture\, engineering management\, social science\, and technology leadership.\n\n### Who should attend\nCraft is intended for software developers and engineers\, architects\, data professionals\, product managers\, designers\, and technology leaders. It may also suit decision-makers shaping technology strategy who want to understand how modern software is built at scale and how strong technical practices can contribute to better products and businesses.\n\n### Attendance and practical information\nTickets provide access to conference tracks\, talks\, panels\, and networking. The ticket also includes coffee\, refreshments\, lunch during conference days\, and dinner on the first day. Sessions are recorded\, and authorized recordings and slides are shared with attendees after the event. Tickets can be transferred to another person up to 14 days before the conference by contacting the organizers. Team discounts are available by inquiry.\nhttps://craft-conf.com/2027?ref=ainave
