Every year, the EGI conference brings together scientists, service providers, technical experts, policy makers, and early-career researchers to present their work, join workshops and trainings, participate in project meetings, and overall to experience the pleasure of meeting each other in person (again).

This year, the conference brings us to lovely Ghent, where it will take over the historic 13th-century ‘Bijloke’ venue for an engaging and full conference programme.

We are excited to share that the EGI2026 programme is officially live! Check out the lineup of expert speakers, interactive workshops, and networking sessions designed to drive data-intensive science forward.

As always, we will also ensure you get the chance to discover this amazing city through our social programme (look for the add-ons on the registration pages). 

Please note that, while you will receive a list of discounted hotels upon registration, EGI2026 does not use any third-party agencies for accommodations. Do not share your credit card info with anyone claiming to book rooms on our behalf. If you are concerned about the legitimacy of an EGI2026 mail, feel free to forward it to us at events[at]egi[dot]eu.
