Trefdag Digitaal Vlaanderen

Trefdag Vlaanderen Digitaal (Flanders Digital Conference) brings together Europe’s digital government community to explore this question through practical experiences in AI, cybersecurity, trusted data sharing and digital transformation.

On 22 October 2026, policymakers, public sector leaders, researchers, technology partners and GovTech innovators meet in Flanders to exchange ideas, discover solutions and build partnerships for the future of digital government.

Trefdag Vlaanderen Digitaal is evolving from a regional conference into a European GovTech networking event, showcasing Flemish expertise while connecting governments and organisations from across Europe.

Join us to:

  • Meet leading digital government practitioners from Flanders and Europe.
  • Discover operational solutions in AI, cybersecurity and trusted data sharing.
  • Exchange experiences with governments tackling similar digital challenges.
  • Connect with partners for future European projects and collaborations.
  • Participate in exclusive networking moments

Conference theme: sovereign in a connected world

Digital sovereignty has become a strategic priority for governments. AI, digital platforms and geopolitical shifts are changing how public value is created. Governments must innovate while ensuring resilience, trust and strategic autonomy. Being sovereign does not mean acting alone. It means making conscious choices about technology, collaboration and infrastructure.

At #Trefdag2026, we explore how governments can build digital capabilities together: creating scale, reducing dependencies and strengthening the foundations of a future-ready digital government.
