WHY ATTEND
Right now, every software founder is making the same decisions in isolation. Whether to rebuild or bolt on. Where AI actually cuts costs versus where it just adds complexity. Which GTM motions still work. Two days in Barcelona won't give you all the answers, but you'll leave knowing what the best-run companies in Europe are actually doing, not what they're saying in press releases.
WHY ATTEND?
The Format
ONE PROGRAMME,
THREE FORMATS.
Shift Meetings
Europe's Largest Pattern Matching Opportunity
8,000 curated 1:1 meetings, pre-scheduled before you arrive. Every meeting has context. None are cold. This is how you find out what everyone else is actually doing. .
Shift Roundtables
The Conversations Founders Cannot Have Anywhere Else
Peer-only, Chatham House Rules. No cameras, no vendors. Because the only way to find out what's actually working is to be in a room where nobody's performing. .
Shift Experiences
Nine Barcelona Experiences. Zero Like This at Any Other European Conference.
Catamaran, helicopter, winery and more. Nine experiences designed around the moments that create real relationships.
Shift Experiences
Curated experiences.
Going beyond the conference.
Each experience is invite-only and built around a Shift AI Europe sponsor. Designed for intimate groups of founders, investors, and operators, they create the conditions for the kind of conversations that turn into commercial relationships.
Sailing
Catamaran Boat Party
Private catamaran cruise out of Barcelona Port. See the city skyline from the Mediterranean while your guests connect over drinks and DJ.

The Community
Built on 10 years of trust
Ten years building the communities where European software founders do their real thinking. This is the next chapter.
"As someone building AI-native products in Barcelona, Shift AI Europe feels like it was made for this moment and for people like me. It's where the conversations actually matter."
Dani Carmona.
CEO, Supersonik
"We built a $10M ARR company on the per-seat model. Last year I realised that model was going to be the problem, not the solution. The conversations I had were the ones that helped me figure out what to do next. Shift AI is where I'm going to figure out whether I got it right."
Stefan Smulders.
Founder, Expandi.io
"There's a massive divide building between AI first founders and other founders who are moving too slow. After interviewing 3,800+ founders on my podcast, the winners and fast growers are building AI into everything they do. The best way to catch up on the latest strategy is to meet these fast growing founders at events created by Alex and his team at Shift AI. Don't miss Shift Europe!"
Nathan Latka.
Founder & CEO, Founderpath
Sponsor
