Welcome to the 22nd edition of Devoxx Belgium! In this session, I’ll share an overview of this year’s inspiring speakers and diverse content, and reflect on how Generative AI is already shaping the Devoxx experience. I’ll also walk through the newest features of the Devoxx Companion web app, designed to enable richer online interactions, and give a quick update on DevoxxGenie and related code-assistant experiments. Finally, I want to take a moment to thank the program committee, community reviewers, sponsors, and of course our amazing speakers, without whom Devoxx wouldn’t be possible.

As the founder of Devoxx and organizer of Devoxx Belgium, I am passionate about conducting R&D that leads to new features in Devoxx-related applications like the CFP web app, mobile app etc. In recent years, I have been exploring and experimenting with cutting-edge technologies such as CNNs, LLMs and other AI tools. Most recently I've been working on the DevoxxGenie IntelliJ plugin which allows you to talk to LLM's both locally and remotely.
