In less than 4 years, the WeAreDevelopers World Congress has become the world’s flagship event for developers with over 10,000 attendees. This year, the WeAreDevelopers World Congress will welcome the inventor of the World Wide Web, Sir Tim Berners-Lee, on stage as the keynote speaker.
This year’s theme for WeAreDevelopers World Congress 2020 is “Create. Apply. Disrupt.” The conference will highlight how developers are taking charge of the world in which they create, apply and disrupt our society. It will be a 2-day event with over 250 sessions and more than 80 workshops that will cover the most dynamic topics for developers such as Front & Backend, Quantum Computing, Cloud, Internet of Things, DevOps, Artificial Intelligence, Robotics & Mobility, Blockchain, Testing & Security, and much more. Renowned industry leaders and tech pioneers will once again come together to be a part of Europe's developer scene to show how developers are reinventing the world every day.
This year, the co-founders of WeAreDevelopers — Sead Ahmetovic, Thomas Pamminger and Benjamin Ruschin — got an amazing speaker to highlight the event! Sir Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the World Wide Web, will be joining the developer conference in May 2020.

Sir Tim Berners-Lee will come to Berlin on May 28th and kick-off WeAreDevelopers World Congress 2020. In his keynote and moderated discussion, Sir Tim Berners-Lee will be on stage in the CityCube at Messe Berlin and will talk about his invention and how he would like to improve it.
