We will have a bunch more speakers over the next few weeks.
Feel free to submit a "Apply for Speaker" to us
Get ready to be inspired. Our first four speakers are about to set the stage on fire! They’re bringing a powerhouse of knowledge, from the cutting edge of Web3 and NFTs, insights straight from the European Commission, the inside scoop on the upcoming HiveFest in Kuala Lumpur, and the latest innovations from the dynamic VSC team. This is just the beginning, and the energy is only building from here.
Stay tuned as there’s more to come!

Let’s make this hive summit unforgettable. The next big idea could come from you or someone you nominate.
The Agenda
Yes, we meet for 3 days and this means as well for 2 nights in a lovely old student town with so many things to do. As Aachen is at the border to Netherlands and Belgium, we will add locations to the Agenda to have this unique European feeling for each visitor.
Kickoff
We’re kicking things off at the highest point in the Netherlands on Friday, August 22, 2025, at 15:30! Our opening event takes place in a historic spot, a perfect place to unwind and recharge after your journey.
It’s easy to get here: just outside Aachen, nestled in the Netherlands, and easily accessible by car. Start your Hive-Summit experience with a relaxed atmosphere, great company, and inspiring surroundings plus some matchmaking and networking.

@borniet something for you to talk about your bot's ?
As Aachen is a student town there are many fair priced locations.
Let me know if you need assistance
as long as it has a bed and an airco , need to keep my head cool after these hot days 😂😂
OK, let me think into some infos about bed ans showers...
14 hbd payed , saw a b&B hotel in the same street , or do you know a better place to stay ?
There are plenty of places as this student town has a demand for this.
A big one is direct beneath the railway station
That might be a good idea ;-) But I do honestly believe that there are plenty more people that can talk about plenty more interesting things :-D

Youre welcome! Have fun!
Do you may have time to join??
More cool places for pictures are guarantied
Unfortunately not. Have fun!
It's going to be a magnificent event!
That place is simply beautiful, by the way!
I guess I should be there
We love to have you there!!
Seems to be that we might have a few photographers that weekend. Let's see if we can add some special locations
Kinda shocked seeing the location...
This is just disgusting to anybody, who identify itself as German, European, based on culture, religion, traditions... especially knowing history of that region.
Pretty sure, you couldn't pick much worse location for an event like this in Europe... great job!
Top of that, bar in a church, charge entrance fee in a church.🤣 (It's just part of the mocking on religious people, i mean christians, we all know, the rest are all saints!!!)
Just made a little research, who, which groups behind this mocking... well, not surprised!
Too bad you take Hive in it!!! And unfortunately, it says a lot about you guys and nothing generally positive...
Sorry, I just don't get this @pokermaria
That is a place which is sponsored and supported by German government as a top place for digitisation.
Hallo @detlev,
herzlichen Dank von mir, dass du/Ihr wieder ein Hive Meetup organisiert. Die Agenda liest sich ja auch super. Ich würde liebend gerne dabei sein, bin leider aber zu der Zeit in Dänemark.
So bleibt mir nur die Zusammenfassungen zu lesen. :-(
Liebe Grüße, Achim
Ja, das ist Urlaubszeit, aber doch schon nach den Schulferien.
Dann mal bis bald.
