The API Economy Summit
at apidays
Everything you need to know
What it's about?
APIs are more than something only technologists need to know and worry about.
Understood and used as digital products, APIs power the digital landscape as we know it today. As the connectors between digital, technology and business objectives.
​
And their role is only getting more important.
​
This summit brings C-suite executives, marketers, researchers; together with digital and technology leaders to bring this to life.
​
To discuss API opportunities and challenges with accelerating digital agendas.
To realise real, commercial and societal value from APIs—and notably in an AI-everywhere world.
​
We cover the practical aspects of leveraging APIs and AI to derive significant value for organisations and teams as part of the digital economy. We explore value from technology simplification and investment, while getting the most from future ways to participate in the digital economy.
​
The format is hands-on workshops, with the emphasis on learning and knowledge sharing..
Participants can expect high value content, and real world case studies. They will grow confidence with designing and executing API strategies. They get practical advice to apply right away.

What is the format ?
The best API business ideas come from collaborative thinking.
We know that great API-enabled ideas come from “inside out” as much as “outside in” thinking. That opportunities come from conversations.
​​​
Conversations where knowledge of customer needs and partnership opportunities, meets the potential of underlying systems and data. Having people with disciplines across both is where the magic happens.
​​​
The API Economy Summit is largely facilitated in a roundtable workshop format. This creates the space for these discussions to happen in small groups, while also contributing to a larger group learning experience.
​​​
You’ll learn from industry leaders with practical expertise in bringing API dreams to life, you’ll also get to be part of interactive, inclusive sessions. Sessions that feature case studies, research, and expertise you won’t get elsewhere.
​​​
You’ll grow confidence in your own API-enabled business strategies, build valuable connections, and acquire insights to drive your organisation’s digital transformation.
