One contract, two conferences, four days. Berlin, 14-17 June 2027. GopherCon Europe's tenth year and HeyAI's third. The audience: senior engineers who build the backends, platforms and AI systems their companies run on, and the leaders who decide what those teams build with.
The conference is a paid, professional event. No expo floor, no general public. People come to learn how others run systems in production and to decide what to build with next.
Five tiers, Diamond to Bronze, and named add-ons such as the party, the conference WiFi, coffee, sponsored labs, and sponsorship that the attendees' AI agents can see. Every package covers both events and all four days. One contract, one booth, both audiences. Two-year partners get the 2027 terms for 2028.
Prices and the full benefit matrix are in the sponsorship deck. We send it by email on request, with the booth plan and what is still available.
Diamond is exclusive and taken by Google for 2027. Other tiers are confirmed in order of signing. Booth space is limited by the venue, so earlier contracts get first choice of position.
Attendees bring their AI agents. In 2026 the agents of 300 HeyAI attendees joined live through the conference MCP server: sitting in sessions, visiting sponsor booths, solving challenges. In 2027 this covers the whole week.
When those agents fetch the schedule, the speakers or a talk recording, they read the sponsor names in the machine-readable layer, all year:
No other conference sells this inventory. We checked.
Our scholarships bring developers from underrepresented groups to the conference: ticket, workshop, and depending on funding, travel and accommodation. The program runs together with Women Who Go and GoBridge. Any amount helps.
Diversity sponsors are listed on this site and in the scholarship announcements, and get an anonymised impact report after the event.
