    Join us for Kong’s third annual Tech Day in the Netherlands, hosted in partnership with ANWB.

Join the Kong Community as We Explore the Next Wave of APIs and Agentic AI in Den Haag

Why attend? This 3-hour session is a chance to connect with peers, exchange ideas, and hear first-hand from companies tackling challenges and opportunities in AI and modern architectures.

Arjan Franzen and Ralph Depondt from ANWB will share how they are evolving their API strategy to enable more dynamic, event-driven experiences and Kong will explore the key principles and architecture needed to prepare for the next wave of agentic AI.

Mark Beerens from ING Bank will join Arjan and Ash in a panel discussion to explore where enterprises are on their API maturity journey, the challenges of building and executing strategy at scale, and how APIs and AI will shape priorities and success in 2025. Mark is leading the modernisation of ING’s global API gateway platform and the shift to a scalable microservices foundation. He brings practical insight from one of the world’s largest banks on what it really takes to land a modern enterprise API strategy.

Be part of the conversation as we continue growing the Kong community across the BeNeLux. Registration is free but places are limited! Secure your spot now to ensure you don't miss out on this unique opportunity to be a part of the Netherlands Tech Day event.
