The first meeting of the Dresden AI community has become one of the most exciting conferences in the region: Brains on Silicon 2025 brings together international experts, start-ups and companies. Among others, investor Philipp Klöckner and 5G pioneer Prof. Frank H. P. Fitzek will be there.
From the first meetups to the conference stage
The beginnings of the Dresden AI community date back to 2023. Back then, the AI Network Dresden was founded - supported by companies such as digitalwert and ostec as well as partners from research and industry. At the same time, AI Monday Dresden was established, an after-work format by DAIN Studios and elevait, which brought international speakers to the city in cooperation with partners such as Silicon Saxony and Cloud & Heat
Both formats - AI Monday and the AI Network - are independently organized, but share key players in Dresden's tech scene. This overlap has led to a growing ecosystem that has spawned numerous meetups, hackathons and specialist events in a short space of time.
