Upgrade Your Code. Upgrade Your Mind.

Build Stuff 2025 is more than just a software development conference—it’s a high-energy space where innovation, frequency, and collaboration converge. This year, we’re focusing on how resonance, alignment, and energy shape the future of software development. Attendees will experience not just technical insights, but an entire shift in how they think, create, and innovate.

Build Stuff brings world-class speakers who share the latest developments, trends, and innovations, as well as new directions in software development. Whether it's deep tech insights, hands-on workshops, or discussions about the evolving nature of engineering, Build Stuff delivers knowledge that resonates.

From great lectures by top industry leaders to engaging sessions, networking opportunities, and fun social events, Build Stuff is set to be one of the most impactful gatherings for developers and tech professionals alike.

Since its inception in November 2012, when Build Stuff was the first dedicated conference for developers in the Baltic states, it has grown to become the largest developer event in the region. Now, in its 14th year, it continues to attract professionals seeking a conference that transforms, not just informs.

Who is Build Stuff for? Build Stuff is designed for everyone involved in software development—developers, team leads, agile/scrum coaches, engineering managers, executives, founders, and more.

Our commitment to inclusivity remains a core value. Build Stuff is dedicated to providing a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of gender, gender identity, age, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, race, ethnicity, religion (or lack thereof), or technology choices. Our code of conduct ensures that we uphold these principles, fostering a safe and inclusive space for all attendees.

Diversity and inclusion are a key part of our vision. We prioritize diversity on stage and in our audience, ensuring a broad range of perspectives and voices are represented. Between 2018 and 2024, we provided hundreds of free tickets to individuals from underrepresented groups in the technology and open-source communities, helping make Build Stuff accessible to those who might not otherwise have the opportunity to attend.
