After a successful first edition, the congress 'AI in de Stad' takes place on 18th September in Breda.

On 18 September 2025, the second edition of the AI in the City Congress at the MEZZ in Breda will be organised. You can sign up for that now (participation is free). And although it is the second time, it will be a whole new version. Because the world has changed, AI is everywhere and the question is not if, but how we exploit the opportunities that AI offers. And so this year, it's about how we exploit the opportunities of AI. We do that together. By learning from top speakers like Rens van der Vorst and exploring together what that means for your own organisation.

Focus: Ai in the City we do together
The Netherlands is awash with AI tools and AI experts. And so we go a step further. The Congress AI in the City 2025will explore together how we can use this knowledge and applications to keep our cities liveable. And learn how we need to adapt our organisations to seize the opportunities. During the congress we learn from experts like Rens van der Vorst, work together in workshops, experience what is already available on the market and finally apply all this knowledge in a serious game in which we get to work with Ai in the City together.

Because the city belongs to us and so should the AI in the city. Dutch cities are complex systems that are not only at the limits of their growth, but also have major challenges to solve, such as the housing shortage, climate change and energy transition. This will not happen by itself. For every square metre in Dutch cities, there are laws, rules, interests and stakeholders.

AI can help address these tasks by making better use of data and improving policy and implementation. But organisations often lack knowledge and capacity, and need to adjust their staff policies and retrain employees. It is also difficult for many parties to make AI concrete in practice. In short, plenty of opportunities, but how to seize them. And how do you do it in a way that is ethical and sustainable? And that takes into account local identity? That demands a lot from our organisations and partnerships. And that's why it is the heart of AI in the City 2025.
