Over two inspiring days at GITEX Europe 2026 in Berlin, Mr. Subhrajit (JD) Sharma, Senior Business Development Manager at Kyanon Digital, had the opportunity to join one of Europe’s most exciting technology gatherings, representing Kyanon Digital.
The event brought together technology companies, startups, innovators, and business leaders from across Europe and beyond. It offered valuable insights into how AI, data, cybersecurity, deep tech, and digital transformation are shaping the next phase of business growth.
For Kyanon Digital, the goal was clear: to better understand the European technology ecosystem, connect with global innovators, and explore how Vietnam’s engineering talent can support businesses looking for trusted technology partners.
Key Takeaways from GITEX Europe 2026
Europe is moving from AI hype to practical AI adoption
Across conference sessions and business discussions, one message was clear: AI is no longer seen as an experimental technology.
European organizations are now focusing on practical, business-driven AI adoption. The priority is not simply using AI, but applying it to improve operations, accelerate decision-making, strengthen productivity, and create measurable business value.
This shift reflects a growing demand for technology partners who can help businesses turn AI strategies into scalable, real-world solutions.
AI is becoming a strategic business capability
At GITEX Europe 2026, AI appeared across multiple business contexts, from enterprise transformation and industry-specific applications to productivity tools and intelligent software development.
The strongest conversations centered on how AI can support leadership, reshape the future of work, and help organizations build stronger execution capabilities.
For businesses, the next stage of AI adoption will depend on more than technology alone. Success will come from combining the right tools, talented people, clear governance, and reliable execution.
Deep tech is gaining stronger business relevance
Beyond enterprise AI, several emerging technology trends stood out across the exhibition floor.
Quantum computing combined with AI is opening new possibilities for scientific research, enterprise computing, and solving complex business challenges.
AI-powered cybersecurity is helping organizations detect threats faster, strengthen resilience, and automate security operations.
Semiconductor and deep tech innovation are becoming increasingly important as AI supports smarter chip design, manufacturing efficiency, and the development of next-generation technologies.
These trends show how AI is expanding beyond software applications and becoming a foundation for broader industrial and technological progress.
Learning Beyond the Exhibition Floor
One of the most valuable aspects of GITEX Europe 2026 was the opportunity to connect directly with companies and innovators from different markets.
During the two-day event, Mr. Sharma spoke with businesses and technology leaders from the UAE, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Lithuania, France, the Netherlands, the United States, Ukraine, Serbia, Romania, and other countries.
Each conversation offered a different perspective on how AI, data, software development, and digital transformation are evolving across industries and regions.
On the second day, the focus shifted deeper into the exhibition floor, with visits to startups and technology companies from Germany, France, the Netherlands, and other European markets. These discussions provided valuable insights into delivery models, engineering practices, customer expectations, and how AI is reshaping software development.
Startup Innovation and Product Thinking
GITEX Europe 2026 also featured startup pitch sessions where founders presented their products, go-to-market strategies, revenue models, and growth journeys.
These sessions offered valuable lessons on how technology companies are building products that solve real business problems.
For Kyanon Digital, the startup showcases reinforced an important point: innovation must be connected to execution. Strong ideas only create impact when they are supported by clear product thinking, scalable delivery, and a deep understanding of customer needs.
Connecting European Innovation with Vietnam’s Engineering Talent
As Vietnam continues to grow as one of Asia’s fast-rising technology hubs, GITEX Europe 2026 highlighted strong opportunities to connect European innovation with Vietnam’s world-class engineering talent.
Kyanon Digital sees significant potential to support organizations looking for capabilities in:
- AI & Data Engineering
- Custom Software Development
- Digital Transformation
- Dedicated Engineering Teams
- Enterprise Technology Solutions
- Reliable technology delivery partnerships
The event provided a clearer understanding of the European market, emerging technology priorities, customer expectations, and collaboration opportunities where Kyanon Digital can create meaningful value.
Kyanon Digital’s Reflection from GITEX Europe 2026
