Manifesto
Why Build It Summit
From the Event Director
Build, baby build!
This is for the people who decide what gets (re)built, and for the people who build it.
CIOs and CTOs. Heads of AI. CMOs. Business and ops teams. Founders. Builders.
With my team, I ran three editions of NoCode Summit in Paris. Builders came from more than 50 countries, and everyone ended up on first-name terms.
Build It Summit is a new event, for every way people build today: AI agents, vibe coding, automation, low-code, no-code, code.
In the race to automate everything, this event bets on people. Being human is the superpower here.
You come to see what works for teams like yours, then make your own thing work. Live demos, bugs included. Workshops where you ship. Teams who show their numbers. One-to-ones that end with a partner or a hire.
And you choose what you build on, with the freedom to change your mind.
Consider this an invitation. Come to Paris on 1 to 3 December 2026 with a real problem, your stack and your questions. Meet the teams who took a build like yours all the way to daily use. Leave with first names you will use again.
Welcome. Let's make it concrete.
