Counting down the days 'til Nordic APIs Summit 2026

Bill Doerrfeld | September 28, 2026

Nordic APIs Summit is going deep on agentic AI and APIs this year.


Two weeks to go 'til Nordic APIs Summit 2026. 🤯 We just passed 200 registrations, and the speaker lineup is one of the best we've ever assembled.


Can't wait for my yearly return to Stockholm to see all my friends and colleagues in the API space. This will be Nordic APIs' ninth Summit in Stockholm!


With the headlines focusing on AI agent breaches — particularly thinking about how OpenAI's testing went haywire 😬 — I can't think of a better time for this event and our theme around evolving APIs for the agentic era.


The lineup explores agentic AI from multiple angles — optimizing APIs for tools and MCP, securing agentic AI with least privilege and authorization, practical case studies and takeaways, emerging standards, and much more.


The full agenda features 60+ speakers. I had the privilege of reviewing submissions alongside the speaker committee this year, and we got some fantastic proposals.


I'll be giving a talk on the differences between agentic API consumption and traditional API consumption. I'm also looking forward to the unconference on day zero and moderating a track on agentic AI security.


If you're in the area, definitely consider coming. Check out the full lineup.
