cidaas connect 2026: Identity is the Foundation. Then. Now. Beyond.
On September 30 and October 1, 2026, Europa-Park in Rust will become the meeting point for IT decision-makers, IT architects, developers, as well as IAM & CIAM professionals.
When systems become more complex, the foundation matters
At a time when AI, platform economies, and connected ecosystems are rapidly increasing in complexity, one thing becomes clear: Digital innovation requires a stable foundation. Identity & Access Management forms exactly that foundation.
cidaas connect 2026 brings together various stakeholders from the IAM space to discuss how this foundation evolves in an AI-driven reality.
The motto: Then. Now. Beyond.
Long before the digital world, functioning systems were based on clearly defined roles, responsibilities, and regulated access.
These principles are timeless.
What has changed is the technology.
What remains is the foundation.
Our event makes this connection tangible:
It shows how timeless principles shape modern identity architectures and how they build trust in an AI-driven world.
Modern Identity & Access Management as an architecture, not just a technology
cidaas connect presents a clear perspective: IAM is not just a security topic. IAM is an architecture.
The following key topics are in focus:
- Agentic Identity
- Modern Authentication Principles
- Digital Sovereignty & Identity Control
- Identity as the new attack Surface
The event combines strategic perspectives, real customer experiences, and technical deep dives with the goal of making identity tangible as the foundation of digital value creation.
Two days that connect more than just content
cidaas connect 2026 stands for more than knowledge transfer. It creates a professional, strategic, and technological space for real exchange – between those who implement identity structures and those who design them sustainably.
A special highlight is the evening event on September 30, 2026: In a Greek-inspired setting at Europa-Park, the guiding idea of the event becomes tangible – as a connection between origin, dialogue, and future.
On the second day, the experience continues beyond the conference itself: Europa-Park becomes a platform for shared experiences, new perspectives, and lasting connections.
