Domain Summit Europe 2026 takes place 17–18 August 2026 at Die Bitcoin Metropole in Kempten (Allgäu), Germany. This is a deliberately small, business-first edition limited to 60 invited participants from the global domain industry, with a strong DACH market focus.
The pre-event Neuschwanstein Castle group tour on Sunday 16 August sets the tone: this is a relationship-driven summit, not a tradeshow.
Why this edition matters for the European domain industry
Domain Summit's move to Kempten and the launch of DomainSummit.eu signal something the European domain industry has been waiting for: a high-signal, English-language venue rotating across the EU, designed for serious business rather than booth traffic. Capping attendance at 60 forces the conversations that bigger conferences dilute.
After engaging with the domain investing community throughout 2024–2026, this is the European counterpart I've been pointing peers toward.
Who I'm looking to meet in Kempten
I run Competico (a boutique SEO, AI Visibility, and Competitive Intelligence advisory) and manage a portfolio of digital assets. At Domain Summit Europe 2026, I'm specifically looking to connect with:
- European registrars and resellers exploring premium domain monetization and content layers
- Hosting providers in the DACH and CEE markets that are evaluating partnership models
- Domain investors and brokers focused on category-defining .com and ccTLD assets
- Drop-catch, escrow, and aftermarket platforms that are building for the AI era
Let's meet in Kempten
If you've received an invitation to Domain Summit Europe 2026 or are attending the surrounding side meetings in Kempten, reach out. The 60-attendee cap means every introduction matters so I'd rather schedule a real conversation than rely on hallway luck.
See you in Kempten, 17–18 August 2026.
