Nebius.Build/BER

The Nebius Build Tour is a series of in-person technical gatherings designed for engineers working on real-world AI infrastructure. Join ML engineers, platform architects, and technical founders for deep dives into deploying, scaling, and operating AI systems in production.

This is not a marketing conference — it’s a focused environment for builders to share architecture patterns, lessons learned, and practical approaches to running AI workloads at scale.

Nebius.Build/BER brings together engineers from Nebius and partners including Anyscale and Tavily, with sessions covering distributed training, running open source models in production, and scaling workloads across large GPU clusters. The program includes a mix of technical talks, partner sessions, and a hands-on workshop, where you can deploy your own model and connect it to a working inference pipeline.

The program includes talks on real architecture breakdowns and implementation details from teams running production systems, with discussion of inference scaling, latency, reliability, and cost-performance tradeoffs, alongside practical deployment workflows.

The content runs from 13:00 to 16:30, followed by a networking reception and a help bar, allowing time to connect directly with engineers and peers.

Registration for this event is now closed due to high demand. Please keep and eye on the registration page, in case places becomes available.
