Legendary CTO dinner
Talks chosen by CTOs, for CTOs
No sales decks. The summit program is curated by the alphalist community around the questions engineering leaders actually face: scaling teams, AI in production, platform bets, and the economics of all of it.
Kino 8, made to focus and connect
One screening room, no back-to-back lecture halls. The format keeps the group small enough that you actually know who you sit next to between sessions, not just trade business cards.
The dinner people plan their year around
The summit closes with the CTO & Speakers Dinner at Hobenköök. Long table, regional food, and the kind of off-record conversation that doesn’t happen in a conference flow. It’s the part attendees talk about until the next edition.
One ticket, the whole day.
Summit access includes the full code.talks conference on Nov 4 & 5.
