EONA-X DANUBE TOUR
EONA-X is officially launching its European tour. For its first international edition, our summit is heading beyond Paris to Bratislava! 🇸🇰
This edition will take us to Bratislava, where EONA-X is bringing data spaces to Slovakia in partnership with the Slovakian Industry Innovation Cluster and the European project DEPLOYTOUR.
The European Data & AI Summit 2026, taking place on 22 January 2026 in Bratislava, brings together experts from across Europe to explore how data sharing and artificial intelligence are shaping the future of logistics, mobility, and tourism. As part of the EONA-X Danube Tour and hosted by Comenius University, the event focuses on practical use cases, policy frameworks, and cross-sector collaboration.

- The panel will highlight women’s roles, visibility, and impact across passenger transport, tourism, and digital ecosystems. It will address inclusion, digitalization, AI, and the barriers women face in the sector.
Speakers and Audiences
Speakers and moderators across four panels will share expert insights and real-world uses of data and AI. Participants will hear practical experiences and strategic perspectives from the European logistics, mobility, and tourism ecosystem.
The summit brings together a wide range of sectors. Speakers come from policy, the public sector, transport, tourism, and innovation ecosystems. They are connected by data sharing, AI-enabled mobility, and cross-sector cooperation. Speakers represent several European countries, including Slovakia, Italy, Switzerland, France, and Austria.
Participants can join dedicated networking sessions after the panels. These moments support exchange, partnerships, and project discussions. They also strengthen cross-border and European cooperation.
The initiative targets professionals in mobility, transport, tourism, logistics, data, and AI. It also addresses public-sector decision-makers and policy experts. Industry leaders, project managers, researchers, consultants, and innovation practitioners are encouraged to participate.
Stay ahead in logistics, mobility, and tourism innovation — join the conversation at the European Data & AI Summit. Connect with industry leaders, policymakers, and researchers driving the future of data-driven transport solutions across Europe.
