Future Product Days 2026 brings together product designers from around the world at a leading international product design conference in Copenhagen. This is where design meets real-world product thinking, from early discovery to scalable digital solutions.
If you're shaping products, refining user experiences, or working across design and development, this conference gives you the space to learn, connect, and deliver better outcomes. Expect practical insights, honest conversations and ideas you can take straight back to your team.
The Future Product Days stand out among international product design events for its focus on how products are actually built. The theory and visual elements are only a part of the story. The other part comes from the collaborations product designers have with engineers, researchers, and stakeholders to deliver meaningful experiences.
As a product design conference 2026, the event explores topics such as discovery, prototyping, design systems, AI in design and cross-functional workflows. You'll see how modern product teams balance creativity with technical constraints.
Join designers working across startups, scale-ups and global organisations focused on building products that work in the real world.
The Future Product Days 2026 blend inspiration with hands-on learning. The first two days focus on talks that challenge how you think about product design. The third day offers masterclasses where you can apply new ideas in practice.
The conference will give you ideas, tools, and frameworks to put into action, along with a roadmap for any future product design project you'll encounter. You'll meet plenty of great people while you're at it!
Speakers share real experiences from designing and launching digital products. Talks focus on practical decisions, trade-offs and lessons learned from real projects. Sessions explore how product designers can use AI tools without losing clarity and human-centred thinking when developing products.
Topics like these are covered in talks, including a session with Tinder's AI product leader, Ayal Prizant, and Alessia Rullo's 'Beyond Quick Wins'. And there's plenty more to challenge your thinking around product design and AI.
Masterclasses create space to go deeper into product design workflows. You'll work through structured exercises covering discovery, prototyping, design systems and collaboration. These sessions go beyond theory. You test ideas, refine your approach, and leave with tools you can apply immediately.
Workshops like 'How to design with AI without losing what matters' explore the connection between product design and AI further, ensuring that this technology is integrated while humans remain at the heart of products.
This international product design conference attracts designers, product managers and engineers from across Europe and beyond. Structured networking sessions and informal meetups create space for real conversations. You'll meet people facing similar challenges, and learn how they solve them. Our hope is that participants leave not just with great ideas but also plenty of good memories and new connections.
Copenhagen has long been recognised for its strong design heritage. Danish design principles focus on simplicity, functionality and human-centred thinking. This is visible in famous Danish architecture – Hello Sydney Opera House! – to furniture with the Arne Jacobsen's Egg Chair. And these values continue to influence modern product design.
Hosting this international product design conference in Copenhagen reinforces that legacy. The city combines historic design culture with a growing digital product ecosystem.
The Future Product Days take place at Lokomotivværkstedet, an industrial venue close to the city centre with easy access from the airport. It's a setting that reflects both tradition and innovation.
If you can, we recommend staying for an extra day to really explore the city and its design elements.
The Future Product Days 2026 rank among the best product design conferences in Europe for its ability to connect disciplines. Product design does not happen in isolation, and neither does this event. Our goal is to move beyond stuffy talks in a cold, impersonal conference hall and into a warm, welcoming environment that combines ideas with action.
Unlike many international product design events, this conference brings together design, engineering and product strategy in one place. That combination helps designers understand how their work fits into the bigger picture. You'll be challenged with ideas and information from beyond purely product design, helping you get to grips with all the moving parts of functional product teams.
With thousands of attendees and a broad programme, it offers both depth and perspective for product designers looking to grow.
2026 is the year to secure your professional future and take your product design talents into the future. Secure your place at Future Product Days 2026 and experience one of Europe's most engaging product design conferences.
Whether you want to refine your process, explore new tools or connect with other designers, this international product design conference gives you the insight and network to move forward. You will not only start building better products but also learn how to ensure the people around you can flourish together.
Product designers, UX designers, researchers and professionals working on digital products will benefit most. Anyone involved in building or improving products will find value in the sessions.
This conference focuses on practical product design. It connects design with engineering and product strategy, helping attendees understand how ideas turn into real products.
Yes. The masterclass day includes hands-on sessions where participants can explore design workflows, tools and frameworks in more depth. You're not just told about ideas but given the experience to put them into practice beyond this event.
Future Product Days 2026 will happen on 22–24 September in Copenhagen, Denmark. Tickets are available now.
