Digital Architecture Design Day, Nieuwegein, October 7
About the event DADD 2026
Digital Architecture Design Day (DADD 2026) is an annual conference where digital and enterprise architects come together to exchange practical insights, explore emerging trends, and discuss innovations shaping the future of architecture.
This year, DADD also features a BIAN stream with Arnab Mitra, Patrick Derde, and Hans Tesselaar, exploring “Reference Architectures: What BIAN Can Teach Us.”
Reference architectures are a key foundation for collaboration, standardization, and digital transformation. But how do they evolve in a world shaped by AI, composable architectures, and intelligent development tools?
The stream explores what BIAN can teach us about structuring complex business and IT landscapes, improving interoperability, and accelerating innovation. While BIAN was created for the banking sector, its underlying principles are valuable across industries.
Discover how AI is transforming the role of reference architectures and how they are evolving from static standards into intelligent foundations for innovation.
