Not a
conference.
A ten-year build-up to now.
RebelCon was born ten years ago from a simple belief: that the people actually building software deserve a room where the conversation is real.
Ten years later, we’ve never had more to talk about.
AI is rewriting what’s possible in software – not theoretically, not eventually, but right now, in the work you’re doing this week. The pace is relentless. The opportunities are genuinely extraordinary. And the community that’s going to shape what this moment becomes? It’s in this room.
This year’s theme is Celebration, because ten years in, at this particular moment in the history of software, there’s something worth marking. Not just what we’ve built. But what we’re finally able to build next.
Three Acts.
One extraordinary moment.
The Road That Got Us Here
Ten years of showing up, shipping, and learning the hard way. This act isn’t about looking back — it’s about understanding what we’re capable of now because of it.
Keynote + 2 talks + lightning talk
What's Now Possible
AI, new tools, new architectures, new ways of working. This isn’t hype; it’s practitioners sharing what’s actually working, what’s changed, and what the next wave of software looks like from the inside.
What We Build Next
The practitioners gets the final word. Not predictions, but commitments. What are you going to do differently on Monday? Ten years from now, what will this moment have started?
Organised by
Ten Years In.
More Possible Than Ever.
See What's Actually Working
Skip the theory. Every talk at RebelCon comes from someone in the trenches: real decisions, real outcomes, real lessons. Walk away with ideas you can use on Monday.
