Five days Coding, AI, Open Source and Innovation directly at the Kieler Förde!
From 6 to 10. July 2026, the MFG5 Waterkant Area in Kiel will once again become a meeting point for developers: in Germany, students, founders, researchers and technology enthusiasts. ARIVA supports Coding.Waterkant 2026 in Kiel.
WithCoding.Waterkant 2026creates a unique space for software development, artificial intelligence, machine learning, open source, green coding and modern infrastructure topics for five days. The focus is not on presentations or product presentations, but on the joint work on ideas, projects and technological innovations.
ARIVA also supports the event in 2026 as a sponsor and will be represented with its own team on site. Because technology is created where people develop together.
What distinguishes Coding.Waterkant from classical conferences is the consistent focus on practical cooperation.
Participants can:
- Bringing your own software projects
- join existing teams
- develop new ideas on site
- Testing technologies
- jointly develop solutions for real challenges
The bandwidth ranges fromArtificial intelligence and machine learning through cloud infrastructure and open source to sustainable software development and green coding.
This open exchange makes the event especially exciting for ARIVA.
As a provider of financial data, market data, APIs and digital financial market infrastructure, we deal daily with topics such as data quality, scalability, interfaces, automation and modern software development. Coding.Waterkant offers the ideal platform to get to know new perspectives and work together with the community on pioneering technologies.

Innovation is rarely isolated.
New ideas develop where different people come together with different experiences, share knowledge and develop solutions together.
This is why ARIVA has been engaged in the regional technology and developer community for many years.
As a technology company from Kiel, we have been developing solutions for financial data, real-time market data, financial data APIs, white-label applications and digital financial products for banks, brokers, stock exchanges and fintechs since 1998.
Coding.Waterkant brings together the people who shape the future of these technologies.
See you in Kiel
We look forward to being part of the Coding.Waterkant community again in 2026, conducting exciting discussions and working together with developers: to work on new ideas.
We will introduce what project the ARIVA team brings this year in the coming weeks.
