CDI Foundation events, including the flagship Beyond Boundaries Global Festival, bring together people working in conversational AI. Our events are fun and interactive, designed to learn from each other and to celebrate the conversational AI community.

We have a focus on real enterprise use cases, conversation design best practices, and the latest future facing NLU technologies.

Beyond Boundaries was a two-day Global event for generative AI and conversational AI professionals.

Beyond Boundaries takes conversational AI to new heights, forges connections beyond our screens, celebrates our community and breaks down the barriers between people, organisations and technologies.

Held in 2024 in Barcelona, Beyond Boundaries was the first of our ultimate gatherings of AI professionals, researchers, business leaders, and innovators from around the globe.

Beyond Boundaries will next take place again in Barcelona on 13-15 October 2025 at Museu Marítim de Barcelona (the Maritime Museum of Barcelona. This astonishing space dates from the 13th century and is located inside Atarazanas Reales de Barcelona (the Barcelona Royal Shipyard) in the Port Vell area of the Port of Barcelona.

Through Beyond Boundaries we are building a community, not just running a conference.
