For over a decade, we’ve witnessed the rapid evolution of technology, an exponential journey that has reshaped industries, workflows, and the way we think about problem-solving.
However, alongside innovation comes an unintended byproduct: complexity. QED 2025 is here to challenge that notion, embracing the theme of UNcomplex to explore how we can simplify modern enterprise IT without compromising innovation.
This May, QED returns to Zadar to find answers.
UNcomplex: Rethink, Redesign, Simplify
How many people did you need to coordinate with to ship a project in the early days of your IT career? How many systems did you interact with? How many lines of code were required to get the job done? Chances are, the numbers have grown significantly over the years. What used to be a clear and manageable process has evolved into a web of interdependencies, creating friction and slowing progress.
The theme UNcomplex isn’t just about simplifying for simplicity’s sake – it’s a mindset that challenges us to rethink assumptions, strip away unnecessary layers, and build intuitive, impactful, and user-friendly solutions. By focusing on what truly matters, we can design systems and organizations that work for us, not against us.
What to Expect at QED 2025
QED has always been a meeting point for tech and business leaders to learn, connect, and have fun. This year will be no different – but with a sharper focus on reducing complexity in our professional and technical worlds.
Key topics will include:
- AI and Automation: How to use AI to streamline operations without adding unnecessary layers.
- Next-Gen Software Development: Simplifying workflows and architectures for faster, cleaner deployments.
- Data Engineering: Strategies to manage and make sense of the growing maze of data platforms.
- Platform Thinking: Building scalable systems that remain simple to manage.
- Modern Runtime Infrastructure: Balancing flexibility and efficiency in dynamic environments.
- Each session will offer actionable insights, real-world case studies, and opportunities for engaging thought-provoking discussions.
- Building a Simpler Future Together
Last year, we explored the idea of a Playground – a dynamic space where creativity and experimentation thrive. This year, we’re focusing on untangling the complexity in the systems we’ve built.
As Scott E. Page said:
“Complex systems are inherently interesting, producers of amazing novelty, and not clean and simple, which makes them a lively playground for the mind.”
At QED 2025, we’ll take on the challenge of simplifying our work, technology, and ultimately, our lives. From rethinking communication channels to addressing organizational and technical inefficiencies, we’ll collaboratively design a future that prioritizes clarity and purpose.
