On Friday, 13 June 2025, hundreds of thinkers, creators and digital innovators gathered at Pakhuis de Zwijger for the fifth edition of the PublicSpaces conference: Shaping our Digital Future. With a powerful keynote speech by Paris Marx, who advocated for digital sovereignty and took a critical look at the power of big tech, the day immediately set the tone. The diversity of sessions, from alternative social media to AI for the public interest, showed how much is happening worldwide in the field of a fairer, more open internet.

The energy and engagement during the conference proved that there is momentum for a digital future based on public values. Did you miss a session or want to watch something again? All sessions are now available to watch on our website. Be inspired again and share them with your network!
