The API Platform Conference, the only event dedicated to the API Platform framework and its ecosystem, will take place next week in Lille, France, on September 18–19, 2025. More than 30 talks are scheduled, in both French and English, covering case studies around API Platform, as well as tools and frameworks related to this project, created 10 years ago and now a leading solution for building modern and efficient APIs.
Among all the incredible speakers and sessions planned during these two days, seven Symfony Core Team members will take the stage at EuraTechnologies, one of Europe’s first startup incubators:
- Kévin Dunglas, API Platform's creator, will open the conference with a talk about enhancing your API Platform APIs with Go thanks to FrankenPHP.
- Fabien Potencier, Symfony's creator, will speak about how LLMs are going to change the way we build APIs.
- Nicolas Grekas, Symfony's principal core team member, will deliver a keynote on Symfony’s configuration formats and their impact on DX on Friday afternoon, September 19.
- Mathieu Santostefano will show how to integrate an LLM into a chatbot with a JS client, a PHP API, and Mercure.
- Jérôme Tamarelle will help you optimize your use of MongoDB with API Platform.
- Mathias Arlaud will present how to streamline API performance with JsonStreamer & ESA.
- Alexandre Daubois will present PIE and explain how this PHP extension is set to transform the way we use PHP extensions.
