The Bierzo campus in Ponferrada is hosting DevFest 2026, a technology congress focused on applications of artificial intelligence, according to Diario de Ávila. The event brings together experts in AI, implantable chips and antibiotic resistance, El Bierzo Digital reports. The congress was announced by the Ponferrada municipal government, which lists DevFest 2026 among its events.
Coverage of the congress links AI research to the study of antibiotic resistance, a topic Diario de Ávila highlighted in its reporting on the event. The gathering also covers implantable chip technology alongside artificial intelligence, according to El Bierzo Digital. DevFest 2026 is one of several AI-focused technology events reported in the region this week.
The programme details, speaker lineup and any findings presented at the congress were not included in the available reporting. Diario de Ávila's coverage of the event centred on AI's role in antibiotic resistance research, while El Bierzo Digital described the congress as drawing experts across the three subject areas.
What to watch next: whether the congress produces published research or partnerships on AI-assisted antibiotic resistance work, and further announcements from the Ponferrada municipal government on DevFest 2026.
