GeoSofia 2026 Brought Together Scientists from Five Continents and Three Scientific Communities at the GATE Institute

From Data to Decisions: GATE Institute Hosts GeoSofia 2026

Sofia Becomes a Global Hub for Discussion on the Cities of the Future with GeoSofia 2026

The international forum brings leading scientists and experts to the capital to explore technological solutions for smarter urban management and a better urban environment

What will cities look like when artificial intelligence becomes part of the way we plan and manage them? How can data help optimize traffic, create a more sustainable urban environment, and enable more timely responses to natural disasters? Why is it important to test an urban solution virtually before implementing it in the real world?

These and other questions will be among the key topics of GeoSofia 2026 – an international scientific forum that will turn Sofia into a meeting point for global expertise in geoinformatics, spatial modelling, big data, artificial intelligence, and smart cities.

The event will take place from 28 September to 2 October 2026, hosted by the GATE Institute at Sofia University “St. Kliment Ohridski”. Sofia Municipality is a partner of the forum.
