For the seventh time in a row, OxyCon®, the web scraping conference, is making a return – bigger, sharper, and more insight-filled than ever before.

What started as a dedicated space for the web data community has grown into one of the industry’s leading online events.

Created with the challenges and ambitions of data professionals in mind, OxyCon® brings together the people shaping the industry from every angle: developers, engineers, strategists, analysts, founders, and decision-makers alike.

This year, the event returns on September 16 with a fresh lineup of speakers and discussions focused on the technologies and practices defining the future of web data.

What to expect this year

Through a full day of talks, attendees will hear directly from industry leaders tackling today’s biggest topics around web data solutions.

Here’s a glimpse at what this year’s edition has in store:

AI-powered extraction & automation: Explore how businesses are using AI-guided datasets, automation, and adaptive workflows to build smarter data pipelines and reduce manual work.
Real-time data & scalable infrastructure: Learn how modern infrastructure and browser automation help businesses collect adaptive web data at scale and support data-heavy operations more efficiently.
Governance, compliance & strategic value: Sessions will cover ethical scraping practices, compliance challenges, and how businesses can build long-term data strategies that balance innovation with accountability.

From the start, OxyCon® was meant to be an open platform for exchanging knowledge, challenging assumptions, and connecting with others working through similar problems. It’s been great to see how many valuable partnerships and ideas have started right here within the OxyCon® community.

Building on last year’s success

Last year, the event welcomed thousands of curious, data-focused minds and industry leaders to share real-world insights on web scraping and industry trends, building resilient workflows, leveraging AI, and turning public web data into business value.

4,300+ registered attendees
284 participating companies
16 expert speakers

The feedback from both attendees and speakers played a big role in bringing the event back this year.

“OxyCon 2025 was incredible - meeting the minds shaping the future of web scraping and seeing firsthand where the industry moves forward.”

Rytis Ulys, Head of Data & Analytics at Oxylabs
