From Leuven to Athens: Celebrating One Year Since the Drupal AI Initiative Took Shape
By

on
23 April 2026
The Drupal AI Initiative marks its first year since the spark of conception at Drupal Developer Days in Leuven, having grown into the largest multi-company collaboration in Drupal community history. Launched officially in June 2025, the initiative has expanded to 34 partners, reached nearly 14,000 installs growing at approximately 260 sites per week, and secured $380,000 in cash alongside $1.5 million in in-kind contributions.
Delivery frameworks, funded roles across multiple organisations, and an active 2026 roadmap are all in place, while marketing efforts have raised Drupal's profile at major international events. As the community gathers in Athens, the focus turns to Rotterdam and the next phase of growth, with 12 additional partners targeted ahead of DrupalCon.

Over a decade ago, I co-founded 1xINTERNET on the conviction that Drupal was the best platform for ambitious web applications. That bet paid off. But recently, as AI began disrupting our industry, I found myself facing an unfamiliar feeling: uncertainty. For the first time in my career, the path forward wasn't entirely clear.

Site templates are available through two distinct pathways, each serving different needs within the community.
The official
Drupal.org Marketplace
provides a curated collection of site templates that meet certain quality standards, and are built on top of Drupal CMS as a foundation.
Community templates offer an alternative pathway for innovation and experimentation without the constraints of the curation process, by publishing the template as a general project on Drupal.org.
