Conference

July 3 & 4

The meeting place for everyone shaping the future – in start-ups, science and academia, industry and venture capital, politics, art, and society. High-profile speakers and artists will provide insights into the latest developments and discuss the big questions of our time. Where is AI taking us – and can Europe keep up? Is the breakthrough of robotics imminent? What does the future of clean energy supply look like? How do we turn start-ups into global market leaders? And how can a digital public sphere be created that unites rather than divides?

In workshops and networking formats, you'll learn how to leverage innovation for yourself, your company, and your organization, and you'll expand your network. Experience the future – through art, VR experiences, prototypes – in the Experience Area.
