Program
May 15 to May 16, 2023

You can expect national and international speakers from politics, science and economy. The focus is on national and international activities (DACH, Europe, Asia and North America). The aim is for new collaborations to be initiated and stakeholders to be brought together. The coffee breaks between presentations and the lunch break offer interesting opportunities for networking and matchmaking.
