BECOME A PARTNER

WHEN WE SAY PARTNER, WE MEAN PARTNER!

In our collaborative world, ‘partner’ is not just a title, it’s a promise. As sponsored partners of our event, you are much more than just a number in our roster; you are a vital part of our community and the key to our collective success. We believe in fostering deep, meaningful relationships that go beyond transactions and statistics. Our approach is built on mutual respect, shared goals, and a commitment to achieving excellence together.

MORE THAN A SPONSOR WALL PLACEMENT

Your partnership with us extends far beyond the traditional boundaries of a sponsor wall placement. We believe in creating a dynamic, interactive, and deeply integrated experience for our sponsors, ensuring your presence is felt and your brand is actively engaged with our audience.

Partnerships that can last decades

At the heart of our conference is a commitment to nurturing long-lasting relationships with our partners. We believe that the true value of collaboration extends far beyond the event itself. Our goal is to create a symbiotic environment where partnerships flourish, evolving and growing year after year.

HOW WE BUILD REAL USE CASES WITH OUR PARTNERS

 

International Tech Partner Slack: SMEs & New Work

For years, Slack, a leader in shaping the future of work, has been a pivotal partner of our conference. This collaboration provides Slack with direct access to German SMEs, establishing it as a key player in the field. Highlights include Slack hosting masterclasses, Steve Henderson's inspiring keynote, and the dedicated Slack Connect Area, showcasing new work concepts. This partnership has been instrumental in enhancing our conference's impact and fostering innovative discussions in the tech community.

PwC: Bridging Corporate and Customer Clientel

From the inception of our conference, PwC has been an integral partner. They have consistently leveraged our platform to connect their diverse clientele, ranging from established corporates to burgeoning startups. PwC's tradition of hosting a networking lounge has become a staple of our events. This space serves not only as a hub for PwC's team to conduct meetings but also acts as a melting pot of new ideas and connections, open to all attendees. This initiative by PwC has significantly contributed to the dynamic and inclusive networking environment at our conference.

Bridgemaker: Corporate Company building with the Mittelstand

Bridgemaker stands out as an authority in guiding German SMEs on company building and fostering innovation. Our collaboration with Bridgemaker has led to the creation of a unique brand experience, placing their expertise front and center at our conference, a prime gathering spot for potential customers from the German Mittelstand. Through hosting masterclasses, engaging in panel discussions, and ensuring prominent brand visibility, Bridgemaker has become a key contributor to the dialogue on innovation and growth within the SME sector.

When SME, Startup and VC’s create a Biotop

In this story, a regional climate tech startup, fostered by the collaborative spirit of these entities, received substantial backing from Hagedorn and U+I, two prominent players in the regional Mittelstand. Further elevating their journey, Holzbrink stepped in, providing significant investments as international venture capitalists. With the help of the startup greenaccount we crafted a unique collaboration by creating the Hinterland of Things biotop to compensate our emissions.
