Our biggest event of the year is coming up – and you are warmly invited! On 3 June 2026, the CityLAB Sommerkonferenz will open its doors at the Umweltforum Berlin. From 9:00 AM to 8:00 PM, an inspiring, full-day program awaits you, focusing on digital innovation, administrative transformation, and the question of how we can shape the administration of tomorrow together.
