To celebrate our third anniversary, we’re putting on a big summerfest on June 30, 2022, this time with a big bang, finally back on site at the former Tempelhof Airport – and with you there in person, of course!
With a view of the runway and to the sound of Berlin beats, you can look forward to an entire day packed full of talks, discussions, workshops, music and networking opportunities, organized in cooperation with the RosinenBAR THF.
In addition to the Mayor of Berlin, Franziska Giffey, we’ll be welcoming Sir Geoff Mulgan, Professor of Collective Intelligence, Public Policy and Social Innovation at University College London (UCL) along with many other fascinating guests.
Those confirmed to date include:
- Dr. Ralf Kleindiek, Chief Digital Officer of Berlin and State Secretary for Digital Affairs and Administrative Modernization
- Martin Jordan, Head of Design at DigitalService
- Ana-Maria Trăsnea, State Secretary for Engagement, Democracy Promotion and International Affairs
- Jutta Lautenschlager, Managing Director of GOVMEN GmbH
- Matthias Punz, Editorial Director Tagesspiegel Background Smart City & Administration
- Sascha Friesike, Director of the Weizenbaum-Institut for the Networked Society

And of course we’ve put together an inspiring program once again this year for you so you can get actively involved, learn, listen and discuss. Here are some examples of the sessions you can look forward to:
- A barcamp on the topic of volunteering in the digital transformation
- Workshops on topics such as service design in administration and barrier-free culture
- Presentations around the topic of artificial intelligence and its potential for sustainability in the city
