The evening will be hosted by Jessy Wellmer, presenter of the Tagesthemen programme.

Where culture and business co-operate as equals, not only innovative projects are created, but also spaces in which democratic values are conveyed and lived.

Experience an exciting discussion about the transformative power of business and culture. The panel will shed light on how business and culture work together to drive social progress and which innovative approaches play a role in this.

Among other things, the panel will discuss

  • The opportunities and challenges of digitalisation
  • Innovation and culture as the basis for the development of business locations
  • Solutions for the shortage of skilled labour
  • The role of culture - as a space for debate, identity creator and corrective
  • Importance of shared values such as diversity, participation, tolerance and respect as the basis for social change

Understanding and cohesion are essential in order to have an impact. Business and culture play a central role in social change. Innovation opens up new ways of communication and cultural exchange, enabling us to strengthen democratic values together and communicate them on an international scale.
