In the organizer's words:

A slam of innovations

TechTalk 28/4 - current technologies in dialog

Some are just founding their first company, others have already achieved commercial success. On this evening, eight founders from Munich will each present their innovative ideas and business plans in six minutes: a kaleidoscope of forward-looking entrepreneurship. You can then discuss with the entrepreneurs of your choice at themed tables. Prof. Dr. Rafaela Kraus, Professor of Corporate and Human Resources Management at the University of the Federal Armed Forces Munich, will also contribute her expertise. What do young founders need and how can we support them?

What does TechTalk 28/4 offer?

Technology and innovation can bring prosperity and solve social problems. But how are competitive companies created from basic research? What unexpected challenges do new technologies present us with? The TechTalk series creates a forum for all Munich residents to engage in debates about technology and society with experts from science and industry. A series of events organized by acatech (German Academy of Science and Engineering), Mediengruppe Münchner Merkur/tz and Münchner Volkshochschule.
