COLOGNE talks is a talk show where we come together in a living room atmosphere to talk about topics that we've been struggling with: Why isn't anyone talking about this?


The philosophy of COLOGNE talks
It all started with the question: "Why doesn't anyone talk about it?".
Because we live in a time when people talk a lot - but rarely to each other.
Where bubbles divide instead of connect.
Where conversations often turn into debates and fronts harden.

We believe it's time we listened more again. To understand more.
And, above all, to ask questions more often. Not to agree with each other. But to create exchange where opinions differ.

That's why we bring people on stage who answer this question in very different ways - from the reality of their lives, with their story, from their attitude. We always invite two speakers to our stage to share their experiences, expertise and perspectives on the selected topic of the evening in a talk. We sit back and listen. At the end of the evening, we move on to an open panel and you, the audience, are cordially invited to participate interactively.

The founders Shirin Moana and Lotte Backwinkel will moderate the evening.
