Between 07-11 and 08-11 I was in Digital2018 invited by BVMW and the event clearly surpassed my expectations. This event is organised by Deutsche Telekom and WirtschaftsWoche Magazin in order to provide a basement where Digitalisation can take form in Germany being a great event for networking with people from digital business and companies and organisations willing to take the step to the digitalisation. 

​

The event, located in Cologne, was really well organised with load of well-known personalities in stage like Linda Zevarkis as moderator (Tagesschau), Sigmar Gabriel (Ex German Minister), Steve Wozniak (Apple founder) and Dr. Wladimir Klitschko between others. 

​

Microsoft had one of the biggests stands acting as meeting point and cost free Restaurant for the attendes, for short breaks Microsoft provided a XBOX with Red Dead Redemption 2 running on 4K. 

​

After the first day there was a Executive Dinner where attendes where located randomly fomenting networking which was a great way to get in contact with people without having to have arranged a meeting. 

​

As I know Deutsche Telekom will from now organise a serie of events with name DigitalX before the next Digital2019 which seems to be the place to be for all the community. 

​

As part of the benefits from attending the fair was a cost free membership at Wirtschaftsmagazine WIWO which allows to access all the premium content throught the App but also to download the e-magazines of the, probably, the best economic magazine in Germany. 

​

I want to serious thank BMVW (German Mittelstand) from the invitation to this great event and I recommend you to become member in this german association f you are registered in Germany as company or freelancer.

I let you below the video of the closing concert with the Black Eyed Peas presenting their brand new album and new female singer for the Digital2018 attendes. A great closing and motivation to take digitalisation futher at german companies.
