Our #IMM2021 finish line
On October 18th we take stock for the 6th time
+++
On Monday, October 18th, 2021, our 6th Best of Industry meets Makers event will take place, the annual highlight of our programme, traditionally scheduled on the first evening of the Digital Days organised by the DigitalCity.Wien initiative. Once again, the industry representatives and makers who have actively participated in this round will share what they have experienced, learned and achieved together during the previous 6 months of the collaborative Industry meets Makers development process, what has worked and what has not, what is needed for the success of the cooperation between such different cultures and worlds and how it will continue afterwards.
The event will be accessible via 2 online platforms in parallel - on the one hand via the B2Match platform, through which the entire programme of the Digital Days will be handled (German only), and on the other hand via a Zoom video conference, in which one can also follow the programme in English with the help of synchronous interpreters and talk to the speakers and other participants afterwards.
All members of our open innovation community – makers, industry representatives, network partners, supporters and multipliers – as well as all other people interested in our projects and topics are cordially invited to join us at our grand finale.
Do you want to be part of it? Then register for it right now!
