#1 Talk
Christian Ehl - CTO from ShareYourSpace GmbH

Boosting flexibility + sustainability through office sharing
There is an unmet demand for flexible workspaces. The Corona crisis and its impacts will significantly increase that demand. But the office market today is all about rigid, long-term obligations. The solution: Using the millions of existing sqm office space in a more efficient way. This space is not fully used: Either because it is vacant or just because no one needs a desk 24/7. Sharing these temporarily empty spaces is the missing link that maximizes flexibility in the office world, increases space profitability and boosts sustainability in a very big, unsustainable industry.

#2 Talk
Oliver Schmitt - Senior Manager Ausbau B2B from M-net Telekommunikations GmbH

The smarter the city, the more data is exchanged between its different entities. This increase in data volume requires strong telecommunication networks. Oliver will share insights into the broadband technology that forms the physical basis for smart city applications.
