Everyone is an expert in something. Share your experience and learn from others.

Connect Over Lunch

We believe the best ideas emerge from organic conversations. That's why we've built in extended 1.5-hour lunch breaks both days. Please note: We don't serve lunch (only basic refreshments like water, tea, and coffee are provided). This gives you the freedom to explore Berlin's vibrant food scene with fellow practitioners, continue morning discussions over coffee, or organize impromptu coding sessions at nearby cafés. The area around Humboldt University offers countless dining options where deeper connections and insights naturally unfold.
