“Zeit für Innovation” Conference on November 15, 2023

On November 15, 2023, the conference “Zeit für Innovation” (Time for Innovation) and the presentation of the IDEENSTARK Award 2023 will take place at the Im Wizemann in Stuttgart.

The conference is dedicated to the topics of time and innovation. One doesn’t work without the other: Every innovation requires time, and our time demands innovations. Keynote speakers and (creative) companies are invited to present and discuss new possibilities for increasing innovation and exploring time models in the future workplace through impulse lectures and interactive sessions. Additionally, various thematic sessions provide the opportunity for active exchange and exploration.

In the evening, the event is followed by the IDEENSTARK award ceremony. The program will be moderated by Kimsy von Reischach with musical support from DJ 5ter Ton (Massive Töne).

Participation in the event is free of charge. Further information and registration for the conference and/or award ceremony can be found at mfg.de/zukunftskonferenz.
