More than 40 TechIT companies and industry experts from the DACH region and Scandinavia presented to institutional investors and other interested participants. Investors gained a focused insight into the spectrum of technology companies. In addition, key market drivers and technology trends in the subsectors were discussed in greater detail in panel discussions and expert talks. Industry experts debated "hot" topics such as GAIA X, IT security or the decarbonization of transport through target-oriented software solutions and Bitcoin.

"In view of the large number of presenting TechIT companies and the consistently positive response of the participants, we are very satisfied with the course of the conference.
