Exciting topics for everyone at the Digital Summit BW - from IT security to social innovation, disruption in SMEs, crafts and the cultural and creative industries and expertise on internationalization
You think Baden-Württemberg is only strong in the automotive industry? Far from it! The state has an excellent reputation worldwide as a high-tech, industrial and service location. But in order to secure and further expand this top position, work must continue on the future viability of the business location.
What is currently driving companies and which business models will be more important than ever in the future?
Talk to our top speakers:
How well is your company positioned in terms of IT security? And what should you do if the worst comes to the worst? Cybercrime is now an industry in its own right with a turnover of 1.5 trillion US dollars, making it a serious threat. Our four experts present support services and inform you about preventive measures to ensure that your systems remain secure:
Baden-Württemberg is the state of SMEs. As an economic engine and guarantor of employment and growth, SMEs must remain fit for the future and competitive - innovative digital solutions are a significant factor here in international competition. Our experts provide exciting insights:
The great ideas from SMEs and corporations have to get into people's heads. And every idea is only as good as you can sell it to the people. And how? With great marketing concepts, new ideas and great images. With a turnover of around 27 billion euros (2019), the cultural and creative industries in Baden-Württemberg are a real driving force (source: study commissioned by the Ministry of Economics BW). Get to know four people who are passionate about transforming the industry.
Digitization is not stopping at traditional industries: traditional craft businesses and small companies are in no way inferior to large corporations with innovative ideas and creative solutions. As early as 2020, every second craft business will be using digital technologies, and the trend is rising. Meet our speakers who are changing their industry with their business models:
Well over half of the capital goods manufactured in mechanical engineering, vehicle construction and electrical engineering are sold abroad: Mechanical engineering: 63 percent, vehicle manufacturing: 75 percent, electrical engineering: 59 percent (data source: National Accounts of the Federal States, 2022). How can Baden-Württemberg companies make themselves fit for the global market and what support can they count on? Our three experts are available to talk about internationalization:
Technology alone cannot solve all problems. This is where social innovation comes in: It pursues the goal of responding to negative consequential effects of technological change - such as automation - in such a way that social welfare is also secured in the future. Our experts believe that technological and social innovation must go hand in hand in shaping our future:
