Next09 Conference in Hamburg
May 5, 2009
On May 5 & 6 the next conference is taking place at Kampnagel in Hamburg. Organised by SinnerSchrader, the next conference is one of the most important networking and trend conferences within the European web industry.
We’re expecting a hundred international speakers and more than 1500 participants, amongst them will be marketing decision makers of the media, technology and advertising sector, agencies, service providers and start-ups. It is the only conference that unites the Internet community with brands and leading companies. To learn about our success story, check out the websites of next06, next07 and next08.
Share Economy is this year’s theme of next09. This term is shaped by the economy theorist Martin Weitzman. His basic idea: The more we share our success with others, the more we profit ourselves. This applies to humans as well as brands. An outline of the topic and further information can be found in a brief summary of Share Economy.
This is a well developed conference with an interesting focus & theme. And, it is bringing in some well-known US startup people along with attendees and panelists from all over the world. I’m sitting across from Chris Heuer (founder of Social Media Club) and have run into Brian Solis, Stowe Boyd, tons of European startups, VC’s, agencies and major brands.
On Wednesday I’ll be live-blogging during the Rising Sun Startup Rally - 19 companies that will rock the web in 2009. Check out the finalists and stay tuned for more.
