We are happy to announce that dfv Media Group is to partner with NEXT Berlin this year! The conference, which will take place in Berlin on May 5-6, has been organised by the digital agency SinnerSchrader since 2006. Holger Knapp, Chief Executive of dfv Media Group states “SinnerSchrader has made NEXT Berlin into one of Europe’s most important agenda-setting events in the digital economy. Together we are looking forward to further strengthening this conference and to address new target groups.”

With specialist media titles such as ‘HORIZONT’, ‘TextilWirtschaft’ and ‘Lebensmittel Zeitung’, dfv Media Group reaches those business decision-makers whose success is determined in large part by the impact of digital developments.

“The digital world is the new normal. It is dramatically shifting the ways in which firms interact with their customers,“ says NEXT founder Matthias Schrader, Chief Executive of SinnerSchrader. “At NEXT we’ll be providing answers as to how, regarding their products, communications and sales, companies need to change strategically to ensure sustained success in the new digital normal.”

At NEXT14 we’ll be expecting around 1,800 delegates in the Berliner Congress Center (bcc) who will draw inspiration from internationally renowned entrepreneurs and leading figures in marketing trends and technological innovation. At the forefront of the presentations and panel discussions will be the evolution of the car and the revolution in payment systems, mobile, wearable and invisible interfaces, the new Internet of Things, managing Big Data and how digitalisation is transforming companies.

Among the speakers will be one of the leading experts on digital currencies, Jon Matonis of Bitcoin; bestselling author Cory Doctorow; Dirk Slama of Bosch Software Innovations, and Internet icon Brad Templeton (Singularity University), who was recently involved in the development of Google’s self-driving car.
