Core idea
The participants build the agenda
Open.Space is not built around a finished speaker line-up. The program is formed by the people in the room and the real business challenges they bring with them.

About the conference
Participants set the agenda.
Open.Space Berlin 2026 is a three-day conference where participants shape the program around the business questions, decisions, and opportunities they are actually facing right now.
What happens in the room
Business pressure replaces stage performance
Instead of listening to polished talks, participants discuss investment opportunities, business strategies, and live case studies in smaller circles where practical solutions can actually emerge.
Why it matters
A conference that works like a working session
This format is built for people who prefer clarity over performance and want conversations that move from abstract ideas into decisions, structure, and action.
What participants do
The Open.Space working format
Shape the agenda themselves
Participants form the program around the issues that are most relevant to them right now.
Discuss investment opportunities
Business and investment topics are explored in a room designed for honest, useful exchange.
Work through case studies in small groups
Instead of staying broad and theoretical, participants break down concrete cases together.
Help each other find solutions
The format is built around mutual support, practical insight, and shared problem-solving.

Important
Participant-led formatCome with a real question
Open.Space works best when participants arrive with live business themes, open cases, and the willingness to contribute to other people's thinking as well.
Format
No fixed agenda
The experience depends on the topics, questions, and cases participants are ready to bring into the room.
Mindset
Come ready to contribute
This is not a passive conference. It works best when people are willing to share context and help others think.
