Stifterverband für die Deutsche Wissenschaft
Summit for Research and Innovation
Top Innovation Convention Connecting Science, Business, and Politics
For over 10 years, we have organized the annual Research Summit in close collaboration with the Stifterverband, establishing it as the premier convention for experts and decision-makers in the innovation sector. The format brings together top-level professionals from science, research, business, and politics, fostering knowledge exchange and strengthening Germany’s position as a future-proof economic hub.
The Top Innovation Event is one of Germany’s most important platforms for dialogue among science, research, industry, and politics. Its goal is to facilitate discussions on current topics in research and innovation policy through live and hybrid formats, promote networking among top-level participants, and secure Germany’s future viability as an innovative economic location.
With 400–600 high-ranking guests from various sectors, the event offers a unique opportunity to share knowledge, showcase innovations, and initiate sustainable collaborations. Our full-service approach includes program planning, budget and vendor coordination, space and furniture concepts, technical implementation, logistics, and on-site event management. Whether live, hybrid, or digital — we ensure a smooth process that inspires participants and enhances Germany’s innovative strength.
Through this framework, we have not only demonstrated our implementation expertise but also further developed our format expertise for top-tier innovation events with VIPs from politics, industry, and research.
