It was another event highlight in the calendar of the data industry. World of Data 2024 at Munich's Nockherberg. For each of the more than 800 participants, a top-class agenda with around 30 lectures and break-time talks, 20 exhibitors as well as a stimulating thesis arena offered the latest trends and best practices from the world of data. "The atmosphere was terrific, the topics extremely fascinating, and we were able to bring together a lot of people from the data community for a lively exchange at a really high level," concludes Sebastian Amtage, founder and managing director of b.telligent.
Discovering future topics in the data world
"For me, it is always fascinating how future topics are uncovered at WoD, some of which really go beyond the current status quo," says Klaus Blaschek, founder and managing director of b.telligent. And Klaus-Dieter Schulze, managing director of b.telligent, adds: "The fact that we are not only able to hit the nail on the head but have also been able to set new trends is again strongly reflected to us by all those attending this year."
Top-class speakers, great case studies and the popular thesis arena
This year, ProSiebenSat.1 Media, Renk, Miele and Payback, among others, gave interested listeners an insight into their data strategies, analysis tools and AI application examples. Also particularly well-received was the thesis arena in which a panel of experts responded to interesting propositions by the audience. Live and within 60 seconds, experts took a stand and thus ensured lively discussions. As one of the highlights, Stefan Mennerich, director of media & communications at FC Bayern Munich, presented a keynote speech on the record-breaking champion's digital and data strategies. In the evening, the data community continued to network at a beer garden with good food, and went on to jointly celebrate the successful World of Data until late at night – also thanks to a fantastic live band.
Next year, all data lovers will meet at WoD in Switzerland to exchange ideas, set new trends and celebrate. All current information and impressions remain accessible at www.worldofdata.com and in the WoD newsletter.
