Burda’s international invite-only innovation conference DLD (Digital, Life, Design) calls for courage, commitment, and curiosity. Under the motto “Dare to Know,” DLD founder Steffi Czerny will welcome around 200 international speakers to DLD Munich 24 at the House of Communication in Munich from 11 to 13 January.
As usual, DLD will focus on the hottest trends and global developments. New business models in AI/machine learning, quantum, Web3, robotics, spatial computing, and biotechnology will be part of the range of topics, as will new developments in energy, media, healthcare, software development, semiconductors, and telecommunications. But DLD’s agenda will also include the broader social and geopolitical implications – in discussions with experts and decision-makers from education and politics, philosophers, scientists, climate activists, artists, and musicians.
Speakers confirmed so far include AI scientist and author Gary Marcus, energy investor Bill Gross, CEO of developer platform GitHub, Thomas Dohmke, co-founder of defense tech start-up Helsing, Gundbert Scherf, Member of the European Parliament and rapporteur for the European AI Act, Eva Maydell, SAP board member Thomas Saueressig, IBM EMEA General Manager Ana Paula Assis, robotics and AI expert Greg Ameyugo from the French Atomic Energy Agency CEA, transformation researcher Maja Göpel, philosopher Markus Gabriel, education expert Esther Wojcicki and musician Holly Herndon.
Fintech Istanbul’s Germany representative, S. Elif Kocaoglu Ulbrich, will attend DLD to take the pulse of the event and report on the latest trends in the tech world. Let Elif know if you’d like to meet in person in Munich and share your predictions for 2024 with the world via Fintech Istanbul!

“From the beginning, DLD has shone a light on how our world is changing as technology advances. We have shown great expertise in identifying disruptive issues and outstanding, often unknown, experts at an early stage. Now, we must adapt ourselves, our business, and our lives to the new AI reality, which promises many new opportunities but also poses challenges. That’s why we need to embrace this reality NOW – through dialogue, discussion, shared learning and engagement. This is the only way we will remain capable of action. DLD is the perfect platform for this.”
Steffi Czerny, DLD Curator
