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
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.
Core idea
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.
What happens in the room
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
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
Participants form the program around the issues that are most relevant to them right now.
Business and investment topics are explored in a room designed for honest, useful exchange.
Instead of staying broad and theoretical, participants break down concrete cases together.
The format is built around mutual support, practical insight, and shared problem-solving.

Important
Participant-led formatOpen.Space works best when participants arrive with live business themes, open cases, and the willingness to contribute to other people's thinking as well.
The experience depends on the topics, questions, and cases participants are ready to bring into the room.
This is not a passive conference. It works best when people are willing to share context and help others think.
If you want a team or partner pass, it is best to coordinate with BER-LINK before the room fills up.
Final step
A participant-led conference becomes stronger when the right people are in it from the start with real questions, cases, and working energy.
