A record number of participants, hands-on projects and an exciting and forward-looking topic – the ITS World Congress was in Hamburg!

As one of the first major business events, which took place in the city since Hamburg State eased regulations on 1 July, The Show combines an exhibition over 20 premium jewellery manufacturers from Europe along with expert talks, catwalk shows and networking events. It was open to trade visitors (dealers) and the general public attracting around 200 attendees across each of its four days. Passenger ships along Hamburg’s River Elbe hosted 200 people for a series of nautical networking events.

It’s best to begin a new year with a new set of exciting outlooks. That’s why today we – Karin, Florian, and Saskia – are inviting you on a tour of the high-contrast port of Hamburg with a heartfelt “Ahoy 2020!”

This September journalists, editors and publishers from around the world gathered in Germany’s second largest city for two major industry events. The INMA Media Innovation Week and the Global Investigative Journalism Conference were attracting nearly 2,000 delegates – further cementing the city’s reputation as a media hub for the industry.
