Ext. Event: SZ Wirtschaftsgipfel 2026

Date: 9–11 November 2026
Location: Gasometer, EUREF Campus, Berlin, Germany

Themed “Sovereign in Turbulent Times”, the Süddeutsche Zeitung’s flagship economic summit marks its 20th edition this year, moving to a new home at the Gasometer on Berlin’s EUREF Campus. Over three days, leaders from politics, business and academia will take on the issues shaping Germany and Europe today, from rising energy costs and global trade uncertainty to the future of industry, technology and defence.

Speakers include Vice Chancellor and Finance Minister Lars Klingbeil, Mercedes-Benz CEO Ola Källenius and ESA Director General Josef Aschbacher, among many others.

New this year is a second stage dedicated to in-depth sessions running alongside the main program, and two evening events offer plenty of opportunity to connect.
