What is Zukunftstag Mittelstand?
Zukunftstag Mittelstand 2025 is a truly outstanding event. In addition to shining a spotlight on the German Mittelstand, this year’s event will mark a special milestone, as the BVMW – the national association for the German Mittelstand – turns 50! This milestone marks five decades of the BVMW’s commitment to the interests of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Germany.
We have curated an impressive programme for Zukunftstag Mittelstand 2025, including high-calibre speakers from the worlds of business and politics, who will provide valuable insights and practical guidance for enterprises. Inspiring keynotes and discussions will shed light on trends set to shape the future of the German Mittelstand, opening the door to new prospects.
However, Zukunftstag Mittelstand is more than just a stage – it also provides an unique networking opportunity. Exclusive lounges and forums will enable participants to engage with like-minded entrepreneurs and key decision-makers, forging new business relationships in a sophisticated setting with first-class catering.
The next edition of Zukunftstag Mittelstand will take place on 9 April 2025. From 9:00am to 7:30pm (doors open at 8:30am), you can experience a day filled with fascinating discussions, inspiring information and high-quality networking.
From 8:00pm to 11:00pm, guests with a valid ticket can also attend our evening function.
