If so, we’d like to invite you to take part in our premier networking event for business, data and creative innovators in Berlin.

Talent Meets Bertelsmann (TMB) is your opportunity to establish valuable connections with media and management experts from a multinational corporation, as well as students from all over Europe. Throughout the event, you’ll be meeting outstanding individuals and gain unique insights into one of the largest media companies in the world.

This unique international networking event for AI enthusiasts will take place in Berlin from June 16 to 18, 2025.

At this three-day student ideas lab, you will:

• Work closely with experienced Bertelsmann intrapreneurs.
• Develop innovative ideas within an interdisciplinary team.
• Present your ideas to a jury of Board members.

A virtual kick-off will take place on June 2, 2025 from 5:30 PM to 7:00 PM CEST. Participation is not mandatory; however, we highly recommend that you join the event to get to know the people with whom you will be spending three days in Berlin.
