What started as a relatively small blogger get-together in Berlin, has developed over the past few years to become a key annual event for the digital avant-garde


This year, as a partner of re:publica, Deutsche Bank will be on site again running various activities and sessions.

Now in its tenth year, the conference will be covering all kinds of internet-related topics under the motto 'TEN is NET' - from Virtual Reality, to Big Data, to Blockchain applications. Over three days, visitors will be able to interact with over 700 speakers at meet-ups, sessions, talks and fireside chats.

Deutsche Bank sessions on 'Big Data' and 'Social Impact'

At the first Deutsche Bank session onMonday, May 2, 1.30 - 2.30 pm, we'll be looking at huge amounts of information - Big Data. How can Big Data be used by institutions to innovate?JP Rangaswami, Chief Data Officer at Deutsche Bank and long-time chronicler of the digital transformation, will share his views on this topic.

For those, who cannot join the session in Berlin, it will also be available vialive stream.

In our second session onWednesday, May 4, 1:45 - 2:45 pm,Norbert KunzofSocial Impact,Nadia Boegli,The Changer, andNicolas Ritouet, Co-Founder ofCodeDoor, will be asking the questions: How can social start-ups contribute to the integration of refugees? How can good ideas be scaled up - and what should entrepreneurs keep in mind if they want to be active in this field? Deutsche Bank has been involved in this area for many years, providing coaching and mentors for social entrepreneurs. In light of current events, an impact fund was recently set up to help social start-up founders who contribute to refugee integration.
