“Hello Future. Hello Transformation.” This is the future-orientated motto of the EUROBIKE 2024 conference program.
The EUROBIKE 2024 program focuses on transformation in the industry. And situates this in an international and macro-social context. We deal with how to actively shape the mobility revolution and bring it to the streets in a sustainable manner. We take a long, hard look at the bike ecosystem and the bike business with EU regulations, data, facts and figures and innovative solutions to the urgent challenges of our industry and our times. The conference program combines practical ideas and visionary thinking, big ideas and small steps.
The future-orientated programme of the conferences provides an opportunity to discuss and explore opportunities for transformation within the industry over four days of talks. In close cooperation with bike industry umbrella organizations (ZIV, Zukunft Fahrrad, VSF, CONEBI, CIE) and Bundesverband Digitale Wirtschaft (BVDW) we have curated a program that addresses the needs of the entire bike ecosystem and sets the direction for necessary future change. At the same time, there’s also a focus on communicative reach and political and social impact at a regional, national and international level.
Six topic tracks in particular define the conferences. These topics are constantly played out in a triad of knowledge transfer, exchange formats and networking events as part of the conference program: Innovation, Digitalization, Sustainability, Inspiration, Retail and People.

The Topic Tracks in detail
Innovation Track
Innovation is key. The industry has mastered the shift to electrification with aplomb. But especially in the age of efficiency, technological innovations are essential for new business models. This results in innovative products, services and bright prospects for the future - Eurobike sets the stage for these innovations.
Digitalization Track
Digital services and business models will determine the future of the sector. However, processes in companies, industry, specialist retailers and the entire ecosystem are also being digitalized and thus made more efficient. Data streams are compared and new insights are aggregated from them.
Sustainability Track
Sustainability is viewed holistically at the Business Days conferences and can be found in all topics. However, sustainability is the common narrative, particularly with regard to the design of socially and climate-friendly mobility, production, materials, supply chains and recycling, as well as diversity.
Inspiration Track
The mobility transition also needs a change in people's minds. How can new user groups be convinced to use bicycles as a means of transportation? Whether cargo bikes in logistics or the last mile. Get inspired! Through good stories, innovative products and services or best practices from other sectors.
Retail Track
Specialty retail in its various forms is a key player in the industry. From the boutique business to the large eCommerce player. Together, we look at the intersections, opportunities in the business model and necessary transformative steps.
People Track
The industry is exciting for young talents, both in terms of its transformation and its content. However, the shortage of skilled labour is particularly acute in the skilled trades sector. How can we make the industry even more attractive, open it up to diverse and varied perspectives and thus ensure participation? In this track, we focus on the people in the industry and the customer experience.
