Networking Night in Frankfurt city center - unexpected connections, new perspectives
Immerse yourself in a special networking night right in the heart of Frankfurt, at Massif Central. We build bridges between people who would otherwise never meet. In a relaxed atmosphere, a wide variety of players from the bicycle and ecomobility industry, start-ups, established companies, athletes and industry fans come together to discover new perspectives and have inspiring conversations.
This event offers a unique opportunity to make unconventional contacts away from the hustle and bustle of the trade fair and discover surprising synergies. Whether you are looking for ideas for new projects, want to meet like-minded people or simply want to think outside the box - we offer the space to do so.
Accompanied by relaxed music, culinary highlights and the urban backdrop of Frankfurt, we create an atmosphere in which real connections can be made. Because sometimes it's the encounters with the most unexpected people that provide the most valuable impulses. That's why we invite you to network at our top-class themed tables every year.
"Cycling has an enormous, social, cultural, and economic impact. Lets all work together to elevate and protect this global treasure!”
