3. Sustainability Congress - 2024
Keynote
In October 2024, I had the honor of giving a keynote speech at the 3rd Sustainability Congress in Berlin, Germany. Hosted by the Berlin Institute over the course of two days, leaders and experts from German DAX companies, such as BMW, Deutsche Telekom, and DHL, as well as from SMEs and start-ups, shared their insights.

Exciting keynotes, groundbreaking presentations, and lively discussions vividly demonstrated the immense potential of sustainable solutions.

My keynote, titled "Vom Schelzen der Zeit: Gletscherfotografie als Aufruf zum Handeln," centered on the powerful role of glacier photography in illustrating climate change and the urgent need for action.
