New Liquidrome – hotspot for knowledge transfer and networking

Numerous start-ups will also be showcasing new solutions and answering questions from the audience during start-up pitches.
The offerings in Liquidrome focus on the key topics of Circularity & Resource Management, Data2Value, and Lifestyle & Health.
“Here on our large Wave Stage, we have a diverse programme that includes macro trends, AI solutions, and numerous ideas for resource-efficient production,” emphasises Markus Kosak, executive director of the drinktec cluster.
Furthermore, the Deep Dive Lounge in the Liquidrome will complement the programme and offer ample space for face-to-face networking.
“We also see strong potential in the functional beverages sector which is why we have integrated a health bar into the Liquidrome, where selected partners will offer tastings of innovative beverages,” says Kosak.
