Be part of it!
After the successful start this year, we are pleased to invite you again to the BREKO Stadtwerke-Treff at Messe Frankfurt on April 1, 2025. This exclusive event is aimed specifically at municipal utilities and municipal supply companies that are active in the telecommunications sector.
Topic 2025: AI in practice
The meeting will focus on a topic that is currently affecting many companies: artificial intelligence (AI) in practice. You can look forward to practical presentations, exciting discussions and concrete ideas for your business development and day-to-day work.
In addition to the numerous opportunities that AI offers municipal utilities, we will also shed light on how it can be implemented correctly in terms of data protection and ethics. The aim is to provide you with directly implementable solutions for your individual challenges.
