Smart living, smart grids, smart traffic, smart cities, health, education, broadband, intelligent traffic management, electromobility and open data are the main topics under the spotlight on this day of the conference.

Sustainable energy supply, intelligent traffic management, and the mobility of people and goods are just some of the challenges business and politics will face in the future. Given the progression of climate change and the increasing scarcity of resources, it's essential to identify a completely new set of solutions. Innovative ICT technologies offer one way of giving a much-needed boost to climate protection and resource efficiency. IT and telecommunications are used to network all the various systems and markets, including traffic, energy, domestic requirements and production. So, what shape are emerging paradigms taking on? What new opportunities and business models might they offer? What kind of ideas and solutions can we expect? And just how safe and reliable is this new “smart” world?

Cloud computing, cloud storage, cloud processes, data, privacy, mobility, convergence, real-time content and online behavior advertising are the main topics under the spotlight on this day of the conference.

With the demand for information more relentless than ever, companies need simple, cost-effective ways to access data and applications. This is where cloud computing comes in. However, the real value of data lies not in its quantity, but in using it intelligently. Although companies initially used cloud applications for primarily internal purposes, they are now often used to support the interaction between companies, partners and customers. Data and the information it carries are seen as the new currency of the 21st century. But is the endless potential of keeping our data in the clouds a blessing or a curse? What are the opportunities and risks involved?

Content, mobility, entertainment, web TV, home entertainment, intelligent home networking, mobile TV, augmented reality and connected TV are the main topics under the spotlight on this day of the conference.

In the wake of the comprehensive networking of our working environments, intelligent home networks now mean the Internet is playing an increasingly important role in our private lives, too. It will soon become commonplace for us to use mobile devices and online networks to manage not only our private lives in general, but also the homes we live in. All this will mean improved quality of life, lower energy consumption and increased safety and security. So what shape will our home lives have in the third decade of the 21st century? And what changes will television undergo as the defining entertainment technology of the 20th century, now that it is forced to compete with the Internet?

Social commerce, social business, ubiquitous computing, semantic web, privacy and security, social CRM, social crowdsourcing, monetizing and social care are the main topics under the spotlight on this day of the conference.

Social media is now firmly established in major companies and has left the experimental phase far behind it. Today, much of the communication undertaken by companies is done via a wide range of social media channels. Nevertheless, for many companies initial enthusiasm for "being part of the action" has now given way to the challenge of how to integrate social media into business processes and business models. In addition to a lack of experience, what's often missing is a convincing strategy. Is it possible to monetize social media? Can social media really be transformed into "social business"?
