Creative Transformation Summit 2026

More turnover. More efficient results. More satisfied customers.

Because earnings, experiences and efficiency are becoming increasingly important right now.

At the digital Creative Transformation Summit 2026, you will therefore receive practical tips and clear instructions from creative experts for more success in your company. A summit specially tailored for SMEs & EPUs from the trades, services, production, trade and tourism sectors.

Your day-to-day business is complex – and so are your challenges.

Many small and medium-sized companies are faced with similar questions:

  • Customers are consuming cautiously.
  • Time and personnel are scarce.
  • Is AI also becoming more and more of an issue in your industry?
  • Sustainability is becoming a differentiating factor in customer decisions.
  • Competition is increasing and yet the quality must be right.

What we need now are not big strategy papers.
But clear steps that work in real day-to-day business.

This is exactly what #CTS26 is all about.
