"Satellite-Events"

WHY TOA BERLIN

The boundaries between the worlds of startups, music and art are fading. These disciplines share a passion for creativity and collaboration. Technology is a major drive to us all. At the center of this convergence is a warm, welcoming bosom: Berlin.

We are fascinated everday by the unbound drive of young Europeans to venture off the beaten path and follow their dreams to start something on their own.

TOA Berlin aims to be a plattform where those who have not yet taken the step towards self actualization can be inspired by those who have and those who just started can learn from those who are further ahead. On the first day, there will be a kick-ass open air location and the second day is open to satellite events all over town organized by the community.

Come spend two days with us, be inspired and recharge your batteries!

A pinch of SXSW, a pint (or more) of Berlin. Bold. Edgy. Artsy. Guerrilla.

On a Shoestring.

WHAT TO EXPECT

On the first day we all meet at the awesome open air central location for an intense day of conversations and workshops. Connect with your peers, be inspired and learn from each other. There will be interactive talks, workshops, special user group meet-ups, music, art and so much more.

The second day will be spread all over Berlin. Everyone can host a satellite event to exchange knowledge, connect with their users or showcase their art and music. Many startups are already working on their satellite events and we are excited to find out what the community will come up with. From open office days to API presentations, BBQs and rocking parties: We are confident that there will be lots of memorable moments of learning, networking and pure fun!

We hope these two days combined create meaningful relationships with people across various fields, countries and disciplines. Who knows, perhaps you end up partnering with someone you meet here or join a startup to change the world.

THE CENTRAL LOCATION

Kater Holzig by Night

Kater Holzig - Indoor 1

Kater Holzig - Indoor 2

On the first day of the festival we will offer a cool, Berlin style location where startups, artists and musicians can share stories and knowledge in an informal, open-air setting. For that we will rent the whole Kater Holzig: a former soap factory, Berlin Neverland and soon-to-be playground for TOA Berlin.

Trust us: that space is absolutely magical, nothing you have ever seen before.

To give you an idea: The founders of Kater Holzig previously owned the world-renowned Bar25 (how many bars get made into a movie?). With Kater Holzig they even stepped it up a notch!
