For our international colleagues:
This year, we are additionally offering a technical live translation into English to ensure easy participation for all colleagues.
Please note that this is a proof of concept (POC), and automated translation may occasionally differ from the original wording.
Our goal is to test and evaluate the technical live translation to make cross-border collaboration more efficient in the future.
We kindly ask for your understanding.
