Tech Open Air

I always wanted to interview a designer to get a hint of what it is like to be thinking holistically to produce aesthetic design that make a lasting impression. Luckily for me in my network I have someone who pointed out that I needed to look no further than Stephen Gates and was strongly suggested that I contacted him at earliest convenience to set up an interview. And against all expectations this is what I did!In contacting Stephen Gates, I was far from thinking that I will be in for a treat! Imagine being able to interview an international keynote speaker who spoke to large international keynotes at SXSW, HOW Design Live, Awwwards, Pausefest, FUSE, Tech Open Air, Fifteen Seconds Festival and more alongside speakers like Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, Nest founder Tony Fadell, Martha Stewart, Zappos.com CEO Tony Hsieh, and John Maeda. A man of many talents, the producer and the host of the Crazy One podcast which I invite you all to listen because on top of being very entertaining it is very instructive.As always click this link to enjoy the conversation.

Tausendsassa Niko Woischnik hat in seinem Leben bereits viel erlebt. Und viel gegründet. Unter anderem den erfolgreichen Coworking-Space Ahoy! Berlin und die PR-Agentur Openers. Sein wichtigstes Projekt bleibt aber natürlich die TOA (Kurzform für Tech OpenAir). Die Berliner Konferenz zählt seit Jahren zu den führenden Technologiefestivals in Europas und hat sogar Ableger in Mexiko, USA und Japan. Doch seit Corona ist vieles anders. Im Gespräch mit Startup Insider umreißt Niko seine Vision für die Zukunft der Eventbranche, erklärt mögliche Digitalkonzepte und wie Networking in Zukunft aussehen könnte. Hierzu liefert auch Alexander Wolf eine interessante Perspektive. Der Kopf hinter der Netzwerkreihe “AusserGewöhnlich Berlin” entwickelt gemeinsam mit einem Berliner Startup eine zukunftsweisende VR-Technologie für Seminare und liefert den Beweis, dass die Coronakrise auch Chancen birgt.

At the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, the Tech Open Air in Berlin, and the IAA in Frankfurt, Mercedes-Benz presented a white CLA coupe in which visitors could sit and play the video game SuperTuxKart. But: What’s that supposed to be? Gaming inside a car? Have the people at Daimler lost their minds? We set out to investigate the story behind this “gaming-mobile.” And we found out: This car is more than just a clever gag.

Es stand auf dem Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, beim Tech Open Air in Berlin und auch auf der IAA in Frankfurt: Ein weißes Mercedes-Benz CLA Coupé, in dessen Innenraum die Messebesucher das Videospiel SuperTuxKart spielen. Zocken im Auto – spinnen die jetzt bei Daimler? Wir haben uns auf die Suche nach der Geschichte hinter dem Gaming-Mobil gemacht. Und herausgefunden: Das Fahrzeug ist weit mehr als nur ein netter Gag.

Diesmal treffen wir uns mit Nikolas Woischnik. Er ist Gründer des Tech Open Airs - ein Festival, das die Verbindung zwischen Technologie, Musik, Kunst und Wissenschaft herstellt und Start-Ups mit etablierten Unternehmen zusammenbringt. Bevor das Tech Open Air entstand, hat Niko auch schon einige andere Unternehmen hochgezogen: den ersten englischsprachigen Berliner Blog, ein riesiges Coworking Space und eine Agentur. Er sagt, dass es beim Gründen vor allem darauf ankommt, seiner Leidenschaft zu folgen. Wie man Leidenschaft dabei aber auf verschiedene Arten definieren kann, verrät er uns im Podcast. Wir haben mit Niko über sein erstes Start Up “Ahoy Berlin” gesprochen und was er dort gelernt hat, über die Tools und Programme, die er nutzt, um sich den Arbeitsalltag zu erleichtern und außerdem hat er uns verraten, an welchen Stellen er beim Tech Open Air am meisten Muskelkater bekommt und warum er ein paar Wochen vorm Festival beginnt, Bandanas im Büro zu tragen.

And I know it may sound crazy but if you have to figure it out on the spot this is where you would make the best decision because there will always be things that prevent you from starting. You will always think that you are not ready or that the market is not right or that person or your parents don't want to you to do it or it is not the right time. So just getting started and not really having a plan B without putting your life at risk is the best way to make things happen. Because when you are in this flow were you really have to do something, when it's almost a question of life and death… not because it's cool or it's an option but this is the only option. This is where you really really really out how to do things and the quickest way to get your results. So putting yourself in this difficult situation I think is very difficult but I think also really a quick way to get something started”…[Listen for More] Click Here for Show Notes To Listen or to Get the Show Notes go to https://wp.me/p6Tf4b-6KH

There's a high chance that if you have attended an event in a city in recent years, it was arranged through meetup.com. The site now has over 32 million members, over a quarter of a million meetup groups and over half a million meetups happening in 182 countries every month. Aside from being a keen and regular user, meetup has always fascinated me, as it's a tech company with a core mission that is about getting people away from their technology and to in-person meetings with like-minded people. It's a service that creates so many positive outcomes, yet so many users focus on the negatives of the platform. And as one attendee of a meetup organizers meetup in Berlin put it, "you're a service where those who do all the work have to pay". After his talk about "the future in 2027" at Berlin's Tech Open Air event, I sat down with the founder, Scott Heiferman to dig into the past, present and future of meeting people. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/theweeklysqueak/message

Julia Reda ist Abgeordnete der Piraten im EU Parlament in Brüssel mit Schwerpunkt Digitales und Urheberrecht. Zur Zeit wird dort ein neues Urheberrecht verhandelt, dass wenn es in der jetzigen Form verabschiedet wird das Internet wie wir es kennen zerstören könnte. Warum das so ist, erklärt Julia in dieser Episode, die wir spontan über das Internet aufgenommen haben. Ich war in Berlin auf dem Tech Open Air und Julia in ihrem Büro in Brüssel. Besonders spannend fand ich Julias Aussage, dass die Politik durchaus an einem regen Austausch interessiert ist, aber viel zu viele Leute ohne vorherige Diskussion in sozialen Medien immer sofort beleidigend werden.
