The Rendezvous – Cologne Agency Club – April 18th, 2024
On April 18th, 2024, it’s that time again: The Cologne Agency Club opens its doors. This time we are guests at Sturmfreie Bude – high above the roofs of Cologne. In a relaxed atmosphere and with a breathtaking view of the cathedral, we want to focus on a topic that is personally important to us:
Communication & Inclusion – “Participation and Accessibility as Cornerstones of Inclusive Communication.”
Our central concern is to develop a deeper understanding of how essential inclusive communication is in advertising and corporate communication to ensure that all people, especially those with disabilities, feel seen and valued.
The Setup:
The Rendezvous is a moderated networking format that focuses on a specific theme. Well-known industry representatives will give appropriate keynote speeches at the beginning of the event on the respective theme and have the opportunity to introduce themselves and their companies. After the shared exchange and discussion based on the keynote speeches, the theme can be further explored individually during the rest of the evening. The evening concludes with open networking among participants.
We would be delighted to invite you to this event.
Date: Thursday, April 18th, 2024
Time: 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM
Location: AI Village, An der Hasenkaule 10, 50354 Hürth, Germany
