City technology intersects with urban landscape at the SCCON event
The Smart Country Convention 2025 is set to bring together municipal decision-makers and energy startups in a unique and unbureaucratic setting. The event, scheduled for September 30, 2025, from 1:30-2:30 PM at Room Gamma, Messe Berlin, aims to facilitate dialogue and collaboration between these two sectors.
The Energy Transition is forcing municipal utilities to digitize and develop new services. This shift presents a prime opportunity for energy startups, who are seeking partners with real infrastructure, data, and scaling potential. Similarly, municipal utilities are looking for such partners to help them navigate this transition smoothly.
Four energy startups will be given the opportunity to pitch their ideas to decision-makers from the municipal utility companies of Munich, Frankfurt (Oder), Karlsruhe, and Wolfsburg. However, the specific startups have not been disclosed at this time.
The municipal utilities participating in the Smart Country Convention 2025 - Munich Municipal Utilities, Frankfurt (Oder) Municipal Utilities, Karlsruhe Municipal Utilities, and Wolfsburg Municipal Utilities - are also seeking these partnerships. They are looking to overcome barriers such as cultural differences, complex procurement processes, and unclear responsibilities through collaboration with energy startups.
Cultural differences often hinder collaboration between these two sectors, making events like the Smart Country Convention 2025 crucial in fostering understanding and dialogue. The convention provides a platform for these municipal utilities to explore the opportunities presented by energy startups and potentially form new partnerships.
The application deadline for the Smart Country Convention 2025 is August 30, 2025. If you are an energy startup or a municipal decision-maker interested in this unique opportunity, be sure to apply before then. The dialogue promoted by the Smart Country Convention 2025 could be the catalyst for innovative solutions and a more sustainable future in the energy sector.
