About us

Industry meets Academia

MMK is an active network that fosters exchange between industry and academia through innovative formats throughout the year. Sovereignty does not arise on its own—it requires networks, the courage to act, and an ecosystem that connects theory with practice.

Courageous Minds and Strategies for the Future

Founded over 30 years ago by Prof. Dr. Horst Wildemann, MMK is now a permanent fixture at TUM, the University of Excellence. This is where board members, founders, students and researchers come together to work on the big questions of the future. With our foundation advisory board consisting of BMW, E.ON, GEA and TÜV SÜD as well as other strong partners from industry, MMK thrives on real practical relevance and long-standing relationships with industry. The participants meet regularly - whether in the exclusive setting of the MMK Bar Talks or in the lecture halls of the TUM.

The highlight is the annual colloquium in March: for two days, around 100 speakers and 1,500 participants engage in discussions on two stages, in interactive workshops, at numerous innovation stands and in a campus atmosphere.

We look forward to seeing you!

Our Formats

The MMK26 brings together decision-makers from business, science and politics for two days full of inspiration, controversial discussions and visionary ideas on transformation, innovation and responsibility in times of change.

Over 30 speakers and 500 experts from the worlds of tech, digital and AI will come together at the innovation hub in Heilbronn for interactive formats such as reverse panels, micro-debates, and masterclasses that promote exchange, learning and inspiration.

This is where speakers, partners, and participants meet in a relaxed atmosphere - for personal discussions, new perspectives and genuine exchange away from the stage. An evening full of inspiration, networking, and good conversation.
