STARTUPNIGHT (SUN) has been part of the startup ecosystem in Berlin, Germany and Europe for 10 years now – so it's time for SUN X!
SUN has been highlighting the innovation potential of startups and supporting the ecosystem from day one with interest-based matchmaking and interaction between startups, corporates & investors.
For our anniversary, we have chosen a bold approach and present the SUN X – Digital Week from September 7 to Sept 10! SUN X has the goal to provide insights in different domains, on how the world is changing. With talks, discussions, workshops, exhibitions of startups SUN X will touch the most relevant areas in digitization from the corporate and startup economy over to incubation & acceleration, diversity and recruiting all the way to technology and innovation.

SUN X – Diversity Night – Sept. 07th, 2022
Diversity is a key ingredient for better decision-making among teams. Homogenous groups may be susceptible to groupthink, while diverse teams can leverage a greater variety of perspectives and are likely to consider information more thoroughly and accurately.
Teams that include different viewpoints or thinking styles (cognitive diversity) solve problems faster and produce more and higher-quality intellectual property.
Mixed-gender, mixed-racial and mixed-aged teams can better manage group conflicts compared to homogenous teams and can better maximize creativity among team members.
We will use discussions, panels, talks, workshops and challenges to approach this multifaceted topic.
Diversity Night is powered by medianet berlinbrandenburg!
SUN X – Recruiting Night – Sept. 08th, 2022
On September 8, 2022, Startupnight will be all about recruiting. Whether it is a corporate, SME or startup, all companies are facing the same challenges: To persuade people to trade their time in exchange for working at a specific company.
Ads and job fairs alone are no longer enough to attract attention. That's why we focus on the topic of recruiting and alternative ways to approach future employers.
