On October 9, 2025, the PEOPLE & CULTURE FESTIVAL will open its doors for the fourth time at Kino Colosseum Berlin – inviting you to dive into inspiring theme worlds. The four tracks give you practical, visionary, and always up-to-date insights into the key future questions of the working world.

Track 1: Mental Health & Wellbeing at Work

What kind of measures can companies and leaders take to support the mental and physical wellbeing of their employees? We will discuss flexible working models and the importance of social interaction within teams and organizations to create stable working environments – increasingly also in physical spaces. A major focus will also be on the pressing topics of women’s health in the workplace and cyclical working models.

Track 2: Entrepreneurship & New Career Paths

University, vocational training, a social year, or starting your own business? This track highlights the different options young adults can take after school to enter professional life. We will also discuss pathways for career reorientation and how different generations can learn from one another in the process.

Track 3: The Future of Work and the Impact of AI

This track examines the influence of artificial intelligence on the working world of the future. We will explore how AI is creating new professions, reshaping roles, and what ethical and regulatory considerations must be taken into account when implementing AI in organizations and training employees. Another key topic: which future skills employees need today to be equipped for digital transformation.

Track 4: Demographic Change and the Future of Work Society

Demographic change will profoundly impact the labor market in the coming years. Together, we will explore how to address the resulting shortage of skilled workers through measures such as digitalization, integration of international professionals, strengthening female workforce participation, and extending working life beyond retirement. We will also highlight the many opportunities that intergenerational diversity brings to the future of work.

Four topics. Endless inspiration. Join us as we shape the future of work – and become „Resilience Ready!“
