BACK TO THE FUTURE.
Live by values. Shape change.
Under these guiding principles, the Nuremberg Management Summit 2026 invites forward thinkers from business, science, and society on June 11, 2026. Together, we want to discuss a sustainable economy. In doing so, we will take the best from the past to shape the future responsibly.
Attitude is not a trend, but the basis of sustainable economic action. The upheaval is here – let's develop it together with courage, ideas, and energy.
