20 Years of Unternehmertag
"Stop Complaining. Start Changing"
3 – 5 March 2027

Twenty years ago, entrepreneur, investor and founder Dr Cornelius “Conny” Boersch launched Unternehmertag at Lake Tegernsee with a simple idea: to bring together people who do not merely talk about the future but actively create it.
‍
Over the years, what began as an annual gathering at the Althoff Seehotel Überfahrt has evolved into an exclusive international community. A community of entrepreneurs, investors, leaders, policymakers and visionaries who build companies, allocate capital, assume responsibility and define the future. Encounters became relationships, conversations became friendships, and ideas turned into investments, partnerships and new ventures.
Unternehmertag is not a conventional conference. It is a carefully curated environment for meaningful exchange, trusted conversations, fresh perspectives and connections that matter.
‍
In 2027, we will celebrate 20 years of Unternehmertag at a time when the world is changing faster than many thought possible. Technologies are advancing at remarkable speed, markets are being reshaped, long-held assumptions are being challenged, and the demands placed on leaders and entrepreneurs continue to grow.
Yet the defining questions of our time do not begin with technology. They begin with people who are prepared to take responsibility and embrace change.
That is why Unternehmertag is not only about trends, technologies and markets. It is also about understanding why some people create the future while others merely watch it unfold.
‍
And it is precisely this mindset that inspired the guiding theme of our 20th anniversary edition:
Stop Complaining, Start Changing.
‍
From 3 to 5 March 2027, more than 40 international speakers alongside 600 entrepreneurs, investors, CEOs, founders, family offices, scientists, visionaries and policymakers from around the world will gather against the breathtaking backdrop of Lake Tegernsee for three days of inspiration, exchange and meaningful networking.

Together, we will not only discuss technology, politics and business. We will explore what sets some people apart from others:
• What distinguishes those who build companies, create new industries or transform entire markets from those who wait for the perfect moment?
• How do you recognise opportunities that remain invisible to most people?
• How do you make decisions when certainty is impossible?
• How do you remain optimistic when pessimism often seems the easier choice?
• When does it pay to go against the consensus?
• Which ideas, technologies and business models will shape the next decade — not in theory, but in practice?
• And what is it that so often prevents us from simply getting started?
‍
On our stage will be people who have chosen their own path, who believed in ideas long before others recognised their potential. People who did not wait for the world to change but actively build it.
‍
Because the future does not belong to the spectators.
It belongs to those who take action.
