#UniventionSummit

The Univention Summit in wintry Bremen is a fixed part of the annual event calendar of the Thomas-Krenn AG. It is where technical expertise meets the excellent network of Univention partners and customers: A valuable opportunity for us to deepen existing contacts and establish new ones.

Dr. David Hoeflmayr, CEO Thomas-Krenn.AG

There were a lot of interesting presentations. For me the technical track was an awesome time to spend and I learned a lot about docker. We had very interesting discussions and as I mentioned an awesome evening.

Christian Degen, Open-Xchange AG

Univention is an important platform for customers and partners to configure Kopano easily and get it started quickly. Many suggestions on this and further ideas actually have been generated in conversations during the last Summit.

Andreas Rösler, Kopano

Every year, the Univention Summit is a highlight where partner and vendors meet to share new information they can get here. Always a beautiful location with outstanding food. You are just looking forward to it.
