data:unplugged runs the d:u Festival and its Deep Dive editions for the German data and AI community. The Berlin Deep Dive, branded AI meets Business, targets the enterprise and executive layer rather than the festival's broader audience.

Editorial take

The Berlin d:u Deep Dive aims at the executive layer of enterprise AI, and the 2026 mix of round tables and masterclasses, with speakers ranging from the DeepL CEO to Markus Lanz and Sascha Lobo, signals a deliberate shift away from passive conference attendance toward structured peer exchange.
