Frequently Asked Questions?

Here we answer the most important questions – short, honest, without marketing fluff.

Not all events are subject to a participation fee. Nonprofit and volunteer-based organizations have the opportunity to host events at the festival free of charge. Non-commercial community events, events by and for educational institutions, as well as events for children and young people are also exempt from the participation fee. This ensures that NUEDIGITAL remains a truly participatory format, created by the community for the community. Please contact the NUEDIGITAL team, and we will be happy to review whether your event qualifies for free registration and work with you to find a suitable solution.

In the NUEDIGITAL program, a track groups all the events around a specific theme, such as Marketing & Communications, Work Culture & Health or Data Science & AI. Tracks make it easier for participants to get an overview of the program and find events they’re excited about.

It’s possible that your desired time slot on a specific day and track is no longer available. This means another event is already scheduled to start in that track at that time. To allow participants to attend as many events as possible, only one event per track can begin on the hour between 8:00 AM and 9:00 PM. That's why it's a good idea to submit your event early to secure your preferred time.

Yes, of course. You may submit as many events as you like, as long as they are thematically related to the overarching topic of technology and digitalization. Please note that a contribution fee applies to each registered event. Johanna can provide you with further details.

The festival offers event hosts more than just a platform: we provide professional participant management, ensure visibility, and create a space where innovative ideas can flourish and meaningful connections can be made. Before and during the festival, the entire Nuremberg Metropolitan Region is branded in NUEDIGITAL’s signature yellow, and the festival is highly present in digital media. To sustain this platform and allow most events to remain free for participants, we depend on financial contributions. Social inclusion is central to our mission, which is why we’ve implemented a tiered funding model. This approach provides both small businesses and large companies a fair opportunity to join the community and contribute to shaping the festival. Sponsorships alone are not enough to cover costs, so every contribution helps us achieve this shared vision.
