Tradition meets Innovation
A Digital Conference unlike any other
People have been celebrating Carnival for centuries. Over a million people visit Cologne yearly to share the experience. It is the annual opportunity to break with conventions, to meet new people without the usual restrictions. Everyone wears a costume to their own fancy. At no time is it easier to connect and to share within a matter of moments. Everyone becomes a “Jeck”, the Cologne term for positively crazy folks.
The perfect open mindset for a Digital Conference of the third kind: Jeck’n’Tech!
“Carnival meets tech startups – two unique experiences finally united to strengthen the growing ecosystem in the Rhineland!”
Andre Christ, Co-Founder & CEO

Networking
in a setting you’ve never experienced before
On Feb 19th and 20th, Jeck’n’Tech brought together people who share a passion: Digital Pioneering.
It’s all about exploring the digital realm, finding and sharing insights and solutions, overcoming challenges together. Leading digital experts, entrepreneurs and investors mingle at Jeck’n’Tech in an entirely barrier free setting: everyone is a Jeck dressed up in a costume. Open-mindedness is a given: a giraffe and an ice bear make for a great pair.
“Jeck’n’Tech is the premier event in the Cologne Karneval uniting Tech and Cologne Tradition. A must-go-to event. Great people, great fun.
Can’t wait to go!“
Daniel Kirch, Co-Founder & CFO
