The GTF Forum is the exclusive event format of the GREENTECH FESTIVAL, specifically designed to foster intensive, solution-oriented dialogue between thought leaders, decision-makers, and innovators from business, politics, and science.

Unlike conventional large-scale events, the GTF Forum focuses on quality over quantity: with a deliberately limited number of up to 150 participants per edition, the format provides the ideal setting for in-depth discussions, cross-sector collaboration, and impactful outcomes. The goal is to develop joint actions that go beyond discussion — to be implemented in meaningful, tangible, and forward-looking ways.

With a clear focus on the decarbonization of heat generation, Berliner Energie und Wärme GmbH (BEW) demonstrated how the heat transition can succeed in a major city like Berlin.

As a driving force behind a climate-neutral district heating system, BEW positioned itself at the GREENTECH FESTIVAL as a forward-looking player in urban climate protection.

A standout highlight: the large-scale Berlin model, which visitors could explore interactively using augmented reality glasses. This made BEW sites and transformation projects across the cityscape vividly accessible – offering an impressive glimpse into Berlin’s energy future.

A powerful step toward greener cities – right from the heart of Berlin.

Sustainability is firmly embedded in the DHL Group’s strategy. With Deutsche Post and DHL, the company is driving decarbonization worldwide – through the use of emission-free delivery vehicles, climate-friendly products, and innovative technologies.

At the GREENTECH FESTIVAL, the company impressively demonstrated how sustainable logistics already works today. Visitors experienced real-world solutions – from e-mobility to carbon-reducing shipping services.

The strong interest confirmed: the future of logistics is green – and we’re right in the middle of it.

On May 20, 2025, the GREEN AWARDS were presented for the 18th time at the GREENTECH FESTIVAL – this year as an exclusive dinner gala at the Palais of Messe Berlin. Three pioneering companies were honored for their innovative contributions to sustainable transformation.

1KOMMA5° won in the Energy & Infrastructure category for its integrated clean energy solutions, from photovoltaics to heat pumps. DeepDrive took the award for Mobility & Transport with its dual-rotor motor technology, boosting EV efficiency and reducing resource use. In Industry & Materials, Dunia Innovations was recognized for its AI-powered “self-driving labs” that accelerate the development of sustainable materials.

Three trailblazers – three answers to tomorrow’s challenges.

“We were already GreenTech before the term even existed.” – Jure Mikolcic, CEO

With an impressive booth and future-forward technologies, Stadler was a standout at the GTF Exhibition 2025. As a market leader in alternative drive systems for rail transport, the company is setting new standards in climate-friendly mobility.

Already, 50% of all rail vehicles with alternative drives in Europe come from Stadler – a clear testament to its technological leadership. These vehicles are making a major contribution to the decarbonization of rail: enabling emission-free operation on non-electrified lines and saving millions of liters of diesel.
