Join the DKE Young Professionals Camp 2025: Where Innovation Meets Standardization
21–24 August 2025 | Offenbach am Main, Germany
Are you passionate about Smart Cities and the future of an all-electric society? Then the DKE Young Professionals Camp 2025 is the place to be! This four-day international workshop brings together young professionals to explore the crucial role of standards in emerging technologies and sustainability.
You will be welcomed by Jo Cops, President of the IEC, who will give a keynote on Smart Cities. Dive into dynamic workshops that uncover the standards shaping our future—and identify the gaps that still need filling. The workshop will be rounded off with a creative session, networking opportunities and of course exciting trips and activities around DKE.
In addition to the technical program, participants will be introduced to various DKE initiatives aimed at supporting newcomers in the standardization community —like the mentoring initiative, standardization regulars' table and the IEC Quest — with guidance from the Next Generation DKE community.
