All Market Badge holders have access to the EFM Conference Programme, taking place at the Documentation Centre, located just three minutes from Gropius Bau.

To help you navigate the Conference Programme, an overview of all formats will be available here.

Full programme details will be listed in the EFM Event Schedule by the end of January 2026.

The EFM’s talks and masterclasses support professionals in navigating today’s rapidly changing industry landscape. They provide context, background knowledge, and practical insights—from market intelligence and case studies to trend analyses and forward-looking conversations.

Formats include keynotes, presentations, and in-depth discussions that invite reflection, spark debate, and support informed decision-making.

The EFM continues its commitment to mental health within the media industry by offering all participants a dedicated Room of Stillness—a space for rest, reflection, and recharging during the market.

In addition, Centre @ Room of Stillness hosts three guided 30-minute meditation sessions on Monday. No equipment is required; participants are welcome to simply drop in and unwind.
