Palomar5 is a project initiated by a group of 6 young Germans and Deutsche Telekom's Product and Innovation Unit, whose aim is to involve young people in a new format of innovation. Palomar5 isn't a think-tank or a conference, it wants to produce more than ideas, to create tangible solutions within an intensive creative space.

At the core of this initiative is a 6 week camp that brings together 30 people under the age of 30. They will live and work together in a unique 2000sqm space from October 9th till November 21st in Berlin.

The topic is the future of innovation, technology and the working environment. The content streams we will be working on are Leadership, Collaborative Value Creation, Knowledge Cultivation, Corporate Communication & Behaviour, The next Generation of Identity, Intellectual Property, Skills Management.

After six weeks the results will be presented to 400 representatives of business, politics, science, culture and media during a two-day summit on the camp location. The participants will get a chance to implement their projects, ideas and solutions with our partner-company Deutsche Telekom AG, BMW and many other big players.

Palomar5 is looking for 30 people worldwide, Applicants can come from different backgrounds such as design, engineering, business, informatics etc. Applications can be submitted online till the 15th of August. If you are part of the LIFT Community, mention that in your application!
