One Vision. Three Elements.

Inspiration occurs when we experience something special and share it with others. At events that actively involve people – offline and online. For this reason, PHOTOPIA Hamburg is an exciting system of three interwoven concept elements. PHOTOPIA Summit, PHOTOPIA City and PHOTOPIA 365 create a new form of industry platform. A unique system of inspiration for users – from smartphone owners to imaging pros. And a business platform for established players and newcomers not just from Europe, but all over the world.

 

Four days live. 365 days online.

PHOTOPIA Hamburg will become the destination for inspiration and interdisciplinary discourse at both a B2C and B2B level. Not just four days a year, but on an ongoing basis. With the motto "Share your vision", the industry is looking to a future in which smart imaging solutions will enrich the lives of more and more people.

With this innovative format we want to let a large audience enjoy the fascination of photography, video filming and other imaging technologies by allowing them to be actively involved. This event not only provides a platform for professional and hobby photographers, dealers and fans of photo culture but also, and expressly so, for the huge audience of smartphone owners who use their devices to take pictures and to communicate through images on a daily basis.
