💙 FOMO Munich - AI Conference, Founder Breakfasts & Oktoberfest Closing

Weekly newsletter keeping you up to date on the coolest events for tech & culture in Munich

Servus Munich 👋🏼🥨

I hope you’re enjoying the busy days in Munich and making the most of every moment! The city has been buzzing with events, and I hope you’ve been able to experience it all (and made the best out of your FOMO 👀). After the event marathons of last week and this week, things will be a bit quieter in the coming days. So for those looking for a change of pace, I’m sure you’ll find some inspiration here 🙏🏼

Best,
Melissa
