Hey FOMO Munich,

Security Conference week is in full swing, and you can feel it everywhere. Closed-door breakfasts at Amerikahaus, Aspen Institute panels running back-to-back, and quiet dinners across the city where geopolitics, tech, and defence blur into one long conversation.

Beyond the main stage, it’s these side events, think intimate roundtables, invite-only dinners, and late-night debates that shape the real mood of the week. Enjoy your time.

If you are in Cape Town, join our FOMO Cape Town WhatsApp Group.

🚨 PS: For an upcoming FOMO x Gründerszene column, we’re planning conversations with NGO founders and people creating real impact in Cape Town. While the startup scene spends the winter months in CPT, the city faces real challenges. We want to shift the lens and listen to the people doing the work on the ground.

If you’re building impact in Cape Town, or know someone who is, we’d love to hear from you.   

And if you’re the type who likes an unfair advantage, plan your event schedule smarter with FOMO Berlin Insider.

📨 Stay subscribed to FOMO247 and keep an eye out for more exciting events and opportunities we’ve got in the works. Trust me, you won’t want to miss what’s coming next! 😉
