Talks & Beats

Okt. 29th - Nov. 7th  |  Frankfurt a. M., Germany

Shaping the future together

The Smart Rebel Convention. For everyone who celebrates what they stand for.

Climate crisis, conflicts, AI… We are facing unprecedented challenges. We’re searching for orientation, information, strategies for action, and perspectives that make sense.

The Smart Rebel Convention is the hybrid festival format that strikes this balance. Talks on topics from business, science, and politics are accompanied by beats into the night. This mix, hosted in specially designed spaces, energizes and inspires! It’s always a good thing when things get moving.

The best part: You can apply for a ticket for free! Because there are people who believe in you — and in the idea that, despite all the complex issues of our time, we can still look to the future with optimism.

Supported by the EU, ESA, the German state of Hesse, and many others, a series of micro-events will take place between October 29 and November 7, both in physical and virtual spaces. The Talks & Beats event series will reach its peak with the grand finale on November 6 and 7.

The Smart Rebel Convention 2025 is just the beginning — the launchpad for more events of this kind across Europe.

The Smart Rebel Convention.
For everyone who celebrates what they stand for.

Bernd Breiter

The visionary & founder

The founder of SMART REBELLION GmbH and initiator of SRC is the Frankfurt entrepreneur Bernd Breiter, who is known for his passion for spectacular events and his visionary thinking. Bernd Breiter has repeatedly demonstrated his ability to overcome avoidable limits of what is feasible with his ventures.

Bernd Breiter was named “Nightlife Innovator” by Forbes and has received international recognition for his commitment to combining science and entertainment. In addition to the idea of the first “club in space”, he realized the BCB Club Kitchen in 2022 - the first “club restaurant” on the ISS, together with ESA astronaut Matthias Maurer.

Bernd Breiter has a single goal: he wants to give young adults the opportunity and motivation to develop their personalities and work towards a better future.
