From May 21 to 23, 2025, Berlin hosted the inaugural edition of GITEX Europe – a new format of the globally renowned tech exhibition. The European debut presented itself as a platform for digital sovereignty, trustworthy innovation, and a legally grounded understanding of technology. The focus: Artificial Intelligence, Extended Reality, and Governance in the age of disruption.

Europe’s new tech platform finds its voice

By choosing Berlin as the venue, GITEX Europe sent a strong message: this is where Europe’s response to global tech developments begins. At the core were regulatory clarity, ethical innovation, and strategic foresight. The location of the debate: Messe Berlin – packed halls, high-profile panels, and international media representatives.

  • Strong start with over 40,000 trade visitors
  • Platform for trust and regulation in tech
  • Anchoring European values in the global debate

AI Governance, Data Protection, and Responsibility

Legal issues were at the heart of many debates. The panels on the EU AI Act and the legal interpretation of algorithmic decision-making were highly attended. Topics included transparency obligations, explainability, and copyrights for AI-generated content – as well as IT security in a European context.

  • The EU AI Act as a structural framework for the industry
  • New standards for transparency and fairness
  • Cybersecurity as a foundation for building digital trust

XR technologies in legal application contexts

Extended Reality was also a legal focal point: Who is liable in virtual space? How does data protection work in industrial digital twins? And what are the implications of AI-generated XR visuals for copyright? The discussions connected technological innovation with legal precision – a forward-looking area of tension.

  • Legal safeguards for VR training
  • Regulatory frameworks for digital twins & AR data
  • Licensing models for generative XR content

An international platform with a European voice

GITEX Europe positioned itself as a place of international exchange – with a clear European profile. Topics such as interoperability, data ethics standards, and innovation-friendly regulation were confidently brought to the table by European players. Berlin presented itself as a platform for digital responsibility.

  • Strong presence of European institutions and think tanks
  • Global impulses shaped by European values
  • Tech diplomacy as part of the digital strategy
