In 2026, digital transformation remains a critical success factor in an increasingly competitive environment. As markets become more volatile and regulations evolve, new technologies are unlocking untapped efficiency potential. At the same time keeping pace with digitalization and automation continues to be a strategic challenge for many organizations.

Since 2018, Circlon – Part of Lexit Group has hosted the Innovation Day as a hands‑on forum for innovation, knowledge transfer and interdisciplinary exchange. The event is designed to inspire, provide actionable input and help participants build networks that support sustainable, real‑world digitalization strategies.

A Panoramic View into the Future of Digitalization

Held on the 23rd floor of the EMPORIO Tower with panoramic views over Hamburg, the Innovation Day brings together leading practitioners and technology partners. Honeywell, Zebra, SOTI, Extreme Networks, ProGlove, Brodit, RAM Mounts and HID will present advances in mobile data capture, networking and automation solutions for production, logistics, retail and industry. Live demos will show how these solutions can be applied to concrete use cases.

Business futurist Sven Göth will deliver the keynote “Future Now – Succeeding into the Future,” addressing the central question: How can logistics, retail and industry become future‑ready? The keynote reflects this year’s theme: “Shaping the Future together.”

Expert sessions by Stefan Pottel (Zebra), Klaus Mielke (Extreme Networks), Tom Vogt (Honeywell), Stefan Mennecke (SOTI), Michael von Soosten (HID), and Petter Lagström & Per Redenius (Idnet AB – Part of Lexit Group) will share practical insights, expert know‑how, and field‑proven experiences. A common thread across many talks is the role of artificial intelligence. SOTI’s Vice President of Sales Central & Eastern Europe, for example, will focus on “AI in Mobile Operations.”

Strong Demand and Peer‑Level Exchange

A total of 130 industry experts from production, logistics, retail and industry have registered – significantly above the initially planned 110. The venue layout and catering were expanded accordingly. The early sell‑out underlines that Innovation Day 2026 clearly meets a pressing market need.

“The Innovation Day shows how pragmatic technologies already deliver tangible efficiency gains across production, logistics, retail and industry. Being fully booked well in advance underscores the need for peer‑level exchange and solution‑oriented best practices,” says Taner Taneri, CEO of Circlon – Part of Lexit Group. “Together with the Lexit Group, Idnet AB – Part of Lexit Group and our partners, we are bringing hands‑on innovation to Hamburg.”
