The first Performance Summit took place in Bielefeld on 15 May 2025. It was a summit for entrepreneurs ready to act — not just talk. Leading business minds came together to develop strategies and share solutions to drive growth, resilience and competitiveness in an ever-changing world. Ready to perform.

The Cost & Value Engineering Conference 2025, hosted by ZF Group and the BME, brings together decision-makers from procurement, engineering and operations to explore proven ways of reducing costs, increasing efficiency through AI, and driving innovation with suppliers. In presentations, case studies and a trade exhibition, participants will discover how to optimise components with data, calculate prices intelligently, and reduce their CO₂ footprint — all at once. Valuedesk joins as an official BME partner for the first time — and will be live on site with insights, software demos and use cases from industry leaders.
