Christian Grümme
Senior Java Fullstack Developer
I attended the Freelance Unlocked 2024 conference in Berlin and enjoyed the experience. The biggest highlight was meeting the Uplink members; it felt like a class reunion. Connecting with so many of them in person, who travelled from all over Germany, made me feel more connected to the community.
Olivia Olivares
Google & Meta Ads Manager
Freelance Unlocked in Berlin was great. Two days of a great program, all about freelancing. There was something for everyone, whether it was legal issues, how to raise your rates or how to network properly. Up to 3 stages of concentrated expert knowledge. It was also a great opportunity to network. I'll be there again next year!
Judith Böhlert
Senior Full Stack Engineer
Freelance Unlocked was fantastic 2 days filled with expert talks, workshops, and networking. My favourite part was meeting and connecting with people from my online network in real life. Kudos to the organisers who brought this event to life!
Mike Gaertner
Senior Project Manager
I always find it exciting to meet new people with diverse backgrounds and exchanging our experiences, ideas and knowledge. This was the greatest part of the event for me. Networking and making valuable connections, exchanging ideas and get to know people you wouldn’t have met without the event. You always meet twice 😉 I went to network with people and was 100% satisfied with the outcome of the event! Looking forward to the next one! Thanks Freelance Unlocked 🔓
Mark Rödiger
Marketing Manager
In May 2024, I had the opportunity to attend Freelance Unlocked in Berlin. The various panels and lectures offered a wide range of insights into topics and challenges relevant to me. I particularly enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere, which made networking easier and allowed me to make valuable connections. Overall, it was an inspiring event that I would gladly attend again.
Josefine Walter
Agile Coach & Scrum Master
Freelance Unlocked does so much differently! It's a networking event for freelancers that takes networking seriously. I enjoyed the community aspect the most. Freelance Unlocked connects people in various ways, starting right from the beginning with WhatsApp groups and helping participants find commonalities. This gives everyone the opportunity to get in touch, exchange ideas, and form peer groups with significant value. In this way, a strong community is built. I also learned a lot from the speakers, including how to optimize my LinkedIn profile and CV, as well as how to better handle the legal aspects of my business. Thank you for making this possible!
Katrin Zinke
eLearning Author
A conference just for freelancers? Yes, it really exists. The format is impressive, featuring a wide range of presentations, workshops, and a lot of opportunities for networking. I've never experienced such a great chance to connect with participants before, during, and after the conference. The presentations provided valuable insights: When should I establish a GmbH? When can I raise my prices? What do I need to consider regarding GDPR and working abroad? I’m already looking forward to the next one. It’s hard to imagine it being any better.
Nicole Kamp
Agile Business Analyst
Freelance Unlocked was a great experience. 2 days filled with interesting and helpful content. Besides the presentations and workshops, one of the best parts was to exchange experiences and connect with other freelancers. It’s a friendly and open community, and I look forward to next year.
Göran Hielscher
Design Thinking Coach & Consultant
Freelance Unlocked met my expectations for connecting with interesting people and gaining valuable insights, though I hoped for more diversity beyond tech. I loved the atmosphere, location, and well-crafted agenda that allowed for networking in Berlin. The presence of government representatives was encouraging. Professionally, I made amazing connections and learned about the tech world. While the full benefits will materialize later, it was an energizing event for an important topic. Certainly my networking sparks ignites the fire soon.
Yun Qiu
Business & Mindset Growth
I attended Freelancer Unlocked in May 2024, and it was just awesome. Even though I only attended one day of two, I still took so much out of it: insightful speeches, amazing outgoing people from different industries, and a great location and environment. All in all, everything was perfect!
Bertrand Rothen
Senior Product Management Consultant
Freelance Unlocked definitely is the conference to be for all freelancers in tech & digital! A great event for 'new freelancers' to find answers to questions we all had at some point (like how to navigate German bureaucracy and get clients), and for more seasoned freelancers to brush up on current trends, reconnect with friends – and also meet new ones. I was impressed by the production values (amazing main stage!), great content curation, no-fuss vibe (no suits, no complicated schedule or venue), and it was nice atmosphere to bring a lot of people together that usually work individually!
