Cologne / Germany, 26 February 2026 | Visitors and exhibitors at ANGA COM, Europe’s leading Exhibition and Conference for Broadband, Media and Connectivity, can look forward to another major premiere in Cologne from 19 to 21 May 2026: the “Intelligent Connectivity Park”. This joins the existing Showroom In-house Networks and the new interactive ANGA COM Round Tables format. With a modern space concept consistently focused on innovation and interaction, the event is breaking entirely new ground in the central area of hall 7. For the first time, the “Intelligent Connectivity Park” offers specialized, compact theme clusters for Artificial Intelligence, cloud solutions, data centers and resilience in one central location designed specifically for exchange and networking. Here, digital infrastructure and intelligent software solutions mesh particularly closely.
Companies from these sectors can present their products and concepts using regular exhibition stands or the new “Intelligent Connectivity Stations” (starting at 3,900 Euros, including stand construction and furniture) directly at the Innovation Stage. These new, compact stations enable a highly efficient, modern show presence with minimal organizational effort.
The Innovation Stage will host live use cases and deep-dive sessions accessible to all visitors, featuring short, concise panels and presentations. As a new media partner for ANGA COM, the leading testing magazine connect will be active with panels in both the conference programme and on the Innovation Stage.
For the first time this year, the presence of partner organizations and institutions will also be concentrated at the new Intelligent Connectivity Park. These include the Federal Gigabit Bureau with the federal states, the federal gigabit funding program of the Federal Ministry for Digital Transformation and Government Modernisation, Broadband Forum, German TV Platform, VATM and ZVEI. The new networking hotspot is rounded off by the ANGA COM Business Center for business meetings directly within the exhibition hall. This makes it easier for visitors to move between exhibition stands, stage programmes and bilateral appointments.
Dr. Peter Charissé, CEO ANGA COM: “With the Intelligent Connectivity Park, we are creating a close mix of network and data infrastructure and the AI-driven intelligent software layer. This is where new concepts and innovative technology meet daily practice in a communicative environment. At the same time, this further enhances the appeal of hall 7.”
More than 400 exhibitors have already booked space in the two exhibition halls. The exhibitor list and floor plans are available online at www.angacom.de. Information on stand booking, sponsoring and promotion can also be found on the website. The ANGA COM fact sheet with numerous statements from leading representatives of the fiber, broadband and media industries as well as a variety of videos and photos are also available there.
Registration for conference and exhibition visitors is possible online. Tickets for the exhibition are available for 25.- Euros, participation in the regular conference programme is possible from 140.- Euros. Due to the great success of the conference ticket for young professionals (persons under 30 years), this ticket category can again be booked for ANGA COM 2026 for only 40.- Euros. On the third day, Thursday, 21 May 2026, participation in the exhibition and conference programme is completely free of charge.
