93rd Seminar

12 November 2026, Novotel Frankfurt City

Our next seminar will be held at the Novotel Frankfurt City on 12 November 2026.

During the seminar we will be exploring topics such as the rise and fall of Munich start-up Lilium, terrorist financing, Europe’s future in a fractured world, and AI agents in accounting. The seminar offers a unique opportunity to earn valuable CPD credits and connect with peers from across Germany. A summary of confirmed speakers and topics is set out in the table below.

Pre-Seminar Activity & Dinner – 11 November 2026

Ahead of the seminar, you are invited to join a 90-minute guided tour (in English) of the former IG Farben headquarters, also known as the Poelzig Building, and now part of Goethe University’s Westend Campus. The building is well known among Frankfurt locals for both its architectural significance and its remarkable history.

The pre-seminar dinner will follow at Restaurant Weingarten Frankfurt, Clemensstr. 3, 60487 Frankfurt, which is on the way back to the hotel from the end point of the tour.

Meeting times:

  • For those taking the tour: Meet in the hotel lobby at 4.45pm (prompt) to walk or share taxis.

    You can also meet us directly at IG Farben Haus at 5.30pm at the main entrance of the IG Farben Building, at Norbert-Wollheim-Platz 1. Please use Fürstenberger Straße as your main point of reference, as the meeting point can be difficult to find. If you see a pond, you are at the back of the building. Please walk through the IG Farben Building toward Fürstenberger Straße.

  • For those not taking the tour: Meet in the hotel lobby at 7pm to walk or meet directly at the restaurant at 7.30pm.
Places for both the guided tour and the dinner are limited, so early registration is essential.
