Networking Dinner
Let's go to the...
ZOLLPACKHOF - Elisabeth-Abegg-Straße 1, 10557 Berlin
On the evening of the first day of the event, we traditionally invite you to a joint networking dinner in one of the most beautiful locations in the capital. Together we will end the day with cool drinks and delicious food in a relaxed atmosphere.
About the location
The Zollpackhof opened on June 10, 2005 with direct access to the riverside promenade towards Bellevue Palace, a view of the Federal Chancellery and the Swiss Embassy and boasts centuries-old trees in the chestnut garden.
The story began 300 years ago, when the expelled Huguenots from France were guaranteed a new life in Prussia. One of the exiles was Monsieur Menard, who opened the “Menardie”, one of the first restaurants in Berlin.
Berlin restaurateur Benjamin Groenewold returned a piece of tradition to the capital with the reopening.
The former casino, a building more than 150 years old, forms the heart of today’s restaurant. The extraordinary 360-degree fireplace in the center provides pure romance during the winter and on cool summer evenings.
