Hi Berliners,

Yes, yesterday was International Women’s Day. But honestly, it’s never too late to talk about equality, and it’s far too important not to. So the conversation shouldn’t end with a single day.

According to the World Economic Forum’s Global Gender Gap Report 2025, gender parity is still about 123 years away, not until 2148. That’s far too long.

With MÄNNER100 – Letting Ten More In, I’m standing up for equality on International Women’s Day. The more men join, the more access @FRAUEN100 and @TenMoreIn can open to their events and programs. Our future depends on using the full potential of our society, not just half. More info: maenner100.com.

PS: Our fifth column with Gründerszene is out. In this one, we focus on a question many founders are asking right now: Is it worth coming to Cape Town? When does it actually make sense — and when not?

👉 Read the column here: “Wann sich Kapstadt für Gründer wirklich lohnt – und wann nicht.”

If you are in Cape Town, join our FOMO Cape Town WhatsApp Group.

And if you’re the type who likes an unfair advantage, plan your event schedule smarter with FOMO Berlin Insider.

This is one of the rooms where Europe’s urban transformation debates actually happen. On March 19, the 4th Urban Innovation Forum brings together 350+ founders, investors, operators and policymakers working on the systems cities depend on — from energy and infrastructure to mobility, AI and urban governance.

Leaders from Enpal, Carbon Equity, Extantia, Tesla, GET Fund, Future Energy Ventures, Companisto, Berliner Energie und Wärme, Berliner Stadtwerke and Ecoworks will join Berlin State Secretary Severin Fischer, Prof. Volker Quaschning, Saskia Bruysten, Emanuel Heisenberg and Isabelle Canu, on the stage.

Hosted by Climate Tech Hub, the forum has become a key meeting point during Berlin’s energy and innovation week. As part of our community, you get 20% off tickets for the event on March 19. Use code FOMO_GOES_UIF when booking — seats are limited.

What did you FOMO last week 📸

“I support women because my single mother showed me what true strength looks like: As an immigrant and person of color, without speaking German, she raised five children in Germany, later went to university, and built a real estate portfolio. If that’s possible under those conditions—imagine what’s possible with fair opportunities.”
