About Kandu
Kandu curates event formats for the people who actually run digital commerce. Sometimes that means sixteen around a marble table on the 33rd floor. Sometimes two hundred on a summer evening in Hamburg.
What every format has in common: there is no stage to hide behind and no cocktail table where people talk politely past each other. We assemble guest lists worth staying for – and handle everything else, so that only one thing has to happen in the room.
Every invitation is a decision. We select people who have something to say – and who know how to listen.
No sales rounds, no stacks of business cards, no networking clichés. People at our tables come to talk. Not to sell.
Whether a dinner for sixteen or a meetup for two hundred: every format has a purpose, and it is defined beforehand.
Our Formats
01
By personal invitation only. An evening at a venue you don't know in advance, with around fifteen people you won't forget afterwards. No agenda, no stage, no name tag.
Up to 20 people02
The tightest circle. A hand-picked group of decision-makers who keep meeting over months – and therefore eventually discuss things you don't tell strangers. Confidential, recurring, no audience.
Up to 30 people03
When a stage is genuinely needed, it should have substance. Speakers who work in the field. Topics still relevant next Monday. And enough breaks, because that is where the real work happens.
Up to 200 people04
The largest e-commerce meetup in northern Germany. No sponsor talks, no stage, no dress code. Just the industry, cold drinks and an evening in the open air.
Up to 500 peopleUpcoming Events
All formats are curated and accessible by application. Spots are deliberately limited – for some formats there are sixteen.
Das größte E-Commerce-Meetup Norddeutschlands kehrt zurück. Zwei Tage intensiver Austausch, inspirierende Speaker und echtes Community-Feeling – für die Macher:innen im deutschen Digital-Commerce.
We show the remaining formats to signed-in members. Signing up takes a minute – then you see every date and can apply directly.

"I don't curate events. I curate
encounters."
Laura Kremer
Founder, Kandu GmbH · Community Lead, eCom Unity
Hi, I'm Laura Kremer. With Kandu I curate event formats for the leading minds in digital commerce – and I hold a fairly clear view: this industry has plenty of stages. What it lacks are tables.
I build small, carefully assembled rooms for genuine 1:1 conversation between the most ambitious brands and operators in the industry. With enough space for someone to admit what isn't working right now.
As Community Lead of eCom Unity I'm the first point of contact for over 2,400 D2C leaders across Europe – from founders to C-level. Alongside that I create experiences for e-commerce leaders: Secret Dinners, invite-only formats, community evenings and brand roadshows.
And I speak on stages myself – at the major e-commerce events and by now in other sectors such as finance. Usually about high performance, leadership, and what actually goes on behind the polished surfaces.
