The Business Booster 20 26
The place for scaling clean industrial innovation
Munich, 28-29 October 2026
The Business Booster > TBB
TBB is InnoEnergy's agship annual event, bringing together the full clean tech value chain to accelerate Europe's net-zero industrial transformation. Over two days, TBB convenes start-ups, scale-ups, investors, corporates, policymakers, and media to move from innovation to execution.
TBB is not a trade fair. It is where deals are initiated, partnerships are formed, and strategic narratives are shaped.
From Transition to Competitive Advantage: Europe’s New Industrial Era
Europe is entering a new era. Clean energy is no longer just a transition — it is the engine of competitiveness, resilience, and industrial leadership. The countries and companies that scale clean technologies fastest will shape the future.
TBB 2026 is where Europe turns ambition into advantage. Where innovators meet industry. Where capital meets opportunity. Where ideas become impact.
We gather in Munich to accelerate, to compete, and to lead. Not to watch the new energy economy unfold — but to build it.
The advantage is ours to create.
