This year was very special for us: for the first time under the umbrella of Digital Foundations GmbH, with a completely new booth and strong partners by our side.
“It was wonderful to see our space become a real meeting place with so many new and familiar faces,” Julia and Julian summarize the three days of the fair.
“We are already looking forward to next October.”
Networks, Security, and Automation in Focus
The it-sa - Home of IT Security, Europe’s largest IT security trade fair, once again highlighted the topics driving the industry: network management, automation, monitoring, and threat response were at the center of many discussions.
It was also encouraging to see that AI has become part of everyday IT operations. Compared to last year, when AI was still a major discussion topic, this time the conversations focused on how companies actually use AI in daily work and embed it within their teams.
“Monitoring and threat response are a huge focus – it feels like everyone is doing the same thing, just differently. But of course, we have the best solution,” says Phillip with a smile.
Together with Extreme Networks and Bell Computer-Netzwerke, we showcased practical solutions from a diverse vendor portfolio. The focus was always on reducing complexity, automating processes, and thinking about security holistically - this is exactly where our foundation comes in.
A New Booth That Caught Everyone’s Eye
A particular highlight was our completely redesigned booth, which drew even more attention due to its size and height.
“The larger, taller design immediately caught visitors’ eyes, and they came straight over to start conversations,” reports the team.
The booth quickly became a place where tech enthusiasts, customers, and partners gathered to discuss future topics and concrete projects.
“The best part was seeing former customers who are still excited about Extreme Networks technologies and remember us as a trusted service provider,” says Alex.
It’s always amazing to see how small the IT world is - familiar faces keep reappearing, showing how connected the industry really is.
To close out the fair, there was one more special moment: honoring the winner of our raffle, sponsored by Westcon Europe, was a wonderful opportunity to celebrate a successful event together with our partners.
Conclusion
As Jörg aptly put it:
“The it-sa is increasingly becoming a ‘must-do’ for the IT scene – a platform for exchange, inspiration, and innovation.”
We couldn’t agree more.
We want to say thank you to all visitors, customers, and partners for the exciting conversations, trust, and incredible team spirit.
We are already looking forward to seeing everyone again in October 2026 in Nuremberg. 💚
