About the event

You have probably heard the term before. Some admire it, some criticize it, and many are not quite sure what it actually means. So, what does a lobbyist really do?

Stephan Röckemann, Head of Corporate Representation & Director Government Affairs at Philip Morris GmbH, will provide an insider's perspective on political representation in Berlin and the transformation of one of the world's most well-known companies.

Drawing on real-life examples, he will explain how companies engage with policymakers, why regulation can determine the success or failure of entire business models, and why trust and personal credibility often matter more than formal authority.

Whether your interests lie in economics, communication, IT, design or law, Stephan Röckemann will show why politics matters to every industry. It offers a unique perspective on the intersection of business, public policy, and decision-making.

Join a conversation about influence, networks, regulation, and the realities behind a profession that is often discussed but rarely understood.

📅 Thursday\, 12 November \| 10:00–12:00 📍 mdh Berlin Campus Foyer (first floor), Franklinstraße 28–29 🎟 Free entry. Please RSVP here; spontaneous attendance is also welcome, subject to availability. 🗣 Language: [English/German]

Visionary Voices: Ein Tag im Leben eines Lobbyisten

Den Begriff haben Sie sicher schon einmal gehört. Manche bewundern ihn, manche kritisieren ihn – und viele wissen nicht so genau, was er eigentlich bedeutet. Was macht ein Lobbyist also wirklich?

Stephan Röckemann, Head of Corporate Representation & Director Government Affairs bei der Philip Morris GmbH, gibt Einblicke aus erster Hand in die politische Interessenvertretung in Berlin und in den Wandel eines der bekanntesten Unternehmen der Welt.

Anhand von Beispielen aus der Praxis erklärt er, wie Unternehmen mit der Politik in Dialog treten, warum Regulierung über Erfolg oder Scheitern ganzer Geschäftsmodelle entscheiden kann und warum Vertrauen und persönliche Glaubwürdigkeit oft wichtiger sind als formale Autorität.

Ob Ihr Interesse in Wirtschaft, Kommunikation, IT, Design oder Recht liegt: Stephan Röckemann zeigt, warum Politik für jede Branche relevant ist. Der Vortrag bietet einen besonderen Blick auf die Schnittstelle von Wirtschaft, Politik und Entscheidungsfindung.

Diskutieren Sie mit über Einfluss, Netzwerke, Regulierung und die Realität hinter einem Beruf, über den oft gesprochen wird, den aber nur wenige wirklich kennen.

📅 Donnerstag\, 12. November \| 10:00–12:00 Uhr 📍 mdh Berlin Campus, Foyer (1. Etage), Franklinstraße 28–29 🎟 Eintritt frei. Bitte hier anmelden – spontane Teilnahme ist je nach Verfügbarkeit ebenfalls möglich. 🗣 Sprache: [Deutsch/Englisch]
