Program content & design: A balanced program that appeals to both young and experienced members is essential. There should be a limited number of presentations. The introduction of topic tables and panel discussions in the breaks between the program items as well as a champagne reception before dinner could encourage interaction. The integration of the expert committees and the possibility of online participation could round off a concept.

Location & logistics: A central location, ideally in the middle of Germany, would be advantageous for holding the "DGM-Tag". Starting at 1 p.m. seems appropriate. An interesting location, possibly in conjunction with an industrial site, could offer an interesting experience.

The idea of a 2-day event or a more compact day trip with a maximum program of five hours was rated positively. A seamless transition to the evening convention should be guaranteed in the fut

Costs & funding: The event costs should be kept low, with sponsorship being considered as a possible source of funding.
