The topics of the congress are highly topical and arise directly from the challenges that communication professionals face in daily practice.

A question of information quality

In a world that is increasingly characterized by disinformation, the quality of information is becoming the focus of the discussion. Again Deutschlandfunk describes, disinformation often uses emotional language to incite fear and anger. Experts emphasize the importance of critically questioning such information. The term “fake news” is often used as a political slogan, and it is essential to examine not only the information itself, but also its sources.

More and more users say they have come across incorrect information on the Internet. A survey shows that this will affect 48% of German internet users in the first quarter of 2023. People are increasingly recognizing the challenges of modern communication and the potential of disinformation to undermine trust in social institutions. KomKon 2026 offers a valuable forum to discuss these topics.

Diversity in communication

Another important aspect at KomKon will be diversity in communication. Communication is not just a tool, but also a reflection of our society. Properly understanding diversity in communication can be crucial to working inclusively and transparently. Such topics are particularly relevant at a time when fake news and substitute truths are spreading rapidly via social media. Often there are no more people interested in conspiracy theories than before, but visibility has increased.

A strong focus on information quality and industry collaboration will be the first step towards a more transparent communications future. KomKon 2026 in Vienna offers a platform to promote exactly this and to meet the challenges with new ideas and approaches.

With a diverse program of keynotes, panels and discussions, the specialist congress is optimally positioned to prepare specialists for current trends and technologies in the communications world. All that remains is to secure your tickets and look forward to an exciting event!
