Return to On-Site Events
It took two long years before larger events could finally take place again without restrictions. We really missed the big events with all the visitors. Accordingly, we really enjoyed the mutual exchange and numerous discussions with everyone interested in our software. Seminars and conferences could also be held as usual. It felt a little like we were finally coming home after the long pandemic period.
Particularly noteworthy are two major trade fairs at which Dlubal Software was represented. From May 31 until June 2, the second digitalBAU took place at the exhibition grounds in Cologne, Germany; it was a definite success with around 10,000 visitors. However, the trade fair days were not only more than successful at the company level. At the award ceremony for innovative digital solutions in the construction industry, our COO Daniel Dlubal received third prize for his Master's thesis, which was dedicated to the study of the Structural Analysis Format (SAF) for its suitability for BIM-supported structural design.
With our French team, we represented Dlubal Software at BATIMAT, the most important French construction trade fair. From October 3 to October 6, we met many new and well-known personalities in the construction industry.
Joint Company Events
If there is anything we missed as much as trade fairs and seminars, it was definitely company events. It was wonderful that we could finally meet again, for the first time in the summer, in a big circle. The joint games once again clearly showed that teamwork is the real key to success and that it depends on each individual.
Our Christmas party could only follow on this success. In addition to honoring our employees with a round company anniversary, there was a photo box for shared memories and plenty of time to review the year with relaxed conversations and good food.

New Office in Munich
We are constantly growing. For this reason, we have left behind our previous office in Munich and expanded accordingly. In the heart of the big city, our hard-working employees are now in new, modern offices. Product development and marketing have been represented here since the beginning of the year.
Breaking Records with Dlubal Software
We are always excited about the great structural projects that can be implemented using our software. One of these customer projects stood out this year and showed: Records are being set with Dlubal Software. In May 2022, the Sky Bridge opened in the Dolní Morava area (Czech Republic). With a length of 2,365.5 ft, it is the longest pedestrian bridge in the world, and connects two mountain ridges at a height of over 3,281 ft above sea level. NN. The planning and subsequent construction of the pedestrian bridge was carried out by TAROS NOVA a.s.
Growing Community on LinkedIn
With over 13,000 followers, LinkedIn has become our most important social media platform. Many users and customers of Dlubal Software are represented here, which significantly facilitates the exchange for us, and at the same time, it increases our reach with each new contact.
More Videos for Employer Branding
Social networks are subject to constant change. In large companies in particular, users are increasingly interested in building a more personal bond with the products and the company itself. More personal messages in the form of videos are increasingly replacing rigid marketing models. We have also followed this trend as a company and have found: Video messages are not only suitable for contact with customers and potential users. They can also be crucial to the growth of our team.
We reach a lot more people with short videos. This form of communication is more pleasant and personal. At the same time, more information can be conveyed in a short time. Therefore, we also use this knowledge for our employer branding. We want to show our future team members what it really means to work at Dlubal, and this is what video is made for.
