KomMonitor Community Tag 2026

KomMonitor Community Tag 2026

We are pleased to invite you to the next KomMonitor Community Day! The ongoing development of municipal spatial monitoring thrives on mutual exchange, fresh ideas, and strong collaborations.

A special highlight this year is that we are guests of G.I.B. NRW (Society for Innovation and Consulting in Labour and Social Policy), a long-standing cooperation partner and driving force behind KomMonitor. For many years, G.I.B. NRW has closely accompanied and supported the KomMonitor family – from implementing the software in North Rhine-Westphalian social planning to offering regular consultations and digital self-learning courses. Serving as our host, G.I.B. NRW will open its doors to us this October.
