Ingo leads the Business Control Committee (BCC). See upcoming [Meet TYPO3 events](https://typo3.org/community/events/meet-typo3/all). Over the two day event, 33 sessions were held across three tracks. The program offered topics about technology, business strategies, leadership, business organization and personal health. Also, a must-have for any conference in 2023: artificial intelligence. AI was one of the top topics in this conference and in particular, AI tools to help in the development process. Testing of web applications was also a popular topic and it is good to see that TYPO3 is already on a very good track concerning the automated QA of development. It was interesting to see the amount of non-technical talks during this event, including nurturing mental health and approaches to remuneration as an agency or freelancer. I also enjoyed the high quality of all the sessions. Technology and concepts for web applications are constantly evolving and new techniques are always being developed. [Openness](https://my.typo3.org/) is a TYPO3 value, and being TYPO3 at WEUC was a great opportunity to hold an open exchange with other systems, their concepts and ideas. ![](https://news.typo3.com/fileadmin/_processed_/3/4/csm_AI5A1856-photographieyvonneploenes_87690da2d8.webp) About the Author [Ingo Schmitt](https://news.typo3.com/article/author/ingo-schmitt) Chairman BCC \| CEO Marketing Factory,Düsseldorf Hello and welcome to my TYPO3 profile!I was introduced to TYPO3 in 2002 when we migrated the Marketing Factory website from plain HTML to TYPO3.

We host an annual unconference and regular meetups throughout the year, bringing together TYPO3 users, developers, and enthusiasts from the region.A topic I’m especially interested in is Community Ideas. It enables members to submit proposals, vote on them, and actively shape what gets funded by the TYPO3 Association. I’m motivated to further increase member engagement, both in contributing ideas and in participating in community decisions.In my day job I’m managing partner at Marketing Factory (Düsseldorf), where I focus on digital projects, long-term customer relationships, and organizational development.
