Expert talk with DZ Bank

On January 22, 2026, an enriching exchange took place with Johannes Koch (DZ BANK AG Frankfurt am Main) and Johannes Hack (DZ BANK Hong Kong) as part of the expert talk at the German Business School. The event was organized and conducted by the GBS25 year group – trainees in their first year of training in the areas of wholesale and foreign trade management, freight forwarding and logistics, and digitalization management. The panel discussion offered an open conversation on various topics, ranging from studies and career paths to the role of DZ BANK in the field of logistics, competition, and global politics, as well as current banking perspectives. The trainees mastered the moderation and organization excellently and created a lively, interesting discussion that was greatly enjoyed by all participants. Special thanks go to Johannes Koch and Johannes Hack for their valuable time, their professional insights, and their sometimes very personal contributions, which made the day a memorable experience for the aspiring businesspeople.
