Lu Leisering is the founder and managing director of the daytime bar Pinci and is currently opening her second establishment, Breda, in Berlin. Both are contemporary Italian restaurants that combine atmosphere, design, and culinary quality. She shares insights into building a strong hospitality brand and the art of creating experiences that bring people together and inspire lasting enthusiasm.
Two female founders, two success stories, and the unvarnished truth behind them: At just 23 years old, Hannah Kleeberg founded Germany’s first culinary studio; today she is in demand across Europe, and her work is published worldwide. Over the past two years, Lu Leisering has co-opened two restaurants that became true hotspots for the art, fashion, and food scenes from day one. Even Harry Styles is a welcome guest. In this panel, they share their very personal “making-of” stories. They’ll discuss the ups and downs of starting a business and offer genuine insights into culinary trends that last longer than a single fad. From reinventing classic concepts to the question of how to create places that truly matter, all the way to the “experience economy,” where analog and digital experiences merge.
