From Connections to Cars: Insights from the Heizr Industries Event '26
list
A little while ago, I had the incredible opportunity to attend the Heizr Industries event held at the Motorworld Village near Stuttgart, Germany. This unique venue set the perfect backdrop for a gathering of car enthusiasts and industry professionals alike. To make the drive to the event more enjoyable, I was fortunate enough to be provided with an Audi Q8 V6 TDI from Audi Hungary. This impressive vehicle was not only efficient but also remarkably comfortable, making the journey smooth and enjoyable.
Upon arriving at the event, I was thrilled to reconnect with familiar faces and make new friends. One highlight was meeting Malte, a collaborator from my past work on the Mercedes-Benz Social car projects. Reminiscing about our shared experiences brought back fond memories and reinforced the importance of these connections within the automotive community. Additionally, I was excited to catch up with Imi and Dani from Hungary. We previously worked together on Rusty magazine and "Rozsdakupac", and it was a pleasure to see how our paths crossed once again in such a vibrant setting. The atmosphere at the Heizr Industries event was truly beyond imagination. The venue itself is something special, brimming with character, and it provided an ideal environment for showcasing some outstanding vehicles. The cars on display were simply amazing, each telling its own story. I also had an Canon RF "fisheye" lens with me -thanks to Fotoplus which I was really eager to test in this type of environment where showcasing new techniques of photography is clearly becoming more and more important.
As the day unfolded, I couldn't help but feel energized and motivated by the spirit of collaboration and creativity that permeated the event. Felix and his team did a fantastic job of curating the selection of cars and ensuring the event was not only welcoming but also memorable for everyone involved. In summary, my experience at the Heizr Industries event was a remarkable blend of nostalgia, camaraderie, and inspiration. It reinforced my passion for the automotive world and left me eager for what the future holds.
