Startups provide us with a sneak preview of the
future. Many of these young people are realizing
ideas for which a market still needs to develop.
Yet these company founders still approach the
task at hand with enthusiasm and vision – because
they believe there’s an opportunity out there for
them. Because they want to make a diference.
These are people who unceremoniously keep
things moving forward and set the trends. All of
their innovative solutions have something in com-
mon: substance and sheer potential!
Why don’t more established enterprises simply
copy these promising ideas and force the "litle
fish" out of the market? Because they know that
copying ideas will get us nowhere in the long
term. But the brains behind the ideas will. For
successful companies in the digital economy like
Google it goes without saying that they cannot
just rely on the creativity of their own employ-
ees. They have to keep looking in other parts of
the ocean. From time to time they pay sums of
money for up-and-coming companies that might
sound ludicrous. But what this shows is just how
convinced market leaders are of the potential in
innovative startup solutions.
The vision and passion of young entrepreneurs,
dovetailed with the experience of established
businesses, create a win-win situation for both
parties. And this doesn’t just apply to the Ap-
ples and Facebooks of the world. Digital devel-
opments are moving ahead at full speed, revolu-
tionizing entire sectors of industry. Companies
in every industry have to continually reinvent
themselves – from small and medium-sized en-
terprises to leading internationals. To win the
tug-of-war for customers, they also have to rec-
ognize world-changing ideas.
This is where CODE_n comes in. As a global plat-
form for innovation, we deliberately bring young
and established companies together under one
roof. And this fosters the new.
CODE_n has its finger on the pulse again in 2014.
This year, the focus lies on big data and the goal
of many companies, in every sector of industry
worldwide, to use the mountains of data being
generated in the digital age not just more quickly,
but also more eficiently. This year’s CODE_n
theme – Driving the Data Revolution – inspired a
good 450 young companies from all corners of
the globe to enter their big data business mod-
els into our annual innovation competition. In the
three years the competition has been running,
that’s a record – one we’re proud of!
The concepts submited by our finalists revolve
around highly targeted applications at every
stage of the data business value chain. This shows
that big data is much more than an issue confined
to the IT department. Research, production, lo-
gistics, marketing, financial accounts, business
development – all have something to gain from
these made-to-measure solutions.
Again, the CeBIT trade show in Hanover provides
the ideal backdrop for CODE_n. For a whole week,
our 50 finalists will be showcasing their ideas
across 5,000 square meters of exhibition space,
here at the world’s biggest IT trade show. CeBIT
gives them the opportunity to rub shoulders with
new customers, investors, and decision-makers
from politics and business.
We invited one of the most talked about designer
duos in recent years – Reed Kram and Clemens
Weisshaar – to provide a spectacular seting for
CODE_n and our finalists. They will change Hall
16 at CeBIT into a place where familiar frames of
reference are consciously transposed, thus open-
ing the eye to the new and novel. Their oversized
expositions provide an impressive answer to our
question: How big is big data?
I hope you will savor the spirit of CODE_n in the
unique seting of Hall 16 at CeBIT. And open your
mind to inspiration!
Sincerely,
Ulrich Dietz

CODE_n is an international initiative for digital pi-
oneers, innovators, and groundbreaking startups.
Initiated in 2011 by GFT Technologies AG, the goal
of this network is to support outstanding busi-
ness talents and their exceptional business ideas,
provide them with a platform for dialog, and
therefore stimulate and accelerate innovation in
the field. CODE_n stands for "Code of the New,"
the DNA of innovation.
global innovation contest
In 2014, CODE_n will bestow the third annual
CODE_n Award under the moto: "Driving the
Data Revolution." The contest is looking for busi-
ness models devoted to the intelligent and efi-
cient handling of large data volumes.
@cebit
The 50 most promising startups have been se-
lected as finalists of the CODE_n14 Contest. They
will present their business concepts at the CeBIT
2014 exhibition. Hall 16, a hot spot for young en-
trepreneurs from around the world, will provide
plenty of space to showcase their innovations.
The hall was specially designed for this year’s
contest by internationally renowned designers
Clemens Weisshaar and Reed Kram, who gave the
backdrop its unique flair.
code_n 14 award
A high-caliber jury will select the winner of the
CODE_n14 Award from the 50 finalists. The win-
ner will receive prize money of €30,000.

ess say
words of welcome
Year after year, CeBIT shows a strong commit-
ment to promoting innovative ideas and young
entrepreneurs, and we can look back on a very
successful track record in this sense. 2014 will
be no exception: With CeBIT showcasing more
than 300 startups, the event has never been so
youthful!
Much of the credit for this success must go to
the CODE_n initiative, which we helped launch
back in 2012, and especially to Ulrich Dietz, who
has put so much personal efort into this excit-
ing venture. Over the past two years, CODE_n
has brought many innovative business models to
CeBIT and inspired us with the fresh approach
and spirit of Silicon Valley.
From the outset we were convinced that the
CODE_n concept would work. The idea of com-
bining entrepreneurship, market experience and
trailblazing startups within a creative presenta-
tion was as unique as it was compelling. There is
nothing else like it on the marketplace.
As the organizer of the world's most important
event for the digital world, we also stand firmly
commited to sparking new initiatives and fresh
inspiration for the benefit of the IT sector and
its user base. Personally, I can think of no beter
place than CeBIT to showcase innovations from
around the globe in a concentrated and imagina-
tive display. One look at CODE_n is proof enough
that this business remains strong, dynamic and
full of potential.
I am especially proud to report the large number
of startups interested in taking part in CODE_n.
More than 450 young entrepreneurs from 60
countries applied. Selecting the best 50 from this
huge number of applicants was no easy task. Evi-
dently, the keynote theme "Driving the Data Rev-
olution" hit exactly the right note, and no visitor
entering Hall 16 at CeBIT can fail to be excited
about the forward-looking applications awaiting
them there.
I hope you are looking forward to this truly spe-
cial showcase as much as I am!

innovation – the new frontier for sustainable growth
Companies all around the world want to atain
competitive advantage and sustainable growth.
But how can this be achieved, once costs are re-
duced, productivity is improved and new markets
are opened up? Where is the next frontier for
long-term growth?
The answer is innovation. Even the most success-
ful companies need to develop a deeper under-
standing of new customers‘ preferences, innova-
tive products, services and business models. To
achieve this, it is necessary to unlock the growth
opportunities with big data which is a key driver
of transformational change in the large majority
of industry sectors. But change is easier said than
done. Innovation is a complex process depending
on many factors. The larger a company is, the
more dificult it is to rethink existing business
models, properly mine and manage big data and
implement a culture of innovation.
Growth and success increasingly depend on a
company’s ability to tap external sources of in-
novation by investing in pioneering startups or
sometimes even absorbing them. It is not enough
to buy and implement innovative big data analyt-
ics and technologies, but to develop rich and sus-
tainable sources of new business ideas. Technol-
ogies ultimately are only enabling tools but not
innovation by itself.
EY is a global partner of CODE_n, ofering estab-
lished companies a unique platform to connect
with pioneering startups for investment, acquisi-
tion and mutual interest. We used our expertise
in innovation management to select young en-
trepreneurs from around the world whose ideas
have the potential to drive the ongoing data rev-
olution and help our clients drive innovation and
ultimately sustainable future growth.

Aentropico is a Colombian startup, made with
love from Latin American cities like Bogotá, San-
tiago and Rio de Janeiro. We empower managers in
medium-sized businesses with predictive analytics
so that they can make informed decisions on cus-
tomer segmentation, product recommendations
and inventory management. Managers get insight
for their decisions by using our data apps, which
are ready-to-use predictive models that solve a
particular business problem using an available
data source.
42 is a predictive analytics platform that person-
alizes in-store retail. We use big data technologies
to process point-of-sale (POS) data and create
profiles for customers. We make it intuitive to
identify key consumers and overall purchase pat-
terns. 42 presented on the runway at New York
Fashion Week in 2013 and launched at TechCrunch
Disrupt in NYC.

mad has developed a device that can be plugged
into a car and synced with a smartphone: the mad
Adapter. It is capable of extracting any data a car
produces, from the number of seatbelts fastened
to fuel level, mileage, and CO2 exhaust. It is cur-
rently being used for things like a CO2-based in-
surance scheme, fleet management, a rental car
tracker, and more. Founded in 2012 by Alexander
Marten and Stephan Kaufmann, the company now
has eight employees and received funding of more
than USD 2,000,000.

The datavirtuality software enables companies to
eficiently use Big Data with a revolutionary new
data warehouse technology: Fast and highly flex-
ible, the software not only processes large data
volumes, but also integrates a large multitude of
data sources, which is its key benefit. This is made
possible not only due to the automated setup of
a data warehouse within just a few days, but also
due to self-learning capabilities, with which data
structures can adapt to user behavior on their
own.

mammothdbMDB is a high-performance, SQL-compliant RD-
BMS designed for running interactive analyti-
cal applications on Hadoop. MDB stores data in
pre-structured "data engines" that sit on each of
the nodes in a system and optimize query execu-
tion. Combined with our "Interactive Map/Reduce"
feature, which is over 30 times faster than M/R,
MDB provides true interactivity. Partial results are
then aggregated through our "Interactive Map/Re-
duce" interface and returned using our internally
developed "SQL Rewriter."

Reducing global poverty is one of the top priori-
ties of our millennium. What are we doing about
it? We are using Telecom big data to improve pov-
erty reduction actions. Our innovation, "Data for
Good", uses emerging market telecom data to find
insights and recommend actions to development
actors (international institutions, government,
NGOs). As a result, they can identify poor indi-
viduals, understand their social ties and provide
adapted financial inclusion programs (mobile
money, micro-financing, etc.).

Clemens Weisshaar and Reed Kram have sculpted
the volumetric expanse of Hall 16 of the Hanover
Fairgrounds with a 3,000 square meter, floor-to-
ceiling graphic that makes manifest the largesse
of Big Data, the theme of this year’s CODE_n.
Big Data is visualized as a massive repository of
human culture and activity, able to tackle and ar-
ticulate the complexity, breadth and depth of the
information available within virtual spaces. Weiss-
haar and Kram have culled and combined data
sets from a vast range of sources from Google
Lab’s annals of digitized books to the morpho-
logical paths of the human mind to create a gi-
ant panorama that both envelopes and frees the
exhibition space. Liberated from the constraints
of digital screens the terapixel-resolution and ar-
how big is big data?
chitectural scale of the graphics incites ideas to
unfold across all 5,000 square meters of the hall,
unimpeded by the communication barriers that
so characterize conventional expo architecture.
In the center of the re-imagined forum, an ago-
ra-like raised platform acts as a functional block
with a full range of gastronomical programming,
an auditorium and curated public space. Against
the backdrop of Big Data, 21st century innovation
is posited as a sequence of deeply connected
ideas and intangible technologies that bolster the
endeavors of 50 international startups, each hand
selected by CODE_n initiators GFT and global
partner EY as the most promising business con-
cepts in Big Data.
Clemens Weisshaar and Reed Kram are the lead-
ing-edge of the field of design. They have been re-
ferred to as "the vanguard of the next generation
of digital designers" (FORM Magazine) and "the
poster boys of a new breed of designers" (Inter-
national Herald Tribune).
Their work has been exhibited worldwide and can
be found in the permanent collections of the Vitra
Design Museum, Weil am Rhein, Museum of Mod-
ern Art, New York and the Centre Pompidou, Paris.
Clients include Audi, Classicon, Prada, Magnum
Photos, Rem Koolhaas' Ofice for Metropolitan
Architecture, PriceWaterhouseCoopers, and the
Volkswagen Group.
Before founding their ofice KRAM/WEISSHAAR
in Munich and Stockholm in 2002, Reed Kram
worked at the trailblazing Media Lab at the Mas-
sachusets Institute of Technology before going
to the tech and start-up epicenter, Silicon Valley;
Clemens Weisshaar studied Industrial Design in
Central Saint Martins and at the Royal College of
Art in London.
Clemens Weisshaar and Reed Kram's work posits
a new form of integrated product and process de-
velopment – and is, in efect, redesigning design.

Inspired by the first two extraordinary years we
enjoyed with CODE_n, it really wasn’t a tough
decision to put our all into moving the project
forward. While our CODE_n community is con-
stantly expanding, I am proud of all the inspiration
and enthusiasm we have developed thus far.
This success is the result of the hard work in-
vested by many diferent people, whom I’d like
to thank for their contributions. You continually
bring new ideas to the project, and pour all your
determination into the work that ultimately fuels
CODE_n.
I would like to start by thanking my fellow board
members at GFT, Jean-François Bodin, Marika Lu-
lay, and Dr. Jochen Ruetz. From the very begin-
ning, you helped carry the vision of CODE_n, sup-
porting it all along the way. Thanks also to Andrea
Wlcek, who has assumed personal responsibility
for CODE_n. With your tireless work in organizing
acknowledgments
this huge project, you play a major role in devel-
oping CODE_n into the great platform that it is
today.
On behalf of GFT, I would like to thank our global
partners EY and CeBIT, and their team represen-
tatives Mark Smith and Oliver Frese. Both part-
ners have believed in CODE_n since its early
stages. Thank you for your valuable contributions
and inspiring input as well as your financial and
stafing support. You have helped us tremen-
dously in bringing the vision of CODE_n to life.
A heartfelt thanks goes out to Clemens Weiss-
haar and Reed Kram. With your fantastic inter-
pretation of this year’s CODE_n theme "Driving
the Data Revolution," you created a uniquely in-
spiring backdrop for CODE_n in Hall 16.
I would also like to thank the 50 finalists and all
the other young innovators who applied to our
contest. We were truly overwhelmed by the ex-
ceptional quality of the applications we received.
You really do drive the data revolution.
My sincere thanks also go out to our jury, who
selected the winner of this year’s CODE_n Con-
test. The jury includes Klaas Wilhelm Bollhoefer,
Murat Günak, Prof. Dietmar Harhof, Bindi Karia,
Tobias Kiessling, Carsten Knop, Prof. Dr. Norbert
Pohlmann, Dr. Krystian Pracz and Jens-Uwe Sauer.
My final – yet very big – thank you is directed at
all of the people at GFT who have invested great
passion and hard work in our initiative. Without
your extraordinary commitment, CODE_n sim-
ply wouldn’t be possible. Thanks so much to
Isabel Alexandre, Flor Barahona Esteve, Janina
