Overview

OMR is a Hamburg-based German platform for the digital economy, operating across content, events and technology. It is best known for the OMR Festival, its digital-business media operation, OMR Reviews and a portfolio that also includes education, jobs and podcasts.

The company serves marketing, media, technology and broader digital-business audiences. Its market position comes from combining an industry event with year-round editorial publishing, professional education, B2B software discovery and audio content; the OMR Festival drew about 67,000 visitors in 2025.

History

OMR was founded by Philipp Westermeyer in 2011, initially centered on the OMR Festival and digital-marketing content. The company operates under Ramp106 GmbH, which developed OMR into a broader media and technology platform covering content, events, education, jobs, podcasts and software reviews. OMR Reviews launched in 2020 as a DACH-focused B2B software comparison platform. OMR has also expanded its audio business through the subsidiary Podstars, which produces and markets more than 100 podcast formats.

Reputation

OMR is recognized by marketing and digital-business professionals for combining a major industry event with a substantial German-language media and platform operation. Professionals commonly associate it with access to industry speakers, networking, practical education and software-market information. Its event-led identity can make the brand feel more media and community oriented than a specialized marketing-technology vendor, while the breadth of its activities means individual offerings vary in depth and commercial model.
