Vidar Andersen, who has been organizing social media lunches in Cologne for four months, said he sees potential for Cologne as an Internet city as traditional media’s expansion to the social, online world continues.
“I don’t know if Cologne is that special at the moment when it comes to social media, but maybe there is a future here,” he said. “A lot of old media companies here will evolve and probably spin off new industries, new products and new projects.”
