A strong cooperation

Team and Network

We're the Smart Systems Hub

A colorful mix of creative thinkers, responsible idealists and visionary pragmatists. Mutual respect and an unconditionally positive attitude within the team and towards partners are the basis of our cooperation.

We are courageous when it comes to content-related approaches and working methods. We deliberately leave well-trodden paths, think outside the box and find completely new ways of doing things.

We are

PRAGMATIC

For us, this means working in a goal- and solution-oriented manner, tackling things and not getting lost in “we should, could and should”.

We are

INNOVATIVE

From the integration of visionary technologies and forward-looking methodological approaches to our location concept itself - the topic of innovation can be found in all areas of our work.

The hub as part of the big picture

Landkarte dehub Initiative

Digitalisation “Made in Germany”

On the initiative of the digital association Bitkom, the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Protection (BMWK) has designated 12 locations of excellence throughout Germany as Digital Innovation Hubs. They form a strong network that enables the exchange of technological and economic expertise, programs and ideas. Start-ups, companies and research come together at each digital hub to jointly find answers to the challenges and opportunities of digitalization. In innovation programs, accelerators and incubators, new solutions are developed for industry-relevant fields - from artificial intelligence to mobility and smart infrastructure.
