Knowledge transfer and know-how development

From knowledge to impact—practical, neutral, sustainable

As a neutral and independent partner, Fraunhofer IESE supports the public sector and industry in building digital competencies. Our team puts the latest knowledge from the specialist departments into practice, enabling knowledge transfer for municipalities and companies. Through active participation in consortia, model projects, and standardization processes, the latest findings flow directly into our work. With an in-depth understanding of municipal structures, we design tailor-made formats for knowledge building and networking. We use analog and digital tools that can be tailored to specific target groups. In discussions, we can define your requirements and create tailor-made offers for you.

Would you like to advance administrative digitization in your organization, or are you a digitization officer or chief digital officer looking to get an overview of the field? We would be happy to help you navigate the jungle of smart city administrative digitization and build your knowledge.
