Our contributions to a systems update

We advance the discourse on Public Interest Technology by introducing innovative impulses and developing new perspectives that we embed directly into societal structures. By raising awareness of opportunities and risks, imparting essential knowledge, and providing targeted support to all stakeholders, we ensure that this guiding “code” continues to drive societal agendas and decision-making processes.
