Interview | The Einstein Center Digital Future | Shaping and reflecting on digital transformation

The Einstein Center Digital Future, known as the ECDF, is a Berlin-based centre for digitalisation research. It stands for independent, interdisciplinary research into the shaping and critical reflection of digital transformation, developed in partnership with businesses, policymakers and civil society. Its unique public-private partnership model brings together over 30 partners and has been enriching Brain City Berlin since 2017.

 

All four of Berlin's universities, Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin, and numerous other research institutions are part of the ECDF. With funding of 46.5 million euros, the centre is one of Germany's most important initiatives for digitalisation research. The ECDF is currently in its second funding phase, titled "Next Generation", which runs until March 2028. Researchers are focusing on three themes: societal transformation, connected health, and sustainable cities.
