With our series “Shaping Administration”, we’re creating a space to discuss the urgent topics surrounding digitalization and transformation in public administration. From AI to open data to digital accessibility – we’re putting the issues on the table that will move our administration forward.
But it’s not just about exciting content: personal exchange with other committed changemakers working toward a modern administration is at the heart of it all. Whether over breakfast, coffee and cake, or in a relaxed evening setting – there’s always plenty of time after the keynotes to talk, connect, and network.
Trust is essential. That’s why we follow the Chatham House Rule: everything said can be shared – but without identifying names or affiliations. This way, you can openly share your thoughts, experiences, and challenges.
The events take place every 2–3 months. Invitations are sent via our mailing list.
We’re looking forward to seeing you at the next “Shaping Administration” event!
+++ NOTE: These events are exclusively for employees of the Berlin public administration. +++
