The DAI and the City of Heidelberg have initiated the Digitality@Heidelberg event series to discuss the possibilities, opportunities and risks of digital urban development and intelligent networking. Whether mobility, digital networking between objects, people or companies, geodata, or Work 4.0 - speakers from business and science will show where digitization is already present and being used in everyday life. On May 18, 2017, Prof. Dr. Thomas Henning, Director of the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy, will speak at the DAI about digital networking in science and overcoming space and time.
