Why we exist

Humane use of information technology

We are at a turning point. AI is changing work, democracy and the way people live together — faster than society and regulation can keep pace. The Integrata Foundation provides orientation, skills and the capacity to act.

  1. Think & Research

    Our think tank analyses technological developments and formulates socially relevant responses — in seven thematic SIGs.

  2. Educate & Enable

    The Integrata Academy provides skills for the AI transformation — for individuals, organisations and municipalities.

  3. Shape & Act

    From digital civic participation to the Wolfgang Heilmann Award: we put ideas into practice — locally and beyond the region.

By 'humane use', we mean an approach in which the development and use of new technology does not merely pursue the maximisation of utility, but also creates added value for society.
