Digital Summit
Shaping the Digital Transformation Together
Shaping the Digital Transformation Together
Digitisation affects everyone – companies, citizens, scientists and society. The Digital Summit is the central platform for cooperation on shaping a forward-looking policy framework for the digital transformation. Together with IBM Fraunhofer presents its research on the field of Quantum Imaging.
Digital platforms are an important element of our economy, media, government and society. They provide a channel to goods, services, content, information and data. As intermediaries, they bring supply and demand together more effectively than traditional business models, and can thus transform existing markets or create entirely new ones.
The Digital Summit wants to help raise awareness in the business community and society of the opportunities and challenges of the digital platforms, to host events, exhibitions and showcases which promote the establishment and use of digital platforms and – if necessary – to provide a stimulus for additions to the policy environment. If Germany’s and Europe’s economies are to enjoy lasting success, it is vital to participate appropriately in the value added by the platform economy and to become a provider and shaper of the data economy. We therefore aim to put the conditions in place for Germany and Europe to generate and grow innovative and competitive digital platforms which enjoy global success.

In March 2018, the new Fraunhofer Lighthouse Project QUILT (Quantum Methods for Advanced Imaging Solutions) was launched in Berlin. The letters represent a consortium of six Fraunhofer institutes and partners from science and industry who work closely together in the field of quantum research and thus combine their scientific expertise and extensive knowledge of the market.
