Involving people & using intuitive knowledge
To kick off the new working group, which the City of Bielefeld's Digitization Office launched a few weeks ago, stakeholders from business, science, administration and civil society gathered to discuss the topic of data sovereignty.
Project manager Bürge Uprak summarizes: "The goal of the innovation circle is to reach an agreement on how to deal with urban data. This will set an important milestone for intelligent and networked urban development in Bielefeld."
