Review | Digi­tal Hub Initia­ti­ve Net­work Mee­ting Febru­ary 2022

Sus­taina­bi­li­ty has been an important topic for seve­ral years now and is beco­ming incre­asing­ly urgent within our socie­ty - in both pri­va­te and busi­ness con­texts. The last net­work mee­ting of the Digi­tal Hub Initia­ti­ve was pre­cis­e­ly about this exch­an­ge. Tog­e­ther with all par­ti­ci­pan­ts from the other de:hubs in Ger­ma­ny, we loo­ked at the 17 Sus­tainable Deve­lo­p­ment Goals and addres­sed the ques­ti­ons “What are the Digi­tal Hubs within the initia­ti­ve alre­a­dy imple­men­ting?” and “What can still be done here?”.

In addi­ti­on to updates from the Digi­tal Hub Initia­ti­ve, rckt and GTAI, as well as the Fede­ral Minis­try for Eco­no­mic Affairs, Ener­gy and Cli­ma­te Pro­tec­tion, the­re were also exci­ting and enri­ching pre­sen­ta­ti­ons from guest spea­k­ers Micha­el Fritz from Viva con Agua and Ste­fan Lie­ben­berg from the Sus­tainable Eco­no­my and Fair Com­pe­ti­ti­on, Con­su­mer Poli­cy Unit of the Fede­ral Minis­try for Eco­no­mic Affairs and Cli­ma­te Protection.

The topic of sus­taina­bi­li­ty is also high on the agen­da at Media­Tech Hub Pots­dam. Becau­se sin­ce Janu­ary 1, 2022, every Ger­man pro­du­cer who’s recei­ving fun­ding is obli­ga­ted to imple­ment effec­ti­ve eco­lo­gi­cal mea­su­res and thus enable green film pro­duc­tions. In addi­ti­on to a #mediatech­t­alk at the end of 2021, the­re will be fur­ther for­mats this year.
