Visibility of digital places

Co-working spaces, creative centres or MakerSpaces can inspire regional and local development. 

With its Smart Country initiative, the WFBB supports this growth potential in rural areas in Brandenburg, initiates new development dynamics and integrates these with cross-industry and cross-sector innovation topics.The focus here is on value creation, employment, and the external visibility of digital spaces.

Focal points in this area:

  • Supporting stakeholders and their projects in digital places such as Smart Village Bad Belzig and Wiesenburg, Smart City Guben, Smarter Spreewald, etc.
  • Building new urban-rural relationships
  • Promoting exchange between co-working spaces, hubs and labs in the state of Brandenburg
  • Real-world labs, test fields and model regions with nationwide relevance
