NØRD 2021

NØRD 2021 themes

Start-ups, founders & co.

Mecklenburg-Vorpommern's start-up scene is booming. Their business ideas are as diverse as the fish in the rivers and lakes of our federal state. They all have one thing in common: they are creative, innovative and digital. We provide information about support, funding and useful networks.

Girl power

It is a fact: the quota of women in leadership positions in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern is above the national average. It is an even bigger fact: a lot more can still be achieved here. Special lighthouse projects, matters of the heart and initiatives — showcasing what keeps the women of our state busy.

Digital participation

In a rapidly changing society, it is all the more important to promote and equally build the digital skills of the grandparent, parent and grandchild generations. For knowledge is there to be shared — in old age, in mid-life, as well as in schools and higher education.

Sustainability through digitalisation

Environment, climate protection and sustainability — we give a platform to the most important topics of our time, present new ideas and digital concepts to solve cross-generational challenges and show which steps need to be taken to reduce our ecological footprint.

Regional resilience: Digital cities and digital villages

Digitalisation is transforming markets and value chains. Making use of the diverse opportunities of digitalisation for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, its people and the economy means shaping change together. All communities will benefit from the above — in rural, as well as urban areas.

Data, tech & infrastructure

AI, OpenData, IoT, VR and AR — the dreams of the future of yesterday become the reality of today. We will discuss the advantages, possible applications and limitations of these technologies, as well as their impact on the economy, administration and our community life in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.

Tradition meets modernity

Mecklenburg-Vorpommern — the haven of ideas for entrepreneurs and forward thinkers. Young start-ups, established businesses, traditional crafts and trend-setting creators are shaping the future of our country together. We make transformation tangible in business and administration.

Co-working in MV

Working together or next to each other? Flexible workplaces and co-working spaces not only change the professional world, but also create new perspectives: this is where people meet, where they exchange ideas, where ideas are born. We show which concepts have already been implemented and which ones are planned for the future.

Digital trip through MV

We present people who are contributing to the expansion of digitalisation in our country with their projects and exceptional efforts. On a digital road trip through MV, we pass start-ups, universities, co-working spaces, schools and co. and get to know them. Buckle up everyone, it's bound to be an eventful ride!

Digital society

How is digitalisation changing social interaction in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern? What holds us together? How do we unite the younger and older generations through a common denominator? What are the values that will unite us in the future? One question after the other, each more important than the last. We want to find the answers.
