Science Communication

All participating institutions of the High Performance Center are long-standing members of the Science & Innovation Alliance Kaiserslautern e.V. (SIAK), which contributes in particular to an intensive social participation of the research institutions in various areas of public life.

Thus, many joint events organized by the SIAK take place, including the Night of Science and the Startup and Innovation Festival. The social involvement of the High Performance Center is also reflected in the partners' participation in long-term regional development projects such as the Open Digitization Platform for the Palatinate, the EnStadt:Pfaff project or the Digital Villages project.

The Digital Villages project, for example, shows how digitization is opening up new opportunities for rural regions. The commitment for Kaiserslautern as one of six 5G model regions and the win in the BMI's Smart City underscore the success of the collaboration of all stakeholders in the area of digitization in the region.
