Topic:
Connected City – how Gelsenkirchen is on its way into the digital future

In Gelsenkirchen, all digitisation steps are carried out under the basic philosophy of the “connected city”. Digitisation should connect people and institutions, large companies, medium-sized businesses and start-ups, clubs and associations, social initiatives as well as cultural and educational institutions. Thinking and directing all digitisation activities under this claim is based on the conviction that the city of the future can only be developed from a holistic point of view.
