Organisers
University:Future Festival 2024 is organised by Hochschulforum Digitalisierung and Stiftung Innovation in der Hochschullehre. It is supported by Stifterverband.
The Hochschulforum Digitalisierung orchestrates the discourse on higher education in the digital age. As a central initiator, we inform, advise and network with members of universities, policy makers, business representatives and society. The Hochschulforum Digitalisierung was founded in 2014. It is a joint initiative of the Donors’ Association for the Promotion of Sciences and Humanities in Germany (Stifterverband für die Deutsche Wissenschaft), the CHE Center for Higher Education Development and the German Rectors’ Conference (HRK). It is funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research.
Since 2021, the Stiftung Innovation in der Hochschullehre aims to enable innovation in teaching and learning at universities and to strengthen the renewal capacity of university teaching overall and on an ongoing basis. The foundation supports suitable projects that are anchored at individual universities or implemented in a network. In addition, it creates networking opportunities for the actors. It also supports the exchange of project results, successes and challenges and makes shared knowledge available. All funds for this scientific institution will be provided by the federal and state governments.

The Technische Hochschule Nürnberg Georg Simon Ohm (the Ohm) is a university of applied sciences. It is one of the largest universities of applied sciences in Germany with approximately 13,000 students. The Ohm is a place of opportunity for teaching, researching, and lifelong learning. At the Ohm, we are researching important issues affecting society and developing and realising ideas for the world we live in today and for tomorrow. The university has a strong impact in the Nuremberg Metropolitan Region and beyond. Modern teaching and learning formats together with broad and practically oriented academic programmes open up outstanding professional prospects for Ohm graduates.
We are rethinking university! Interdisciplinary, international and digital: this is the conceptual core of the Technical University of Nuremberg (UTN). The aim is to link engineering sciences with other areas of society. The newly founded university also focuses on English-language teaching, digital forms of learning and pioneering research topics. In the medium term, the UTN campus will offer around 37 hectares of space for up to 6,000 students and combine learning, teaching and living in one place.
