What does it feel like? What colours, shapes, and movements do we see when we challenge established practices in education?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 2027, we once again want to do more than just discuss the future at the University:Future Festival \u2013 <em>Strong Enough<\/em>; we want to make it tangible. To achieve this, we are opening the Experience:Space at our on-site stages in Berlin and Braunschweig: a place full of surprises where visions can unfold beyond the boundaries of traditional stage presentations and workshop formats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Motto: Strong Enough<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What makes higher education institutions and higher education strong enough to actively shape the future? Higher education institutions are a vital part of a free and open society. They generate knowledge and skills, assess them and disseminate them, so that they can serve as a foundation for social innovation and understanding. At the same time, societal, technological, political, and economic developments present new challenges for universities and colleges. As a result, expectations regarding higher education, its role, its formats, and its impact are evolving. \u201cStrong Enough\u201d is both a statement and a question: higher education institutions have the potential to shape the future, but are they able to fully realize that potential?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What we are looking for<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;We are looking for innovative, surprising, and creative hands-on experiences that invite participants to explore, interact, and experiment. Contributions should inspire curiosity, spark joy, and bring both the festival theme and the digital transformation of higher education to life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether it is robots, dancing paintings, HoloLens applications, creative brainstorming formats, or singing carpets, we are excited to see how you make the future tangible!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" src=\"https:\/\/festival.hfd.digital\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/54534089492_bd4272dbc0_o-700x467.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4992\" srcset=\"https:\/\/festival.hfd.digital\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/54534089492_bd4272dbc0_o-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/festival.hfd.digital\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/54534089492_bd4272dbc0_o-250x167.jpg 250w, https:\/\/festival.hfd.digital\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/54534089492_bd4272dbc0_o-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/festival.hfd.digital\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/54534089492_bd4272dbc0_o-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/festival.hfd.digital\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/54534089492_bd4272dbc0_o-120x80.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"8192\" height=\"5464\" src=\"https:\/\/festival.hfd.digital\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/54535158149_f0408cf4d5_o-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4994\" srcset=\"https:\/\/festival.hfd.digital\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/54535158149_f0408cf4d5_o-1.jpg 8192w, https:\/\/festival.hfd.digital\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/54535158149_f0408cf4d5_o-1-250x167.jpg 250w, https:\/\/festival.hfd.digital\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/54535158149_f0408cf4d5_o-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/festival.hfd.digital\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/12\/54535158149_f0408cf4d5_o-1-1536x1025.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 8192px) 100vw, 8192px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Who we are looking for<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We are looking for anyone eager to offer hands-on inspiration: from robotics engineers to VR world-builders, from visual artists to activists, from researchers pushing the boundaries of knowledge to students with a wild idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Implementation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All selected contributions will be showcased on-site in the Experience:Space.
