Future locations in the south: ringberlin and Marienpark join forces!
A new type of innovation area is being created in the south of Berlin, which is intended to link not only the economy but also science and society more closely. The Ringberlin model campus and Marienpark recently announced a deeper collaboration. This partnership aims to develop future-oriented business models and establish a place of the future that promotes innovation and sustainable solutions. Europe's largest makerspace with an area of 17,000 square meters is being realized on the ringberlin campus, operated by MotionLab.Berlin and focusing on hardtech and deeptech innovations. Innovations find space here, which are also driven forward through research projects such as Mobility2grid, which deal with climate-neutral solutions for mobility and energy infrastructure.
As berlin.de reports, an ecosystem is being developed in Marienpark that is home to data centers, tech companies and network initiatives. These include, for example, KI Park e.V. and the Network for Industrial Additive Manufacturing. These settlements are being promoted against the background of knowledge transfer in both locations, in particular through partnerships between start-ups and craft businesses in the Berlin Innovation Center for Crafts (BIZH).
A place of the future with many facets
The plan to establish real-world laboratories in Marienpark focuses on innovative approaches such as the Human Centered Security Lab and a real-world laboratory for circular construction. In addition, the DATA2HEAT project will use the waste heat from data centers in Marienpark and the surrounding households to create a sustainable energy cycle. Jörn Oltmann, the district mayor, describes the cooperation as a signal for the future of the district and emphasizes that it promotes innovation and sustainable solutions. Matthias Menger, Managing Director of ringberlin, also emphasizes that this collaboration represents a foundation for a future-proof location with sustainable infrastructure. Dr. Christian Meine, Managing Director of Marienpark Berlin, emphasizes the joint approach to promote innovation activities through special infrastructures.
The innovation cluster will not only focus on hardtech and deeptech innovations, but will also help strengthen Berlin's role as an international metropolis for technology and future issues. This development is seen as part of the city-wide strategy to promote innovation clusters, which include a total of eleven future locations in Berlin, as explained on berlin.de.
A strong network for the future
The initiative to create a future location in the south of Berlin shows potential not only to support local companies, but also to act as a catalyst for new technologies and ideas. In addition, the close links between business, science and society create a platform that is intended to promote innovation and competitiveness in the regional economy. In times of rapid change in the areas of technology and the environment, this innovation campus is proving to be an important step in further profiling Berlin as a location for future industries.
In summary, it can be said that the cooperation between ringberlin and Marienpark is not only a commitment to innovative strength, but also represents a concrete approach to developing a sustainable, technology-oriented economy in Berlin.
