TechnikRadar 2023: What Germans Think about Technology

Cover Technik Radar

Download PDF Summary (English)

Author / Publisher: acatech, Körber-Stiftung, University of Stuttgart
Series: Joint publications
Published: 19 July 2023

While technology is a key driver of innovation and at the same time a guarantor of prosperity in Germany, it also has the potential to help solve global challenges. But technology is also fundamentally changing every aspect of how we live, learn, work, consume, communicate and move around. And these changes are being met in part with scepticism, in part with approval. acatech – National Academy of Science and Engineering, the Körber-Stiftung and the Center for Interdisciplinary Risk and Innovation Research (ZIRIUS) at the University of Stuttgart conduct an annual analysis to investigate German attitudes in this area of potential conflict. TechnikRadar 2023 focuses on Germans’ opinions about sustainable construction and housing. This booklet summarises Germans’ main attitudes towards these issues.
