InnoLab "Future of Work in Dortmund" started

The committee, under the leadership of the Wirtschaftsförderung Dortmund, has started its work. It sees itself as a real laboratory that wants to invite the urban community to help shape the future of work in Dortmund and to master the coming challenges together. Prof. Jürgen Howaldt participated in the kick-off event as a member of this committee.

"Dortmund is and will remain an attractive and livable city of work." This is the guiding principle of the "InnoLab Future of Work in Dortmund", an alliance of administration, business, science, chambers, associations and the city society.

In view of the great dynamics and complexity of current and future social and economic transformation processes, opportunities, risks and development possibilities with regard to the working world of the future are to be discussed with the urban community. The diverse experiences of the scientific community are also to be included in this process. Work-related research has a long and successful tradition in Dortmund.

For younger generations in particular, Dortmund should continue to be a place where they would like to live and stay. Dortmund should also be made attractive for people from other regions.
