How can technological innovation, security, freedom, and economic strength be considered together? And what contribution can Karlsruhe, as a hub for digital innovation, make in this regard?<\/p>\n<p>With the manifesto \u201cKarlsruhe\u2014The Hub of Digital Sovereignty,\u201d stakeholders from the business, academic, cultural, political, and administrative sectors are sending a united message.<br \/>\nThe focus is on an understanding of digital sovereignty that goes beyond individual technologies or infrastructures: It is about the ability to understand digital systems, identify dependencies, preserve one\u2019s own scope for action, and create alternatives where necessary.<br \/>\nKarlsruhe brings together a unique set of strengths for this purpose: excellent research and computer science, IT security, law and data protection, innovative companies and public administration, a robust startup and technology transfer ecosystem, and international recognition as a city of media art. These areas of expertise are to be more closely integrated and translated into concrete applications.<br \/>\nThe manifesto describes how Karlsruhe can leverage its strengths and put digital sovereignty to the test in practice, promote it, and advance it\u2014from technology and security to data and open systems, and on to education, knowledge transfer, and European cooperation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n  <\/header>\n        <\/div>\n          \n          <div class=\"o-cards-content__column o-cards-content__column--with-image-background column\"
