As we leave the underground station and enter the market square, we immediately see the beautifully decorated little houses of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.karlsruhe-erleben.de\/weihnachtsstadt?gclid=Cj0KCQiA7bucBhCeARIsAIOwr-_Vwvxh7uB6j7Vw92bAP7Uqr0QW5FVDca4i1mLXfYCV_BSfAohwqSsaAgnNEALw_wcB\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Karlsruher Christkindlesmarkts (\u00f6ffnet in neuem Tab)\">Karlsruhe Christkindlesmarkt<\/a>, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary, and of course the Ferris wheel, which is set up on the market square. There is a lot of hustle and bustle and we briefly enjoy the Christmas atmosphere as we walk past the little houses, the pyramid and the magnificent Christmas tree to the town hall. We make our way through the entrance hall of the neoclassical building to the First Mayor&#8217;s office on the second floor &#8211; with a direct view of the market square.<br>As we are a little early, we are asked to be patient for a moment: Ms. Luczak-Schwarz is still in the middle of an appointment &#8211; and she has a lot of them every day, as she will tell us later. While we wait, our gaze wanders through the corridors of the 200-year-old town hall. We look at the paintings on the walls, which immortalize historical figures from Karlsruhe politics, and ask ourselves how one becomes a politician in the first place. At this very moment, Gabriele Luczak-Schwarz invites us into her office, the perfect opportunity for us to ask our question directly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;I\nwas already interested in politics when I was at school, but not in any\nParty active. We moved here from Cologne in 1989. But honestly:\nIf someone had told me back then that I would one day be the first female mayor of the\ncity of Karlsruhe, I would probably have asked him in astonishment,\nhow he comes up with it. I simply didn&#8217;t have any connection to this position yet.&#8221;\nsays Luczak-Schwarz. Since 2014, the Rhinelander has been Finance and\nMayor for Economic Affairs and since 2018 First Mayor and thus\npermanent representative of the Lord Mayor of the City of Karlsruhe. In addition to the\nFinance, it is also responsible for the business and science location\nKarlsruhe. The topics of IT and digitalization are particularly important in this context.\nrelevant and both are part of the city&#8217;s DNA, so to speak: In 1972, the\nthe University of Karlsruhe (TH), the first faculty in Germany for\nInformatik and the first e-mail in Germany was received there in 1984.\nThis gave rise to a strong IT cluster very early on, which now includes numerous\nuniversities, research institutions and, of course, companies. Not\nWithout reason, Karlsruhe is one of the most renowned cities in Europe today.\nIT regions alongside Munich, London and Paris &#8211; especially in terms of innovative strength.\n&#8220;Overall, we can speak of a real win-win situation, because there are\n4,800 IT companies with 30,000 employees in the region and in Karlsruhe\n10,000 students are enrolled in IT-related degree programs. The\nCompanies naturally benefit from this excellent pool of\nspecialists,&#8221; says the First Mayor.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/karlsruhe.digital\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Im-Rathaus-praesentierte-sich-die-Stadt-bei-der-Bunten-Nacht-der-Digitalisierung-am-1.-Juli-von-ihrer-digitalen-Seite.jpg\" alt=\"The city presented its digital side at the town hall during the city festival &quot;Bunte Nacht der Digitalisierung&quot; on 1 July.

Quite the opposite: the legacy in the\nfuture, she sees it as a central task: &#8220;You must never\nand must always continue to develop. Because standing still means\nultimately a step backwards. In Karlsruhe, for example, we have therefore developed the\nGermany&#8217;s first Office for Information Technology and Digitization,\nwhich has been working from home with remarkable speed during the corona pandemic.\nor has implemented a variety of digital formats.

Therefore\nbusiness, science and administration work hand in hand in Karlsruhe.\nThanks to this &#8216;principle of short distances&#8217;, we are always able to quickly find\ncommon denominator and work together intensively. There is no\ncompetitive thinking, because everyone knows that what we achieve benefits the entire location.\nand therefore ultimately benefits each individual.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The fact that this continuous cooperation, close communication\nand, of course, mutual trust are not a matter of course,\nshows a look outside the box. Karlsruhe was one of the first municipalities,\nwho gave it an institutionalized form very early on. Already\nIn 2018, the karlsruhe.digital initiative was founded to fulfill the mission of\nof the municipal council to strengthen the then &#8220;Internet capital Karlsruhe&#8221;,\nsustainable and viable. &#8220;For me, the initiative is a very\nimportant key to continuing the position that Karlsruhe has achieved.\nexpand.

For example, the office of\nkarlsruhe.digital equally by the CyberForum and the Science Office\nof the Economic Development Department of the City of Karlsruhe.

The look on her face reveals that something has occurred to her at this moment. She puts down her cup, reaches into the drawer and places a flyer on the table in front of us: &#8220;For me, the city festival &#8220;Bunte Nacht der Digitalisierung&#8221; is a great example of what can be achieved when everyone pulls together. And above all, formats like this are fundamentally important for the development of the location. Because in order to further develop Karlsruhe as a driving force of digitalization, we need to enter into dialogue with the public. The town hall was packed at the first city festival &#8220;Bunte Nacht der Digitalisierung&#8221; in 2019. At 9 p.m., a grandfather was still standing outside the door with his grandson, eager to get in. At the time, I spoke to many citizens, most of whom were positive about the digital transformation. But there were also always critical voices, for example in areas such as artificial intelligence. I see it as our task to dispel fears in this regard and to take people along with us in this transformation process.&#8221; This is why the second city festival &#8220;Bunte Nacht der Digitalisierung&#8221; followed in 2022 and before that, InnovationFestival@karlsruhe.digital offered the best digital innovations from Karlsruhe and the TechnologyRegion a big stage in 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-business-development-finances-committees-evening-appointments-good-time-management-still-allows-you-to-relax\">Business development, finances, committees, evening appointments &#8211; good time management still allows you to relax<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Suddenly our smartphone lights up and reminds us\nthat our one-hour conversation with the First Mayor\nKarlsruhe will be over again in five minutes. Your next appointment is waiting\nalready, so overdrawing is not an option. The First Mayor&#8217;s schedule\nis full, because digitization and IT location only make up part of their\nwork: &#8220;I have had discussions with actors from the urban community, with\nthe offices or companies in my department and many more. And\nOf course, economic development does not only consist of\nkarlsruhe.digital. One of my other areas of focus is, for example\nthe Crafts Action Program, as crafts are very important to me personally.\nLast but not least, I am the Mayor of Finance and the Market Office is also part of\nmy area. And for the 50th time, it is responsible for the atmospheric Christkindlesmarkt\nresponsible.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The tasks of such a mayor&#8217;s office include\nalso the committee and municipal council meetings, supervisory board meetings\nand of course evening events such as panel discussions or anniversary celebrations. We\nask ourselves whether there is any time left to relax with this workload.\nremains. &#8220;Of course!&#8221; Luczak-Schwarz replies firmly. &#8220;The best place for me is at home\nRelaxing with the family is also extremely important to me. This is my\nA place of retreat,&#8221; she reveals. &#8220;And I&#8217;m a keen amateur gardener. I love\nnature. For some, gardening may be an annoying necessity, but\nFor me, it&#8217;s relaxation and recreation at the same time.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With this somewhat more personal insight, our time with\nGabriele Luczak-Schwarz has already passed. Too bad for us, we could still\nspeak forever. As we say goodbye, she gives us something else to take with us: &#8220;You\nalways says that Karlsruhe is love at second sight. I think,\nThere&#8217;s a lot of truth in that. It is not immediately obvious what the fan-shaped city\nis in it. You have to experience Karlsruhe &#8211; and then you don&#8217;t come back\noff.&#8221; A few minutes later, as we stand in front of the town hall, the sound of\nKarlsruhe carillon weighing 4,000 kilograms. And the sounds of the 42\nBronze bells mingle with the atmospheric Christmas music emanating from\ncan be heard from the little houses of the Christkindlesmarkt. And while we\nwe know what Gabriele Luczak-Schwarz meant with her last statement.\nmeant.
