DLR and the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy present their new strategy


On 24 July 2017, the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum fuer Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR) and the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWi) presented the new DLR strategy at the Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy.

State Secretary Matthias Machnig took the opportunity to state: "DLR will implement this strategy to address current societal and economic policy challenges, as well as to adapt to the future in the area of digitisation in particular. DLR provides high-performance research infrastructure, competency and experience, from which the economic and industrial sectors can only benefit. In an institutional sense as well, DLR is emerging stronger due to its seven new institutes in six federal states. The federal government will provide 42 million euro each year for this purpose."

"Smart connectivity between the research areas of aeronautics, space, energy, transport, security and digitalisation will allow us to generate a tangible added value for society, the economy and the scientific community," stated Pascale Ehrenfreund, Chair of the DLR Executive Board confidently. "With the new strategy, DLR will deploy its strengths and hence noticeably expand technology transfer into business, thus acting as a driver of innovation."
