Bad Nauheim is becoming a digital pioneer: New Smart Region Hub!

The Hessian Minister of Digital Strategy and Development, Prof. Dr. Kristina Sinemus, emphasized the role model of Bad Nauheim for other cities at the opening. The hub should act as a place for ideas, exchange and cooperation and, above all, focus on innovation and smart technologies. Interactive events are offered to make the topics of digitization and their benefits tangible for the citizens.

interactive experience

A special highlight of the hub is the digital planning table that shows a city map and measurement data of sensors. A Ki-Stele answers questions about digitization using voice control, while virtual reality glasses present fascinating future scenarios of Bad Nauheim. In addition, augmented reality enables sensors to be made visible during city walks. A data egg stele provides information about the path of the data recorded, which will certainly arouse the interest of the residents.

The hub is also supplemented by modern technology such as a 3D printer and a large LED wall that offer immersive and interactive experience. The offers range from workshops and conferences to interactive lectures that should take place regularly. Information on the specific events will be published in the near future so that all interested parties can stay up to date.

funding and goals

Bad Nauheim strives to increase the quality of life and attractiveness through digital projects. This is underlined by smart city projects, which are funded with 2 million euros in state funds. The focus is on a digital inner-city management system based on an open urban data platform and also includes IoT/sensor systems. It supports the municipalities in tackling important topics such as climate protection, security and quality of life.

Another starting point is the health city of Bad Nauheim, which is known for top medicine. The city has four hospitals, numerous pension and rehabilitation clinics as well as a variety of medical practices. These circumstances offer fertile soil for innovations in the health sector that are to be developed as part of the Smart Region Hub.

With regular exchange formats and events, the hub wants to build an active community and bring interested people together from different areas - be it from business, research or education. The aim is to establish a strong network for digital solutions in the industry.

In summary, it can be said that Bad Nauheim takes a big step towards digital future with the "Digital.M.puls" Hub. The city pulls together to find and implement innovative solutions for the challenges of our time. More information and details about the versatile offers will soon be accessible on the official website of the Smart Region Hub - a visit is worthwhile!
