Bremen stands for the responsible and socially embedded development and application of artificial intelligence. The research institutions within the U Bremen Research Alliance are advancing innovative approaches with a clear focus on open science, sustainability, and democratic values. The alliance expressly supports the political resolution: What is needed are strategic investments in existing structures, the expansion of open platforms, and joint innovation initiatives between academia, industry, and society.

Right now, excellent research initiatives, transfer structures, and data spaces are closely connected in Bremen, working to realize the potential of AI for the people, and in the spirit of democracy, diversity, and open-mindedness.

As part of the national AI strategy, the U Bremen Research Alliance seeks to provide strategic and sustainable contributions – as a model region for trustworthy AI, a location for sustainable digital infrastructure, and a hub for open, interdisciplinary knowledge transfer.
