The HSZG shapes structural change by bringing together technological innovations and social science findings. From energy and semiconductor technologies to regional identity and new forms of participation: we integrate economic, ecological and social dimensions. This combination of hard and soft location factors makes Lausitz a pioneer for post-coal regions - in Europe as well as in Asia.
Our strength lies in efficiently transferring knowledge and technology into practice. Close cooperation between science, business and society creates solutions that promote sustainable development and regional innovation. This is how transfer has a real impact - for the region, its companies and its people.
The HSZG shapes transformation where it takes place: in cities, rural regions and cross-border areas. Our research provides concepts for post-coal regions and makes the HSZG a strong partner for transformation processes in society as a whole. We develop future prospects for long-term structural change and design services that promote dialog with society.
