The technology organization VDE is a valuable and independent technology think tank. With its experts, position papers, impulses, expert opinions and recommendations, it contributes to the objectification of political and social debates. With the VDE Policy brief, the combined expertise of the VDE is brought into the political opinion-forming process. By presenting complex issues from the organization's national and international sphere of activity in a comprehensible way, the first step is taken towards entering into an in-depth dialog.
