Where science meets fiction

At the Next Frontiers, people who are all working on our future come together to exchange ideas, knowledge and perspectives. Here, speakers and visitors from science, research, the manufacturing industry and politics meet those careful fantasists who can much more freely design scenarios of what is to come – creative science fiction makers.

The future congress in Stuttgart

The future can still be shaped, but in the midst of crises and challenges, this requires more creativity and inspiration than ever. With their lectures and meetings, the Next Frontiers offer a lot of input across the boundaries of specialist areas. The basic belief is: Our future can only be as good as the ideas that we develop from it and then put into practice.
