In light of the developments in recent weeks on account of the coronavirus pandemic, BITKOM has called on business, society and politics in Germany to take a new stance on digitalisation and chart a new course. The latest BITKOM position paper, entitled “Digitalisierung erfordert Haltung” (Taking a stance on digitalisation), is intended as a wake-up call. Today, it is more important than ever to actively promote the digital transformation in Germany for once and for all.

The IT service provider adesso will open a new branch office in Potsdam-Babelsberg on 1 July. The branch will be adesso SE’s second office in the Berlin area.

To this end, adesso has formed close ties with the neighbouring XU Exponential University, Germany’s first institute of higher education for digitalisation. The school is set to launch the joint study programme adesso School of Coding and Software Engineering in the upcoming winter semester.

German consumers believe that artificial intelligence (AI) will improve their lives by opening the door to new opportunities and services. They also see the advantages of AI applications and algorithms when it comes to fighting the coronavirus, according to a recent study by the IT service provider adesso.

Times are tough for trainees. The coronavirus has led to a reduction in training opportunities throughout the economy. Companies with reduced working hours are not creating new jobs – particularly for apprentices. That is not the case at adesso. The IT service provider has just filled 20 positions for trainees and students on cooperative degree courses for the training year from summer 2020. A further ten roles for trainee IT specialists and students on cooperative degree courses in IT have yet to be filled, increasing trainee ratio at the company to a new high.

Today LOTTO Thüringen launched its new modern internet presence. The website for Thüringen’s state lottery was again designed and implemented by IT service provider adesso.

The extensive disruption caused by the digital transformation is currently accelerating at an unprecedented rate. Over the coming months, everything is set to change, transform and be redefined: communication, customer relationships, business processes, supply structures, value chains and, especially, the working world. We were already preparing for new job profiles, careers and professions – such as big data scientists or SEO managers – at some point in the future, with 2030 often named as a likely year. When the economy restarts (hopefully soon), it will be IT experts who are in demand. The post-coronavirus economy will be digital.
