Digitalization & AI
At Viventure, we drive the digital transformation with a clear vision: making systems efficient, future-ready, and competitive. While discussions about administrative failures dominate headlines, we focus on solutions—developing strategies that improve processes and create a solid foundation for a digital future. From AI-driven innovations to modernizing public services, we work to ensure that Germany doesn’t fall behind but leads the way in smart, sustainable and value based digitalization.

The "It works after all" republic
That was one of the headlines on the front page of WELT. The article discusses a ‘dysfunctional state’ in many areas.
A podcast from Lage der Nation (State of the Nation) highlighted numerous examples of administrative failures.
Another headline read: ‘Germany misses targets for the digitalisation of authorities.’
While some points may be journalistic exaggeration, in many respects, we must make a great effort to keep up with international competition and avoid falling behind. It is crucial to position our country as best as possible for a successful future.

"We need to find a new beginning for the digitization of administration. To put it bluntly, we would have to say: We have failed so far. There are islands and oases on these islands - but we must manage to become more digital across the board. I am looking forward to working with district administrators, digitization managers from the districts, representatives of the federal and state governments, and interesting experts to develop new ways to digitize districts more quickly and effectively."

Green Finance Panel at COP29
The transition to a sustainable economy requires bold action and innovative financial solutions. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and corporates committed to climate action often face significant funding challenges when developing and scaling sustainable products and services. Traditional financing structures may not always align with the needs of these forward-thinking businesses, making it crucial to explore new avenues for investment and capital mobilization.

At the beginning of 2021, the Beethoven Orchestra was appointed as a United Nations Climate Change Goodwill Ambassador by the UN Climate Change Secretariat (UNFCCC).

Mele | GIZ
Greenfuels Paraná, Brazil
In Toledo, Brazil, the mele Group has developed a pioneering biogas project that transforms environmental challenges into sustainable energy solutions. By utilizing liquid manure—a major source of groundwater pollution, methane emissions, and odor—the plant converts waste into biomethane, hydrogen, and sustainable fuels (SAF/green methanol). This groundbreaking approach not only mitigates environmental impact but also drives the transition toward clean energy and a circular economy.
We work with strong voices...
"A daring mindset is important, otherwise we will not have innovation happening. If we don't have that moonshot way of thinking, we set goals in the light off what is already is available. The Global Innovation Hub is promoting this moonshot way of thinking to closing the gap between whats needed and whats possible."
