Abstract
Our interconnected world brings inestimable benefits, but also poses massive challenges. Innovation is increasing at a pace we never imagined just a few years ago, and business models are evolving to match this. The next global wave of technology innovations appeared—artificial intelligence co-opting the internet of things. In such a world it is crucial that Germany stays a safe place to do digital business, for the sake of citizens’ daily life, for the society and for democracy. Just as technology presents huge opportunities for us—it also poses threats. Trust in the internet, in infrastructure, in governments, in military actions in the cyberspace on which our future relies is essential to our economic and social welfare. The internet as a digital marketplace with a material culture offers foremost an insecure environment as long as governments and societies don’t manage to catch up with technological innovation.
