On June 22, 2026 an Indian, Indonesian, and Vietnamese Delegation with representatives of 15 universities visited ScaDS.AI Dresden/Leipzig to explore how Living Labs across all four countries – including Germany – could build institutional capacities and open cross-border market access. The visit was organized by Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ).

The delegation was welcomed by Tilman Schüler (Sächsisches Staatsministerium für Wirtschaft, Arbeit, Energie und Klimaschutz), who gave an insight into science and industry in Dresden and Saxony. Afterwards, Dr. Siavash Ghiasvand (head of the Living Lab in Dresden) introduced ScaDS.AI Dresden/Leipzig to the audience. His introduction was followed by research overviews and use-case presentations on hardware, software, and smart materials from:

• Prof. Diana Göhringer (Chair of Adaptive Dynamic Systems),
• Prof. Michael Färber (Chair of Scalable Software Architectures for Data Analytics), and
• Dr. Andreas Hornig (Team lead of Engineering and Business).

The Indian, Indonesian, and Vietnamese delegation concluded their visit with a tour of the Living Lab in Dresden. There, they received an insight into our research with groundbreaking demos such as asanAI. We are looking forward to future possibilities for cooperation.
