Education & Career

Philipp Lämmel holds a Master's degree (M.Sc.) in Computer Science from the FU Berlin. He currently works for the Fraunhofer Institute for Open Communication Systems FOKUS, where he is involved as team leader in several industry and research projects in the sections of urban ICT and quantum computing. His main research areas include the design, specification, implementation and evaluation of various open platforms in urban environments. The city is perceived as a distributed system with diverse stakeholders and their - sometimes conflicting - interests. With a particular focus on artificial intelligence and IT security across the entire life cycle, Philipp Lämmel supports cities and regions in the future-proof and sustainable implementation of digital projects. Aspects such as stakeholder management, requirements engineering, software design, quality assurance and SecDevOps are also covered.

In addition, Philipp Lämmel is regularly involved in technical project management at national and European level, reporting and the acquisition of industrial and research projects. He also supervises Master's and Bachelor's students with their theses on the above-mentioned topics.
