SICP - Software Innovation Campus Paderborn
The SICP - Software Innovation Campus Paderborn is an interdisciplinary research and innovation campus. The digital solutions of the future are developed here in close cooperation between business and science.
More than 30 member companies and over 30 professors from Paderborn University contribute their expertise and visions. The SICP unites the different worlds and ensures perfect matches when putting together project teams. We combine our expertise in the fields of AI, high-performance computing, IoT, digital security and software engineering to break new ground and develop intelligent solutions for innovative fields such as smart energy, advanced computing and seamless mobility.
In addition to the technological focus, we always address cross-cutting issues such as technology acceptance and human-machine interaction. Because we are convinced that only the intelligent combination of established technologies creates innovation!
„What makes the SICP special is our great team and the explicit focus of all our activities on cooperation between science, business and society in order to produce future-oriented and sustainable software- and data-driven innovations that generate high benefits.”
„Science can only shape a responsible digital future in cooperation with other social stakeholders. At the SICP, we conduct cutting-edge research that makes a difference: multidisciplinary, pioneering and with people at the center.”
„Cooperation and innovation are indispensable in the modern working world, but often end at company boundaries. At the SICP, research and application meet at eye level in a lively network in which we exchange knowledge in a spirit of trust and develop together.”
