Working Groups
Silicon Saxony currently offers regular networking, information, exchange and cooperation formats in 20 clearly defined subject areas – our working groups (AK). These offer an exciting range of content from skilled workers to technologies to entrepreneurship. Almost all work areas of our industries are thought of. However, if a topic is missing, we will be happy to develop a new AK with you.
Here, we pursue the “bottom-up” strategy. In most cases, the need and the initial initiative for a working group come directly from member companies and institutions. Silicon Saxony – and here especially the Secretariat (GS) – picks up these threads and subsequently supports the foundation, the organization and the regular execution of the working groups. For this purpose, an employee of the GS is assigned to each AK.

What our members say
What I particularly appreciate about the working group is the practical view of the bigger picture. The cross-industry exchange gives me valuable ideas for my own work with customers and partners in the industry.
The information and decision-making aids provided by the Patents – Law – Taxes working group, as well as the resulting contacts, help me a lot in my work.
The Silicon Saxony working groups not only serve to exchange information and experiences, but also support the creation of new impulses for further developments.
As a Dutch IC design house, Bruco IC has had a design office in Berlin since 2021. It is very good to be connected with the IC Design working group of Silicon Saxony to exchange experiences and connect with the large ecosystem of Silicon Saxony.
The working group is a very suitable exchange of experience in a specialist committee with expertise in international business. Opportunities, risks and also current challenges in global service are highlighted.
The Global Service Management working group offers me a very good opportunity to meet with like-minded people and to have a general exchange about all service levels and functions. It also provides me with new input through exciting presentations on current topics.
I follow the current trends in maintenance in the Global Service Management working group with great interest, from material logistics to the use of augmented and virtual reality.
The Silicon Saxony Startup Working Group offered us a safe and confidential platform to challenge our business idea with people from the Saxony region. We received very valuable feedback from people who have already gone down the path of founding a company.
This kind of honest feedback is absolutely priceless and a unique offer.
We at elevait support the Artificial Intelligence working group because we see it as an opportunity to make a difference together and exchange holistic perspectives in an often complex environment. I personally appreciate the high level of commitment of all participants and the many years of experience of the working group.
