That was re:publica x New Fall Festival

How is artificial intelligence changing our everyday lives, our relationships and research? What kind of spaces does democracy need online? And what stories give us hope for the future in times of crisis? 

We discussed these and many other exciting questions about our digital present with you on 31 October and 1 November 2025: With speakers from politics, science, culture and the media, re:publica opened up spaces for exchange, discussion and critical reflection as part of the New Fall Festival.

Thank you to everyone who attended our re:publica premiere in North Rhine-Westphalia! If you couldn't make it to Düsseldorf or would like to watch your favourite session again, you can now find video recordings from the NRW Forum in Düsseldorf on our YouTube channel. There are also lots of great photos of the event on flickr.
