BABLE was founded in 2017 as a spin-off from the Fraunhofer Research Society with the goal to create a digital knowledge exchange around smart city topics. This newly created platform was to enable city governments to find the right technologies that can improve the quality of life for their citizens. The impact of this platform and the following projects BABLE undertook in the years since its foundation increasingly helped to build a missing bridge between the public and private sector. In the last years the expansion from having just a knowledge platform to additionally having a fully distributed team of over experts has enabled BABLE to build a proven track record with impactful projects with key players in the smart city field, At BABLE, we strive to simplify innovation. We connect cities and companies to drive the Smart City movement through our open online platform and advising. We are a young, motivated, and multicultural team, working in a highly innovative and dynamic field. Fields of colleagues include energy managers, environmental governance, transport engineering, design thinking, public health, web and software development, as well as: * Dive into a dynamic, global ecosystem at the forefront of Smart Cities innovation, collaborating with over talents from + countries, all in an English-speaking environment full of creativity. * Elevate your potential with us through training and hands-on coaching designed to shape your personal and professional evolution in the Smart Cities landscape. * Be part of the change, where your work directly contributes to shaping sustainable, intelligent communities for a brighter, connected future.
