# Hamburg #### Collaborators [Fab city Hamburg](https://www.fabcity.hamburg/en/): In June 2019, the city of Hamburg became the first German city to join the global Fab Cities initiative. In October 2020, the Fab City Hamburg e.V. association was established by Hamburg's Fab Labs, Makerspaces, workshops, innovative startups and research institutions. Fab City Hamburg’s mission is to promote science and research; environmental protection; public education and vocational training, including scholarships for students; and art and culture. As a think tank for the future of value creation and production, the experts at [the New Production Institute](https://newproductioninstitute.de/en/home) are involved in various ***projects*** dealing with the transformation of value creation systems against the backdrop of new possibilities for networking and production in times of digital transformation. #### Learn more about our collaborators Below, you can get to know a bit more about the New Production Institute at Helmut Schmidt University Hamburg and Fab City Hamburg's work with food through presentations they shared during Food Tech 3.0 exchanges. {% embed url="" %} {% embed url="" %} --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
