FIZ Karlsruhe – Leibniz Institute for Information Infrastructure
FIZ Karlsruhe – Leibniz Institute for Information Infrastructure is one of the large infrastructure institutions in Germany and member of the Leibniz Association.
By “information infrastructure” we mean the entire set of content, technologies, methods, processes, and associated services that make it possible to generate, distribute, and maintain knowledge. The information infrastructure is part of the research infrastructure; it is becoming increasingly important in the course of the digital transformation of science.
With our activities, we contribute significantly to the information infrastructure: We provide information to researchers in science and industry worldwide. To this end, we develop very large volumes of patent and research information from a wide variety of sources. For precise research and intelligent analysis of these data, we develop and operate innovative information services and e-research solutions, e.g. for research data management and digital preservation.
We advise our customers so that they can use our services competently and efficiently.
The first priority for us is the quality of our services. In order to maintain and further develop their high level, we conduct research with a focus on new methods of text and data mining and semantic analysis.
Our unique selling proposition: We are a large company in the SME sector and generate significant revenues on the international information market with our products and services. We combine the neutrality, independence and reliability of a public institution with the professionalism of a service provider who has been internationally successful for decades. We see ourselves as a partner for science, industry and politics.
