Urs Gasser

Professor of Public Policy, Governance, and Innovative Technology; Munich School of Politics & Public Policy and TUM School of Social Sciences and Technology

My research focuses on the societal and regulatory implications of new technologies such as cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and quantum technology. I am working closely with the WEF, the OECD, and UNICEF, among others, as an advisor on various topics related to the digital transformation. I was as a member of the German Federal Government's Digital Council and currently serve on the Colombian President's Commission of Experts on AI. At present, I am also Rector of the Munich School of Politics & Public Policy (HfP) and Dean of the TUM School of Social Sciences and Technology.
