What former fellows say

Quote

"The Innovation Fellowship Programme helped me to understand bureaucratic constraints in detail from an internal perspective and in practice. At the same time, I had the space, resources and support to learn experimentally how changes can be initiated, implemented and anchored in an administrative context. Participating in the IFP was a great benefit for me."

"I was given a lot of freedom to develop solutions independently, but I was always able to discuss them with experts. The IFP also proved to be an important milestone for my future career. After completing the IFP, I was able to start a tenure track professorship at the BFH in the field of 'AI for the Public Sector'."

The Innovation Fellowship Programme enabled me to gain a wide range of insights into the Federal Administration, its structures and working methods within a year, thanks in particular to the close networking among the fellows. The considerable freedom I had in tackling the challenge allowed me to further expand my specialist knowledge and develop a deeper understanding of the current and future challenges facing the Federal Administration.

I had the opportunity to support fedpol in developing a georeferenced alarm solution for protected persons, including members of the Federal Council. The collaboration was inspiring and gave me the opportunity to get to know the Federal Administration from the inside. At the same time, I was able to work independently on a meaningful issue. I particularly appreciated the open exchange of knowledge, the team's willingness to embrace innovative approaches and the broad support from management.
