Behind the Scenes

The Nürnberg Digital Festival began as a community project, and we remain true to our roots. If you’d like to get involved and contribute as a volunteer, feel free to reach out to us. In addition to a small core team, many dedicated volunteers from the Nürnberg metropolitan region support NUEDIGITAL. They help with tasks in areas such as public relations, design & film, website & technology, storage & logistics, and as writers for the NUEDIGITAL blog.
