How will we live in the future? Or to put it another way, how do we actually want to live in the future? How do we want to travel, live, shop or work? What are we afraid of and what do we dream of?

In the future podcast "How Germany ticks", representative results from the Foundation for Future Studies' almost 50 years of research are presented, analysed and discussed on a weekly basis. And, of course, a forecast for the future is also given!

Ayaan Güls, Press Officer of the Foundation for Future Studies, and Ulrich Reinhardt, Scientific Director of the Foundation and professor in Germany and the USA, always look ahead with confidence and optimism and encourage people to look to the future.
