Location

Welcome to the HPI d‑school in Potsdam!

Our HPI d-school is located in the heart of Potsdam-Babelsberg, directly on the campus of the Hasso Plattner Institute (HPI). Here you will benefit from a unique environment that fosters creativity, collaboration and technological excellence.

Why Potsdam-Babelsberg?

Potsdam is not only the capital of Brandenburg, but also a city full of history, culture and nature. With its beautiful parks and gardens, impressive palaces and historic buildings, Potsdam offers an inspiring backdrop for learning. The Babelsberg district in particular is known for its film and media history, making it a creative hotspot. The Filmpark is just around the corner and is definitely worth a visit.

Attractive learning atmosphere

Our d-school on the HPI campus is perfect for innovative minds like you. Here you have access to modern, well-equipped rooms specially designed for Design Thinking and creative processes. The close connection to HPI also offers you the opportunity to benefit from a network of leading experts.

The life in Potsdam

The city offers a wealth of leisure activities: whether cycling along the Havel, a visit to the famous Sanssouci Park or a relaxed stroll through the old town. Thanks to the excellent public transport connections to Berlin, you can also be in the heart of the vibrant life of the capital in just 30 minutes - so the metropolis is only a stone's throw away.
