DIGITAL IST BESSER!

DIGITAL IST BESSER! is a German-language technology and workplace show from virtual7, focused on digital transformation in and around public administration. Its perspective is unusually close to the shop floor. The episodes do not simply announce that AI, DevOps, dashboards, or digital services matter; they follow colleagues as they explain where those ideas show up in projects, teams, events, and internal structures. That makes the show feel more like a recorded office conversation than a polished keynote. The tone is warm and practical. Questions often start plainly, then open into memories, examples, and small disagreements. In the AI episode, the discussion moves from fear and ignorance to specific public-administration use cases, data safety, creativity, and the need for factual debate. In the LouKI7 dashboard episode, a playful AI-versus-Looping-Louie project becomes a conversation about interface clarity, information overload, neural networks, and what belongs on a dashboard. Other episodes turn toward company life. A thirtieth-anniversary conversation with Isabella, Marek, and Stefan looks at long tenure, changing roles, and the habit of questioning old routines. A culture episode with Nora and Fabian talks about trust, courage, growth, feedback, and the difference between being challenged and being overwhelmed. The finance-cluster episode gets into the practical strain of growth: when a unit becomes too large, how communication breaks down, and why a split can be necessary even when it surprises people. Devland 2026 brings a looser field-recording feel, with quick impressions from the Europa-Park setting, candidate conversations, community reunions, dinners, Ramadan, and event fatigue. Across these pieces, the show’s subject is not just technology. It is the human system around technology: colleagues, roles, customers, culture, processes, and the messy work of making public services function better. DIGITAL IST BESSER! fits listeners who like technical conversations with lived context, especially anyone curious about how software teams discuss government digitization when they are not speaking in conference slogans.
