Vision
We believe in a society that shapes digital transformation with the help of games and acknowledges games as an enrichment to its culture.
Mission
We build bridges between the world of games and political and social institutions in Germany. As an ambassador for games, we illustrate what can be achieved by applying the ideas, mechanics, and technologies behind games for the common good.
Strategic goals
We set topics, highlight opportunities, and promote ideas to demonstrate the potential of games in the fields of culture, education, and research. We do this by developing new and innovative formats, events, and research approaches.
Further information
Our image brochure provides a more detailed view of our topical focus and our work, as well as of our understanding of the societal importance of games.

Our advisory board helps to shape our work as a foundation. It consists of representatives from the areas of education, society, the protection of minors, culture, media, politics, pedagogy, administration, and scientific research. The advisory board works to ensure our independence and transparency and acts as a multiplier for our projects and formats. The institutions represented are responsible for a variety of projects in the areas of games culture, development, and research, as well as the protection of minors and media education.
Until the new Managing Director of the Foundation for Digital Games Culture takes up their work at the beginning of August, game Managing Director Felix Falk will formally take over the interim management from June 1, 2024 and manage the foundation together with the two division heads Niels Boehnke and Benjamin Rostalski.
