Unboxing The Future of AI and Bureaucracy

Bureaucracy is often seen as the enemy of growth: slow, rigid, outdated.

But at its core, it’s what keeps society fair and functioning.

The problem? It’s still running on paper logic in a digital world.

At the next Unboxing The Future Live, we bring together three voices shaping how AI, policy, bureaucracy and innovation will coexist:

• Ina Remmers: Founder of Rulemapping Group and Co-founder of Nebenan.de.
  Ina is redefining bureaucracy itself, turning laws into machine-readable logic that makes decision-making faster, fairer, and innovation-ready.
• Bastian Hosan: Journalist communicating change.
  Covering AI, civic tech, smart cities and the digital state, Bastian brings a journalist’s sharp eye to how policy and technology actually meet in practice, and what happens when they don’t.
• Ann-Kathrin Kornemann: Innovation Project Manager at CityLab Berlin.
  Working at the intersection of research, governance, and urban innovation, Ann-Kathrin translates bold ideas into real experiments for smarter, more connected cities.

Together, they’ll explore what happens when AI meets bureaucracy, and how to rethink the systems that run the rules.

Expect:

• Honest and unfiltered conversation (not a panel)
  Real insights from leaders working where innovation meets public systems, founders, policymakers, and thinkers who are rewriting the rules from inside the machine.
• Concrete examples of transformation.
  From machine-readable laws to smart public services, learn how AI is already reshaping bureaucracy, and what Berlin can do to lead the way.
• The truth about innovation in government.
  What’s really slowing down digital transformation? What can startups, journalists, and public sector innovators do together to speed it up?
• A conversation led by the audience.
  Your questions shape the discussion. Jump in with your thoughts, questions, and experiences. This isn’t a panel, it’s a live experience.
• And of course, the Unboxing The Future live experience.
  Expect the unexpected. We use entertainment to turn complex topics into memorable and accessible knowledge.

"The future depends on how fast we can turn ideas into systems that work."
Ina Remmers
