Summary
Julia Kloiber is a civic tech leader and founder with 13 years of experience shaping digital strategy, open data initiatives, and public-interest technology in Germany and beyond. As Co-Founder and Managing Director of Superrr Lab and a Mozilla Fellow, she combines research, storytelling and coalition-building to design more equitable digital futures for governments, NGOs and funders. She co-founded Code for Germany and the Prototype Fund, growing networks that mobilized 1,000+ volunteers across 25 cities and secured millions in public funding for open source projects. Equally comfortable advising policy-makers and building grassroots developer communities, she has a background in media and interaction design (MA New Media and Digital Culture) that informs her human-centered approach. An engaging public speaker and columnist for MIT Technology Review DE, she often surfaces lesser-known tensions between civic tech idealism and practical governance constraints.
