MIRMI reached crucial milestones thanks to the continuous commitment of all its members and the support of
the MIRMI administrative team in 2021. Thanks to the Science Board, which presented its strategy to the TUM
President in spring and also advocated for incentives for the MIRMI community on this occasion, MIRMI will be
able to award our own seed funds for integrative research for the first time in the history of the Institute. The
double-counting of the third-party funds (raised by MIRMI PIs) at MIRMI and Home School is another one of
these milestones. Beyond that, some PIs jointly launched the next lighthouse initiative KI.FABRIK in the field of
"Future of Work" as well as the research hub “6G-Life” and the strategic LMU-TUM forum “OneMunich”. Also for
the first time since MIRMI was founded, many of our members actively joined us at the premiere of the fully digital
munich_i as part of the automatica sprint, including a high-tech summit, virtual trade fair, and Robothon - to be
continued in 2022! All of this is compiled in the first edition of a MIRMI annual report.
