Organisation
The httc e.V. is an association registered at Darmstadt Local Court.
The purpose of the association is to promote science and research, education and training in the field of multimedia technology. Until the end of 2021, the httc e.V. was based at the Technical University of Darmstadt at the Department of Multimedia Communication under the direction of Professor Ralf Steinmetz and cooperated closely with the department in all areas.
From November 2021 to October 2023, Prof Arnd Steinmetz was Chairman of the Board of httc e.V.
This resulted in closer cooperation with Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences (h_da).
Matthias Hemmje took over the chairmanship in October 2023; existing collaborations will be continued.
Thanks to a lean internal structure and the association’s cooperation with its members, top-class expertise and employees and state-of-the-art infrastructure are available.
The httc e.V. is managed by an elected board of directors. The Managing Director is responsible for the management of the organisation.
The httc e.V. is largely financed by project funds. It also has access to participation fees for events, membership fees and sponsorship.
