While our first German office will be based in Munich, our German team will be supporting businesses, developers, partners, and academic institutions all over the country. Having a local presence also strengthens our collaboration with Germany’s federal and regional governments, helping to ensure AI’s benefits are distributed responsibly across Germany and advance nationwide economic growth and competitiveness.

Dr. Fabian Mehring, Bavarian State Minister for Digital Affairs, welcomed our opening, stating:

“The vision of our state government is becoming reality: we are systematically developing Bavaria into the digital powerhouse of Europe. Welcoming OpenAI, the global star of the AI revolution, to our state capital is another milestone on Munich’s path to becoming the German tech capital. ChatGPT has changed the world and is now also at home in our unique ecosystem at the Isar. From now on, AI innovations ‘made in Bavaria’ will help shape the digital revolution. In the heart of Bavaria, tradition and innovation are merging to create a bright future. All the more reason to say a heartfelt ‘Servus’ to Germany’s ‘home for high-tech’ and welcome to Team Bavaria, OpenAI!”

We’re excited to help Germany seize the AI opportunity and are actively hiring. Interested in joining our growing team? Explore open roles here⁠.
