CTO & Co-founder
Serjoscha Düring is CTO and co-founder of Infrared City. A builder at heart, he brings AI into the development process. He studied economics, China studies and urban design in Hamburg, Weimar and Shanghai, researched at the City Intelligence Lab at AIT, the Austrian Institute of Technology, and teaches AI in urbanism at IAAC Barcelona. At Infrared City, he leads the engineering team building the simulation engines at the core of the climate-intelligence layer for cities and buildings.
Speaker’s Sustainability Goals for 2026
Infrared City is the climate-intelligence layer for cities and buildings — physics-based, AI-accelerated, at 1-metre resolution. At the core are our simulation engines — wind, thermal, solar, daylight — scalable on the cloud, delivering in seconds what traditionally took days. We open them through SDK, API and AI-agent skills, so any team can integrate and customize climate intelligence into their own platforms and workflows. Our platform — with multi-step workflows and automated, compliance-grade reports — is live, and live.infrared.city showcases large-scale realtime simulation and climate twins. In 2026 we are bringing this to the cities building fastest — Hong Kong among them.
