TUD launches new intranet: efficient collaboration for employees!

The new intranet of the Technical University of Dresden (TUD) was officially launched on August 5, 2025. This platform serves as an internal communication and cooperation platform for all employees of the university. The launch of the intranet marks an important step towards modernizing and increasing efficiency in internal communication. The intranet bundles information, addresses interfaces and connects different teams to promote exchange and collaboration.

How tu-dresden.de reported, TUD employees can now access basic information sorted by topic. In the coming weeks and months, further content from the existing internal web area will be transferred to the intranet. This ensures that employees always have access to current and relevant information.

Confluence integration

A central component of the new intranet is the direct integration of the collaboration software Confluence. This enables efficient collaboration in teams and projects. According to atlassian.com Users can significantly optimize their team collaboration through Confluence. This makes it possible to integrate Microsoft Teams to create and share Confluence pages directly within this environment. Comments in Confluence can also be answered via Slack without having to change the communication platform.

In addition, Confluence offers numerous document management functions. For example, users can insert Google Drive links or upload and synchronize Microsoft Office documents. This reduces the need to switch back and forth between different applications and promotes seamless collaboration. Integrations are also available for creating and editing diagrams and charts, which makes it easier to present information visually.

Futuristic perspectives for internal communication

The introduction of the new intranet represents significant progress in the TUD's digital landscape and corresponds to the trend of revolutionizing internal communication and collaboration tools.

The right selection of internal communications software solutions not only promotes collaboration, but also ensures that security and data protection are maintained.

With the support of TUD Rector Prof. Ursula Staudinger, who thanked the employees for their participation in creating the content, a call is being made for active participation in the Intranet project team. Employees are encouraged to transfer content from their own areas to further improve the platform. Department 7 for Communication and Marketing is leading the project, with Kristina Richert as contact person.

The new intranet not only represents a significant development step for the TUD, but also offers an outlook on future opportunities and challenges in internal communication within educational institutions.
