CATCH ATMIND – EDIH

Descrizione

Il progetto CATCH atMIND (advanCed digitAl TeChnology Hub for the Life Sciences at MIND), Finanziato dall’Unione europea – Next Generation EU, ha ricevuto dalla Commissione Europea l’indicazione di qualità “Seal of Excellence”, che ha permesso l’accesso ai finanziamenti nazionali per i Poli digitali a valere sui fondi del Ministero delle Imprese e del Made in Italy (di cui al Decreto Ministeriale del 10 marzo 2023 su fondi PNRR Missione: 4 – Componente: 2 – Investimento: 2.3).

LEF, come partner del progetto CATCH atMIND-EDIH, effettuerà servizi per circa 500 mila euro presso PMI e PA della regione Friuli Venezia Giulia per supportare percorsi di trasformazione Lean e Digitale finalizzati all’eccellenza operativa in ambito sanitario.

Obiettivi del progetto

Il progetto CATCH atMIND nel settore della salute digitale si basa sull’esperienza di partner accademici e industriali di alto livello nel cuore dell’industria sanitaria italiana, la Regione Lombardia. Si basa sull’idea che la costruzione dell’ecosistema sanitario digitale del futuro sia un viaggio il cui punto di partenza sono i dati. CATCH atMIND offre un portafoglio di servizi basati sulla raccolta sicura di biodati e sull’analisi in silico attraverso modelli AI-ML, fornendo nuove conoscenze e generando valore di business per gli ecosistemi sanitari italiani ed europei.

Fornisce, in un contesto realistico ma virtualizzato, servizi digitali che supportano l’innovazione di prodotti e servizi nell’intero ecosistema sanitario. I servizi di test-before-invest di CATCH atMIND coprono l’intero settore sanitario, supportando la formazione esperienziale e lo sviluppo del business in tutto l’ecosistema e facilitando l’accesso ai finanziamenti per le nuove iniziative imprenditoriali.

Attraverso i servizi di sviluppo aziendale e di accesso ai finanziamenti, CATCH atMIND aiuta le aziende esistenti a crescere e ad aumentare il tasso di successo delle iniziative imprenditoriali innovative nel settore della salute digitale, ma anche a esplorare nuovi modelli di business e ad accedere ai finanziamenti a livello locale ed europeo. L’adozione del portafoglio di servizi di CATCH atMIND diffonderà le buone pratiche per la gestione sicura dei dati biologici e per l’impiego dell’AI-ML nei settori farmaceutico e sanitario, trasformando profondamente l’innovazione sanitaria, il suo modello operativo e l’esperienza dell’utente/paziente.

CATCH atMIND sarà parte attiva della rete europea di hub sanitari, in quanto membro fondatore di un corridoio che riunisce hub di innovazione simili provenienti da tutta Europa.

AIPRESTO

AIPRESTO

Description

AIPRESTO is one of the winners of the first call (cascade funding) of the H2020 project “AI REGIO” dedicate to Industry 5.0 and collaborative intelligence solutions based on artificial intelligence.

The project is developed by three partners: Intermek srl (project leader), Video Systems srl and LEF, as the Digital Innovation Hub Alto Adriatico.

Objective of the project

The goal of AIPRESTO is to develop an automatic visual inspection system applied on Computerized Numerical Control (CNC) machine tools.

This project will allow Intermek to discover the full potential of artificial intelligence by working together with an experienced provider of machine vision, artificial intelligence and robotics technologies – Video Systems – and testing new services in the laboratories of DIH Alto Adriatico – LEF.

The project will develop all the phases for developing a new visual inspection system, from the design of the model to prototype development, testing and field experimentation.

Role of LEF

LEF will make its laboratories available to Intermek and Video Systems, which will conduct the testing and experimentation. In addition, it is leading the communication and dissemination activities.

AI REGIO is funded by the EU Framework Program for Research and Innovation Horizon 2020 (Grant Agreement No. 952003) and involves Comet clusters.

Duration: 8 months (01.06.2022- 31.01.2023)

TechMOlogy

TechMOlogy

Description

LEF is a partner in the TechMOlogy project “New technologies and cross-border networks for mobility” funded by the Interreg V-A Italy-Slovenia Cooperation Program 2014-2020.

The project aims to strengthen the mobility supply chain in the cross-border region, with a focus on businesses that are failing to meet the digital challenge: micro and small firms and craft businesses. The key enabling technologies (KETs) of Industry 4.0, on the other hand, can bring about a strategic and organizational change useful to stimulate, even in these firms, the development of new products and services.

The goal of TechMOlogy is to close the gap between industry leaders and their suppliers, making the latter more robust, better organized and capable of positioning themselves as partners in innovation projects.

To achieve this goal, TechMOlogy deploys the following main activities:

    • 4 demonstration events, to present applications of 4.0 technologies in the automotive sector;
    • 3 events dedicated to craft businesses and professionals for service innovation with the design thinking approach;
    • industrial challenges, in which large companies operating in the mobility sectors stimulate the community of craft businesses, professionals and suppliers to identify answers to real problems through original applications of Industry 4.0 technologies, using the laboratories provided by the partners.

 

Role of LEF

LEF will be responsible for communicating the project outcomes and will organize events to disseminate the results achieved to the public and to involve all stakeholders in the activities – such as craft businesses, professionals, and trade associations.
