Descrizione del progetto
Far nascere e crescere nuove idee
A causa dei cambiamenti climatici, le nazioni e le istituzioni di tutto il mondo sono in cerca di nuove idee e soluzioni che contribuiscano alla transizione ecologica e alla lotta a tali mutazioni. Tuttavia, è possibile che molte nuove idee e tecnologie promettenti siano affossate dalla mancanza di visibilità e dalla scarsità di finanziamenti o sostegno. Il progetto FORGING, finanziato dall’UE, fornirà una soluzione a questo problema sviluppando una metodologia innovativa mirata a supportare la crescita e l’espressione di nuove idee e tecnologie fin dall’inizio. Il progetto, con l’aiuto di esperti, individuerà a tal fine tecnologie in fase iniziale, ne valuterà necessità e appetibilità e, infine, supporterà il loro sviluppo.
Obiettivo
Technological breakthroughs empowered by enabling technologies hold a transformation potential that can be funneled to address industrial and societal grand challenges, like greening and digitalisation. To exploit this transformative potential, the innovation journey that leads new emerging technologies to their market-uptake shall embed since its early value-sensitive considerations, such as environmental and societal implications.
With FORGING we propose a new methodology based on a value-sensitive innovation journey that breaks linear innovation trajectories to stimulate new technological visions and pathways attentive to the environment and society, and human-centred in alignment with Industry 5.0. technological frameworks. The value-sensitive innovation journey will be deployed in three phases: the technological uncovering with tech experts from academia and industry to detect early signals of emerging technologies; the societal confluence exploring the desirability and societal impact, and implications of novel technologies; the full-fledged co-creation opening to the broader community to develop concrete use cases for tech uptake. We will develop 6 Technological Pathways to transfer ideas and help industry navigate through issues related to the absorption and deployment of the use cases.
FORGING methodology will be implemented by catalysing stakeholders’ community with 600 active members, from academia to industry, to CSS, to policy makers and to the broader society. We aim to organise 24 co-creation sessions, consultations with 20 policy bodies, 6 scenario workshops and Tech. and Innovation campaigns to drive tech. adoption.
The FORGING Playbook and Toolbox will gather a set of facilitation guidance and materials for exploration, reflection, co-creation and evaluation of emerging technologies. These assets, jointly with the FORGING community, will sustain FORGING as a new flagship initiative on emerging enabling technologies.
