Descrizione del progetto
Una spinta digitale per i settori sotto-digitalizzati
Il settore sanitario, quello agroalimentare e quello manifatturiero sono fondamentali per la società e l’economia, ma faticano a tenere il passo con i progressi tecnologici. In questo contesto, il progetto DIATOMIC, finanziato dall’UE, creerà un ecosistema sostenibile per stimolare la digitalizzazione. In particolare, saranno condotti tre esperimenti applicativi transfrontalieri specifici per settore, che consentiranno agli utilizzatori delle tecnologie, agli utenti finali e agli sviluppatori di soluzioni intelligenti di conoscere i vantaggi concreti della digitalizzazione. Condotto da tre poli di innovazione digitale interconnessi, l’ecosistema risponderà a esigenze specifiche del settore, fornendo applicazioni avanzate di produzione e ingegneria e di integrazione di sistemi intelligenti a una importante base di clienti. Promuovendo partenariati, fornendo supporto tecnologico e finanziando esperimenti di applicazione, il progetto intende stimolare un cambiamento trasformativo in questi settori vitali.
Obiettivo
DIATOMIC aims to establish a sustainable ecosystem to facilitate AME/SSI-based innovation in the health, agrifood and manufacturing sectors, all of which are under-digitized and of prime importance for society and the economy.
DIATOMIC ecosystem draws from the advanced technological excellence of the DIATOMIC consortium to execute three sector-specific cross-border Application Experiments to help technology adopters, end-users and smart solution developers realise tangible benefits of digitization. In-house excellence in dissemination is leveraged to ignite further ideation of digital products, processes and business models from non-tech SMEs and midcaps; thus promoting interest in experimentation with AME and SSI.
At the heart of the ecosystem, three interconnected sector-specific Digital Innovation Hubs (DIH) pulsate to accelerate digitization in-beat with sector-specific needs, and to enable delivery of AME/SSI based applications to a critical mass of customers. DIHs first assist non-tech companies to couple with counterparts across the EU with complementary technological competencies. Then, acting as a one-stop-shop, they offer the teams (i) strong technological support to accelerate design, development, prototyping and manufacturing and (ii) business support to develop solutions with a robust product/market fit.
Two open calls are organised to attract and select the best of the best consortia, consisting of tech adopters, tech providers and Competence Centers. Application Experiments will be funded to generate AME/SSI-based products, processes and business models with strong market potential.
DIATOMIC delivers the structure and three instances of sector-specific DIHs, +75 Competence Center, +20 application experiments, along with a validated ecosystem sustainability plan.
DIATOMIC consortium is a fusion between: technological research centers (IPA, IPN and BIOS), CCs (INTRA, LIB and SYN), innovation consulting (INO), SMEs community (F6S) and investors (FASTT).
