The INDUSAC Platform is now available for students and researchers to create co-creation teams and solve companies’ challenges within 4-8 weeks. More information here.
The INDUSAC project has officially launched the INDUSAC platform, an initiative to reshape the landscape of industry-academia collaboration.
What is INDUSAC?
INDUSAC, short for "Industry-Academia Collaborations", is more than a project. It is a vision about driving innovation, fostering collaboration and advancing industries by connecting academia, industry, and the brightest student minds.
The new platform will connect and help to collaborate with industry professionals, academics and students together. The platform will also gather quick challenges to solve in a brand new methodology based on human-centered co-creation:
- INDUSAC's challenge-driven approach means we don't just talk about innovation; we make it happen. INDUSAC's Quick Challenges will be designed to tackle real-world problems head-on with a focus on rapid and practical solutions.
- Human-Centered Co-Creation: At INDUSAC, the best solutions are considered to come from diverse minds working together. The co-creation mechanism brings together experts from industry and academia, ensuring a wide range of perspectives and talents are harnessed for maximum impact.
Why INDUSAC matters
- Innovation in Action: We're not just thinking about the future, but creating it. Our collaborative projects will yield innovative solutions that are making a real impact on industries.
- Learning and Growth: INDUSAC provides a nurturing ground for students to gain hands-on experience, learn from the best in the field, and become the leaders of tomorrow.
- Connecting the Dots: By bridging the gap between industry and academia, we're fostering a new era of knowledge sharing, collaboration, and growth.
