The main objective of the Digital4jobs project and related research activities is to empirically investigate how the concepts of Open Labs and Open Source Appropriate Technologies [OSAT] can contribute to technological empowerment of local people and bottom-up development of the economy.
Not only since the beginning of the corona pandemic has the introduction of digital educational elements profoundly influenced the educational process and the respective structures in learning institutions.
The Laboratory of Production Engineering (LaFT) has been supporting research and teaching with its own Open Lab at Helmut Schmidt University in Hamburg since December 2016.
The central goal of the project is to promote bottom-up innovation and interdisciplinary research in Tunisia through open fabrication and open-source hardware laboratories as part of the German government's Africa strategy.
The New Production Institute of the Manufacturing Technology Laboratory, headed by Prof. Dr. Jens P. Wulfsberg and Dr.-Ing. Tobias Redlich, supports the research and development of Hamburg into a Fab City and is supported in this by the Center for Digitization and Technology Research of the German Armed Forces (dtec.bw).
As part of the interdisciplinary research project Fab City, we are establishing a new type of urban value creation by means of decentralized and open production workshops (so-called open labs) in the Hamburg metropolitan region.
In order to bundle and expand startup support for startups from science in a structured manner, universities and research institutions from the Hamburg metropolitan region have joined forces with institutions from business and politics in the project "Startup Port - Knowledge-based Entrepreneurship in the Hamburg Metropolitan Region".
How do you detect fundamental changes at an early stage? This is precisely the goal of the Value Creation Radar project - AI-supported foresight for the detection of signals relevant to value creation.
