Important results from the project
The project did not meet its original objective to submit a proposal to the Horizon Europe call, as a coordinator could not be secured.
The work resulted in three new tracks where the project idea and partnership were reused: 1) Proposal to Vinnova (DT-IT Digital Twins with Chalmers). 2) LoI with Business Finland and Aalto University to finance/establish a Swedish-Finnish Digital Twin-collaboration. 3) Positioning in a new Horizon Europe-konsortium.
Expected long term effects
The long-term effects are focused on strengthening Nordic industrial competitiveness. The project has established a Swedish-Finnish "digital twinning" structure to drive large-scale application of Digital Twins among industrial companies, leading to increased efficiency, interoperability and contributing to a sustainable transition. The positioning in the new Horizon-Europe-konsortiet also ensures a future entry for Swedish industrial needs into Europe´s leading research in AI and robotics.
Approach and implementation
The project ran over an intensive summer period, which required frequent meetings to develop an industrially driven project idea with academic and industrial partners. The collaboration went well, but external factors (ensuring coordinator for Horizon Europe-ansökan) made submission to the EU-call not possible. However, the project was successfully developed by re-channeling the results to three other applications (Vinnova, Business Finland, Horizon Europe) to enable continuations.
