Single day event dedicated to new technologies and their role in Genoese companies where DIH Liguria, Liguria Digitale, the University of Genoa, GGallery, IIT and ITS-ICT collaborated together.

The central theme was the IoT and Arduino technology, one of the world leaders in the production of development boards at the base of IoT technologies.

Project funded by Fondirigenti which provided for the organization of 10 workshops organized at a local level to engage Ligurian companies on the topic of digitalization.

In-depth meetings focused on Vouchers for innovation consulting services in order to support the technological and digital transformation processes of SMEs and business networks through the introduction of managerial positions in companies capable of implementing the enabling technologies provided for by the National Business Plan 4.0.

Networking initiative promoted by Confindustria Genoa together with Digital Innovation Hub Liguria about the Smart Factory, preparatory to the Confindustria National Connext matching event.

Connext Genoa is aimed at presenting new technology solutions and B2B meetings to promote knowledge and the introduction of tools that can accelerate innovation processes for all companies, whether involved in manufacturing or services.

Schedule for the day:

• Morning: eight parallel sessions, centred on the illustration of enabling technologies 4.0, developed by Ligurian companies (in Italy or abroad).

One of our objectives is to stimulate and maintain active contacts between all the players of the Ligurian innovation ecosystem, in order to fulfil our mission.

The network of relationships activated by DIH Liguria is constantly evolving, involving people as well as public and private bodies where study, research or work is carried out.

• People currently involved in the network: 1.384
• Bodies currently involved in the network 916

Within the network, subjects operating both in the demand and supply of technology are able to freely interact.

In their relations, information is exchanged, ideas and opportunities are evaluated, and projects of common interest are defined.

Participation in the network is free and can be accessed by means of different channels.

The Association's newsletter is sent weekly to the DIH Liguria network and contains:

In its second edition, the international artificial intelligence exposition C1A0 2020-21 provides for a series of both online and in-person events in the context of AI related to Climate Change.

The event, initiated by the Region of Liguria with the coordination of Liguria Digitale, will be implemented through events involving start-ups, companies, and other entities with the goal not only of presenting and disseminating scientific information, but also supporting production development, with effects on local employment by attracting new companies to make investments in Liguria.

DIH Liguria participates in the steering committee and provides support in publicizing the activities.

The 2021 edition of Connext, an exhibition and industrial partnership event organized by the Confindustria System where national and international companies will set up B2B meetings, will be held on 2 and 3 December.

The key topics of the 2021 edition will be:

– Smart Factory.
– The cities of the future.
– Sustainable planet.
– The person at the centre of progress.

Given the participation of Ligurian companies during the last edition, DIH Liguria asked the organizers of the event to set up a dedicated area for the region in which Ligurian companies can have greater visibility through individual stands.

The aim is to highlight and communicate the existence of a "Ligurian innovation ecosystem", while simultaneously ensuring the visibility of individual companies and making the promotion of their products and services during the networking phase more efficient.

Training is the main tool for adapting the world of work and, more generally, society to changes in development models and the transformation of economies. In particular, accepting the digital transition that contemporary societies are experiencing is paramount: investments in human resources and qualified skills increase the competitiveness of companies and make it easier to cope with economic shocks.

The scope of the study of the supply and demand regarding digital skills in Liguria aims to:

• make the Region a relevant player in the national and European arena in terms of the digital skills of its workforce and citizens;
• identify the digital skills that can be the subject of training;
• identify the subjects, public and private, who provide training for the purposes of the digital transition;
• research new teaching models and places for training (e.g. the growing number of academies).

As part of the "Strategic Initiatives" promoted by Fondirigenti, an analysis of the needs for the use of artificial intelligence and blockchain has been published. Sistemi Formativi Confindustria responded to the notice by involving the Confindustria DIH network. DIH Liguria has expressed interest in participating by involving 7 local companies.

DIH Liguria and T&G, a FOS Group company, won the tender in response to the European DIH-World call. The goal of the proposal is the realization of an innovative experiment capable of integrating anthropocentric technologies based on AR, IoT, AI in the solutions currently proposed by T&G to support the worker and allow him greater safety. The experiment will last for 6 months.

The project was launched on October 15, 2021 and provides coaching activities for the business model of DIH Liguria.

The goal of the project is to create a new technology hub in the city of Imperia to favour the economic development of the province, thus becoming a strategic lever for business in IT.

Five common meeting rooms are planned in the hi-tech hub in which companies will be able to hold their meetings. Some spaces will be intended for co-working and also open to workers and professionals.

As part of the "Cerchio Rosso" project, developed by the Municipality of Genoa regarding the areas affected by the reconstruction of the Genoa San Giorgio Bridge, DIH Liguria supports the initiatives of companies and research centres for the construction of the "Green Factory" on the left bank of the Polcevera torrent and, in particular, the feasibility study of an Innovation Park within it.
