DIGILOGIC unveils co-creation impact laboratories

[divider style=”solid” top=”25″ bottom=”25″][dropcap]D[/dropcap]IGILOGIC has launched 6 Co–Creation Impact Laboratories, a peer–to–peer hands–on experience.

During the laboratories, a series of real African business cases in the Logistics Critical Mile will be
presented and analysed with the support of European and African Digital Innovation Hubs (DIHs)
facilitators.

Participants, techy guys, would–be entrepreneurs and self–employed people, skilled startups, SMEs,
and ICT professionals from any country in the European Union and in Africa – will have the chance to
boost personal skills and develop their professional network through an experience of collaborative
work on digital solutions to answer logistics business needs proposed by the Labs Leader.

DIGILOGIC facilitators, led by Friuli Innovazione, will support the participants with Service Design, Fast
Prototyping, and logistics technologies uptake. Participants will have the chance to refine their
problem–solving attitude and the capability to spotlight the potential of using digital technologies in
the Logistics Critical Mile.

The hands–on methodology and the group work will foster the contamination among different mindsets and backgrounds. Each Lab will last 16 hours and it will be organised in 4 fully remote sessions for 2 weeks. The first Co–Creation Lab will be held between July 11 and July 29 and the applications will open at the end of
May.
