This project has received funding from the European Union’s Digital Europe Programme under grant agreement No 101083691
The project is coordinated by Mälardalen University, in collaboration with MITC and RISE.
ShiftLabs is one of the European Digital Innovation Hubs established in Europe. It is one of four Swedish hubs awarded EDIH status and a “Seal of Excellence”. This project´s goal is to strengthen the Swedish manufacturing industry, specifically SMEs, as this is a category of companies that need extra support in the transformation of production and in adaption of new digital technologies.
The hub consists four already established and mature technology centres: MITC in Mälardalen, SIILab in Gothenburg, ASSAR in Skövde and LeanCenter & Södertälje Science Park in Södertälje, Stockholm. These centres are accompanied in the consortium by RISE and EIT Manufacturing who provides services and facilities at a national level.
Utilizing its wide and specific expertise in digital technologies and digital transformation, including testbeds, data centres, and change management, ShiftLabs supports SMEs with their individual needs related to technologies such as robotics, artificial intelligence, cyber security, and high performance computing. Technologies in combination with the training, education and research resources make ShiftLabs a national resource and well-integrated part of the Swedish innovation system.
