Imagine taking old-school artisan skills and giving them a high-tech makeover. This work blends traditional hand-making techniques with digital tools and data to make products more eco-friendly. It's like updating a family recipe using modern kitchen tech to feed more people without wasting ingredients.
Traditional craft businesses struggle to modernize and prove their sustainability to consumers. They lack the digital tools and data analytics needed to compete in a green economy.
An open source and open data platform for climate impact data and a set of immersive technology applications for craft revitalization.
If you are a sustainable clothing brand dealing with high environmental footprints — this project developed data and LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) tools that enable new sustainable business models.
If you are an immersive tech developer dealing with a lack of cultural content — this project developed artistic and performative applications using immersive technologies to revitalize craft legacies.
If you are a micro-enterprise artisan dealing with limited market reach — this project developed an open source and open data platform to share climate impact data and grow your business.
Based on available project data, specific pricing or cost structures for the tools are not provided, as the project focuses on open source and open data platforms.
The project tests its approach across 4 pilot clusters in DK, ES, FI, and RO, aiming to replicate these results in other ecosystems via EIT Culture and Creativity KIC centers.
Based on available project data, the project emphasizes an open source and open data platform for sharing climate impact data.
The project connects EU ethics, policy, and legal frameworks to regional ecosystems to provide a basis for good policy regarding the green transition.
The project runs from 2024-01-01 to 2026-12-31, indicating a multi-year development and testing cycle.
The consortium is diverse, consisting of 11 partners across 7 countries. It has a strong practical lean with a 27% industry ratio, including 3 industry partners and 1 SME, balanced by 4 universities and 3 other organizations, ensuring a bridge between academic research and commercial application.
