CORE INNOVATION CENTER
CORE Innovation Centre is a non-profit RTO, subsidiary of CORE Innovation & Technology OE, aiming to provide individuals, industries and companies with opportunities to reach their true potential, to make industries smarter and greener, more sustainable and more socially inclusive. Industry 4.0 is where CORE IC chooses to focus its research and innovation efforts. Advances in a range of technologies i.e. IoT, big data, machine and deep learning, edge and cloud computing are deployed to maximise the potential of both people and entities in multiple sectors.
About the partnership
In THESEUS, CORE-IC leads T2.6 which deals with the digital plans and data requirements for each pilot and T3.4 which includes the development of prediction algorithm of resource logistic. In parallel it participates in the development of digital platform, the characterization of value chains and the KPIs definition as well as in all dissemination and exploitation activities. Finally, CORE-IC is involved in all the pilots of the project.
