Meet the people behind the project

Meet the people behind the project

We are 12 partners from all over Europe, representing various backgrounds. From Gothenburg to Sofia, from institutes to universities and NGO:s — our project brings together voices across the EU. Together, we are creating an inclusive, AI intelligent Local Digital Twin that empowers cities and communities across Europe to design sustainable and people-centred urban environments.

Our project is led by Lindholmen Science Park, through the programs Xperience Next and Visual Arena.

Other project partners include the City of Gothenburg, Göteborg & Co, Our Normal, RISE Research Institutes of Sweden, Future Memories, Virtuell Design AB (all from Sweden), The Point Labs (Romania), Younite (Finland), University of Twente (The Netherlands), Iceberg Plus (Romania), and GATE Institute (Bulgaria).

Associated partners are Kungsbacka kommun, School of Business, Economics and Law at the University of Gothenburg, Västra Götalandsregionen, Yrgo, and the Digital Twin Cities Centre at Chalmers University of Technology.

This is just the beginning of our 30-month long project. This film gives you a glimpse of the people, passion, and purpose behind the project. This is only the beginning!
