Project Involvement

  • Resilience by orchestrating citizen-driven innovation through digital platforms in urban-rural constellations

    (Third Party Funds Group – Overall project)

    Term: 1. January 2024 - 31. December 2026

    Abstract

    The research project investigates how theresilience of municipalities can be improved by orchestrating citizen-driveninnovation. Through the transdisciplinary involvement of civil society, municipalities can benefit from innovation impulses or hand over parts of theinnovation process to civil society to be more agile in responding to crisesand challenges, while at the same time enabling civil society to participatemore by strengthening its own capacities. The aim is therefore to explore howan open digital innovation platform for municipalities should be designed sothat innovators from civil society can organize themselves there at a lowthreshold to jointly develop solutions in crisis situations (possibly incooperation with the municipality). As the problem areas of socio-environmentalchallenges in the context of sustainability (e.g. mobility, climate change,food supply, local recreation, housing, or education) in urban contexts tend torequire a regional level in the sense of subsidiarity, another focus of theproject is the interweaving of urban and rural areas as socially andfunctionally complementary spaces for the common good. In the design andprovision of such a platform, the project also considers issues of dataprotection and the provision of such a platform, e.g. as a public service.Through the permanent and sustainable establishment of a digital platform fornetworking civil society actors in urban-rural constellations, the project aimsto support municipalities in orchestrating citizen-driven innovations and tostrengthen the resilience of a municipality's society and its spatial interdependencies.

  • New workspace concepts for future research at the School of Business, Economics and Society

    (FAU Funds)

    Term: 7. February 2023 - 31. December 2023
    Abstract

    The research project „New spatial concepts for the research of tomorrow at the School of Business, Economics and Society” aims to design and evaluate a new collaborative spatial concept for scientific work at universities. To achieve this, existing office spaces at the School of Business, Economics and Society of Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg will be transformed into activity-based workspaces. The design will be tailored to meet the unique requirements of knowledge work and research at universities, while also taking into account possible restrictions due to structural conditions. By redesigning the office space, the project seeks to increase employee satisfaction, motivation and productivity. In this way, the university will be able to position itself as an attractive employer and a hub for generating innovations in the future.

  • IIP-Ecosphere - Next Level Ecosphere for Intelligent Industrial Production

    (Third Party Funds Single)

    Term: 1. January 2020 - 30. September 2023
    Funding source: Bundesministerium für Wirtschaft und Technologie (BMWi)
    URL: https://www.iip-ecosphere.eu
    Abstract

    In IIP-Ecosphere, we develop an ecosystem to reduce obstacles in the implementation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications in production and its related processes with the aim to foster intelligent production systems. A framework will be established for

    • the unconstrained introduction of AI applications in SMEs
    • new, AI-driven services and data exchange
    • true AI-driven process chains
    • cooperation of diverse stakeholders
    • increased compatibility of systems

    The “Chair of Information Systems, Innovation and Value Creation” primarily leverages its expertise in the areas of innovation, stakeholder integration, service systems engineering and business model design to support this undertaking. During the project, researcher of the chair are mainly responsible for the development of business models accompanying AI utilization and support in innovation.

  • Digitization of the central transfer procedure for temporary employment

    (Third Party Funds Single)

    Term: 29. July 2019 - 31. December 2021
    Funding source: Industrie
    Abstract

    The main objective of the project “Digitization of the central transfer procedure for temporary employment” is the evaluation of a software that enables the digital admission process of temporary contract workers. Within this project the functionality of the interfaces, in particular with regard to the impact of digitization on safety and health at work, economic efficiency, the time required and the transparency of the provided software solution are being evaluated. The research project focuses on how the new software influences different work practices in a day to day environment. It distinguishes between the tasks of the company that receives the temporary contractors and the agency that provides the contractors.
